Do you remember those blues?
That early twenties something:
revolt against the people that
you are growing up to become.
Do you remember the music
we played to keep us company
in those nights without purpose,
in those days spent drunk and
saluting the sun upon its demise?
Do you remember the letters
of sadness we sent back and forth,
relaying uncertainty in our little
sink-hole of neurosis and boredom?
I wonder when that stopped.
I wonder if I miss it sometimes.
Do you?

The Messiah Complex
You & I,
are a lullaby

We're the deafening *silence

just after the crash
we are moments of happiness
that never last

We're a riddle
that has no answer
we are both the cure
and the cancer

We've read this book
a thousand times, and in our hearts
we both know this fairytale
can never have a happy ending
I wish it did.....

The way his leather boots
stomp the ground
Swaying his black jacket,
Jumping while singing
in a bolt of lightning
making heads spinning around

Most girls love...
How his sweat sparkles in the light
His face, so flawless and bright
the way he winks makes all of them scream
wanting him more in their dreams

When he plucks his strings,
The world rocks
that's what he always bring

It's a high ceiling where
she loves doing her thing
Breathing deeply,
stroking the bow on the strings forming a beautiful reverberation while closing her eyes
The untied hair goes with the beat
This stadium's starting to heat


He stood in the hallway with a smile
Leaning on the white wall
waiting for her to pass by
This is too real, looking dumbfounded talking to a tight-jean-kind of guy

The one from school
which you'll find cool
standing in this hall
making every gals drool

Looking at each other's eyes,
melody and harmony
starting to collide,
not leaving each other's side
Creating a perfect balance of tune for the rest of their lives

And a remix was made.

haha! I'm thinking of Adam Wilde and Mia Hall while writing this. Adam might be a member of a rock band and Mia's a classical cellist but there love is so true that he even made her stay. I remember the part where she asked him 'why me?' he told her that music pulled them together. And everytime she plays, it comes from her heart and he just loves her the way she is. Simple, quiet and gifted it is.
Puffs of thistledown
floating in the air.

Lovely lady
dark blue plums
and the tracery of lace.

'Toot' says a trumpet
to the cry from a clarinet.

Tinkling piano notes
flowing
lilting, rippling, fleeting
fleeing.

Bows, strings and violins.

Echoes of yesterday
fading into grey.

I feel like the inventor of headphones
Has been vastly under-appreciated
These thin wires
Have saved lives,
Sound directly in my ears
Making my blood want to flow
More then I could ever make it
I swear my heart beats
Solely for the sound of my life savior
Known as music
Music helps dull emotions, keeping me from doing stupid things in the heat of strong emotion, wether it's older classical rock or newer rock and alternative bands.
Special thanks to some special bands, pink Floyd, nirvana, the eagles, red hot chilli peppers, blink 182, greenday, avenged sevenfold, Metallica, and some newer bands that I love, black veiled brides, bullet for my valentine, falling in reverse, seether, evanescence, and many more.

Separate yourself,
pull yourself away
from the mundane.

Think deep,
deep
deep thoughts of me.
Split your mind
into a million particles of fantasy.
Let me explode,
explode
explode
into your sweetest
fiery-thoughts.

I want to take you,
make you breathless,
carress you with clairvoyant-love,
so real.

I hear it in her voice,
alluring
she hungers,
a slave
a slave
to this tingling.

I feel it,
I feel it
in her vibes,
it is maddening.

She thirsts,
I hear it,
I hear it
in her raspy throat.
& the remoteness
found in her broken heart,
beats deep,
deep,
deep,
behind the scenes,
she starves.

Give me a reason,
I yearn forever.

I listen to music that matches my mood

The music is like color to my senses

Pink: A  happy tune

Blue: A sad song

Green: A song with lots of energy

  Purple: A song that makes me feel joyful

  Black: A depressing tune that I cry to

  Mixing them would be like a rainbow after the rain

  A mixture of happiness, joy and pain, what remains is mood music, let it play

  

  I sometimes want to play something with a rocking beat, to clean to, to make the time fly by

  Other times I want to really personally connect with the lyrics, when I need to cry

  There are times when I will listen to some oldies, i will not lie to reflect on days gone bye

  There are times I’m in the mood for a country tune

  In my lifetime , i have often sung the blues when the problems of life knocked me down

  I try to brush off the dust and get back up and listen to something I can dance to

  I sometimes don’t want to hear words and like to listen to Classical music, like Bach

  I sometimes will listen to pop
I also like some experimental electronic music
created by a friend
I Love music and may the Love never end

  I sometimes need to unwind after a tough day and listen to something inspirational

  I take off my shoes and my socks and listen and relax or  just  dance  in my own unique way

  I say whatever my mood I Love the tunes and I like to play it Loud and be swept  away

  It is all Mood Music , Let It Play!

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody  

sing your song of flowers
adorning the meadow's lea
sing of their pretty colors
so mirthfully

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody

sing your song of rainbows
arching the skies in lovely canopies
sing of their joyous hues
in a tone so happy

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody

I try to hide the pain I feel inside
and now I can't deny
I know that something's wrong
I know that every night
I want to grab a knife and go inside and
cut my broken heart out

(chorus)
Raise your hands to the sky
let us dance in motion
Raise your hands to the sky
we are all chosen

I think it's kind of funny
I think it's kind of sad
that I am only happy
in the world inside my head
Am I alone with this
or are you just like me
I'm only happy in the place
where all the spirits roam free
Free to be who they really are
In heaven, all the angels dance together
Am I alone with this
or are you just like me

(chorus here)

I walked into the room and asked her what she's doing
little did I know she has been
plotting, planning my destruction evil brewing
And with her evil schemes, she took my life away
How could she do this to me, break my heart on Christmas day
And with her demon wings she took away my dreams
I closed my eyes and cried until I heard a voice inside me sing

(chorus here)

There's so many ways to deal with the problems we have in life
I know that tonight I feel that I'm really ready to be alive

Divine Minds Transcend

There is so much more than what we see
what we fear and choose to perceive
what we're told we must believe
a place that's hard to conceive
a portal to a world beyond belief
Since birth, it waits for you and me
a world beyond a lucid dream
I can tell you where this portal leads
it leads to a cure for humanity
So step onto the magic train
and learn to accept your certain death
For life is nothing more
then fabricated reality

Fate, it seems is not without a sense of irony

I finally broke free of the evil me
it wasn't church that set me free
it wasn't drugs from psychiatry
it wasn't money that made me see
I had to die from this reality
and accept my certain death

It's your turn to consider the facts
now breathe a bit and try to relax
Just one second as I remove the mask
then a crack like a whip and a panic attack
No slack as you slip into a static bath
your vertebrae split you are severed in half
You blast away and never look back
the math adds up so you have to adapt
Half of you is lost and your soul is cracked
the other half swirls in the endless black
As you float down an uncharted path
you finally breakthrough at last

All you thought you knew from life is shattered
as you step into the looking glass

(chorus)
Am I dreaming
I know that you are not alone
Am I dreaming
So many ways to go on
in this life that you know

I close my eyes and look above
I know this time I am not dreaming
I look above and close my eyes
is this the time I will be leaving
I know it's time for DMT
magic in my memory
I know their eyes do look at me
I see the road is never-ending

(chorus here)

Standing on a cliff of diamonds
I look down and see the world
Standing on a cliff of diamonds
I look down and see the world

When I was a little boy
These creatures came to me at night
when I was a little boy
they took me to a place of magic

(chorus here)

I was sleeping in a world of my own
I was grieving and I couldn't let go
of the demons that were inside of me
Am I dreaming when I am awake
DMT

I close my eyes and look above
I know this time I am not dreaming
I look above and close my eyes
is this the time I will be leaving
I know it's time for DMT
magic in my memory
I know their eyes do look at me
I see the road is never-ending

I'm looking at myself through the mirror in my bathroom
I glance up on the shelf and see a box that's painted green
I look inside and find an egg that glowing oh so pretty
I take it to my room and place it on my pillow gently

That night I fell asleep and dreamt of dancing magic mushrooms
and then I woke to see my precious egg was cracked and broken
As bright as two sunrises in the middle of my room these eyes were glowing
what a beautiful surprise I see a baby dragon smiling at me

Do you feel alone in an ocean full of people
Have you always known that earth is not your home
We are both the same together we'll be happy
in a magic place a world we call our own

With one swoop of her wings, she flew above me
then let out a stream of fiery rings
is this happening to me?
This is a gift for a king and queen
am I lost in a magical dream
is this happening to me?

(Chorus)
I ride my dragon through space and time
together we will shine
in a world beneath the ocean
under the nether sky
My dragon you are my friend
together we will fly
to a world of magical wonder
under the nether sky

Have you ever wanted someone you can call a friend
depend on them no matter what
a good companion
always there through thick and thin
My dragon is the only friend
that will be with me to the end
and when that day comes she will lift me
far away
