the wrong one
will find you in peace
and end up leaving you in pieces

only the right one
can find you in pieces
and guide you to peace

tomorrow never comes its always yesterday
sun it dosent shine skies are always grey
since i dont have you life is not the same
all love wants to do is play its heartache game

now my hearts in pieces shattered on the floor
love i used to know is not there anymore
you took all that with you when you walked away
now the sun dont shine the skies are always grey

as i try to sleep the teardrops always start
i wipe away the tears from my broken heart
thinking of the love that i gave to you
the day that we first met when our love was new

life is not the same like it used to be
when you walked away you tore the heart in me
tomorrow never comes its always yesterday
sun it dosent shine the skies are always grey

now my hearts in pieces shattered on the floor
love i used to know is not there anymore
you took all that with you when you walked away
i still think about you every single day.

I sense this world is not what it seems
This sugar-plum Home, some counterfeit dream
Where I might have played
        dress-up in mother's closet
And pretended to be grown -- like her
And beautiful -- like her

Where I might have had enough to eat
        Safe inside a child's sleep
My sparrow's heart tucked in with a story

Tonight I drank the star-studded sky
As the need for why
        dissolved in my cup
Now is enough --

Flocks of birds
Across the morning sky
Tell me
I’m not in the city any more.

We may slip and fall
But, we continue to rise
There is always hope to do better
Together, we keep our eyes on the prize
No one ever said that life would be easy
But, life is worth living
Always put in the effort and energy
Press forward and do good things

They Say the Prisoner...

With references to Article 58, Senator McCarthy, and Casablanca

He’s one of them
That is, he was
And now he’s dead

If he’s not safe
Then you’re not safe
It only takes
An accusation

They have a list
It’s on the ‘net
You’re on the list
You’re on the ‘net
They’re at your door

You didn’t do it?
You all say that

They haven’t decided
If you will suffer
A heart attack
Or die while trying

To escape
