If seeing is believing,
Then what is dreaming?



**Pretending

There is no way to describe it,
the pain someone else feels.
But you know that it's lurking close by.
You know that this pain is real.

The smell of burning flesh fills the air,
All I hear are police sirens everywhere.

The world is in turmoil as we all know,
No one has anyone to turn to, no where to go.

So I just sit here on my front porch step,
Wondering what happened overnight as the world slept.

Wires are down, trees are on fire,
Everything is chaos, all is haywire.

People are running around acting so crazy,
The smog that covers the earth is now very hazy.

Life as we know it has come to an end,
It is certainly going to be hard to mend.

All luck is deceased, no four leaf clovers,
All that is and was is completely over.

After this terrible heartbreak,
We know your right there by heavens gate,

Watching over us, protecting us as we live on,
But we cant get over the fact that your actually gone.

We miss you dearly, and no one could ever replace you,
You were our superman, flying through the sky oh so blue.

We are living a type of hell, wishing you were here,
But we know we'll see you later, and raise up our glasses of beer.

We take a shot of Jameson, a toast to you old man,
Whether playing the role as daddy or brother, no one can do it better than you can.

My soul is gone.
My heart was taken by you.
Never to love again.
You’ve broken down my spirit,
Lonely now and forever.

The wind howls outside.
It’s getting pretty chilly.
Whipping at your face.
Dark rain clouds follow you here,
In the desolate cold night.

It is a midnight hue,
A blue-ish black.
The lies that flew,

And stabbed my back.
My heart is dark and cold
The warmth and loving it does lack.

Now I’m empty, but oh you were so bold.
Taking me in and revealing to me your love.
As to let me think I was worth more than gold,

As if I was something heavenly from above.
Now I know it is purity you unfold.

Making pretend you’d give me free-love.
Never again shall you lie to me.
I hid myself in, almost like a glove.

You are gone and I can finally see.
Love was always priced and never free.
