It's been almost one whole year, my love.
When will this charade be over?
I've been quiet in the background,
hiding in the shadows,
waiting for the day they all will know.
I never thought it would last this long.

When will I be freed of this indefinite sentence?
When will we stop playing this game of hide & seek?
When will you unveil me?

I'm still waiting...
rub against me
make me spark
start a big flame
to take up all this
                cold dark
I burn for you.

Throw water on me
watch the flame
                    disappear
walk away, as I lay
               on the damp ground

leave me feeling cold
     charred,
                 burnt out.
it's not that reality's boring
dreams just show me the way
it's not that reality's not welcoming
but in dreams I wish I could stay

it's not that the world is painful
but in dreams there is no strain
it's not that the world is judgmental
but in dreams I can bathe in the rain

it's not that society's uncreative
but in dreams I can paint with the music
it's not that society's not surprising
but in dreams I never feel basic  

it's not that life is too limited
but in dreams I can walk on the sun
It's not that life isn't enjoyable
but sadly, my dreams are more fun.
I could see how broken she was,
and I would have liked to have love her.
Don't buy the promises.
Don't listen to the man.
We all hear the music,
but some are in the band.

Some of US say peace.
Some of US say war.
Two of US are rich,
the rest of US are poor.

Most of US are broke.
Most of US are mad.
Some of US are working,
the rest of US are bad.

Most of US can eat,
some of US do not.
We all know it's wrong,
or have we all forgot.

I'd love to solve the problem,
I'd love to help a bit.
Come on my fellow hippies.
Come on and take a sit.

Some listen to their own song.
Most listen to the band.
But we all hear the music.
What happen to this Land?

Peace out.
If anyone asks,
I was never here
what happens tonight
is neither here nor there

you put me through hell
expecting me to be an angel
you dragged me through the mud
expecting me to come clean

Tonight, I'm a ghost
You can't touch me
Even if you see me
You won't believe

If anyone asks,
I couldn't care less
What happened last night
Just whispers behind my back

you asked me for my heart
expecting that not to leave a hole
you stripped me of everything
expecting me to still have my diginity

Tonight, I'm a ghost
You can't touch me
Even if you see me
You won't believe

nobody gets what they deserve
nobody gets a second chance
nobody gets what they give
you get what you get

If anyone asks,
I was never here
what happens tonight
is neither here nor there
