Dream
Sid Oct 2015
I saw you last night.
I stirred and stirred.
We were civil and sweet,
and fine as we were.
But I still stirred.
It
Must've
Never
Really
Been
Fine,
After all.

Pretty Girl
Sid Oct 2015
Sister, are you lookin' for someone?
Why you out so late tonight with your tattoo and your gun?
Are you lookin' for the Devil to help you pass the time?
When you hop the train to ease the pain, that's who you're gonna find.

Lady, are you out there on the run? Spent the money so you might as well have just a little fun. You're dancin' with the beast, so pick out a fresh black dress. Paint your lips and eyes up nice and his cold heart you will possess, because

The Devil loves women. Rock
                                                  The
                                                       Boat,
You gonna end up swimmin'.
So, grab that knife.
Protect your life, when he comes to claim the pearl.

You're lookin' so **** pretty, and he's looking for a pretty girl.

Jezebel (A Song)
Sid Jan 2015
Heard about your girl today.
Heard she took of without a word and ran away.
She'll be back again someday.
When she's done messing around she'll be back this way.
I know all about those girls well, my friend.
And they always get the best men.
Playing games is what they intend,
and they always end up crawling back in the end.

The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
A Jezebel's always looking for a mate.
The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
So don't you worry, boy.
Sit right down,
and wait.

Can't get far without a car
and no cigarettes to smoke or cash to blow.
Don't you let her play her games.
She's gonna see how far you're gonna let her go.

The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
A Jezebel's heart is always grey.
The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
So don't you worry, boy.
Sit right down,
and wait.

Don't you cry, no don't you cry.
Save it for a sweet girl who cares.
And when you find her, I guarentee
you'll turn around and see your Jezebel there.

The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
A Jezebel's always looking for a mate.
The Jezebel's gonna come back any day now.
So don't you worry, boy.
Sit right down,
and wait.

Outside of the Bar (A Song)
Sid Jan 2015
I just got a drink
haven't taken a sip when
you come walkin' up and attach to my hip.
Say you had a bad day
and you need me to talk you through.
I know that you think that your problems are bad
but they don't much compare to the day that I've had
so if it's alright
I'm gonna take a minute or two.

Girlfriends can be so suffocating.
Needing advice on work or dating (Hey girl, just trying to get a buzz here...).
We'll be ok because we've come this far
so can you leave the petty drama outside of the bar?
Come on girl, let's get our party on.
We're gonna get wild tonight.

I just wanna dance.
Hear my favorite song,
when you come walking up because something is wrong.
They don't play this song a lot...
I just wanna stay and dance.
But the tears in your eyes say you need me tonight
and your troubles are too much for you to disguise.
Guess I'll come back another night,
if I ever get another chance.

Girlfriends can be so suffocating.
Crying while the country song is playing (Hey girl, just trying to dance here...).
We'll be ok because we've come this far
so can you leave the runny makeup outside of the bar?
Come on girl, let's get our party on.
We're gonna get wild tonight.

Girlfriends can be so suffocating.
Oh, their need for constant entertaining (Hey girl, it's my day off...).
We'll be ok because we've come this far
so can you call up your boyfriend outside of the bar?
Come on girl, let's get our party on.
We're gonna get wild tonight.

We're gonna get wild tonight.
*(spoken)
Sid Jan 2015
He said, "He cutie pie,
wanna go for a ride?
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go.
Come inside.
We'll drive into the night.
Get a little high,
get a little low.
But before you take my hand you should know,

You can't control an outlaw.
Rebel wild, run around,
can't chase 'em down.
No, you can't control an outlaw.
Knowing what it means to be free,
I'll hook you up with the thrill you need."

He said, "Never you mind.
You're lookin' mighty fine.
You got me feeling like I'm about to blow.
But in tomorrow's light
don't you start no fight,
and don't say I didn't tell you so..."

You can't control an outlaw.
Rebel wild, run around,
can't chase 'em down.
No, you can't control an outlaw.
Knowing what it means to be free,
Hook me up with the thrill I need.

He said, "Hey baby girl,
you're gonna rock my world.
And then I'll catch you on the other side."

You can't control an outlaw.
Rebel wild, run around,
can't chase 'em down.
No, you can't control an outlaw.
Knowing what it means to be free,
Hook me up with the thrill I need.

Tattooed Man (A Song)
Sid Jan 2015
I used to be
unfortunately
just jumbled upstairs
with things bothering me.
I had an ole' broken heart,
picked through and fumbled apart.
Until this renegade cowboy said,
"Depression depart."

Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.
I got myself a bad boy, so come and try it if you can.
And even though he keeps me warm at night,
if you meet him in the dark he's gonna put out your lights.
Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.

And when the whiskey gets ahold of your head,
you best take care of your tongue or watch him turn red.
And I wouldn't wanna be the one looking at me
if I'm holding his hand, make sure he doesn't see.
Keep your hands at your side
because consequences provide,
and you'll be wishing you had when you two collide.

Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.
I got myself a bad boy, so come and try it if you can.
And even though he keeps me warm at night,
if you meet him in the dark he's gonna put out your lights.
Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.

So when you're drinking at night
and wanna get in a fight
because the scar needs a callus to heal just right,
walk away from the man
with the tattooed hands
because protecting his woman's all apart of his plan.

Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.
I got myself a bad boy, so come and try it if you can.
And even though he keeps me warm at night,
if you meet him in the dark he's gonna put out your lights.
Noone will ever harm me, not with my tattooed man.

Free (A Song)
Sid Jan 2015
I'm putting it down
because I'm tired of messing around.
And even if I could
try and fix us, I don't think I would.
I said goodbye
because I knew it was foolish to try.
So why do I find
you're still dancing up and down inside my mind?
I'm keeping my past
exactly where it's at
because you can't keep living for what used to be.
And when you go too fast
it's hard to make it last
and after all this time I finaly see;

We were never meant to be together
I know we keep on trying,
that's why we keep on lying.
We were never meant to be forever.
It's an easy thing for us to dream on,
but I think it's time we fly on
free.

I guess we could stay.
It might be a little easier that way.
But passion will fade
and we'll both regret the choices we've made.
God knows that we tried
to sort things out inside
and to try to figure out how to make it work.
But all the love aside
the pain just won't subside
and we're paying more for this love than it's worth.

We were never meant to be together.
I know we keep on trying,
and that's why we're keep on lying.
We were never meant to be forever.
It's an easy thing for us to dream on,
but I think it's time we fly on free.

I set you free.

I apologize.
I cannot enough.
Although you didn't miss me there,
although you probably didn't care,
I'm sorry I didn't make it there.

You celebrate.
And so you should.
I got nervous like I do,
couldn't come through,
got too anxious to.

We're new.
Nothing big.
But I so hope we
can be
regardlessly and continuously
courteous and friendly.

Tennessee
Sid Oct 2014
I miss the hills of delicate green
more beautiful than most eyes have seen
fresh and tender, sparkling clean
It was my home as a young teen.

And

I've longed to hear the horses play
I lie awake at night and pray
to be back in Tennessee someday.

What I See
Sid Oct 2014
When you speak ill of me
do you know what I see?
Division in this group of three
separation is what I see.

When you speak ill of me
do you know what I see?
A person filled with such beauty
is now as ugly as can be.

When you speak ill of me
do you know what I see?
Poison plaguing once such glee
killing all that's wild and free.

When you speak ill of me
do you know what I see?
A screaming, wreched, fey banchee
who thinks too much she is Queen Bee.

So when you speak ill of me,
it puzzles me that you can't see
how beautiful that you could be
IF YOU'D SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

... We both agree.

Everything is Peaceful, Now
Sid Oct 2014
Everything is peaceful now
I don't know how it came to be like that
all I did was say I'm sorry
in a hurry
I was wrong
I felt his fury.

I said it
I meant it
for admission of flaws is not weak
in fact it's strong
He was right and I
was wrong.

No need for the tears
yet they flood from my eyes
for fear he will see my wicked side
then run and hide
with no intention of return
just another bridge left burned.

Yet somehow he forgives
says he can't bear to live
without me or how I give
him peace of mind.

Yet little does he see
how strong he makes me
accepting flaws he can forgive.

And that is why I'm shocked at how
Everything is peaceful, now.
