#boulder
Oh to be a leaf
Blowing in the breeze
Going wherever the wind takes me
Oh to be a tree
Standing great and tall
With my head held high
Oh to be a bolt of lightning
Energetic and electrifying
Striking the ground with power
Oh to be a boulder
Big and strong
Never to be broken
Oh to be what I'm not
Because what I am
Isn't good enough

There is a boulder
in the middle of the road --
there is a boulder.

BOULDER
The massive boulder sits in the lea of the moor; it has been here for a million years
and seen everything that has ever happened.
So many tons of stone made up of all of the elements which make up the very
planet itself.
This piece of stone has been here longer than Man himself and it has seen so many years
come and go, from the harsh cold of winter to the boiling heat of summer, this boulder
has felt them all.
Seasons crack your outer layer with freezing cold and ice, then bake your heart
with the fire of the sun.
You will be here until the weather grinds you down to grains and then the whole
process starts all over again to make a boulder once again.

A seed may divide a boulder,
life a verse can dived a
sentence.
We must understand that the
smallest voice can be more vocal than
a country that shouts but is unheard.
We are all grains that can open up
the hardest point.
And when we grow, our roots will
cultivate beneath the oppression
that stifles that will eventually reach forth.

I thought the storm had passed
and that wreckage had been avoided.
Against the current my whole pirate life,
uncaring of the opinions of others,
and focus on the rowing at hand.
The gray and thrilling sky
make the dark sea water seem ferocious.
The risk of lightning had never crossed my mind
before tonight when I suddenly realized I was alone
on a boat in the sea
and in the middle of a storm.
I steer with my left
and dump bucketloads of water with my other hand.
Focused on damage control
and ignorant to the the storm's prognosis
whilst my wooden mind struggles to stay afloat.
Row forth and onward.
This storm too shall pass,
and I'll come out stronger.

Hoisting the boulder,
Legs tremble beneath great weight,
Ant brings home a crumb.

the angel laughs
at my broken mask
i hide behind a boulder
so i can’t see the light of day
and if i can’t see you
you can’t see me
who is this girl i see
staring back, listening to
the tune of the song i sing
about losing everything
i can’t hold onto myself
when you trace my lips
and marinate them with the taste of strawberries
but tell me,
who can live without hope?

The boulder stands strong
The boulder weathers the fiercest storm
Its rocky exterior protecting the life of what’s inside
When the surroundings can cave
The boulder cannot crack
Or else the strength fades
And the boulder dissolves
Into pebbles
Into sand
Though sometimes
The boulder grows weary by being firm
By being unaffected by outside circumstances
Sometimes
The boulder needs to soften
Needs to breathe
Needs to crumble

such a heavy load you have there
that chip sitting on your shoulder
why not just let it go
let it go before it's a boulder
thicken up your skin a bit
don't jump so quick to defense
nobody's out to get you
you don't have to be so intense
I hate walking on eggshells
I really don't want them to crack
so remove all those shells, brush off the chip
and cut everybody some slack!

Some people see me as a zero
But I'm a ******* hero
Everyday I survive
What would make other want to take a swan dive
Off the brige on 65
Everyday I survive
What would eat others up alive
In the chaos I thrive
Yes some people conceder that I'm a ******* zero
They can't see behind the mask that I'm a complicated hero
Everyday is a boulder
I must climb over
it all leaves me a little colder
Everyday is a boulder
Ment to roll me over
My life's a **** rollercoaster
Some people need to reconsider what makes someone a zero
Because everyday I fight to the end, plainly makes me a hero

she whispers. "hey."
"hm?"
"you're my boulder."
he chuckles. "what?"
"you're my boulder. you're
stronger than a rock. you're
the one who keeps me
from losing myself. you're
the one who keeps me
grounded. you are my boulder."
he grimaces. "but if i'm a boulder
then i'd crush you...i would
hurt you."
she laughs quietly. "well then, you're
a gentle boulder. soft and fluffy and
all that stuff."
he stifles a laugh. "so do i just have
a bunch of fluffy green moss
growing on me?"
she nods. "you're
my big, gentle, sweet, moss-covered
boulder."
he smirks. "well...
then i guess you're
my pebble."
she looks into his eyes. "how so?"
"you're my pebble. you're
small but not easy to break. you're
seemingly fragile but you're
stronger than you look. you're
part of me and you're
the one who can either break me
or make me whole. you are my pebble."
she smiles
and he wraps his soft green sweatshirt
that he's wearing
around her
shoulders. "mine."
she murmurs. "my boulder."
he whispers. "my pebble."
and finally,
both of them
are found
as they gaze at the stars
and into each other's eyes.

Rolled into town
With a chip on my shoulder
Big as a boulder
Footloose and free
I went to my woman
I stood there and told her
I thought we should fold her
Now it's just me
Love isn't easy
It's more than a game
You play what you're dealt
And there's no one to blame
Do something wrong
It's more of the same
Love isn't easy for me
NO....Love isn't easy for me
Needed some time
Found an old city bar
me and my guitar
Had two shots and a beer
Had me a drink
From an old, cracked fruit jar
Thick as coal tar
What it was, wasn't clear
Love isn't easy
It's more than a game
The players may change
The result's still the same
Think too hard on it
It'll drive you insane
Love isn't easy for me
NO...Love isn't easy for me
Went to the jukebox
Put some cash in
It was just then
my phone, signalled me
My ex said hey baby
Let's try it again
I counted to ten
It's my guitar and me
Love isn't easy
It's a new kind of hell
You think you're ok
But, you never can tell
Instead of in love
I wish I'd just fell
Love isn't easy for me
NO...Love isn't easy for me
Rolled into town
With a chip on my shoulder
Big as a boulder
Footloose and free

I didn't realise
What a hardship it would be
Until I truly felt it
Heaving on my shoulders like a boulder

Table clock has rang
Boy has supposed to hang
He should be can
One day he will be a man
I think it is a big fun
Bag has on his shoulder
Books like some big boulder!
And he runs like a smart soldier
