Fallen Angel

     I can feel your pain, I know
And I have secret to tell
This is just between you and me
Not all fallen Angels go to Hell

So if you’re feeling low and you
Think you’ll never see the Dawn
If the darkness has surrounded you
And you feel like you’re the lost one

Just listen to me, I know
If you’re feeling you can’t go on
It hurts so deep inside and
You’re just hurtin for someone

Take my word, I know
If it feels, the pain will never be gone
Just know In your heart you’re
Not the only lonely one

In the shadows between the lines
Hear the echoes and recall
Hear the whispers and know
You’re not the first to fall

No you’re not the first to fall
And you know you won’t be the last
If you want to find love again
You must release your past

Just take some time to unwind
Your broken heart from its tangle
And when you’re ready, just take
The hand of another fallen Angel

Give Me Death

      So it shall be written
So it shall be done
Here I am stuck on a planet
With nowhere to run

I’ve got no device for escape, this calls
For more than a bottle of cold gin
So it is written, time is coming to an
End but I didn’t wanna see it begin

It’s the year twenty, twenty we should
Be living in a world of peace and light
But instead we’re divided and living
In a world of turmoil in our darkest night

We’re in a constant fight and soon we’ll
Listen to the Swan as she sings
As long as we let ourselves be Marionettes
And let the media pull the strings

As for me I don’t wish to live in this world
With the fighting and political shibboleth
Give me back my world and learn to love
Or you can simply give me death

Crazy/Sane

     I’d like to think I’m stable
If I am, I’ve gotta be on the edge
If you examine my mind, I think you’ll
Find you won’t have to dredge

For I’m sure it’s alive just beneath the
Surface, just milliliters from escape
So I warn you, be careful where you tread
For the outer layer is as thin as a crape

I’m trying desperately to hold it all
Together but it’s a shaky reality
If you listen to my words, they’re
Screaming like the wails of the Banshee

It’s not like I’m hearing voices
It’s more like an annoying itch
The best way I can describe it is,
It’s like a video game with a gli -gli-glitch

I know it’s just a matter of time
Before I lose myself inside my brain
The circuits are blowing, if you look
Closely you’ll see, I’m Crazy/Sane

Her Spell

    I was young but far from innocent
But I still thought love passed me by
Forever grounded and always alone
My broken wings to never fly

The fairytale, never a reality but I
Dreamed life could still be bliss
Then I saw her and I was hypnotized
And my life changed with a kiss

What they say about it, all the symptoms
Was becoming my experience
But everyone said not to worry about it
For it was proven not to be deleterious

In her presence I felt so strange
And I would lose my ability to speak
My stomach would turn upside down
And my knees would grow weary and weak

And now as the years have passed us by
Still burning brightly is the flame
I know that for me, forever
It will always remain the same

I’ll always remember my flight
And the instant of the Sudden chandelle
The day that everything changed
As I fell helplessly under her spell

Dedicated to my wife Cynthia
April 13th 1983 was our first date
I married her April 14th 1984
I truly still get the symptoms of her spell
When we’re together.

Shambhala

   Is it a fantasy or is it just a dream
A mythical place free of hostility
People living in harmony and in
Complete enlightenment and tranquility

Here upon this Earth somewhere between
The vast desert of the Gobi
And the mountains of the Himalaya
How wonderful it would be

I’ve heard the songs they’ve sang
And one by Three Dog Night
A beautiful image of walking the streets
And halls an overwhelming delightful sight

To be one with mind and body
And with each other in peace
The hatred and division at an end
So divine as the fighting would cease

Should we have to venture far out in
Space or even in our Milky Way to Aquila
Or is it really a possibility to come to
This achievement in a place like Shambhala

Twenty Thousand BC

  It’s the year twenty twenty
We should be far advanced
We should be as one working together
Our lives should be much more enhanced

A unison inferior existence ready
To explore the realms of space
Lives living in harmony in a
Beautiful utopia of one human race

But no instead we are in a pitfall
As if we’re living in the era of the Stonehenge
Fighting amongst ourselves in fits of
Racial and political rage and revenge

A world of unrest pulling ourselves
Away from the matters of the heart
Letting the media and corporate entities
Keep us further and further apart

I don’t know about anyone else
But this is not the world for me
By now we should be aboard the Enterprise
Out in space but no we’re livin in twenty
Thousand BC
