Falling Water - Crutch

What did we do before you came along
Always showing us the dawn
You played the friend when I was down
And said I could go on
Always there for a little push
When heading toward the lights
Giving me a warm embrace
In time and space
Temptation in a vice
Now your there when you shouldn’t be
Never know when to go home
And all the dark you find in me
Just makes me sick to the bone
Now I would not say that I don’t want you
And I would not say that I do.
But your haunting me wherever I go
So I have to say we’re through
Cause your always there when I’m lonely
And your always there between the lines
And the people you take, Will burn at the stake,
As the wind gently blows through the vines.
Is just the weakness in me
Or just another lie
Have you cast a spell on me
Are lovers doomed to die
Rolling through the open sun
And burning in my head
Focused on a jackels tears. “it’s the crutch he feared”

Early Frost

I didn’t see it coming, how fast things can change
Warm & Glorious summer, Cut short by deep frozen rain
And St.jude she whispers pains lonely tears
Celebrating all your faults and exposing your fears
And the Deeper the pain the longer the thaw
It’s an early frost – Find a warm place next to me
It’s an early frost – or be a adrift in a frozen Sea
And you ask yourself do I hate her,
And the eight ball sais try again later,
So you wait for her to come around
But all the things you bought for her, can no longer be found
Which has all to do with fate and none with the cost.
Its an early frost – Better find a new place to play
It’s an early frost – Before your friends all move away
And as a begger searches for shelter
Athena Pours her wine
So Lucky boy writes one last sonnet
To tell of the time when he was beyond this
When all was golden and nothing was lost
Its an early frost - Find a warm place next to me
It’s an early frost – or be a adrift in a frozen Sea

Bastards

They said “whats can we do to ease your pain?”
I said “change this sun to pouring rain,
And show me a good reason to go on.”
The kids are crying every night.
I tell them everything will be alright,
But that’s not what I really do believe.
Oh we’ll keep going on,
As long as our lights keep burn’n strong,
But let me say, those bastards are going to pay.
Can’t read the paper or watch tv.
You know it all just kill’n me,
Sp many people just ripped out of our lives.
I see your face in everything,
Can’t seem to sleep or eat a thing,
I miss you baby, I miss you so much it hurts.
Goodbye my sweet, sweet love,
I’ll watch you in the stars above
But anyway, the bastards are gonna pay.
Things are getting pretty weird,
Just waiting for the smoke to clear,
And pick up the pieces, the pieces of our lives.
People starting to come around,
But there is no cipro to be found,
And no one knows whats gonna be a year from now.
One thing I know, is that its all changed
All our lives have been re-arranged,
But note Today those bastards are going to pay.

The Slow Down

Lay’n Low, Feel’n Down, Get me off this Go round.
Goin Out, Idon’t know. Don’t think I can go Now.
Can you feel the Slowdown
Drown’n in the waves of another stressful day,
Can you feel the Slowdown
Time is in the air, & I Don’t know if I care
Play’n w/ the kids when all the work I did is said and done.
Now the cold air fills the sky, So my soul could fly
Leaving the vessel far behind, Nothing left to find.
Coffee Please, Some of these. Empty, Gray and Hollow.
Leafless Trees, Aching Knees, Working towards Tomorrow
Can you feel the Slowdown
Lay’n in my bed with an aching in my head
Can you feel the Slowdown?
Needing sleep from promises I can’t keep.
Missing you, sinking in your paper stew.
Falling deep in the comfort zone, don’t let me fall alone.
Stuck here up against my will, Wishing time would just stand still.
Maybe it’s guilt that I feel, when I stop and smell the flowers
Or the fear of what I’d do with all the uncounted hours.
Can you feel the Slowdown
Lay’n in my bed with an aching in my head
Can you feel the Slowdown?
Needing sleep from promises I can’t keep.
Missing you, sinking in your paper stew.

Falling Water - Release
06:09

Lay your burden down and rest yourself a while
This place is a ghost town anyway
Cause when your body’s tired and your legs no longer stand
Its time to plan out another way
For if we choose the war the front line we will stand
Leaving nothing but casualties
My Friend, My Son maybe my Brother in the end
We never had no guarantees or
The answer lies on the gentle breeze
Release, Darkness from Light
Release, Give up the fight
I write your Eulogy as you sit right by my side
And all the wolves start to pine
Drink my tears as I decide the fate of your life
Which is now broken though once divine
Release, Darkness from Light
Release, Give up the fight
And only a fool will be King,
He makes the rules but they don’t mean a thing.
I’d rather go, deep into this hole, oh death won’t bother me.
Cause you gave me comfort, you gave me joy you gave me pride
Find us a place out in the sun
I will come look for you when I’m on the other side
Back down to the beach where we will run
Release, Darkness from Light
Release, Give up the fight
