{not a} Waste

Don't want to be an actor pretending on the stage
Don't want to be a writer with my thoughts out on the page
Don't want to be a painter 'cause everyone comes to look
Don't want to be anything where my life's an open book
A dream it's true
But I'd see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
Don't want to be a farmer working in the sun
Don't want to be an outlaw always on the run
Don't want to be a climber reaching for the top
Don't want to be anything where I don't know when to stop
A dream it's true
But I'd see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
So if I'm inside your head
Don't believe what you might have read
You'll see what I might have said
To hear itCome waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
So if I'm inside your head
Don't believe what you might have read
You'll see what I might have said
To hear it
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

It is Enough

So many words
So many ways
If you can hear me now
There's something I gotta say.

Just one more talk
Just one more turn
If one's too much then..I just want to say..


Thank you,
For everything
You ever done for me
I just want to say..

Thank you,
For all the things
For saving me.

So many times,
So many days
You helped me through
Walked me through the rain.

So many tears,
Have washed away
If you can hear my voice
There's something I have to say..

Just one more talk
Just one more turn
If one's too much then..I just want to say..

Thank you,
For everything
You ever done for me
I just want to say..

Thank you,
For all the things
For saving me
It's been so long..

They say time will heal everything
Could you send me a sign
To fill the soul in my life
Turn on a light
To help me see through it all
No one left to rescue me
(But no need to) Save me...(Again)

Just one more talk
Just one more turn
If one's too much then
I just want to say..

Thank you,
For everything
You ever done for me
I just want to say..

Thank you,
For all the things
For saving me
I just want to say.

Blow November Blow

all eyes on the calendar
another year i claim of total indifference
to here the days pile up
i'm sure all of them were wrong
with decisions to be made
into this song, i send myself
and with these drinks i plan to collapse and forget
this wasted year
these wasted years
i'm sorry about the phone call and needing you
devoted friends, they disappear
i guess it's like breathing and not wanting to
some decisions you don't make
there are some things that you can't fake
i guess that it is typical
to cling to memories you'll never get back again
and to sort through old photographs of a summer long ago
or a friend that you used to know
and there, below his frozen face
you wrote the name and that ancient date
and you can't believe he is really gone
when all that's left is a f**king song
i'm sorry about the phone call and waking you
i know that its late
but thank you for talking because i needed to
some things just can't wait

Fear

The heat comes in distant shifts to fill up my room
It spills out of these ancient vents to meet the new cold
And I lay in my twisted sheets, and stare out at the snow
Thinking of the next few months, my cold and lifeless eyes
No, I've never felt so separate
Then there's you, but that's so obvious
It's hopeless and I know this, that's why I can't dream
No desire or circumstance keeps it from me

One by one, to department stores, we walk through the aisles
In a forest of designer clothes, you touch me and smile
And know for a moment, I could want nothing
Your bright eyes burn through my exploding heart
We stand as the shoppers pass us
And for once I can feel a touch complete

I need to just be near you and fill these empty eyes
You start turning as resistance pulls you from my cold and boring life
Let's make this easy and let time pass, as devotion dies
The list goes on and on
I have waited, and I'll be waiting for the pain to cure the fear

Murphy needs to back off..

Murphy's law is a proverb that states, "if anything can go wrong, it will."

Or it is cited as: "If there's more than one possible outcome of a task, and one of those outcomes will result in disaster or an undesirable consequence, then somebody will do it that way";"Anything that can go wrong, will," the similar "Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way."





Epic fail

not good, failed
not good enough, failed

failed to stop

failed to see

failed to love

failed to recieve

Pedro Speaks


The impact

The aftershave

The European ciggarettes


The taxi

The alcohol

That lingers on your breath


The lipstick

The street lamp

The woolen overcoat


The front desk

You tell yourself

It isn't over yet


Second best, oh, second best

I can learn to live with this

Plus, I really need a rest


After all, what's wrong with second best

What's wrong with second best


The motel

The distances

Cave into kisses, cold and wet


Familiar exchanges

Like needle pulling thread


The empty movements that once were so inspired

Desperate attempts to fan the flame without the fire


The matress creaks beneath

The symphony of misery and cum

Still, we lie jerking back and forth

And blurring into one


Second best, oh, second best

I can learn to live with this

Plus, I relaly need a rest

After all, what's wrong with second best

What's wrong with second best

Study Love

"We can't know where we're going until we know where we've been.
And the music of the past is not just to study and put it in a museum.
The way to study it is to put it on the stereo and turn it up as loud as you can."
**Emmylou Harris**
