Yesterdays
Memories fill my head
Of the love we once shared
Am I wrong to want
To go back to that place?
A place where I'd
Often look out my window
To green grass
And rolling hills
Somehow signifying how
Happy we were
I long for the days
When packing a lunch
Before you went to work
Was a joy to me
Giving you a kiss
And sending you off
Was fulfilling to my being
Boring,mundane,and ordinary
That was us
And somehow it worked
But like the machine that
This was sometimes
The wrong buttons get pushed
Then...
Of the love we once shared
Am I wrong to want
To go back to that place?
A place where I'd
Often look out my window
To green grass
And rolling hills
Somehow signifying how
Happy we were
I long for the days
When packing a lunch
Before you went to work
Was a joy to me
Giving you a kiss
And sending you off
Was fulfilling to my being
Boring,mundane,and ordinary
That was us
And somehow it worked
But like the machine that
This was sometimes
The wrong buttons get pushed

Sleepless nights
Before my eyes know rest
They fill my pillow with stains
Of salty worry
I try to remember
When days were brighter
And my world was a little lighter
But I can only recall the misery
Sleepless nights are all I know
Sadness mixed with melancholy
And situations beyond my control
I still hear you whisper
Promises of tomorrow
Never leaving my side
But only adding to my sorrow
Where did those yesterdays go
Still locked in my mind next
To forever
My heart can't fathom
What reality is trying to
Get my mind to see...
They fill my pillow with stains
Of salty worry
I try to remember
When days were brighter
And my world was a little lighter
But I can only recall the misery
Sleepless nights are all I know
Sadness mixed with melancholy
And situations beyond my control
I still hear you whisper
Promises of tomorrow
Never leaving my side
But only adding to my sorrow
Where did those yesterdays go
Still locked in my mind next
To forever
My heart can't fathom
What reality is trying to
Get my mind to see...

Can We Pretend?
Verse 1
I know about the other woman
I know she's the one who's calling
Late at night when you slip out
I know what it's all about
Even though I try to make it right
She's the one you're seeing tonight
But before you leave
I gotta know
Chorus:
Can we pretend that
I'm the only one
Let's make it happen
Before the feeling is gone
Can we pretend that
She don't exist
And I'm the woman
You're in love with
Baby if it's not
Asking too much
Can we pretend?
Verse 2
Seen the two if you
Out...
I know about the other woman
I know she's the one who's calling
Late at night when you slip out
I know what it's all about
Even though I try to make it right
She's the one you're seeing tonight
But before you leave
I gotta know
Chorus:
Can we pretend that
I'm the only one
Let's make it happen
Before the feeling is gone
Can we pretend that
She don't exist
And I'm the woman
You're in love with
Baby if it's not
Asking too much
Can we pretend?
Verse 2
Seen the two if you
Out...

Kissing Cousins
I remember that day
Of Aunt Bea's funeral
Plenty of people wearing
Blacks and greys
So were we but
Somehow we caught each
Other's eyes
Damn we're you as
Fine as ever
For a moment in time
It was just us
Staring at one another intensely
I admired the way
Your dreads flowed
Down your shoulders
And cascaded over your back
Strong,muscular arms
Were visible through
The jacket of your suit
Damn I thought
Who was this hunk of sexy?
I watched as you slowly turned
Almost hating to break our stare...
Of Aunt Bea's funeral
Plenty of people wearing
Blacks and greys
So were we but
Somehow we caught each
Other's eyes
Damn we're you as
Fine as ever
For a moment in time
It was just us
Staring at one another intensely
I admired the way
Your dreads flowed
Down your shoulders
And cascaded over your back
Strong,muscular arms
Were visible through
The jacket of your suit
Damn I thought
Who was this hunk of sexy?
I watched as you slowly turned
Almost hating to break our stare...

Nice and Rough
I've been waiting for you
Now we can finally share
A moment of pleasure
Lay down beside me
And let me take over
Let's connect our minds,
Bodies and souls
Let's get lost in each other
I have gifts to give
Kisses to caress you with
Touches that will melt you
A tongue to please you
And a mouth to devour you
Lay down and let me
Massage your manliness
Until I've swallowed the
Life out of you
Until you're weak and cannot move
Until you've found my groove
My mind is burning
With forbidden thoughts...
Now we can finally share
A moment of pleasure
Lay down beside me
And let me take over
Let's connect our minds,
Bodies and souls
Let's get lost in each other
I have gifts to give
Kisses to caress you with
Touches that will melt you
A tongue to please you
And a mouth to devour you
Lay down and let me
Massage your manliness
Until I've swallowed the
Life out of you
Until you're weak and cannot move
Until you've found my groove
My mind is burning
With forbidden thoughts...

Idly I stand by
Idly I stand by, watching you walk away
You have another waiting for you.
Someone who loves you too
She'd never understand
What you mean to me.
How your love completes me.
But know that as you go
A part of me will go with you,
Securing the bond that was built
On a solid foundation.
My heart smiles knowingly
That you are flowing through me.
The essence of your love
Abides deeper than the eye can see.
Physical? Oh no...
Nothing can be further from the truth.
Spiritual,emotional, growing
From a deep root.
Some...

The Stranger
Take my hand he said
Come with me to your destiny
Not knowing and unsure
I took his hand and we walked.
We walked through fields of yellow
And green,where birds lived
Small creatures crept about unseen.
Loving this place,I wanted to stay
It was so easy and free
Surely this is where I longed to be
It had to be my destiny.
But as quickly as the sun glowed
We embarked on a world so cold
The stench of death choked me
I struggled to find light
He gripped harder as he spoke to me
We're almost there he said
I tried to fathom...
Come with me to your destiny
Not knowing and unsure
I took his hand and we walked.
We walked through fields of yellow
And green,where birds lived
Small creatures crept about unseen.
Loving this place,I wanted to stay
It was so easy and free
Surely this is where I longed to be
It had to be my destiny.
But as quickly as the sun glowed
We embarked on a world so cold
The stench of death choked me
I struggled to find light
He gripped harder as he spoke to me
We're almost there he said

Voices
It's like walking through hell
Wondering if you'll ever wake up
If you'll break the spell.
Voices taunting me,saying this
And saying that.
Telling me I'll never win
So it's best you exit
And bring it to an end...
To a close...take a handful
Of pills I suppose.
You see I never had the guts
To put a gun to my head
So I ingest enough downers
To leave two people dead.
All the while that one little voice
Keeps telling me I have a choice
And that I won't expire
Refusing to face the music
I now face the fire.
Now...
Wondering if you'll ever wake up
If you'll break the spell.
Voices taunting me,saying this
And saying that.
Telling me I'll never win
So it's best you exit
And bring it to an end...
To a close...take a handful
Of pills I suppose.
You see I never had the guts
To put a gun to my head
So I ingest enough downers
To leave two people dead.
All the while that one little voice
Keeps telling me I have a choice
And that I won't expire
Refusing to face the music
I now face the fire.

You can't handle the TRUTH!
I'd tell you all that i know
But i don't think you're ready
No you're not prepared to hear
That change is coming,that doom is near
You say you don't wanna live a lie
That the truth will set u free
But you can't handle the truth!
So it will remain a mystery
It's a bitter pill to swallow
Really hard to take
When you find out the life
You live really is fake...
An illusion,a fantasy
Nothing like the crap you've been fed
The "American Dream",
It's all in your head
You would have a meltdown if you knew...
But i don't think you're ready
No you're not prepared to hear
That change is coming,that doom is near
You say you don't wanna live a lie
That the truth will set u free
But you can't handle the truth!
So it will remain a mystery
It's a bitter pill to swallow
Really hard to take
When you find out the life
You live really is fake...
An illusion,a fantasy
Nothing like the crap you've been fed
The "American Dream",
It's all in your head
You would have a meltdown if you knew...

A hole in my heart
I must have a fetish for pain
'Cause every time you hurt me
I come limping back again
You say i need to get a grip
But i never knew
When you fall in love it's a trip
You most love to see me cry
When i give my love
You take it and leave without a goodbye
You come through like a hurricane
Leaving a trail of broken hearts
I'd tell of the grief you cause
But i don't know where to start
Everything i loved about you
Is what i now hate
Turn a different corner
I'd have never met this fate
A gaping wound is what you left me to nurse...
'Cause every time you hurt me
I come limping back again
You say i need to get a grip
But i never knew
When you fall in love it's a trip
You most love to see me cry
When i give my love
You take it and leave without a goodbye
You come through like a hurricane
Leaving a trail of broken hearts
I'd tell of the grief you cause
But i don't know where to start
Everything i loved about you
Is what i now hate
Turn a different corner
I'd have never met this fate
A gaping wound is what you left me to nurse...
