Do not run
Do not go
Do not do it
You said.

But I wanted to
I said.

And what to do now
I don't know how

IT'S COMPLICATED

I don't know how
And what to do now

I said,
But I wanted to.

You said,
Do not do it
Do not go
Do not run.

And it's another friday night on the lonely side of town.
Where they roll up the streets after the sun goes down.
I was sittin' in my favorite bar just tryin' to drink you
off my mind.
When I heard George Jones singin' a sad song and I knew,
I was waisting my time.

'Cause no matter how much whiskey I drink
While chain smokin' cigarettes
All the one night stands and big weekend plans
Haven't helped me forget you yet.

And it's another sunday mornin' wakin' up,next to a stranger.
I'm just tryin' to find my keys,and tryin' to remember her name.
But your name's the only one that's always on my mind.
And I know by tonight i'll be tryin' to drink away this pain,
lord nuthin' will change.

'Cause no matter how much whiskey I drink
While chain smokin' cigarettes
All the one night stands and big weekend plans
Haven't helped me forget you yet.

Lord knows i've tried to get over you,but then i'm back
in the heartache again.
So caught up in the denial and the lies,of this bottle
that i'm drowning in.......

And it's another monday mornin' wakin' up with a hangover
and heartache.
Tryin' to make it through the day,is the hardest thing to do.
Because at five o'clock I know,i'll be sitting at that bar.
Lost in a bottle,and hiding from the truth, but it's no use.

'Cause no matter how much whiskey I drink
While chain smokin' cigarettes
All the one night stands and big weekend plans
Haven't helped me forget you yet.
No matter how much whiskey I drink
No matter how much whiskey I drink
No matter how much whiskey I drink....
hasn't helped me forget you yet.

Hurt is like an angel weep
Heart given for safety keep
Cuts sharp into the edge of sleep

Hurting cannot make for strong
Seeps out notes from every song
Makes the nightlight dwindle long

Soul bright hidden puckered cloud
Fear steps clatter harsh and loud
Glad is veiled in joy lack shroud

Hurting pulls the sweetness down
Tender hidden careless frown
Shreds up dreams without a sound

Hurt wields his harm shaped knife
Severs limbs from unfinished life .

Quietly phone blends air to bleak
Sings in silence sharp and deep
Undone letters touch and cry
Embers of want softly die
Words of love began unmeant
Read inside out, thought not sent
Slender slivers of quiet belief
Taken by the absence thief
Was not all that I really should
Not lived life to best and good
Knowing so I wonder, ponder
Why such fragile heart will wander
Yet happy lives beyond blue yonder.

My love was lost
So very long ago
Never to be found
Where ever I go
I follow his footsteps
From mountain to sea
A myth do I trace?
I can never be free
He promised my soul
That he home he would come
The army he said
Needs me my love
He fought for his country
He fought for his land
He fought for my love
He fought for my hand
My father brought others
But none have his eyes
His smile so long gone
They speak only lies
I waited for him
Four score years
But he never came back to me
I face my biggest fears
I will find him one day
However far I must go
My love was lost
So very long ago

smile


you walk around all the time looking hurt and sad.


you always seem so angry and mad.


sometimes i wonder if you wonder you realize what you have.


sometimes you try to open locked doors.


you dont have the keys so maybe you should just smile more.


when you smile i smile but yours only lasts a little while.


i need you to smile so i can be strong.


and we can make it through together when life goes wrong.


you brighten my day when you smile up at me


but i guess your to blind to see,


just how much you truly mean to me.

Tell me what I do not want to know
Tell me the reality
Tell me what you do not want to show
Tell me the agonizing finality

Tell me to move on
Tell me of the mundane ways without me and you
Tell me to vanish gone
Tell me to escape the abyss of the pale blue

Tell me your confirmation for a separate application
Tell me the meaning
Tell me your exclamation … express your exaggeration
Tell me without me, exists a magical feeling

Tell me what is stopping us
Tell me, I demand your prescribed nonsense
Tell me your fuss
Tell me, if you dare to build the dividing fence


Tell me truth, not lies
Tell me, please softly whisper otherwise


Tell me you have turned the old pages
Tell me your fear will disappear
Tell me you are ready to roll with the changes
Tell me you want to come back near

Tell me you wish to end the lonely misery
Tell me you miss me
Tell me our love will set us free

Tell me you care and ready to share
Tell me our love is rare
Tell me there is promise in the air

On a cold sinful night while my heart slept
A beautiful lady into my life crept.
She talked of a journey she planned to take
Seemed a similar path I wanted to make.

She whispered to my soul, set my heart on fire,
Of this precious journey, I blazed with desire.
Take my hand I said let this journey begin
For I cannot live with sin after sin.

Then the world beckoned, drew her back
She slipped fell through the crack
With my last breath I turned to my goal
“Let’s start the journey lonesome old soul”

The journey is long, alone to the end
The path is narrow bend after bend
With gravel in my teeth and thorns at my feet
Not a fellow traveler to meet

Yet my eye is simple and my heart is still
Faith keeps me moving to paradiseville.
Reaching my goal and journey’s end
A bounty of pure peace and true friend

I know in my heart I’ve passed the test
Closed my eyes and started to rest.
Then a tap on my shoulder, when I turn to see
A beautiful child whispers to me

“You cannot rest yet” he said with regret
“You must journey back, you’re my best bet.
Burdened with fear and a heavy load
My mother is searching for the narrow road”

‘She is alone now and I fear she’ll slip
Back to the darkness that sinking ship.
Her heart cries out your name still
For she has loved you and always will”

The sky lightens even
though the sun is
not visible to the eye.
I marvel at its power to
make its presence known.

Though its rays cannot be
felt through the clouds,
they have the power to burn
through flesh, clear to the bone

much like memories
that consume the now moment
and expropriate the future.

You take my time to fill an empty yours.

You come to meet me not to stay alone.

You eat with me and say you aren't hungry,

You sleep with me and say you don't love me.


My passion is tiring for you

My thirst for life is boring for you

What do you want from me?

To take my time to fill an empty yours?

You take my soul,

But it does not fill an empty yours.
