We came like Lightning
Thunder clouds rolling
Our hearts pounding
Our lives unfolding
My love a weight
Fueling this hate
Not your fault
We had to part
Skipping work to hang out
Swinging by to pick you up
Kissing you in parking lots
Taking you in public spots
A fun distraction
While it lasted
I miss my friend
My old companion
Jettisoned now
Destined to grow
I haven't seen you yet
I know because I've looked

Breathe
Leaving
behind,
all
the rest
swaying
this time,
towards
our nest
You
lay down,
our legs entangle
No
longer numb,
energy
untangled
Our
eyes meet,
you
shift your hips
My
eyes drift,
I
find your lips
Plump
and wet,
changing in front of me
My mind goes blank
as the sensations flood me
Get lost in our field
Our bodies afire
My finger keeps inching
the stroke a little lighter
Electrical currents
Connecting our circuits
We both feel the pull
That only our bodies know
The room expands
and disappears
We become the sun
And melt our fears
Slowly come back
To this planet
Look down to you
Was it just 15 minutes?
Stuck
Dead sex
An
empty embrace
No
life in your eyes now
what's
left
If
I'd know then
What
was happening
I
would have thought
I
could have done something
Stop
texting
I'm
blocking your emails
I'll
never read them
through all of these tears
One
day
I'll
be
Happy
again,
We'll see
And one day
In another life
Mabye we could be friends
Maybe not
I still miss you
And I hate you
Wish you were back in my arms
Fucking A
What
are you doing
In
my world
Who
told you that you could walk right through the door?
Two-face
bully
Hypocrit
Talk
of love but you treat me like a stiff
I
just wanted
To
be a friend
Sure
I'd slip but I was there to the bitter end
And
now you're back
No
care in the world
As
if nothing happened and we're still good friends
Where's
your head
Up
in the clouds
You
talk about the past, with no sights on yourself
I
can't seem to let it go
but I know I need to grow
You
could change in a thousand ways, won't stop me from seeing the girl I
know
Calling it Quits
You're
calling it quits
As
the sun sets
We'll
go our separate ways
You've
got your lists
And
your reasons
So
think away your pain
I held your bullshit
Even when you were mean
You showed your talons
Your venomous teeth
And
now it's over, you think
you've got away
No
one to yell at, to fan at
the flames
I'm
going my way, but it feels
like a shame
Where's
the point
When
you stopped
Trying
and started dying
You
made me
Your
villain
Not
fair
For
not tellin'
Me
the truth
Of
where you were at
No
points,
You scaredy-cat
I
loved you,
All of you
That's
the truth and now I'm due
For
my next
Big
catch
You
watch
Get jealous
And
now it's all
Coming
back
Time for me
To get on track
Rising
sun
On
horizon
Bring light on in
Turning
on
My
dark side
Let
the shadows grow
Floating away
Floating
on
a
little row boat
out
to see
somewhere
more remote
smiling
at you
while
we row away from it all
touching
you
my
fingers running through your hair
your
head on my chest
arms
holding you tight
hearts
beat together
drift
off into the night
reality
lingers at the waters edge
mind
mind races
my
cloudy head
my
body aches
longs
for your touch
and
in the end
I
fear it's all lost
My
patterns return
like
the fish of the sea
eating
one another
surviving
another day
we're
not living
stuck
at sea
you're
all I need
to
stop growing me
and
I look around
and
realize your gone
the
facade of connection
when
I'm really all alone
Falling
Call
me up
Give
me the location
I'm
on my way
with
no hesitation
The
moments we share
never
last long
but
we have a ball
and
it's never boring
we
keep burning hot
with
no sign of slowing
she's
got my number
and
knows just how to play me
and
I wanna talk
but
she's not in the mood
and
I want to sulk
when
she's not around
Dear
God i'm resentful
and
afraid I've fallen
with
no one to help me
Navigate
these emotions
I
know I'm alone
Always
have been
I
just keep wanting more
more
love and affection
Seeing Again
A
chance encounter
I
see you again
You
look different
and
somehow the same
we
laugh and touch
play
games with our eyes
you
see my eye wrinkles
just
like old times
and
for a moment I
let
myself realize
how
much I like seeing you
how
I miss being with you
And
we say goodbye
with
plans to meet again
but
as we turn to walk away
I
know it won't happen
Because
we could have it
but
for how long
It
could be magical
before
reality returns
I've
loved since you
and
I saw what it was
Nothing
too special
We'll
have it with anyone
No Mistakes
This
could be the biggest mistake I've made
but
we'll never know, to rest it's been laid
and
we'll adapt and change
and
find a way to stay sane
and
at the end of the day
we'll
just sit there and say
it
was for the better
no
one will be wiser
but
I'll know it could've gone any way
and
I'm just sitting here waiting for the day
when
you crawl back and look in my eye
and
I'll see you learned, but we won't cry
cause
we adapt and change
find
ways to stay sane
our
days grow short
and
our nights get long
the
darkness lingers
a
little longer every time

Whirlwind
You
speak so violently
Jaw
tight, you'd sit and stew
I'd
just watch you quietly
never
really seeing you
And
in the end,
no one wins
and
you just look at me
You
never asked for what you wanted
I'd
never look into my own heart
And
in the end,
we grew apart,
what's
left now
Moving
away and changing jobs
Leaving
behind new found friends
Resumes,
walking,
interviews
and train-hopping
I
knew it'd be hard, but never take this long
parties,
faces,
names
and places
Turn
on's starting while my world keeps turning
Writing
like my hands on fire
flying
on the wings I've borrowed
dancing
with the fire snake
grooving
for my shadow's sake
I
feel a little like a child
looking
back on what we created
I
still think I hate you
for
what you hid
In
the end,
were you ever my friend,
you
stranger
Now
and then, I still think of you
and
our little dog too
Still
feels like
a hole in my heart,
and
I just wonder why
Living in the Machine
This
machine was
Built
for us
For
our future
For
people to prosper
Along
came,
Small
men
Who
Lacked love
But
not envy
They
put price tags on everything
Created
a new step in sharing
We
use the system
And
see the symptoms
Makes
us compete
To
make ends meat
And
we blame each other
For
simply being animal
The
charges lead
By
unhappy people
Living
unfulfilled Lives
Thinking
their past was better
Wanting
to Shrink all
To
their lowly level
Never
look to the top
To
the operators above
The
ones who create price tags
And
promise to keep 'em down
And
the operators fight
With
a new group to blame
Loads
of money raised
For
their new campaign
So
we all point and attack
And
It's always the same
Inside
this machine
We're
all still enslaved
The Burden Anthem
This
world was barren, but full of life
Empty
of buildings, and oh so ripe
And
the animals saw us, even at night,
But
they were helpless, we'd win the fight
On
civilizations, we woke up
Traveling
cross towns, knew what was right
The
congregations arose, just out of spite
And
some understood, they got to see light
And
we have leaders
But
we can lead ourselves
Who
do we become
When
the leaders lead us?
Idea
of money and job,
And all the steps involved
The
time and energy,
The system needs to evolve
Why
such an enemy,
And so removed from love
This
place is full of stories
And
the metaphors can travel everywhere
This
place is heaven and hell
It
can change at every corner
We
created this world
Created
these burdens
The
river may have been straight
But
we've made it perverted
And
some will say, "We're powerless"
And
really then the imagination's lost.
We
got ourselves in, can get ourselves out
Come
together to see what the big pictures about
Animal
I
will love you
Long as you stick around
Will you stay with me
Forever and for all time
They stop and stare at me
To point and talk and giggle
I don't wanna be seen
Just hide out in the shadows
I will love you
Long as you stick around
I don't need you
Except when I feel down
I wanna eat her out
Devour her entirely
Just to prove I could
Another notch on my belt
I will love you
Long as you stick around
I'm just an animal
Who gets lonely in the dark
Long as you stick around
Will you stay with me
Forever and for all time
They stop and stare at me
To point and talk and giggle
I don't wanna be seen
Just hide out in the shadows
I will love you
Long as you stick around
I don't need you
Except when I feel down
I wanna eat her out
Devour her entirely
Just to prove I could
Another notch on my belt
I will love you
Long as you stick around
I'm just an animal
Who gets lonely in the dark
Puffers
Seasons
changing
The
leaves falling
Moon
shining
My
breath freezing
Grab
my scarf
outta
storage
smells
like Puffers
My
old companion
Memories
of us
running
through the park
The
grass so green
the
Leaves piled up
Your
little dog smile
as
you frolic along
hiding
in the leaves
we
play our own games
tired
and sweaty
we
return home
both
in the shower
to
wash away the germs
Holding
you
against
my chest
Give
me dog kisses
just
to connect
smelling
your little paws
A
memory I can't forget
Winter's
here again
the
Leaves are brown
Maybe
I'll see you
playing
with some new friends
Game Over
She worshipped me
and I could see
what was happening
but I wouldn't concede
I pretended otherwise
to get my way
and ended on the otherside
with no games to play
and now I'm left
feeling spun out of control
no longer sure of what's up
no longer sure of where to go
feeling empty
a lack of myself
I'm hiding somewhere
under all the grief
Lap Dog
I wake up in the middle of the night
Another nightmare, givin me a fright
I see your face
I remember your games
Go back to the place
When nothing changed
And I wonder
And I wonder
Were we ever friends
Or just lovers
I see your name flashin on my phone
My heart starts to drop
I can't seem to let go
See images of you
With your other guys
Feeling small
Left by wayside
And I wonder
And I wonder
Were we ever friends
Or just lovers
What's wrong with me
Why can't I see
How I'm guilty
What's wrong with me
Why can't I see
The way she treated me
I can't keep you close
I gotta cut you loose
You're bringing me down
With all your frowns
I was never me,
Never good enough
You'd bitch me out,
Like you had it rough
I was caged and disciplined
I knew what was bad
Never learned the right way
You never wanted it good
And when I look back
I see what I was
I was just your lap dog
So loyal and dumb
You just put me down
Just put me down
And put me out
Into the ground
And I wonder
And I wonder
Were we ever friends
Or just lovers
And you say you're losing
Your very best friend
And I think to myself
This needs to end
Cause we were just
Just no longer friends
