CYNICISM

When your cynicism ends, where will you go? the bitter, the used, my bottomless shoes, where will you lay them? you walked a mile and thought that youd traveled the world, but youre not done and you think youre growing old, and you are, begin again in earths sour flow, come to my arms and kiss what you know, I've learned your name through faces youve worn, so you can spare me from pretending that we're done, then we both fall down, we're tumbling like dominos, caught by being contemplative, scared of being integrated-educated-over-rated, doctor come and operate! I cant have a happy time, can I not live a happy lie? Boy meets a girl, shes the world, and breathtaking in evenings, shes sent from above, hes in love, but only on the weekends, begin again in earths sour flow, come to my arms and kiss what you
know, I've learned your name through faces youve worn, so you can spare
me from pretending that we're done- I KNOW we're NEVER done! so whats it like to learn that you are everything you hate?! I bet its great, it frees you from moral constraints, there is truth in your lies, thats no surprise, its popping up everywhere, but theres lies in your truth, you are confused if you thought you had a purpose, dont be angry, youre so self righteous, you act as if I dont like Jesus! but hes a path not a place, a way not a face, and if you dont know that! well then we've got a PROBLEM see! because I HATE you! and you probably hate me too! I dont mind, no its fine, but you should give me some space (shake like a rattlesnake) hey YOU youre PATHETIC! I WANT YOU TO ADMIT IT!!!!!!! with your hip scarves and hip shoes I dont think I like you, its either that or I'm in LOVE with you its either that or I'm in love, its a fine line sometimes
BOYFRIEND

Hell-O Madame, nice to meet you
lets find out what I might teach you!
Powder your nose dear, paint your toes dear
I'll show you some things I know dear!
Oh wont you come with me
Lets see whats here to see
No my dear, not much to fear, here, you will get your way
Dont be lonely!
Who needs a Boyfriend!
I'll be there when you need care, just call me on my phone
But dont tell me all your secrets dear! no, knowing me I'd never keep
them dear, its safer still to keep them secret, make new ones up! and
I'll believe them
Wont you come with me again
and see whats here to see again
No my dear, not much to fear, here, you will get your way
cause its a cold cold night on the streets tonight, and its a cold cold
night to be home all alone, you know we should work something out,
could work something out, lets work something out
Dont be Lonely!
Who needs a boyfriend!
I'll be there when you need care, I'll be there when you need care
oh LOVE you LOVE you, girl I could love you
hold you, HOLD you, hold you throught the cold COLD night time
OUR time! the time that we lie to ourselves, time time has just slipped
through our fingers

BULL AND SCORPION

Save me, save me, love I'm feeling crazy
I've fallen for the emptiness inside myself
its danger, danger, dangerous to feel
so pour another glass and let the record play
shes lovely, lovely, pretty like her pictures
a shadow casting sunlight through her tear-stained eyes
we were drinking, laughing, oh we were such hip kids
she kissed me in a graveyard cause we had no homes to go to
the symbolisms understated, oh no
now the bull and the scorpion, theyve been dying since they first held
on
she stings me, stings me, destroys me as she feeds me
shes always clothed in red in times of love and war
I'm helpless, helpless, helpless to defend
my stubborn nature dictates I come back for more
oh no love, its written in the stars above
so the bull and the scorpion, theyve been dying since they first held
on
We must have lost our senses, look how the stars are aligned against us
you, you dont know how to love me, me I dont know how to love you girl
we must have lost our senses, look how the stars have aligned against
ut!
doomed to fall apart forever...
at least we'll fall together
And I cannot sleep! and I cannot breathe! this blood that we bleed the
fire it feeds, and the battle drums pound as the skies pull us down, we
refuse to concede this love, we need, though it tires us out and it
fills us with doubt, we will earn ever scar in our war with the stars,
you lift me up, you tear me down, this love that we makes the world
spin round, and I will never let go!

JOAN OF ARC

Your painted skin tells its stories of past pain and glory
I'd like to read every line with my fingertips tracing each intricate storyline
I've tried, my love to deny all the pain that I cause just by standing here
and I'd leave but love I'm deceived by the tears in your eyes that you need me here
oh my tear stained lady, please dont cry
we can RIGHT our wrongs dear as we LAY among thorn covered sheets, where our bodies meet again
my bearded face holds its place so it says to your eyes that theres nothing wrong
but look beyond, love I'm not so strong that world could fall down and I'd still stand tall
no I've died
love something inside....
but the tears poured out backwards, fell down my throat
now my voice is drowning within or I'd reach out and tell you that you are loved
oh my tear stained lady, DONT YOU CRY
we will WRITE our wrongs HERE
as we lie among thorn covered sheets where our bodies meet again
So THIS is how it feels to be a martyr
this is how it feels to be convicted for your principals, principals?
the cost is MUCH too terrible.... UNbearable, UNBEARABLE
Penance is Eternal HERE!!!!
THIS is how it feels to be a MADMAN!
this is how it feels to be mistaken for a Gentleman, Gentle Man?
OH NO I AM A FEARSOME MAN
Tinder man, Wicker man so Strike a spark I'LL BURN US DOWN!!
DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN, down
