Citizens For A Hard Work Free Society
I tell you, it's amazing
You're so lazy
Don't want to give it
What you got
What you've got is nothing
It's nothing
But that won't phase me
I'm not the one going crazy
Trying to keep up
With what they bought
'cause what they bought
Is nothing... it's nothing
Listen citizen babies
Society of daisies
Hard work has made me
What I'm not
A free and righteous robot
And roaming...

Question
Early post... this week we're having a short-song double-whammy. Stay tuned!
I heard the sound of a question
Reaching for the other side
Of noise and tar
Trying a mischievous
Joke in possession
Declining every offer
To flame the spark since gone
Lean on my stripes and spots
Ask the question
Drag the cross
Beside a trusted to find
Be my guest just
Ignore any signs
(That is way off!)
One's been accused and arrested
Another's going to win the
Pillow plumber prize
Unless a drop from the roof top
Kills this rhyme, then
We'll hafta let funeral flowers decide
Take the sickle
Bring the cycle
To an end
Break the circle
Let the hypocrites dress you
For your own party

Only Now
Ready for the kiss of the giraffes G A They were standing in the halls E As if they weren't too tall G That's not their fault Bmsus Am Yes, you have to do something Em A If you want to feel better E The world is waiting Arms crossed G A foot tapping the ground A E It's only now G It's only now Bm Am Em Just when I thought that I was done A They were singing "you have to E G start all over again" A E I don't listen to these men G Bm This time I'm moving on Am Em Even being alone Bm Am You will always be remembered Em For trees and flowers Bm Ships that sailed Am Beyond these walls Em To waterfalls A Where we run out of E Things to say and G Live for the moment Bm Am Yes, you have to do something Em If you want life to be better A E You can't help but paint G The world sweet and sour Bm Am Yes, you have to do something Em A If you want to feel better E The world is waiting Arms crossed G A foot tapping the ground A E It's only now… G Bm Only now Am Em A E G Bm Am Em (fade)

Spiraling
When you feel down
Think of this spiral galaxy
You're in now
And you're spinning
Round and round
And round and round
It never ends despite this desperation
If the sun doesn't make it hot
It's just a bright dot
In your home spot
Another wave that says
Yohoo! Here I am!
You who? Here I am!
When you feel small
Ask what's this subatomic
Junk I never realized
Was here before
And it keeps jumping
Up and down and up and down
Up and down and up and down
It's never found
Drag you in
Don't have a cow
But look around
If time ever bends, it waves

Playing The Scar
I haven't found the people
I can't see
That's why I tell you the social life
Is not for me
I set these things in motion
Set them free
And use the rest of the magic
To put me to sleep
I come across the tragic
Fleeting as years
Still haven't found a solution
For my growing fears
We dissolve the reasons
Feelings appear
Blurred focus in anger
Knows who is here
At least I fought
Yeah, I fought
Now I'm playing the scar
Playing the scar inside
I haven't found the people
I can't see
It's not for me
I set these tricks/dreams in motion
As they love to be
Use the rest of the magic
To set me free

History
Now
Take back your crown
Put it down
Say it out loud
"I'm not so proud"
Of these words
Hear the wind
It's still
I was wrong
No clear thoughts or sounds
To adjust your history
You can be a leaf in the wind
Just to find your memories
Seize the moment
Or leave a hole
Inside your soul
The one you left behind
Is waiting for you
Come next time
No clear thoughts or sounds
To adjust your history
You can be a leaf in the wind
Just to find your memories
Life threw these
Choices before you
One leads to misery
The other, just the same
In a grateful way
What you know for sure
Is that something
Will work out
While something else
Goes wrong…
No clear thoughts or sounds
To adjust your history
You can be a leaf in the wind
Just to find your memories
No clear thoughts or sounds
To adjust your history
You can be a leaf in the wind
Just to find your memories
There is no mystery now
You're as sad as a lyric sheet
I would be a leaf in the wind
Just to find you a melody
You can be a leaf in the wind just to find your memories.

Angled Truth
I could signify
Any mess in this room
Practice breaking rhyme
Swing a pendulum, too
I write plenty of letters
Read nothing new
Coming right on over
To relieve your doom
Need confetti and light
Need some record glue
Meter rhyme and sign
Pretend that I knew
Never mind
The damned have sinned in
Love that swam
Down in singles
I'll be silent
To prove that you don't know
Crawling out
Instead of sitting
Half-second loss
Trying to rescue my crew
If I connect the dots
Like it, too
Like it too much
Will I get through
Exactly now
An embellished tongue
Twists round you
When the seas are red
And the ships are blue
Nervous silence
Uhhh
Undecided
Swerve peel and slide
Undecided
Crossing through
Found a massive thread
Hugging tight the spool
Set sail south
Pin your hopes to my ears
It could change your life
Could burn it, too
From inside the track
An angled truth
In the aftermath
We have oil crude
We might decide
To take your side
(see you)
Ramble on that perspective.
