Apartment #38

When you're alone within the dark
You realize that life wasn't the same
When you're alone within the four walls
You reminisce on a fading past
When your alone and you've peaked your mark
You realize that life was a game
When your alone and you hear God's beckoning call
You know that great things never last
Will the family lay down a tear?
Will the family be compassionate to weep?
Photographs and 8-Track Tape
Death cards and music sheets
Ragged furniture and a pile of dirty plates
Is all of what's left in his life
Old clothes and cheap rope
College degrees and father's first dollar
Captain Crunch and reused soap
Is all of what's left in his life
Will the family give into his fear?
Will the family admire his life?
Will the family say goodbye?

Epic
02:18

If you're bogged down by the foot of death
Rise up, to new nomadic measures
Protect all the kindness given from the devil
And enter a new epic level
Princess and kings fuck in the wind
To burry your beaten soul
If you can only prove to them in the night
You can show them your epic fight
End the strife and take a deep breath
And break the whore's pleasures
Only you can kick their sins
And show royalty what life tolls
You're epic enough to pursue and persist
Just close your heart son and cleanse your fist

Breath of Life

Swim and grab a breath of life
Swallow the pride that over shadows love
Grab my hand and give it some knowledge
So the endless fields don't seem so long
Wash your hands in a holly pool of lies
Cleanse your sadness with an aching heart
Watch the time slip by in an hour glass
And burry your wisdom under your hand
Midnight sand glowing in the dark
Playing in an out of tune band
Is my reason to embark
Run through your unbearable strife
Laugh in the face of propaganda cries
That kills your humor and unconditional love
And tells you how to play your part
Midnight sand glowing in the dark
Playing in an out of tune band
Is my reason to embark
Stop and just give me some knowledge
Time is slipping by so fast
Lord please answer why I am not dead
So the endless fields don't seem so long
Midnight sand glowing in the dark
Playing in an out of tune band
Is my reason to embark

Eclipse

In the heart of the sun, my burning desire flames on
To be in your arms, setting the controls along side with you
So hold me close until the next day comes around
I'll be your eclipse and shield you from the night
When I fall asleep, I see nothing but you shining on
Against all the odds, I don't know what to do
Except to hold you close until the morning birds make a sound
I'll be your eclipse and make you feel alright
You know I'll stand by you when we walk down that uncertain street
You know I'll stand by you and give you the strength that you need
You know I'll stand by you and help you through troubled times
So baby darling please won't you be my wife
Fifty years down the line, we've been through many truths and lies
But when I look into your eyes. I'm blessed that you took my lead
And follow my heart to protect each other from defeat
Thanks for being the eclipse in my life
Thanks for being the eclipse in my life

Diplomatic lawyers pressing charges on a new born life
Leaves feelings of hostility and blood
And as the new kid along that old dusty road
You have no idea what it means to be free
The cold touch on the black prison bar
The taste of mold and death in the air
Makes you cry and shout like a premature child
Because you realize that there's no way out of here
Tonight, tonight, tonight, prove yourself wrong
Tonight, tonight, tonight, make a clean run
Tonight, tonight, tonight, lick the salt in your tears
Tonight, tonight, tonight, crush the child in your heart
Swallow the bullet and take out the knife
And dig yourself out of the polluted flood
Run my son the spotlight is on your goad
And the men with the dogs will never let you be
Tonight, tonight, tonight, prove yourself wrong
Tonight, tonight, tonight, make a clean run
Tonight, tonight, tonight, put away all of your fears
Tonight, tonight, tonight, the inner child will part
So then you realize that you were not up to par
And your soul cries out that this life isn't fair
You hold your hand out as you crawl back into the wild
Because you realize that there's no way out of here
Tonight, tonight, tonight, prove yourself wrong
Tonight, tonight, tonight, make a clean run
Tonight, tonight, tonight, start to count the years
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tell yourself not to depart

Whiskey Breath

Drunken sorrow in tea cup
Find the truth in a fable
Riddled in hope, wonder and lost souls
Smoking and coughing out of wood bowls
With a politician's anger over the cable
Over love, laughter and whiskey breath
I need you here
I need you here
To witness our constitution
I need you here
Broken legs and dried out eyes
Paralyzed minds and binary ties
Are in the government road of our death
I need you here
I need you here
To witness our restitution
I need you here
I need you here
I need you here
I need you here
I need you here

Last Call

The window pane fades the colors
Gathers dust on the past
In the hope that someone would figure the puzzle
And put the troubled soul to rest at last
