A bond that was formed
Many years ago
A shared experience
Of misery and woe
And although we felt
Our ills in abundance
Still we emerged
Utterly triumphant
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
A bond that was formed
Many years ago
A shared experience
Of misery and woe
And although we felt
Our ills in abundance
Still we emerged
Utterly triumphant
‘I guess I should have let you win…’
I can’t seem to shake the feeling
He said
That you’re just trying to lure me in
But all I do is sing songs
She said
With wickedly flirtatious grin
Windows To The Soul
I
stare
into
your
eyes
He
said
And
wonder
what’s
buried
so deep
Songs
to
make
you
smile
She
said
With
words
to
make
you
weep

I know that you
Will understand
When the play button
You press
As the songs I’ve picked
My love for you depict
In ways I
Could ever express
Mix Tapes
You could just say how you feel
He said
Instead of sending me a song
But these folks are professionals
She said
And I’d only get it wrong

‘You don’t want me now
But I’m gonna change your mind
Someway, somehow, oh baby…’
“But I don’t really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first”
‘I will do better in the morning…’
I must be one of those people
Who really gets off on pain
As since he died
On this song I’ve imbibed
Again and again and again
Masochism
Every time
I hear
this song
It brings
tears to
my eyes
And pain
to my
heart
A reminder of
all I’ve come
to despise
And how
we’ll forever
be apart
I should
just press
stop
Switch
off the
laptop
And
walk
away…

‘All my tears have been used up
On another love….’
It would’ve saved a lot of time
She said
Had I walked away long ago
Oh please don’t kid yourself
She said
You’d still have lived a life of woe
‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go’
If
someone
told me
then
How all
this
would
end
I’d pack
a bag
and run
away
And not
even
bother
to pretend

A bit niche, perhaps…
But if you know, you know
‘Always So Lost In The Dark…’
It’s 10.15 on a Friday night and excitement builds all around.
Saturday Waits as the promise of Spidermen and Caterpillars abound.
Like all those Japanese Babies who tumbled through the gate,
I Burn for tales of Cagey Tigers, and dream of Dogs that Shake.
Then I am reminded, as I Move To The Beat,
Why you Imaginary Boys look good enough to eat.
I’m So Glad I Came. To be here On A Night Like This.
If only it could End with Just One (Strawberry) Kiss.
Yet out to The Edge Of The Green Sea I’m cast,
Wondering if this Lost and Lonely feeling will last.

‘I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing…’
‘And if you’re in love
Then you are the lucky one
‘Cause most of us are bitter
Over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts
From ever missing them
But I’m forever missing him
And you caused it…’
‘I’m tired of the song that sorrow sings…’
‘Chimes sing Sunday morn
Today’s the day she’s sworn
To steal what she never could own
And race from this hole she calls home‘
‘Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine…’
‘Time time time
See what’s become of me’
Well it’s the same room but everything is different…’
‘But she only comes when she’s on top…’
‘When the truth is found to be lies,
And all the joy within you dies…’
‘Thank God I found the good in goodbye…’
Nobody says ‘potahto’
‘And I’m wasted all the time
I’ve gotta drink you right off of my mind…’
‘I hate people when they’re not polite…’
‘The freedom that you wanted back
Is yours for good, I hope you’re glad’
‘Feel sick and dirty,
More dead than alive…’
‘You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I’ll ask for the sea…’
‘Cause on you my tattoo will be bleeding
and the name will stain…‘
‘Now that I know that I’m breaking to pieces
I’ll pull out my heart and I’ll feed it to anyone’
‘More than this
You know there’s nothing…’
