Fall Better

Maybe there was just too much Fall stuff at work today, maybe my yard is just in a mess, and it’s no secret that God and I have had our problems, I have problems with everyday people. Fall Better, personally I wish we could just go straight to winter

And it was better, twinkle, twinkle, little star
but a man put them in reach
with a son of a preacher man to teach,
that I should not go too far.
So God did endeavor

to make just the only one
morning star, Satan was his answer,
man-made cancer.
It was better when I just called it the sun
God will you make an effort,

like asking the leaves to stay on the trees,
only didn’t we all fall down?
Every color better, green and white, yellow and red, gold and brown
Autumn leaves…
Come on God why would you ever

I mean was this another dare
for me to curse you, curse her, say something?
Made in your image a caveman grunting,
can we not be better, here and there?
Because God you gave me the letters

before the pedestal or the big mouth
My voice before my courage
These feelings only to discourage
It was better without a doubt
Tell me, God, why I met her

You know maybe, just this once, I can do better…

ACROSS From Calvary

I’m an atheist… as far as I’m concerned the so called greatest story ever told is just a crap movie like a really good story The Golden Compass. ACROSS From Calvary as if anyone cares about Jesus, he may not be the way but neither is the crap on TV.

Across from Calvary
People watch and moan
Oh No
Bieber just might be…
The next dancer to see…
X factor was known
An idol unknown
As Jesus maybe

Second in the coming
Zombie Apocalypse
Proof I insist
But there is nothing
Heavy is the cross
Following the last episode of LOST

Looking Dim

A month or so before a bad day, I know bad days are coming and I didn’t really want to say it back then or now; let’s just say it was like graduating high school, had nothing to do with me. Looking Dim, because the future wasn’t all that bright.

Aging in the black
Yet the light grows brighter
For life, I have no knack
My heart grew no lighter
The deck is stacked

So blow them out
So many candles
No name now
My vandals

A moment eyes closed
But their lips are wide
Think I don’t know
Teeth, fangs, and knives
I hope they choke

So knock them out
Feast of flesh
Smacking so loud
Why aren’t I dead yet

The dark sky
Shows all its victims
And who am I
But a cell in the system
No goodbye

So don’t look up
Can’t help but feel envy
I was never enough
Abomination, God murder me

Would you take my picture?
Make me famous
These vultures much richer
How I hope it’s painless
Suicide’s the pitcher

So don’t be in pictures
But the world will know
Maybe an itchy trigger finger
On with the show

Smoke and fire
Beats breathing
This light my desire
I should be leaving
Still, I won’t be admired

So don’t die
Rage, rage
Against the dying of the light
That you made

As you closed your eyes
The Abomination
Yet you wonder why
I chose such a sin
Finally in the light
That’s looking dim

Baby Like Boom

That’s what it felt like, you know how your heart skips a beat when you see her and when you finally feel it again well… this is the way the world ends or begins again. Baby Like Boom, now let’s see what’s reflected in the rubble, one of her, I wish.

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnH3za6zLAQ

Tell me… “I’m somebody’s baby”
Since when do angels deliver bad news?
Beautiful girl, what’s it like?

You tell him “you’ll always be my baby”
or “Love me like you do”
Feels like a nuclear strike

And I’m waiting for my atom bomb baby
Waiting for a girl LIKE you
Because psych

There goes my baby
Yeah, when the stars go blue
Is love blind or does it look alike

No Strings Attached… Or Wires

You can’t stop heartbreak when it happens, it happens, angels can be recalled, the sun and the moon fall only to rise again, but what about bombs? You can’t stop those when their falling, much like you can’t stop lovers. No Strings Attached… Or Wires

And what’s a couple of strings
Falling for you? Me too
Tell me, love me like you do
Or would you have me pretend
You’re my girl on fire

If I were like other men
Dreaming of you, of more, of sin
My desire

Be my atom bomb baby
Maybe, somehow
Only one man in town
So let me be him
World war three on satellite TV
How I feel about you and me
We lie here shyer

Thinking will you love me again
Is this love or is this the end
Lovers fall like bombs without wires

A Bright Excuse

Because it’s much too soon, because it’s too late, you don’t know what love is or even how to begin; start with hello. I go to bed thinking tomorrow… I’ll say something tomorrow; a bit doomsday but “A Bright Excuse” just can’t tell her anything.

And there are those nights
that feel like the end of the world

But I love you
World War Three on Pay TV
Only I’m dreaming of a girl
Is that right?

Love me like you do
While an atom bomb baby
Serves as just another excuse

Air Cupid

I’ve asked for a pretty girl, I’ve asked for love, I’ve asked for everything, but the courage to just say hi but better to ask for air itself. Others find love with my words, the invisible man, or playing Cyrano de Bergerac. Air Cupid…

Do you think they breathe in Heaven?

Is that what this is?

Could be conserving the air supply

Saving the world, you and I

We could be heroes, if we try

For just one more kiss

Doomsday clock says eleven

fifty-nine… it’s not fair

 

When I only just found you

And you leave me breathless

But you stay with me

My atom bomb baby

Watching world war three, on pay TV

Unless

You want to love me like you do

Because I’m not scared

 

Of all the fallout

From comets or bombs, thirteen women

Yet you’re the one that I love

Only am I enough

Let’s go see, the world up above

To the stars, to the limit

Teach me, what love is all about

I want you… more than I can bear

 

Three little words, do I dare

Cause I am barely breathing

What is this I’m feeling?

Seeing you, I’m believing

love is in the air

Falling Us

On the third day… I had a revelation… three little words “I love you”, most days the word love goes about all willy nilly but when we’re at the end I think that’s all we want to hear. Somebody loves us, I can’t say it to just some girl… Falling Us

So maybe it’s not a cape

But you’re not Lois Lane

Talk about bad news

Maybe… we’ll be happy

If the world keeps spinning round

 

For at least my heart was found

Before it was too late

Moon waxes and wanes

against a new golden hue

Watch World War Three, On Pay TV

 

Oh won’t you Stay With Me

Because I don’t hear a sound

While the world is reshaped

And people go insane

Isn’t that love… who knew?

 

You could love me like you do

My Atom Bomb Baby

Incoming and inbound

Only I don’t want to escape…

again, don’t run from the pain

 

We’ll watch the bombs rain

down and I will still love you

“I love you”… too late or too early

Yeah those words are bound

To fly away

 

Here’s to hoping, WE never find the ground

Brighter Love

Someone asked me about the first girl I ever loved… we were never together yet do I regret that she is in my heart, maybe forever? I want more than one night but I also want love and in the end, I just don’t want to be alone. Brighter Love

So I’ll pretend they’re all wishes

In-between kisses

Seeing stars and a hundred new

With each and every second

How Bizarre

 

is this thing they call love

And I’m not running because

Another second or two

Like Armageddon

I’ll forget how it starts

“I love you?”

Now that is the question

The answer’s not far

 

Only it’s not enough

God knows, what we are made of

Or if you would love me like you do

Maybe I’ll never see you again

*sigh* If I had one more star

 

Yet I see the light

Just if this is the end… tonight

Tomorrow, you would be the one I choose

Here on earth, as it is in Heaven

Wherever you will go, is where WE are
