Crazy creations
Laced with imperfection
Echoin dustbins
A voice from above
Crashed in your head
Says if that’s all you got
You might as well quit
Cause before you make a hit
You’re gonna be dead
No you aint got what it takes
So just forget the dream
Let the cream curdle
And skip the hurdle
Unclench your fists
And forget the wish
Lay the past to rest
And put this love to bed

Rain starts fallin
Leaves a pain in the heart
Aint nothin anyone can do or say
To take it away
Don’t wanna step on minds
Or trip a land mine
Just can’t help it
If your heart is callin
From every beat ignorin
Runnin and avoidin
Like a hound dog maulin
Stallin with fate
And never too late
Here to stay
Better make it…make it be ok
Take the dream of one day
Holdin love’s grenade
In open palms
Won’t let em close
Slippin in the mud
And grippin too hard
To stop the blood
When it’s already blown
We’re already sown
Never gonna be alone
Never gonna be gone
That blue rose bud
Was left in a sling
Off to be slung
From the bass clef
Of a lover’s song
Left in the hands
For someone else to sing

 

It’s hard on the outskirts

Watchin love fall apart

Hearts darting about

Bags packed like outlaws

Next train outta town

Easy come easy go

Souls lost and in doubt

Nothin we can do

To free their pain

Mistrust n disdain

Helpless on the sideline

Dusty roads windin

Winds blindin

Brings me back to you

Makes what we got

So much more

A solid core

Forevermore

Can never close that door

(tbc…)

 

Your love should be rainin down over me
Instead you’re just short-changin me
Ignorin me yeah you cause this fire to burn
In the heart of my soul
A yearn for what i’m missin
But I’m gonna win cause I aint ever givin in
Love can’t kill me just ignite our tree
Down the forrest that stands in our way
I’ll bomb the shell of your absence
With my godgiven presence
And you will feel me right there in your heart

 

 

I’m not sad just broken down

Soul shattered mosaic on the sand

Cause I can’t recall the chords

So I can’t play with ya Black Chord Hoodie

(Oh Lord) Sun dial pointin at quarter to

I need my page pressed in colour

From our place I know we’re safe

But can’t recall the code to unlock our truth

Forgotten mode

It’s like i’m on the outside

When I should be on the inside

I don’t wanna cry

Dried up cold-pressed like a Dessert Rose  

Funny how one week feels like a million years

Even though it’s sunny and the bees are buzzin wild

Runnin from this mad house

I guess we’re signed n sealed

Yes I guess we got the real deal

I guess this is how love feels

Dark silence a pittance in the heart

Starin mirror sculptured into a grinnin grim reaper

He’s laughin at me yeah he’s torturin me

Now all I got is paper and a blanket of white

So i’ll scrape away the plight and put up a fight

World tilted now & i’ve fallen even deeper

Drownin core leanin even steeper

How’my gonna turn it around hands tied

Maybe I died maybe I cried maybe i’m tried

Maybe they lied and that’s why i’ll never be his bride

Bein here i’m even Madder tortured by the ladder

Even tempered even Madder 

 

It’s not what you say it’s how you say it

It’s not what you do it’s how you do it

I mean, let’s face it

No-one really speaks the truth

Somethin we’re all cravin

Swoopin down like a Raven 

Are them thoughts that never quite reach

When ya misbehavin

Stampin out the butts onto the pavin

Them doors open n closin

Gettin closer to Jehovah

Be buzzin onto ya red roser

On ya bed-shirt sufferin

Suffocatin when silence comes

Hallucinatin while ya heart’s racin

Facin the sun burnt by the breeze

Bees on the freeze

Jesu strapped to the trees

Swoopin down like a Raven 

Trance track (lyrics)… to give to Markus Schulz.  No melody as yet. Something to work on over weekend.  The lyrics are a kind of plea for help.  Everyone needs a mentor.

Standin where you been

Anticipatin the dream

Lookin up so high

Countin stars in the sky

Yeah I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

??

To turn the key unlock my sea

Free em tears of fire

This lifelong desire

Straight from the heart

Right from the start

You were the first love

You’ll be the last

Everything else is just the past

Can’t run from chance

When soul turned to destiny

 

What’s meant for me

Standin where you been

Anticipatin the dream

Lookin up so high

Countin stars in the sky

Yeah I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

I’ve been waitin I keep waitin

I’ve been waitin I keep waitin…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gotta knotta fire started out inside

All them years ago now it’s unstoppable

Wear it inside out cause through em years

It’s been burnin down my house

Ain’t nothin ever gonna douse it out now

Shout it out to the universe this never endin golden curse

Cause I gotta have it astronomical

I wanna have the impossible, the unattainable

Hurts so good it sucks, oh yeah, it’s fluffy ducked

Every now n then jolts the vow to never give in

Ignition to the drive a reminder to strive

Still feel it like a bloated unamed nemo

A salt water fish swimmin in a bowl of piss

Shattered ground are we runnin outta time

Oh my god, when’my gonna be found

Before it’s too late before i’m buried underground?

I wanna believe in back to the future

So when my clock strikes five n i’m barely alive

You’ll arrive like a thunderbolt in the nick of time

Travel back to the start n fix the fluffy duck-ups

But then again ain’t nobody perfect

Only a lover gonna see you as a ten outta ten

And when I met you I was wearin O2

Spinnin déjà vu into 2 live crew

Never knew bout the color blue

Till I looked at you n dropped that midnight hue

Kung the fu, cork the screw n walk the due

But I ain’t ever givin up on you

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I keep finding little bits of ‘incomplete’ writing.   Wrote this one on the Qantas flight to UK 🤔

28 January 2018

Two years prior like Mariah was up so high but this time round I got my bro to the side

Vacant seat the other side 

Comin up to forty four next month but right about now its been 48 hours without the shutter’s down 

I feel there’s not too much left of me now 

I’m the Ali G made into biltong 

Straight out the billabong 

Like eighty eight acid been sprayed in my face n down the aisle 

There goes my left eyeball 

(So so tired…)
