Number Six

Poem: nuMbEr 6 Friday, July 29, 2005

Days are growing longer
My time is running out
Should I keep on searching
Hope someday you find out

I lie awake at night and stare
You awake me unaware
Dreams of you stream through my head
I know that feeling anywhere

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?

Walking through the morning dew
Its cold against my feet
Naked in the grassy moonlight
Toes frozen in the wind

Hold me close in the dark
Never lose me in the night
Until tomorrow comes again
Keep we warm in the rain

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?

Alone I can no longer be
I need you here with me
Pretend that you love me
And I’ll pretend your mine

Don’t wanna be alone to think
Minds abyss I’d sink
Can’t erase you from my head
Don’t wanna forget

Tried not to analyze
What I saw with my two eyes
I watch you look at me
Can you stay the night

Each day I find excuse
To sneak into your view
Can you feel it too?
What can this become?

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?

Never

Poem: NeVEr Friday, July 29, 2005

Never meant to hurt you
Never knew I did
If I knew then what I know now
It never would have been

I didn’t know how to tell you
Didn’t know what you would say
Didn’t mean to hurt you
I’ll be gone yesterday

I asked to look back
Find where it came from
No sense in getting lost
In something that he’s done

Forever to forgive me
Understand your heart wont give
You told me nothings changed
But I can’t let go, I didn’t know

I’ll take you down
It’ll all be fine
Then you’ll go away
And wont be mine

Forever to forgive me
The fault isn’t mine
You’ve said nothings changed
But yet you’ve gone away

God Knows It Isn't Me

Poem: God kNowS IT ISnT ME Thursday, July 28, 2005

Blow away in the breeze
Forget the troubles of yesterday
Nothing as it seems
Walk along the shore
Reflect what’s unknown

Can you take my hand
Join me on a journey
We can learn together
All that we don’t know

Follow the path that guides
Beneath the starlit sky
Universe illuminating
Heavy rest upon me

What is it you long for
What is in your dream
Who is it you see
God knows it isn’t me

Fold Up in You

Poem: FoLd Up In YoU Wednesday, July 27, 2005

I want to fold up in you
And listen to you breathe
We can watch the thunder
And the wind against the trees

Storm bolts against the sky
Rain falls upon the roof
And I just lay here peaceful
Next to you
The pace of you’re heart soothing
In tune with how you’re moving

Keep me safe from harm
Resting within your arms
I can feel you smell my hair
And run your fingers through
I wonder what it is about you
And I smile out loud

You think I’m asleep
And I pretend to be
I hear your thoughts
And I can touch your words
Keep them as my own

Silently I’ll wait
I wont say a word
But I can taste forever in the air

You are a Disease

Poem: YoU ARe A DiSeASe Friday, July 29, 2005

When you claim reason
You lie
If you had the chance
You’d cheat
You steal
You stole a part of me

You are a disease
More contagious then that lingers
You had your swarm surrounding me
You are a disease

You made me fall
you think it was funny
scrapped up and bleeding
wrapped up tight in solitude
at least I’m safe from you

You are a disease
More contagious then that lingers
You had your swarm surrounding me
You are a disease

You don’t know
How good you would have it
Then watch me walk away
Cause you cant have it

You are a disease
More contagious then that lingers
You had your swarm surrounding me
You are a disease

In the Backseat of Your Car

Poem: baCKSeAt Of Your Car Friday, July 29, 2005

In the backseat of your car
Driving far from where you are
Her soft lips rest on mine
And I can hear your thoughts
Your song echoes in my head
But I don’t care
I don’t claim innocence
I don’t seek perfection
Laidback in circumstance

Crumpled papers at my feet
Rhythm of the road beneath the seat
Step outside and we converse
Lost in what you might say
Dazed at the words displayed
Take a moment, smell the grass
Its youth like this won’t sense the past

She sits and waits
Robbed of youth,
And its not known
I can’t foresee the futures toll
Ripped from my arms
She disappears
Alone in her fears

Can't Have Me Down

Poem: Can't HAVe me DOWn Friday, July 29, 2005

You do nothing for me anymore
Guess I should’ve known
There’s only up to go
Grab my Disney stock and run

You may have a guitar
But I play in the band
You may make it big
But I don’t want to hold your hand

Your working toward a degree
Even if it takes a year or two
But I’ve got you beat
Already have two

A little older
A whole lot more mature
Don’t know what you wanted
But this hearts pure

The world is a competition
Lets face it... Capitalism
Got a full time job
While you lounge
Scrounge up the cash for 1 big Mac
You do ahead and borrow
Sure it feels fine
Some day I’ll own you

Spawn of what I know
From all that I don’t know
Years sure make a difference
If this is what I know

I see that I had purpose
I know that you have none
Can’t have me down to what you are
Can’t have me down not that far

Can't

Poem: CAn'T Friday, July 29, 2005

Can’t sleep
Can’t speak
Can’t breathe
And I don’t mind

I leave just for a minute
Just for a little while
Your words echo in my mind
Sincerity it seems
And I want to believe

Your not like all the rest
And so I see
The part of you
That aches for me

You say my name
I can’t hold back
I smile out loud
To have you by my side
I’ll stay a while


Can’t sleep
Can’t speak
Can’t breathe
And I don’t mind

I want to please you
I want to keep you
To make you smile
Make you long for me
the way I need you
For all of time I’d …
Ahhh... to be with you

The spell I’m under
Love control
Words no reason
Only time will tell

Can’t sleep
Can’t speak
Can’t breathe
And I don’t mind

Can’t sleep
Can’t speak
Can’t breathe
And I don’t mind

Goodbye

Poem: GoOdBYe Friday, July 29, 2005

Is it as easy as you say?
To turn around
To walk away
It’s not as easy as it seems
To say goodbye,
Forever

So long…
We were together so long
So wrong…
Everything went so wrong

If we could jump back
Change time

Would the world believe
That you’re all mine

But its not that easy
To forget the past
To forgive it all
And begin anew

Is it as easy you say?
To turn around?
To walk away?
It’s not as easy as it seems?
To say goodbye,
Forever

I try to forgive
The lies you said
The things you did
Leave the past behind

Can we lapse to friends?
Withstand the end
Move on to better things
Alone together

Is it as easy as you say?
To turn around?
To walk away?
It’s not as easy as it seems
To say goodbye,
Forever

Life's Lyrics

Poem: LifE'S LyrIcS Friday, July 29, 2005

Life’s not all that bad
Despite hard times we’ve had
It’ll all turn out fine
If you stay the night

Don’t tell me that you can’t
That you have things to do
Don’t tell me you don’t care
That someone’s on your mind
Don’t tell me you don’t want me
We’ve been down that road before

Laying here beside you
Caught looking in your eyes
It’s just not, what it seems
Can you fulfill my dreams?

Don’t tell me that you can’t
That you have things to do
Don’t tell me you don’t care
That someone’s on your mind
Don’t tell me you don’t want me
I’ve been down that road before

I’ll be your sunlit daydream
If the clouds fade to black
We’ll waste each others time
Keep your thoughts in sink with mine




Don’t tell me that you can’t
That you have things to do
Don’t tell me you don’t care
That someone’s on your mind
Don’t tell me you don’t want me
I’ve been down that road before

Imagine what’s going through my head
I remember everything, you said
Alone in uncertainties
Intrigued by possibilities

Don’t tell me that you can’t
That you have things to do
Don’t tell me you don’t care
That someone’s on your mind
Don’t tell me you don’t want me
I’ve been down that road before

Stolen Love

Poem: SToLen LoVe Friday, July 29, 2005

Can’t concentrate,
The way I should
It’s not the way I am
I know its wrong

You’re on my mind
You’ve grabbed a hold
It isn’t fair
You think that I don’t care

It’s not what I say or do
Can’t change the way it is
Someone’s getting hurt
It won’t be you
It isn’t me
Guilt is shining through

How will I tell her
What would I say
Would she make it through the day

I lost control
stole the love that wasn’t mine
only to end in time

I don’t expect the world
That’s true
I don’t want to lose a friend
Like you
time is running out
my fate sealing fast

Can she forgive
All that I did
Then to understand
intentions were not wrong
I longed to make her see
He wasn’t right for her
Never meant that he could be
Not right for me

There is no love
I gotta walk away
Speak in silence
just end the game
He wasn’t mine, stolen anyway

Forever

Poem: forEvEr Friday, July 29, 2005

Curled up next to you
Your sweet breath
Against my neck
Your body
Dancing on my skin
Tangled up in you
Dreaming of forever
I can feel your love around me
But I won’t say a word

We should runaway together
To a world become our own
Nothing’s wrong together
Lost in thoughts eternal

You’re all that I’d need
You’ll have all that I am

They say nothing lasts forever
But, I’m not scared
Ask me for my hand
You’ll get all I am

San Jose

Poem: SaN JosE Friday, September 29, 2003

Oh there’s a way
To San Jose
When you’re dreaming
And the sheets are thread with gold

Everybody’s saying no
No, that’s not the way to go
Have they led me in the wrong direction?

Can I take you home with me?
And show you all I know
And some of what I don’t know
And some of what you don’t know



Roast beef and pot roast in the oven
And apples in the air… Everywhere
We’re like peas and carrots and your such a little girl
People walking in off the street
Tap the window by my feet


Will you follow if I began to lead?
There’s only one way to go
To the meadow lit by sunlight
Colored by flowers
Tangled in her hair… everywhere



And no one is there to see
But you and me
And the world has fallen deep asleep
That’s the way it should be
In these shadows we shall stay


Just tow down the line
I’m the one that’s left behind
Barefoot all the time


As long as it may take


Driving on the way
And boy it’s cold outside
The only light I can see
The reflection of what I used to be

No one is watching
And everybody knows
Not today
Not tomorrow
But someday
