SHE

She gets lonely when nobody's holding her

She can't be alone

Sometimes she lyes awake

She can't take it when

She don't know what she wants

She can't see that far

Her eyes long for the stars

She can't bleed this much

All at once, all at once

She feels empty when nobody's listening

So she don't say a word

She gets so undone,

Not the only one

She just likes to hurt

She can't see that far

Her eyes long for the stars

She can't bleed this much

All at once, all at once

With nothing to lose

There's no sign of the truth

But the water she spills from her eyes

With nothing to fear

How they all disappear

From the moment she opens her eyes

She's never been loved

Or so she says,

No one would know

She's never seen love

Or so she says,

No one would know

A DARK LOVE SONG

Long long time ago, My mother told me
As far as she knows lovin' was only
For those who love themselves, and it ain't for no one else
And you've got to hold inside, a certain amount of pride
Long long way from home, seems I've forgotten
All that I was told, and the heartache is starting
Cause those who love themselves, aren't enslaved to no one else
And they don't have to compromise,
And they don't have to cover their eyes
Seems I'm trapped I can't break free
Without you who would I be
And I've rendered myself powerless
Is my need my cowardice?
She's got bruises but she wears them for love
He's got disease but he bares it for love
Don't know what cupid was thinking of
So many of us just slaves for love
Long long chain of fools, and I'm in there somewhere
Cause love ain't got no rules, but somehow I still care
For those who love themselves, even more than I love myself
And though you bring me pain and sorrow
I'll still be here tomorrow
Seems I'm trapped I cant break free
Without you who would I be
I've rendered myself powerless
Is my need my cowardice?
She's got bruises but she'll wear them for love
He's got a new disease but he'll bare it for love
Don't know what cupid was thinking of
So many of us just slaves for love
Fools for love

It's never crowded along the extra mile.
-Wayne Dyer

Why not go out on a limb? That's where the fruit is.
-Will Rogers

SILVER TONE

I'm not convinced that you really know me.

An answer for anything, at this point, is just fine.

I don't understand why anyone tries to trust

When everyone lies to us and no one takes the blame

Cause I'm so guilty sometimes I hate myself.

And I'm so worthless sometimes. I feel alone

So I turn to you

Tell me your story and I'll tell you mine, my friend.

I'm open for listing my thoughts if you've got the time.

Speak your mind; these things I relate to.

This or anything else that you could blame on me.

I'm not convinced that you really know me

An answer for anything, at this point, is just fine

I don't understand why anyone tries to trust

When everyone lies to us and no one takes the blame.

AMERICAN PIE

A long, long time ago... I can still remember how
That music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance,
That I could make those people dance,
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver,
With every paper I'd deliver,
Bad news on the doorstep...
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside,
The day the music died
Soo..Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die
Did you write the book of love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
Then you can teach me to dance real slow
Well I know that you're in love with him
'Cause I saw you dancing in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Then I dig those rhythm and blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew that I was out of luck
The day the music died
I started singin'...
Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die
Now for 10 years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rolling stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean, in a voice that came from you and me
And while the King was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned
While Lennon read the book of Marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died
We were singin'
Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die
Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with the fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the halftime air was sweet perfume
While sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
'Cause the players tried to take the field,
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed,
The day the music died
We started singing
Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die
Oh, and there we were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack Flash sat on a candle stick
'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
As I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in hell
Could break that Satan's spell and as flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
the day the music died
He was singing....
Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die
I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
And in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father Son and Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died
They were singin'
Bye, bye miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And good ol' boys were drinking whisky and rye?
Singing this will be the day that I die

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
  The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
  The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
  Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
  And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
  The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
  And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
  The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
  He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
  Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
  He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.
