They say you’re got to lose a couple fights to win It’s hard to tell from where I’m sitting They say that this is where the fun begins I guess it’s time that I was quitting A slight figure of speech I cut my chest wide open They come and watch us bleed Is it art like I [...]

Tin Man
February 2, 2012 – 11:28 am
You can’t be like me But be happy that you can’t I see pain but I don’t feel it I am like the old tin man I’m as worn as a stone I keep it steady as I can I see pain but I don’t feel it I am like the old tin man I miss it I miss it Oh, [...]
Ill With Want
February 2, 2012 – 11:26 am
I am sick with wanting and it’s evil and it’s daunting How I let everything I cherish lay to waste I am lost in greed, this time it’s definitely me I point fingers but there’s no one there to blame A need for something, now let me break it down again A need for something but not more medicine I am [...]

Dont push me out Just a little longer Stall your mother disregard your father’s words Close the Laundry door Tiptoe across the floor Keep your clothes on I’ve got all that I can take Teach me how to use the love that people say you make Stop your parents car I just saw a shooting star [...]
Kick Drum Heart
February 2, 2012 – 11:25 am
The footprints over the snow the fabric of all the lonely Covering only the fables and hands the rest is out in the cold holding the last of the season F-F-F freezzin’ My my my hearts like a kick drum My hearts like a kick drum My hearts like a kick drum My loves like a foot. We’re walkin’ in to the fields. [...]
Ten Thousand Words
February 2, 2012 – 11:24 am
Ten thousand words swarm round my head, Ten million more in books written beneath my bed. I wrote or read them all when searching in the swarm still can’t find out how to hold my hands. And I know ya need me in the next room over, but I am stuck in here all paralyzed. For months I got myself in ruts, too much time spent in mirrors [...]
The Perfect Space
February 2, 2012 – 11:20 am
I wanna have friends that I can trust, that love me for the man I’ve become not the man I was. I wanna have friends that will let me be all alone when being alone is all that I need. I wanna fit in to the perfect space, feel natural and safe in a volatile place. And I wanna grow old without the pain, give my body back to the earth and not [...]
And It Spread
February 2, 2012 – 11:19 am
There was light in the room Then you eft and it was through Then the frost started in My toes and fingertips And it spread And it spread Into my heart And it spread And it spread Into my heart Then for I don’t know how long I settled in to do it wrong And as the wind fills the sail [...]
Head Full of Doubt, Road Full of Promise
February 2, 2012 – 11:18 am
There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light In the fine print, they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right And it comes in black, and it comes in white And I’m frightened by those who don’t see it Where nothing is owed, deserved or expected And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected Decide what to be, and go be it There was a dream that one day I could see it [...]
January Wedding
February 2, 2012 – 11:17 am
She keeps it simple And I am thankful for her kind of lovin’ ‘Cause it’s simple No longer do we wonder if we’re together We’re way past that And I’ve already asked her So in January we’re gettin’ married She’s talkin’ to me with her voice Down so low I barely hear her But I know what she’s sayin’ I understand [...]
