Metaphors Be with You
--------------------------------------

Metaphors Be with You
Metaphors be with you

I was trapped in a metaphor
Everything I looked at had meaning
Everything was a warning and a sign

Metaphors be with you
Metaphors be with you

In just a blink
That’s how fast
I got out of there

Metaphors were all
Trapped & all that
That I lived for

Thanks to
Carrie Fisher
Metaphors be with you

Regret
-----------

v1.
I just sit & wonder
On the other side
Memories seem fonder

From this cage
I need to escape
Nothing more
Than saving face

In my life I’ve seen
A number of sunsets
And I like the
Age Old Mariner
I live with many regrets

c1.
I regret I ever knew you
I regret I ever did
I regret the time we spent
A time I could have lived

I regret I ever knew you
I regret the way I behaved
I want to take back everything
To you that I gave

v2.
I just sit & wonder
What I missed out
Still have my doubts
Start and see life as a new
See more than missing
I’ll be wanting you

Something Special
------------------------------

We are something special
No time to waste
Always in line

We are something special
We got that lost appeal
All worthy minds do well

My cynical mind's revealed
My cynical mind's revealed

C'mon Buddy
—---------------

C'mon Buddy
Follow me I’ll
Do my best to help
Buddy, can barely
Help myself

I’ll do my best
To help you, Buddy
So C'mon Buddy
Don’t fall behind

There’s so many people
That want to help us
It's just that they’re
Really hard to find

Half Way
—---------

c.1
Tell them it's right
To take it to
The dream

Gets trickier
The closer
You get it seems

Have to see it
Out until
It’s lost

A battle
‘Til the end
At all costs

v.1
Can’t do it
Half Way
You gotta
Take it until
It’s nearly
All the way
There

Can’t do it
Half Way
Take the reins
Not only is it all on
It’s all about
You

Nobody Watching Me
—--------------------------

I prefer when no one
Is watching me
That way I can escape
From this scrutiny

And leave it
All day for the
Little things

And makes me
Different from
The bitter things

I’d rather deal with
Folks with my
Open mind & dreams

Who deal all
Day with the
Other things

And see how
Real for
Average Joe

With true forthright
& Spiritual
I prefer when no one
Is watching me

Keeping An Eye On Them
-----------------------------------------

Keeping An Eye On Them
Pleasing with a wide open grin
When we lost track of each other
As people always do

Keeping An Eye On Them
Pleasing with a wide open grin
When we lost track of one another
As people usually do

So we're keeping
Keeping
Keeping An Eye On Them
Pleasing with a wide open grin

When we lost track of each other
As people always do

It's All My Fault
------------------------

All will prevail
All challenges
Overcome

No one’s seen
The reasons you
Are who you are

Stay Away
-----------------

If not now
Then never
You’ve gone
Away

Gone forever
You never stay
Stay away

If not now
Then never
You’ll run
Away

You’ve
Gone away
You’ll never
Stay

Run Away
From the
Meaningless
Run run
Away

It’s always something else
You’ll always wonder why
Wonder why
