for all that we struggle, for all we pretend..
wishing that something would happen
a change in this place,
'cos i'm tearing off the fancy wrapping
..findin' an empty package..
take for a while,
your trumpet from your lip
loosen your hold, loosen your grip
on your old ways
that have fallen out of step
in a changing time
hoist a new flag
hoist a new flag
angry sun burn down
judging us all
guilty of neglect and disrespect
and thinking small
and death by boredom
and death by greed
if we can't stop taking
more than we need ...
but across the fractured landscape
i find the same things
tired ideas
..birds without wings..
birds without wings
birds without wings
and these are just thoughts
on lack-luster times
i've no interest
in excuses you can find
like you've had a hard day
now you're too tired to care
now you're too tired to care
you've had a hard day
well across the fractured landscape
i see the same things
tired ideas broken values
many with the notion
that to share is to lose
a hollow people bound by a lack of imagination
and too much looking back without the courage
to give a new thing a chance
..grounded by this ignorance ..
(and the cat comes)
we're just,
birds without wings
birds without wings
birds without wings

im sorry that all of my recent entries have been lyrics..there is much to say, but ill save it for thr ears of those who care to hear. i hope it is something to read and just know, breathe, and taste..music is something id be so alone without and i am posting these things as more than words, more than even the music they represent. it is something going on beneath the skin and sometimes its all too much to take in.
id like it to be well received and taken as a token of my insides and a piece of me that i wish to share. it is rather frustrating to have someone tell you having feelings and emotions are wrong because they are not always positive. that is not the point of livejournal, this is a place for me to release. its not for anyone but myself. i post it accordingly, friends only, private, or public..no one has to read what i have to say..im not here to please anybody..this is for me. im sharing it because i feel it is worth sharing my thoughts, there is someone else who is probably feeling the same way..or can relate, or just want to read lyrics or words and feel something. when im leaving out specifics it is for a reason.
so i hope everyone is enjoying and/or has enjoyed their holiday and respective breaks and days off ..happy holidays and take care
