City Of Angels

As this world crumbles beneath us, fallen bricks shatter these wings like twigs and glass.
And I’ll grab her hand and say to her, “I’ll take you with me, just grab this withered faith.”
As buildings fall to match our fates, we’ll run until dust fills our eyes with pain and deceit.
Then which, we’ll wipe them clean, and say goodbye to another failed escape.

This dedication, that will save you from this life, will fall away as I speak the words…
“You’ve lost that certain something in your eyes.”…and you let go of my hands and fall from the heavens.

I’ll catch you one more time, we’ll dodge this burning bridge, this burning flag that stands for disbelief.
I whisper in her ears that I cannot fly much more, to hang on with every ounce of love…
She owes that love to me, for I have rescued her from a blackened depth of lies.
I race through the flames, away from destruction, while her care lay upon my back.

This dedication, that will save you from this life, will fall away as I speak the words…
“You’ve lost that certain something in your eyes.”…and you let go of my hands and fall from the heavens.

This time I can’t go back. You’ve given up too soon. I cannot let you grab this shattered wing.
This time you fade. I will find a way to clear the black. I will find my way to you.

Be careful darling, the smoke will kill before the flames ever touch your pretty face.
And watch the sky for me too…because I promise. Nothing will ever be as inviting as my arms in a deathly ruin.

The Last Raid

Alright boys, lets suit up. Put on your lie-proof vest, cuz this place makes Sin City look like Heaven. Don't be afraid to dirty your hands, theirs are already soaked with the blood of a thousand let-downs.

Lift the scope to your eye, watch as they walk down this path hand in hand. Aim as she throws him aside, his face cut by vines...Now FIRE at her heart...there's fire in her heart.

That's one down and a countless number of dissapointments to shoot, dissapointments to kill. Take one down, pass it around, what a never ending bottle of beer we have found.

Don't be afraid to dirty your boots...The ground is for walking, the defeated have hardened like tar.Are you afraid to take the shot? Are you afraid to take a drink? You should be. You should be dead.

Open Blue

The false light on this water reflects the moon of a much too distant place. What freedoms we had! To walk barefoot on land with no traps. We find this calm that no evil can break. And count and sort scars at individual pace.

So take me there. What’s paid to its own can come from no wallet or book. Ask the sky who’s in charge. I bid on the golden man and his army of far away kings.

Take what’s mine, keep what’s yours…I’ll lay on this grain and look to the stars.

Place your letter in the box, son. The only judgement received is from the birds and the weeds. Your freedom is eternal here, my friend, so bring on the poison! Let them eat cake!

Let them eat what they will, on the Queen’s account! Because there are no queens here, only the real thing. But they won’t break the calm…not here, we fight. We fight for the breathing of the open blue.

We.Fight.For.You.

Just some stuff I've been writing....possible new songs.

Peace and Love
