The Oath

As I sit on the stand and raise my right
hand and swear to tell the whole truth.

I look at the man that raised his right hand
and made me suffer through all the abuse.

As I tell everyone what he has done,
his face turns red and I wish he were dead
but wishes don't always come true.

So as I step down from the stand to become a new man,
the darkness breaks free as the light finds me.

For the first time in year's I have other
tear's, tear's of happiness.

Now I'm free from all the wasted tears and all the
wasted fears, Because new years is a smile away.

Sweet Mary Jane

Just want a little break from you
Getting too tired to know what's true
Can't decide what I should do
About you girl.
Time and again I taste my tears
Don't know where I'll lose my fears
Friends say it'll take some time
How the hell did I get like this
So tired off clinching my fists
Tell me baby
Where did I go wrong
While I sing you this song

This one for the ache in my head
another thing to help me bed
Seems i cant forget about you girl
It sinks so deep to my soul
Bottled up so hard to control
Its the only thing to take away my pain
Sweet Mary Jane

Day one im wanting you more
Getting closer down to the floor
It seems my sorrows can't keep away from me
Don't know how much I can do
Cause all this pain your putting me through
I don't really know which side to blame
Cause everything's all the same

This one for the ache in my head
another thing to help me bed
Seems i cant forget about you girl
It sinks so deep to my soul
Bottled up so hard to control
Its the only thing to take away my pain
Sweet Mary Jane

Moon light shimmers in a daze
Feeling comfortable in this haze
Seems all my sorrow escaped away from me
Picking my-self off the floor
Looking better than i did before
And lord knows she blame

Aint got that ache in my head
Found the thing to help me to bed
She treats me so much better than you girl
She loves me so deep to my soul
So intense so hard to control
She's the only thing to take away my pain
Sweet Mary Jane

The Truth

The dead filter through with lifeless dreams of flesh flowing in a sea of blood and

sorrows that call out to the sins of those polluting the earth with hatred dimming our

prospective on life's greatest treasures and causing a wave of untamed shifts destroying 

all that is good and blinding us with lies of a better tomorrow.

Eyes Wide Open

I walked on past you
Never stopped to see
Those painful eyes
Looking up at me

Never saw the bodies
Huddled in the rain
Never saw my brothers
Crying in pain

I'm Held deep in silence,
Day after day 
The sun shines bright
until the clouds fade to grey

Tear drops they fall, 
Fall down like rain
Flooding these streets
Full of shame
full of shame

Now my eyes are wide open
I see what I see
All the pain that's caused 
Is Caused by you and me...

Fractured Economy

Drifting in my thoughts I circle the understand of the faded light in our souls.
We bring upon shame and indifference to the youth of today 
Building and harsh and prejudicial future.
One must question our actions as we all slip further deep within the cracks of hatred and
conviction 
Signing away all that we have worked so hard to create.
Fueled by greed and envy a stream of unstable mind's cause a fracture within the economy
And through wars and blood shed we stain our very existence.

Nothing But a Frown

All you think is of the past destroy my confidence and beat me down turn my smile in to a frown,
You turn your back with a smile of lust to see me in pain is one big must.  
Your turning on me the way GOD has for years now your one of the ones wasting my tear.
I never thought of you as an enemy till now so how does it feel do you enjoy the fear you've
caused do you like to see pain in these eyes or is it more of a thrill you get when you
see my eyes filled with tears and my heart shattered to bits you once were the one i'd
confide in and say I love you but i guess not today for you've shown me the true feelings
you hold in your stare I do see there's hatred you have beneath there you try to fight it
but it makes it self known so now I know the true you deep down to the bone.

You and Me

All day, all day long
I've been trying
To be strong
Can't you see
You and me
Are meant to be,
Meant to be.

All night, all night long
I've been crying
All alone ,all alone
Can't you see
You and me
Are meant to be,
Meant to be.

All life, all life long
I've been searching,
For far to long 
Can't you see
You and me 
Are meant to be 
Meant to be...

Point of Conviction

I lie in bed awake as the darkness over takes
a prisoner it seems stuck in a bad dream
it's not just some mistake it's my resting
place, a break from something real to all this
pain I feel.
Words are not enough to tell you how I feel.
the way the pain beats and i can not break free. 
I find I'm not that strong, strong
enough to be alone.
I can't seem to find my way to get through
this.
Dwelling in my shame, I'm the only one to
blame,this truth I dare not hide because it's
burning me alive.
This pain deep within me has caused me to
see.
This hate I have inside has only left me BLIND!
