Dusty Road

Sometimes I dream about old dusty roads
Driving through the dirt, with no where to go
I've passed many hitchhikers
Their showin skin and money
But none of that means anything to me
None of that means anything to me

I keep driving along that old dusty road
Searching for the reason, why I even left home
I keep driving through the dirt and the mud
Thinking of all the things that I have done

I shift into neutrul as I cruise down a hill
My mind slips for a bit
And a deer ran out from a feild
I slammed on the brakes
And dust flew up high
That's when I knew that everything was alright

I keep driving along that old dusty road
Searching for the reason, why I even left home
I keep driving through the dirt and the mud
Thinking of all the things that I should have done

My car has ran out of gas 
And this lonely road becomes clear
What would have been different if I stopped
To talk to the hitch hikers and the deer
Maybe if I picked them up, theyd help me push my car
Or maybe they would robbed me dry
And killed me with a crobar
Or maybe I'd just drive by and pretend they werent there
Cause they were never there
No they were never there

I'm pushing my car down an old dusty road
Wondering why I still haven't gone home
My shoes are covered in dirt and mud
Giving proof of something that I have done

I'M Sleeping Outside

I've tried to tamper with such precious time
Looked forward and back with open eyes
I wonder about the day I'll die
Will there be rain or shine?
Maybe both, maybe none
As I speak another life has begun
Wish them luck as they carry on
Bewildered within these starry nights
I thought of time when I have lied
Oh such precious time
It flies
(im sleeping outside)
Signs and dreams lead me to believe
That somehow, some way
I'll be something great
Do I choose to be nieve?
They'll never know
Do I choose to be so weak?
It'll never show
(I'll be sleeping outside)
Love is such a clishey it seems
Something I could only see
Her eyes drew us in like summer heat 
Cupids arrows were made of clay
Oh yes I've longed for this day
I knew I wasnt lying anymore
(I always sleep outside
where the weather is nice
I can feel everything for what it's worth
dont give me signs or written lines
give me your solid words)

A Beautiful Picture, Sweet Temptation

Good lord how I stare into those eyes
I could spend hours, even days just getting lost within the fire
So gentle and so mysterious 
Who am I? 
I am standing here looking at this beautiful picture
A picture so rare that I want it all to myself
Not a single soul may touch it
Should I become a theif?
Or is there a sly way of sneaking its beauty into my hands?
Sweet temptation brewing inside my blood
I can feel it when it gets close by
It's so euphoric 
I want to get lost in this feeling forever
Secrets so personal, deeply hidden inside my heart
It burns with rage
Burning like a wild fire into the holes of my lungs
If only I could stop breathing for just a moment
Would it all come true?
Such sweet temptation
So utterly sweet
Devouring the very center of my veins!
Im so in love
With such a beautiful picture

Burnt Tongue

I'm so happy that you can yell at everyone
I'm so happy that you can express youself
I'm so happy that this world isn't what you expected
I'm just so parched  that your so high up on your horse

And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand
Why you care about two people fallin in love
Why you care if I drink or if I do drugs

I just wanna scream into your eyes
Make you realize that what you say isn't always right
Now right and wrong, it's all opinion
Black and white, yes I think they deserve, to be colors too
So how about me and you, is there any truth
You cant change the world with one voice if the tongue is burned

I'm so happy that you can climb a mountain high
I'm so happy that you think its my job to be the wife
Yeah I'm so happy that your such a hypocrit
I'm so grateful for you to tell me lies

And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand
Why its your job to fix us all
And preach your words to a raging band
Someday you will see 
That there is more than just degree
In this world that we praise peace
Peace is lost in the sea

Open My Eyes

A random day at a random time
it seemed to be all planned,
a time of losing hope,
a time of starting over,
I stood strong although I was weak.
A random moment at a random pace
it seemed to grasp me by the neck,
a person with hope,
a person starting over,
he stood strong although he was weak.
As the days came swiftly,
I learned more and more quickly
of this person I thought to be so tall.
This person was dark,
this person was fake,
this person was self loathing,
this person was a waste.
I have no time for this foolishness,
your magik is rubbish.
I have no patience for this nonscence,
your shadow will swollow you alive.
I fear nothing of your kind!
Such a dissapointment to me.....
a memory of you remains.....
a memory of someone..... 
a memory of a man who thought he was insane.
Go cry a stream of tears,
go tell the world that you were used.
I shake my head,
I close my eyes,
and now i leave you be.
I hope one day I'll open my eyes,
to see you've gotten free.
