Take Back Your Heart
Too many years
 too many hard times
 too many mistakes to forgive
 too many memories resurface
when you look for a new love
you're welcome
 to take back your heart....

Take Back Your Children
Daley Thompson's Decathlon
A game that made your fingers throb
And Pacman was an intriguing game
A mission of sticking things in his gob
Who could ever forget Space Invaders
A quest to blitz the monster's before you were reached
And Donkey Kong was a journey towards the animals breach

The last...

Premium Member Take Back the Land
Where is the nation once united under God?
Broken is the moral compass that guides her.
The people sleep while the devil is at play
like a fattened calf, we are ripe for the slaughter.

The sky has darkened across the heartland of America
the clouds weep tears of anguish,...

You Can'T Take Back
You can’t take back the tears I’ve shed,
you can’t take back the words you said!

You can’t take back the loneliness in my heart,
you can’t take back the feelings to depart!

You can’t take back the endless lies of deceit,
you can’t take back the miles of defeat!

You...

I Can'T Take Back My Eye's
I can't take back my eye's
From you the most elegant girl.
I observe the billowing,
The wavy immature,
The adolescence of Thy creature.
You become disgusted,
It's natural and beautiful.
I can't take back my eye's.
You the princess of flower,
Roaming hornets moves restlessly.
They try to sing an effective song
In a choked...

Occupy Wall Street- Take Back the Cornfields of America
They look down from their penthouse and turn up their nose.

They see us all as a murder of crows. Bunch of pests and foul nuisances trying to eat of their crops.

Not sons and daughters and mommas and pops.

They don't want to hear of our lower...

Give Me a Forest and Take Back Your Lawn
Wild wild wild, keeps chanting my mind
That is where I belong
To be up on the world stage and perform
To jump in the air and land on the grass
Elated by the life’s concert
It’s a constant bass

Give me a forest
And take back your lawn
Lying on the mulch
The...

Premium Member If Only My Words I Could Take Back
The words passed through my lips,
Before my head had time to think.
The inflicted pain was not the intent;
If only my words I could take back.

Before my head had time to think
My emotions got the better of me.
If only my words I could take back;
Suffering in...

Hola, Spain, Would You Take Back Florida
Hola, Spain, Would You Take Florida Back?

By Elton Camp

From the time of its first sight
Florida was sure no delight
Sand and bugs and way too hot
Is just about all that place’s got

Ponce de Leon learned the truth
That it has no fountain of youth
“Florida is ours,” Spain...

I Can Not Take Back What Was Said
I can not take back what was said
and would not if I could.
Without fake love I could instead
feel something that I should.

Dark entities will often pose
as someone that can care.
They promise love and offer those
something which is not there.

I ponder why you still pretend
to think...

Take Back This Flower You Once Gave
Take back this flower you once gave.
I beg you, please accept it back.

Your gift meant the greatest value,
Your flower priced above my life.
To others, it might mean nothing
But to me, it was everything.
I never expected such gift:
Such present to such low fellow.

Nights were sleepless to...

Take Back Time
This never should have happened
It’s really all my fault
Take back time
And put that glass on my wrist

They took you away from me
Just a little too soon
Take back time 
And put that knife through my heart

You lay there motionless
A never ending dream
Take back time
And lay me...

Take Back the Nights
Take back the nights that you stoled from me. You forced me to do things that I 
never wanted to do. They haunt me all the time. The terror I endure when I walk 
outside, I worry that you will find me and be waiting...

Take Back Nothing
“Take it back!”
I shouted in protest, in earnest
to defend my honesty, personal integrity
Truth be told I don't know why
what she spoke was true
I'm a fool, I'm no good
at least that's what I believe
but this world is much more grand than me
so I do all I...

The Wish You Can'T Take Back
Wishes you make are not as they seem
As if a genie has granted them
And twisted them not to be
Put in a little to much of this
And not enough of that
Before you know it your wishing back your wish
But you wished back to far
 Because each...
