blaring from fiddles and steel guitars.
The bar is filled with a moderate crowd,
could be anywhere, but here they are,
drinking and two-stepping in this bar.
But the sight of them...

Conner woke up in his hotel
and looked to the small clock.
He’d slept through his early alarm,

for he had a job to do,
so he pulled on...

...The bear returned to his great feast,
and the trigger squeezed on back.
The gun barked, led striking deep,
the bear roared at the attack.

dashing for a creekside,
but the bullet had rent it’s...

There's a brand new angel in heaven today,
A little one with shining eyes and sweetest baby smile.
Tonight the folks who loved him come together to pray
And share their precious memories -- just for a while......

What if,  staring into the abyss...

Million watt love now shining from a night sky;
You lit this dim world so brightly so briefly.
The evil that took you now cowering in a concrete cell,
Its blank emotionless stare no longer fooling anyone.

That has grown and has changed for many years.

My body is shaking,
Hearing my own voice breaking,
Through my lungs,
Breathing hard,
My eyes see blur,
To the truth thats there.

But I should...

the first example of a brand new breed.

He would show the whole of the world
that finally, at...

My flying dreams have flown away.
Another place, another day,
when dreaming in my bed at night,
into the air I used to lift,
and with the stars or clouds I’d drift.
So young was I when all seemed bright!

The ravaging feat of the wicked we

Wrapped in the fantasy 
Written within it's covers
A story of Vampirates

A complex tale of lives entwined 
Destiny shaped before life 
Journeys embarked upon
While sailing the open seas

I know you don’t want to hear it
But one day you WILL 
look up and think, 
“Dammit Mom”
And then notice the rose-gold
Of a sunset

Just like I’m
Always taken by surprise 
At how your eyes
Can change from...

Once upon a time we were falling in love
Now you look down from up above
Once I was as free as a dove

Now I sit alone in this dark conner
Friends turned to strangers, loner 
My heart...

Could be so real
Could be so true
too good to be a lie 
until unfolded you never know

Cant always see it coming

Exposes itself in those least expected
to ourselves have we been true?
