Can'T Delete This Cry Me a River

Cry Me a River
(To) wash away the blood and sweat
 I've sheaden for thee
Baby Cry me a river as long as the Niel
 Hope you throw me a raft
 so that I may rest for a while
 Kuz I've been bluer then any known sea
 And felt lower than the oceans is deep
Shead such blood life felt it owed me
And gotten so dark death thought he owned me

So cry me a river
To wash the dirt from my feet 
from starting these roads
Baby Cry me a river as long as the Niel
Hope you throw me a raft
So that I may rest for a while
So you say I've failed thee
 I didn't catch every tear
Say I didn't take risks
Say I lived life in Fear
But Truth fears not, when faced with dispair
So your young false words does fall on deaf ears.
You cry me a river 
And clear my mind off the past
That still haunt my nights
Baby Cry me a river as long as the Niel
Hope you throw me a raft
So that I may rest for a while
I do it for you
And I'll do it again
I'll do it forever
Says the parents to child.

Shall We Dance

shall we dance...

the old dance of romance
between two lost souls 
who have met by chance...

cool words, and quick wits
hide broken hearts, and loneliness...

fear the others intentions
test for damage prevention...

body language of meekness
eyes telling our secrets...

shall we dance
shall we dance
shall we dance

Blue Lipstick

I once met a girl wearing blue lipstick
Who had cold kisses 
and a heart tatted in dollar signs
With charming words and chimes 
She bedazzled my mind
Leaving me frozen in time

Reckless Love

~Kuz Ima little bit of reckless
And a bit of a pervert 
Sometimes I drink to much
And you end up hurt~

Yeah

But I hope you know I love you so
Love you with all my rockstar soul
Yeah
Hope you know I love you so
Love you with all this rebels soul
Given you all this rebels soul
Yea I know it ain't that much
Love you with all my rockstar soul
Pray to all that it's enough

yeah

~Kuz Ima little bit of reckless
And a bit of a pervert 
Sometimes I drink to much
And you end up hurt~

Too damn stuck in my ways
Disappearing for days
Such mean things I say 
Gotta have it my way

Yeah

But I hope you know I love you so
Love you with all my rockstar soul
Yeah
Hope you know I love you so
Love you with all this rebels soul
Given you all this rebels soul
Yea I know it ain't that much
Love you with all my rockstar soul
Pray to all that it's enough

 Yeah

~Kuz Ima little bit of reckless
And a bit of a pervert 
Sometimes I drink to much
And you end up hurt~

You'Re Pc Perfect

You hide, deny, words left implied_
between the lines where you reside_
avoid, misguide, all justified_
You say for love, say you are kind.

~False smiles, false praise...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

~Fake hugs and invites...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

persuade, convince, keep up pretence
stay on the fence, no preference
pretend we're friends to not offend
don't have the heart to end the trend

~False smiles, false praise...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

~Fake hugs and invites...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

Reckless Love Ii

Dancing with temptation
I can't seem to keep the pace and 
You keep making
Me change
The "stations"

Moving to your tunes
I just don't want to stop or lose,
But fear I'm falling
Off
your groove

So is this,
Reckless
Love
Kuz it seems I'm
bound to lose
Is this
reckless 
Love
That's Leaving
Me
confused?

Looking for the lines
I just need time to make them rhyme
But you keep making
Me change
My mind

Rolling with your flow
Still trying no to stop the show
Kuz if I fumbled
You'll make a
Fiasco

So is this,
Reckless
Love
Kuz it seems I'm
bound to lose
Is this
reckless
Love
That's leaving 
Me
Confused

Bastard of Babylon

Well here comes the Sun again
Guess the world desided not to end
The birds tell me it's time to see the light
But I can't seem to get 
Over the
Traumas of the night
I head out but my heart stays home
And all I want is to 
Be left alone
But the fire in my soul burns on
Telling me
Chase your throne
You Bastard of Babylon 
Ooh so you 
Better listen for the battle song
Kuz here come the 
Bastard of Babylon

Southern Stars

Don't you walk alone
Under southern stars

These old woods of mine
 hide many animals

Only those who fight
Are blessed to carry scars

As we block the urge
To turn to cannibals

When the lullaby don't ease the soul
And the fix don't seem to be working no more
Broken pieces of reflection on the floor
Now your outside in the cold
 with tattered clothes and busted knuckles

Consume for gain
Consume to claim
Consume in vain
Consumption seems to be the only game

Deformed is life
Reborn in Flames
Something don't change
The heart is tamed When only pain remains

What we became
Far from Infallible
All Somethings tangible
All somethings flammable

It Just Business

I wish you could walk a mile in my shoes
And see how it feels to be on the other side
Of those unforgiving eyes
Pride in that vail your looking through
Content with the stockholm syndrome 
Of your day to day rituals
All escue cause your missing screws 
Got you mentally running loose
Dont realise ultimate demise
Headless hens out the chicken coop 
So funk your feelings 
Man If im a villain
Then your a victim of the system
Make that pie your mission
Or except that little slice they're dishing
Dare you hate on my ambition
When You just lack a fraction of my visions
Just admit it
Its always been survival of the fittest
Dont forget it
Your either going to get got
Or your who doing the getting

Angel

I'll be the monster
Take point and aim 
I'll be the one you run out in the rain
Built me some thick skin
You can make cut
Whatch me as I she'd all of my blood
I'll be the bad guy
You can be good
The devil to your angel
If you would
I'll be the bad guy
You can be good
The devil to your angel
If you would

I'll be the dark Until
 you see the light
One day you'll know you need both 
to survive
I'm taking the dive
Give ultimate sacrifice
At least one of us will
Sleep good tonight
I'll be the bad guy
You can be good
The devil to your angel
If you would
I'll be the bad guy
You can be good
The devil to your angel
If you would
