Impossible Insanity

IF i were insane would i know
i feel good
what does that mean
i should know
if only God can judge me
why am i on house arrest
if a dog is your best friend
how am i crazy
you know what,  im sane
you know what im sayin??

Untitled

She gave me everything, i gave it back
she deserved an ovation, but i rarely clapped
love is sweet as cake, but eat it fast
choke on it even, this too shall pass
cupid is a marksman, youve heard the phrase
'you cant run from love' like you cant run from age...

Drunk Driver

My mom got killed, stupid drunk driver
now im an alcoholic and a stupid drunk driver
hypocrite or victim, i cant decide
im having mixed emotions, feels justified
so now i have a problem, at least thats what i hear
what about me, doesnt anybody care?
when will i stop drinking, will it be too late
when i get to heaven, will i be questioned at the gate...

If I Die

when i die, please cry for me
i wanna be loved, i long to be free
no funeral,  just sniffles and tears
say you cant live, mourn me for years
selfish maybe, who are you to judge
but maybe i wont die, maybe i wont budge..

Random Thoughts

If i were rich, would i be as giving as i am now
does it matter that i hate everybody im around
is life really worth living if youre not in control
do you really want to be dependent and old
ive been confused about who i want to be
but i know who i am and what i used to see
if i was poor would i blame God or bush
one door, one chance, would you pull or push.........

I Dont Get It

this is the land of the free and brave
not really, its the land of greed and graves
millionaires committing suicide
homeless people keeping hope alive
you wouldnt believe it if i showed you
you'd call me crazy if  i just told you
i want another choice
i demand another life
is it  cool to think that way
what did she mean by im not the sharpest knife???

What If

why cant i judge you, what if im right
maybe im perfect, what are you like?
okay, im not perfect but what if im close
i love my regrets, its the life i chose
who should we love, who can you trust
im only human, whats wrong with lust?
love-hate relations with rain and wind
i like going back to places ive never been..
