Work, Leave, Stay

They think they have you trapped 
working working working

You can do it all of that
working working working

We know you are great at what you do
working working working

But this is what I have to say to you
working working working

I need to get away from this place
leaving leaving leaving 

I really need a break from the time that was a waste
leaving leaving leaving 

If some help could be given that's all I would demand
staying staying staying

Yes, only a little help just wait for my command 
Staying Staying Staying

When I Was Young, Now I Am Older

When I was young I never understood
Now I am older I wish I never could 

When I was young I had time to play
Now I am older I have no time to be free

When I was young I would drink milk 
Now I am older I could drink beer

When I was young times were good
Now I am older times are rough 

When I was young love was rare to see
Now I am older love is all around me

When I was young there was fun and laughter 
Now I am older the fun and laughter continues  




I would like to add more and might do so. Comment on some of your Young and growing older times. This is for fun

My Last Nerve

O why O why do you make me mad
take away my help that's all I had
you are not going make me sad
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve 


There is only so much that I can do
I am only one person and that is true
this is who I am and I'm not you
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve 

While I don't mind doing what needs to be done
just give me a break to relax and have fun
I'm going to take my time and not being to run
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve 

You were given many chances to correct your mistake
this is my own choice that I did have to make
all that I needed was a little bit of a break
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve 

What you are doing to me you know is insane 
so if I decide to leave I don’t want to hear you complain
I never was given any help and that's why 
it is time for me to say goodbye
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve 
That was my last nerve, That was my last nerve

A Winter Snow

a wish for snow is what I hope
try ice fishing or sledding down a slope

but even though it dose get chilly
most people want spring, and that seems silly 

this is a wonderful season, maybe it's just me
there are few other people who also love to see

snow falling softly from the sky
and watching beautiful sunsets, while birds fly by

A Night With You

Tonight Tonight a cold dark night
With the moon shining ever so bright
As I stand and stare at the grand glistening stars
I know tonight will be by far
The best night because this is true
I have one thing and that is you.

Facebook To Me

Going on facebook is what people do
like this, comment on that, ask How are you?
say where your going, where you have been
play Words With Friends, hope I will win

Add random people, some maybe your friends
poke them and poke them, that's the new trend
report/block the things you don't want to see
unfriend some people, but still have one thousand and three  

Update your status and post random shit
people been doing this on facebook to much, that is it 
O look, there's another person complaining 
this is what I see on facebook, don't get mad at me  
I am just saying

A Beautiful Day

It was a bright and cheerful sunny day
The wind was soft and light
A great day to be out fishing 
Or even out flying a kite

My eyes were staring far into the sky
Watching the clouds and birds go drifting by
Relaxing on my back, next to the river
The thought of a big fish, give me the shivers

But, even though there were no clouds around
It starts to rain, it was such a peaceful sound  
As quick the rain came, it had just disappeared
Now my only thought was there is no fish 
But this was not something to be feared 

The only thing to do now is watch the river and flies
Keep a good look out and hope a rainbow will begin to rise

Moon Argues the Sun

Wake up 3 in the morning
walk over to the window 
Look at the moon, wonder what it is thinking
thinking its the best?
shining so bright only one out there in the sky
thinks to it self
I am better than the sun?
at least people can look at me without there eyes burning
and when they see me all alone in the sky that's when they being to write poetry
write songs, books, and speak great thing about me? 
all about my beauty and loneliness
I brighten the dark cold nights?
the sun, what do you do? 
You make people sweat and bring heat to this world
your beauty comes only when you rise and fall
The moons beauty stays with it from when it rises and when go to sleep 
Have you ever watch the moon set?

The Lost Bird

Like a bird trying to find a home in the woods 
but they are getting destroyed 
by the machines 

Like a river wanting to flow into the ocean
only to be blocked 
by the walls

Like the feeling of wanting to do what is right
and getting stopped
by the mind

I just want to be free, I just want to be free, I just want to be free

Fly away and see the whats around

Lost I may be, but I don't want to be found

Silent like the flap of a wing I wont make a sound

Let me be free, Let me be free, Let me be free 

I can find want I need to survive on my own
but could use any help
from time to time

My eyes can see from very far away
but could use a guide
every here to there

I am a lost bird on my own big journey
and this is one thing 
I will never forget, That

I am free, I am free, I am free

Twins 21

For twenty one years we have been twins 
Through struggling times, losses and wins
Our birthday is soon and were turning twenty one
It is time for us to relax and have fun
Take a little break and enjoy the day
Drinking and relaxing so hear what I have to say
Be free from the stress of work and college
Drive our new car around and bring up the mileage 
Hang with family and eat lots of food   
Lets see some friends if were in the mood
But remember this if we don't want to see them
Carpe Diem, Carpe Diem
