The Kiss

THE RED RUBIE LIPS
HOW I WAITED FOR THIS DAY TO COME
LIPS OF A CUTTING EDGE OF A SWORD
EYES CLOSED, THE HEART FEARS 
THE MIND INTOXICATED, THE 
TICKLISH SENSATION.IF I COULD 
I WOULD BUT ONLY TO GO 
BACK FOR THAT
 FIRST KISS 
END

Illusion of Love

MY GENERATION KNOWS NOT WHAT
 LOVE IS,WHAT THEY CALL LOVE IS NOTHING BUT
 AN ILLUSION. MY GENERATION WILL USE THE
 WORD LOVE JUST TO GET THE DEAL DONE,BUT
 WHATS THE DEAL?WE TRULY
 LIVE A FAKE LIFE.
SHE SAYS SHE LOVES
 YOU,WITH TEARS 
IN HER EYES TRUE OR
 NOT SHE WILL 
GET THE DEAL,HOW 
CAN YOU SAY 
NO TO THOSE TEARS.HE SAYS
 HE'S SORRY  AND TO PROVE
 IT HE GOES DOWN ON HIS 
KNEES ,TRUE OR NOT HE WILL
 GET THE DEAL,HOW CAN YOU
 SAY NO TO SUCH A HUMBLE GESTURE.

Beauty

OLD MAN 
YOUR TIME IS UP,SITE AND PLAY THE HARP.
LET THAT ONE BE,I AND HER WERE MEANT TO BE,
I KNOW SHE WONT RESIST FOR I INSIST.
SHE KNOWS ME BY NAME FOR IT COMES WITH THE FAME.
OLD MAN LET THAT ONE BE.I AND HER WERE MEANT TO BE.

Worlds Apart

There said two worlds can't make a right, but who said it was easy
 ,who said it would be hard .now you want
 to go but am afraid it may be too
 late for me to let go, of what
 we had, when i see you my mind gets 
Crazy, i love how my mind gets so
 hazy. They told you, that no good 
Thing will ever come from a man
 born without a silver spoon, and they
 told me that you and i were
 never meant to be. Respect
 and honor i gave them but mine 
They said i must earn. And
 so they said two
 worlds cant
 make a right.
