Lyrics = Best kinds of Poetry

    • On my own...
    • Am i part of the cure or am i part of the disease?
    • Tell me why, why you've got your secret locked inside?
    • Confusion never stops
    • We live in a beautiful world, yeah we do, yeah we do.
    • Stars in your multitude, scarce to be counted, filling the darkness with order and light
    • When you live on a city on a hill, You've got to shine your light
    • Another day, another destiny, this never ending road to calvary
    • You broke the thorns and unleashed the chains, carried the cross of my shame, of my shame, You know i believe it.
    • But I still haven't found what i'm looking for
    • It's alright, cuz there's beauty in the breakdown
    • Life is short but sweet for certain
    • For goodness sake I think i'm on the edge of something new with you, you make me sick
    • Killing me softly with his song
    • And i know its only in my mind...

Everything seems worse in my head...

This is something I just wrote real quickly a few months ago. Interestingly it still rings true now.

Frustration
Paralyzed
Stuck
Unlearning
Stepping backwards
Never far enough away
One thing at a time...
I tell myself
Can i do this?
was i cut out for academia?
I want tears
I want scars
tell my story
so afraid of failing
I set out on that path anyway
I am my biggest judge, critic, determiner
If i could move, I'd be a bird
fly away, to see the smallness of it all
I'd fly to a safe haven and stay until the storm was over
i'm falling fast
Where do i belong?
can i have answers instead of questions?

"Rapunzel" lyrics by DMB

can't stop playin this one!!
" Ha, open wide, All so good I'll eat you, Take me for a ride, In your sweet delicious,
Perfect little mouth, There upon I linger, You will have no doubt, I'll do my best for you I'll do
Love...
Lets stop to get it going, Lost myself just thinking, bout the two of us, From each other drinking
Begin with the lips, Fingertips and kissing, Turn me inside out, I do my best for you
Up and down we go, from the top you push me, This is such a thrill, Lost in love and dancing
Shake your tambourine, You blow my head open, Of one thing for sure I do my best for you I'll do.
For you I would crawl, through the darkest dungeon climb the castle wall If you're my Rapunzel
You let down your hair right through the window. Good they locked the door cuz I'll do my best
for you I'll do. I think the world of you, to you i'll be true, From you my strength is full,
to carry your burdens too, too good to be real.
Smell of something cooking, You my soul to steal, Food of love were filling. What you've given me
For it is there is no measure.
Of one thing i am sure, I'll give my best for you
Hip lock up so tight, you know drive me crazy, crazy is alright with you lookin at me
You make me feel high, every single thing you do to me is like i'm drunk, given me given me The shiver "

lyrics speak to me




Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get insecure

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart if full and my doors always open
You can come anytime you want

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls


Happy Birthday Michael Frederick.
