Hard Headed, Soft Hearted
We were hard headed, soft hearted
So young young and wild when we got started
What is, is meant to be
We were searching for our destiny
Drank to much——We were living to loud
Pissing off the girls who acted to proud
Making up songs to get-um to dance
Pledging our love to get in their pants
(We were) Young and restless, wild and free
Laughing to hide our insecurities
(We were) outlaws, pirates at sea
Lonely dreamers, you and me
You and me
We swore we’d alway ride together
We wore our souls, tough as leather
Where the road ends, who the hell knows
Chasing that horizon, me and my bro
Flying our colors, Riding the wind,
Got your back my brother, till the bitter end
Open that throttle, turn the radio up
Hide the liquor and women, cause we don’t give a ****
(We once were) Young and restless, wild and free
Laughing to hide insecurities
(We were) outlaws, pirates at sea
Lonely dreamers, you and me
You Can’t Kill A Man, When He’s Already Dead
Penueta’s a village in a Mexican Valley
Across the river from the Fedrales
Where the rain does not fall and that land it is dry
And the crops do not grow and the farmers they cry
The Gringos they come with their money and cars
and bargain with peasants while they smoke their cigars
Acedro says someday I’ll swim that big river
And send back the money to my mother and sisters
His father he died when he was still small
The smell of Tequila is all he recalls
When he asked his mother all she said
Is you can’t kill a man when he’s already dead
AAAAAA HHHHH EEEEEEEE
Well, all he took was the shirt on his back
The river was swift and the night it was black
The search lights they turned the land to a stage
Where the actors are strong and the performance is brave
Acedro was caught and put behind bars
The nights they pass slow when you can’t see the stars
Something it broke, deep down inside
The shame he felt he could not hide
When the news found his mother all she said
Is you can’t kill a man when he’s already dead
AAAAAA HHHHH EEEEE
Where No Ones Been
Where No Ones Been
When nothing seems to matter
And no one seems to care
Love leaves no trace
Autumn unfolds, naked and bare
What was it you said
As you turned and looked away
Come with me
Before we fall, and time fades away
Empty rooms
Empty space
No matter where I go
I always feel out of place
I know your scent
I know your skin
I know your touch
In those secret places where no one’s ever been
I swear I can hear your heart
I can taste your breath
If you’d only let me
I’d find you again between this life and death
Wherever you’d go
I’d follow you down
Through darkest of streets
Of the loneliest of deserted towns
Are you broken like me
Black and blue, painted sad
Letting go of all those little things
We could of had
I know your scent
I know your skin
I know your touch
In secret places where no one’s ever been
Something
She was crying, crying so very hard, and it almost sounded the same as hysterical laughter——It was a sound steeped in deep emotions. Emotions are strange and uncontrollable but never wasted. She had the fading foundation of a woman who in her younger years was pretty, No, not pretty—-She had once been beautiful. She’s my Sad Autumn girl.
Getting older is rough, even more so for a woman. Losing ones attractiveness is a cruel trick of time. There’s no punch line, just laughter and tears——and we all live somewhere between the two?
Kindness is more attractive than beauty
right there and then
I wanted to change my life
We all want to
We are all
Afraid to live
Afraid to die
some days leave us feeling like forever
Somedays will never be forgotten
somedays show us what we’re made of
It would take all my strength
To beat back the darkness
When did it get to be so hard
Maybe nothing and no one changes
Or, maybe it’s only me who changes
I don’t really know anyone
Anymore
And no one knows me
I prefer it this way
I wanna figure it out
On my won
I miss everyone
Everything hurts
Nothings easy anymore
How do I carry on
I just want something
Something to hold on too
But something is so hard to find
I’m lost in the wonder of it all
and it makes me cry and laugh
living somewhere between the two
Twilight
Forever forgotten
an empty chair
at silent dinner table
China ware frail
Showing tiny fractures
Pious Stained window
from the back pew
of a prayer worn church
contrition on aching knee’s
Quiet sobbing in the dark
midnight cars meander
rolling by in the distance
aimless forlorn headlights
The lonely bark of a dog at 3:05 am
The measured ticking of a incessant clock
Flickering starlight
from Dying stars
forgive-less moon
chasing Blind skies
Waiting on a tardy sun
birth of twilight
Shadows cast from dim windows
across dark silent bedroom walls
Rain drops against window panes
endless November nights
They say the world spins
But I don’t know
What to believe
We are given no reasons
Holy books and funny papers
Knowing, that there is, no-knowing
What’s reality, what’s illusion
What’s it matter
we all must walk through the fire
And we do our best
To carry on
