STRIVE TO STAY ALIVE

I want to cry for my lost dreams. 
That house made of stone and glass 
with all wood inside the fame 
and fortune I never gained, 
the way my heart has been maimed 
my life tamed and bought at the corner store. 
Dreams estranged 
caught up in the buzz of busy bees
 living day to day in a maze 
on a pension fund 
Money I earned, not charity 
driving safe in the slow zone. 
No airs or golden chalices, 
standardized morphing of reality 
leave me to blaze on a hot day 
with no underwear. 
I fear for the living dead. 
Live in my head 
Less than half my dreams 
never come to fruition
because I’m not Annie Malone, 
neither is he 
change your tone 
don't use your phone 
while we're having this conversation 
I want to be a milliner
Tired of infighting, 
heart a siren, beats with desire 
Set the sky on fire, bring souls out of mire 
Stir the fires of love
Ignore the jive of each haze, 
the latest craze
Always some new malaise 
Live like lost
In a moon phase
Do my best to stay alive and thrive

Times Brutality & Fatality

Tonight I'm yours for a moment in time
Our entire lives until this moment 
in time a paradigm
Bones cold, 
struggle to survive wintertime,
Search for infinity 
Search for the high line
Winter ends, its spring again

Heart chimes sounds time
 Sounds of time can pass one by 
Airwaves, lives all on prime time
Make the most of tonight 
Tonight I’m yours for a moment
Tonight I’m yours for a second in time
Do what you want to me

You’re mine for a second in time tonight,
You can do what you do to me tonight
I’m yours for a second
I’m your onetime abyss
A lifetime of obsesses
Every which way confesses
I’m here to be your friend

Try to say I’m your enemy 
Because I don’t agree to see the way you do
Say I’m not your friend
I see all you do and say
Semper our reality, set an appointee
To serve your time instead of you

Our lives in filigree
You chase the dragon tree
Entered the lion’s den
Smoke your opium today
Like back in the day 

Convince everyone except me 
That your words are the Holy see,
You don’t fool me
I see right through you
I got the master key to your soul

Live our lives in a paradigm
Tonight I give myself freely
Tonight I’m yours for a moment in time
