Did I Mention?

Did I mention
That I like it
When you call me
Did I mention
That it feels good
When you just
show up at night
Its my favorite
Whenever you are drinking
and your eyes
just can't stay off of me
Well I'm here for the time
Not around for long
and if you're lucky
you'll be feeling it after this song
Thoughts and prayers
on the wind, carry on
I take my time serious
So don't be offended
Its my right
Bottom line
Did I mention
You're the sweetest
When you hold me
In your arms
Wrapped around tight
I can not move
I wouldn't fight
If your so clever
What were you thinking
When your lips first said
hello to me

I don't find
any of this
Funny anymore
It takes a lot of vital space
and it feels more like a chore
are we even friends at all
or am I a prisoner of war
I'm turning off my camera
No more sneaking through
Your backdoor
I'm too loud to be your secret
I'm too noisy for you to hide away
I'm too tired to play this game again
I wont no more
And I wont say a thing
about what happened
you know, after all
I was part of it too
I'll focus on the many times
When it felt like our friendship was true
No harsh feelings, please
Leave me alone
Find someone else to
Entertain you
Keep all the pictures to remember me by
But
Don't let her catch you
Did you think that I could
Keep this going on and on
Why can't you see
all the trouble your creating with
your lack of upright cause
I can't believe I let myself get
Dragged on for so long
Stay away from me
I don't deserve to be
Trapped here on your phone
No No NO

Good Enough

In a daydream
Reaching out to
what is wrong
But there's no changing
Outcomes we've known all along
Sticking to the program
Though the eyes shift left to right
It's a wonder no clear suspicion
Keeps you up at night
Up at night
You're good enough to not be told
You're not fooling anyone
Play your game this just gets old
Nothing to stop me now
Step over lines that you've been sold
Turn this whole ship right around
It's all up to your control
Will you give it away
Or will you hang on tighter
Why stay?
You've got no ties that bind her
Make way
For no return to amateur
It's already done
It's a waste to be in process
longer than it should deserve
Still I need to know if all of this
Could have hit a nerve
Well we're under microscope
Investigating shapes
Clearly we should look at this
with a greater scape
A greater scape

When you are feeling
Like you can't climb out
Of human condition
You've been dragged around
You wanna try it
Don't you deny it
You are, feeling low
On your ambition
Ands its starting to show
So baby, cry it out
Do whatever you need
To try and keep yourself
Up Above
That water's rising hey babe
Here is your life raft
But it's up to you, to actually pick it up
Pick it up before I walk a way
So tell me again
how you've been through it
you have seen some things
on your adventures
and they're heavy I know
and if you could try it
would you deny it
maybe you could
leave behind all of your mishaps
Its a much lighter load

Brighter Days

Goodbye to tomorrow
It looks like we wont get us
Another day
Cuz we threw it away
Catch myself in a daze
Rocky memories
of mountain cemeteries
winter nights in the backyard I go
just to escape all the sound of your
foot slip, hittin' on the pavement
cut your head on the bottle that night
But dear my precious woman
Somehow I knew it all along
And it hasn't been such an easy ride
I wont remember and dont worry I wont forget
So rest your tired angry eager mind
Wherever you are
I'm finding a brighter way
I'm pushing up the bell jar
making art out of your ashtrays
Take my word for it woman
Your ghost shows her face here
At least once a day
and I say
Back away
I'm turning corners
Not repeating cycles
of never ending yesterdays
So hello to your moment
It surprising when I look into
My own sweet child's face
like you're staring back at me
With eyes that I see
eyes that see what can be
Idle times are foreign to me
cuz you see
all this fleshy independence
makes a thoughtful run-on sentence
When you're writing in
invisible ink
