Peace in Words/ Acceptance

I drink good coffee every morning

Comes from a place that's far away

And when I'm done I feel like talking

Without you here there is less to say

I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy

What is closer to the truth

That if I lived till I was 102

I just don't think I'll ever get over you

I'm no longer moved to drink strong whisky

'Cause I shook the hand of time and I knew

That if I lived till I could no longer climb my stairs



Your face it dances and it haunts me

Your laughter's still ringing in my ears

I still find pieces of your presence here

Even after all these years

But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner

'Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do

Even though I may soon feel the touch of "love
There's still you
"

grateful...

I'm loose
Truth
I'm Like Inception; I play with your Brain he thinks
You will Loose

Grateful

-To Breathe
-To walk down this street and feel the cold breeze
-To feel the warm sun on my bare skin and shiver
-To be able to smile
-To be able to be touched
-To feel a hand on me: a hand with some kind of meaning behind it
-To have anxiety
-To have a heart that beats and not a heart that Breaks
-TO NOT BE SCARED OF SILENCE, MINUS THE MUSIC
-To not be Alone, again...

Laugh/Smile/Love/

When I woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad



Seem like total silence was the only friend I had


Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won


And it was twelve o'clock before I realized


That I was havin' .. no fun



But fortunately I have the key to escape reality


And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile


It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while


Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone


No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun






Last time I checked my bankroll,


It was gettin' thin


Sometimes it seems like the bottom


Is the only place I've been


I Chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end


And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen







Well, I sat down in my closet with all my overalls


Tryin' to get away


From all the ears inside my walls


I dreamed the police heard


Everything I thought... what then?


Well I went to court


And the judge's name was Hoffman






No.  I'm just tryin' to have me some fun


Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun

Sweep the Ashes Please

Wish you would have told me when I was young
When I had space to fill and someone to become,
'Cause darling I'm beside myself and I don't think that you
Know which one of me you are talking to


I'm tired of trying to make it up to you

Sweeping the ashes and hiding the truth

I'm tired of pretending everything's alright

Let me feel, let me feel what I'm feeling tonight


Wish you would have warned me before today

That you had fallen out, your love had gone away


Wish I could have stopped you before you left

It was a lesson that you left behind instead,



Taking the easy way out every time




Come with me.....

I ran outside, right into you, and instantly you said you knew

that you were the only one, I'd ever need to know

You said you knew the answers

and you said, that it's just another day



I came here with a voice, a chance to make a choice

an island of a mind, with bridges built with time


I'm not saving grace, use it all the time

sometimes it gets misplaced, denies that it is mine

and then I just can't see, I get lost in misery


Come with me
