Sunday Driver (Part Two)
It doesn’t matter if the forecast is blue Especially if his wheels are stuck in voodoo Spinning around until he’s out of fuel Never seems like the sun will ever shine While he drives down the passing lane Leaving it all beyond the beyond Mentally stuck in the turn lane May never turn back home…

Meth
Sometimes you just can’t be still and freeze the endless movement of your body parts. Especially your mouth that’s been running amok for six hours consecutively without a break. I know people are watching me at work, in public and even family when I get a chance to pull away to visit. The sadness in…

Break Point (Of Perception)
I feel mistreated wore down and beaten Diagnosed by the system lost and unspoken Somebody said something now I’m in the line of fire I opened my heart to receive it and lost my worldly desire There was once a momentary lap of reason Now we’re all reaching the breaking point of perception I’m on…

The Idealist
Every day flows Like a passing show And I will always question The things we know I’ve studied people’s philosophy And found myself digging for TRUTH I’ve read people’s poetry And I hear the cries of youth Sometimes I feel insecure But I know it’s the driving force of the artist Sometimes I stare into…
