In Between Somewhere...


There are those who cry

There are those who fly

And in between somewhere

I am…


There are the innocent

There are the grievant

And in between somewhere

I am…


There are the unfortunate

There are the prophets

And in between somewhere

I am…


Nowhere to bee seen

I'm far from the scene

Somewhere in between

You'll find me way away from the din


There are the giants

There are the peasants

And in between somewhere

I am…


There are the atheists

There are the surest

And in between somewhere

I am...


There are the addicted

There are the lauded

And in between somewhere

I am…


Little do we know

How we come and where we go

Somewhere amidst the glow

You'll find me there, guiding you through


Nowhere to bee seen

I'm far from the scene

Somewhere in between

You'll find me way away from the din

Stage


And so they try and drop a line
It's them out here acting all divine
I didn't say a word until they forced my mind

It's all a lie
It's all been staged
And I realized that
The hardest way

You can either, sit or lie there
Blow and burst bubbles, or get away from here
Watch her dance, to the sound that doesn't exist

It's all a lie
It's all been staged
And I realized that
The hardest way

Must watch my steps, got to walk this time
On my own, now that I've started to learn
With opening eyes, how to raise my voice

It's all so fake
A community a cult
No piece of cake
For me to handle

So I can either
Sit or lie here
So uncomfortable
Or get away from here

Since it's all a stage
I'll take the lead
Make my mark and
Leave it for the rest to see

Ode to Mad Man


Good night young one
You don't need to cry
Tomorrow the sun
Will be on the other side

Life is unfair
For you my little one
You are something rare
Hence I point the gun

I sense fear
You are free to cry
Go wild my dear
Just before you die
Your face is an open book
I can see right through your eyes

Perhaps you are unaware
Or insignificant
Like this single strand of hair

But I know we both here share
It's just that you didn't
Listen to mom who told you not to go there

I sense fear
You are free to cry
Go wild my dear
Just before you die
Your face is an open book
I can see right through your eyes

Put you to your final sleep
With a voice so sweet
So smooth, decpetive and shy
In a mad man's lullaby

4am



My thoughts are deep

But my actions are slow

I am not asleep

Rather, in a trance of lucid flow


I want to get out of here

Just free the night

I'm now counting stars

There's hardly two in sight


The city is half awake

And the signals blink red

This is when I can relate

When you'd rather be in bed


The ocean here is quiet

And the moonlight is bright

I'm not alone, never can be

There are voices all around me


It's been a while now

My body's growing numb

I'd better be walking home now

And see what I've become


The music grew louder

As the sun started to rise

A chill surrounded me

What a feeling, what a sight


It's funny how one of my worst nights

Turned out to be one of the best

My eyes finally closed after dawn

It all seems like a dream now, as I reminisce
