Topic: words waiting for music

naked as a baby
wandering through existence
not so good at asset gathering
growing older with persistence

trying to remember
today might not last forever
not so hot at going solo
dreading when its all all over

headstrong and wilful
kind of cruel description
not so keen on fighting battles
listening low and high for inspiration

come back this way
butterfly
land again and fold your wings
cross and fertilize
start the flow
the way we need
to touch
to grow

peace returns like a long lost friend
as if it had never been away
hold on to time as if it will not end
as if things will always be this way

where is the candle flame?
strike a light, heat up stone cold
don't share or take the blame
this is not under your control

where has the summer gone?
protect yourself, put on more clothes
don't let it hurt or get you down
rain just falls and wind just blows

it's the reaching out
it's the touch
it's the wanting to express
so much

it's before and beyond
it's through all
it's the way things were and are
impossible

one seedbed to another
across a bridge of twenty years
wide leap of faith
despite what's right
has brought us here

one mistake and then another
stepping stones across the pond
self obsessed belief
despite the truth
has made us strong

Now Playing: 'giving your vision a voice' - eclips by Kevin Walsh (www.crescentmoonmusic.co.uk)
Topic: words waiting for music

thought that i was innocent
thought that i was pure
but i led astray the holy men
and now i'm not so sure

led astray the holy men
the priests who dressed in black
led astray their tender lambs
holy vengeance seeks attack

thought that i was innocent
thought that i was pure
but i led astray the holy men
and now i'm not so sure

Now Playing: 'live confusion' by confushian
Topic: words waiting for music

is there something
we could change
that would be good
to move about
or re-arrange?

scared to make
bad things come true
keeps me keep
away from you

is there somewhere
this can go
that won't
interrupt
or stop the flow?

scared to make
bad things come true
but I guess I'm me
and you are you

Now Playing: out of the bedroom vol iii
Topic: words waiting for music

when our words
get confused
can't easily discern
what is mine
what is yours

it's good
it's fine
it's just
i have a need
to retain
to find
a little piece
of what can be
defined
as what is mine


everyone a snowflake
falling on a sea of white
a blanket worn and warm
flake by flake engaged and strong
unable and unwilling
to be unentwined
or left alone

Topic: words waiting for music

white beard
red anorak
stretch your legs
sit alone
what brought you along?

secret smile
you spot my pen
seen before
mystery man
see around again?

your wife's alive
but love is not
too many years
have bored you both

white beard
red anorak
walk around the hall
out the door
back to her?
