So I bust a gut Trying to rhyme. Just give me some time I will think of something That will blow your mind. Sooner or later The world will catch up with you, The mayhem I left behind. Washed my hands; I was clean again. Not really, Not really. I owe you this much My only child. But the love I feel Could burst through my chest, And I must confess A tear rolls down When I think of you.
I want to take you home, Keep you safe From the nonsense out there. I can’t bare The thought you are unhappy. Slap my face If I am impertinent; I live in my head. No shed, with porno mags. Yet I remain reticent. What must I do To prove my love For you? Maybe I am deranged And certainly Estranged from most; But you wove A spell I can't break. Take this as you will, I can't lie no more. Especially to me. Just want you to know.
If you don’t like it Then just fuck off. My house, My rules. Sure I’ll miss you, But not enough To want you to stay. It’s in my blood. Can’t get it away now, I am not deranged, Estranged from many people That I know. Some fucker looking for an antidote. I was too fiery, I saw fiery Too fiery for you.
I chose a life less worthy. Don’t think again. Put my finger to your lips Don’t lie again. Can’t we just begin Again? Not really sure. Some thing’s lay forgotten And blister on the floor. In sunlight.
Look dear baby What’s going on between us; Because I sense a difference Between us. Life can be tragic, But is magic At times. When the rhymes don’t fit straight. You can do it, You can do it, I know you can. I am your biggest fan. I will not remonstrate. The lyrics lost in translation. I didn't even know where they came from. Always on your side I take pride in your achievements.
I love the way you laugh. My soul cries out For a woman like that. You are not there for me So let’s make a pact. You know I love, leave that aside. You can ride me senseless; You love my cock, I love your cunt. A simple equation. Maybe I am too blunt. No time to mess around, Don’t be in the lost and found. You’re much better than that.
Did you ever love so much You just want to die? In the special moments of ecstasy. Now they only make you cry, And all the time You wonder why. But you can't make it better, No matter how you try. No kiss and makeup, And no more lies. So you take up A different life. Do it for the sake Of your sanity. Show your humanity. But don’t fuck up again!
Her touch indescribable. The scrambled bible in his mind. Was he dealing with an angel? Surely, surely. What else could she be? He gave what he could, Only his love. Prayed it would satisfy, But never sure. Remember, don’t forget, You’re a man. You desire And it’s pure. You never felt this way before? So what if it tears you apart. But what a start!
For all the women I never had When I tried to impress. For the love I gave And the love I had That never seemed to last. For the drugs and booze when I went too far A creature of excess. For the life I built And almost wrecked Yet built again from scratch. For the money I made And the lifestyle You cannot beat the cash. For the pressure I took, Common coal to diamond That just will not wash. For all the friends That I let down When they all went west. For I was just a man. Racked with doubt. Did i do my best?
Kiss me one more time Before I get onto that plane. But through the pain of separation An enduring smile remains. The smile remains. I hold you one more time. Your soft lips touch mine. Our heated breath turns me on so, But I must go. I must go. Now i sit alone and think of you, All the things that we could do. And all the clocks go slow Till i see you again. See you again.
I searched for such a long time. Was the hope of love fading Like the closing of the day? Or had it just begun, A fire that cannot die. I had been in love before, But never like this. One rapturous kiss Immediate connection. We had never met. And without explanation. All my thinking Meant nothing In the moments we shared. The tingle down my spine So much, so much I wanted her to be mine.
Even when I got sober I knew it was over. You didn’t have to go Behind my back. I would have understood. I wondered how you could, But that’s enough of that. Your not coming back, That’s just a fact. I wear it like a shirt I once had. So I bought new clothes, Getting ready to move on. Leave the past a memory Of what we once had, But now its all gone. You say your guys amazing, He aint crazy like me, If you just wanted normality I guess you got it. Our love was now broken, Just like the token promise I would never use again, But you think I will. So I walk and walk And the sun beats down. The air shimmers before me And all sound fades away, While the street closes in And I try to begin. Words drip from my pen Like the blood ink within, But where do they end?
I cant hear the beat of drums, But the silence always hums From the graveyard full of tombs. Where the patient dead lie Awaiting resurrection, why? The countless hopes that always die,. But the loop plays on, Long after the parties gone, And way beyond. You got the questions, I got the lies. Tell me what you know, How do feelings grow? Now give me a show Of the mundanity, The banality, The whispering finality. So soft, words barely spoken. Now memories are brocken. And my heart has awoken. You ask the questions, I tell the lies.
She was more than lips and eyes, A certain sadness perhaps I could repair, But our exchange on the stair Told of something else. She didn’t need me. Yes, she had a comic book beauty. To want a woman so much Hurts the guts. She sticks in the mind, Draws you in, You’re not sure Where it begins. Looking for a reason, But you don’t know why, She had you down to a”T”. You think you’re smart, But you just know more tricks than me. What a prick you were, And I can be objective, Irrespective of consequence. She loved you! What was wrong with you? Where you waiting for something else? You barely knew yourself? But now you know, A seed planted Will always grow.
Smooth, smooth, just like James Bond. Maybe I am a wizard with a magic wand? I can grant you a wish, or maybe two. When I fall in love, then it’s all about you. You stole my heart, but I don’t want it back. Keep it forever coz you’re my pussycat. I am on my best behaviour as you're worthy of that. Ooohh, babe, not what I seem. Give me a chance, could be the man of your dreams. If you want phantasy you gotta try me. Step into my world, you can be my girl. Don’t want you to go, stay and see, Now gimme a twirl, And you can be the very pearl I been looking for.
There is a story here, A man so bold, Something of a cavalier. Liked a challenge, Had no fear. This is how it's told. Riding in the woods one day He spied a maid, lovely to behold, And approaching her did say, "Good lady, take my hand, I mean you no disgrace". This is how it's told. His courtship was untutored, But his chivalry took hold. And what he lacked In natural grace, Was made up in a kindly face. This is how it's told. But he reflected sadly, Girls want more, and are not sold On brave, courageous knights Who will fight For a woman. This is how it's told. She said “remove your breeches Courtly love is all too cold. So many manners, So little sex". He stammered for a reply. This is how it's told. She left him like a wet fish on the bank, Looking very far from bold. Confused he dressed without delay And asked "what just happened?”. She replied “you are my third today!” This is how its told. If anyone should doubt this tale, Of fallen men And fallen girls, Take heed and think again. No bold knights, No fair maids, Simply men and women.
Would you have me dancing with no one? No communication, or emotion. Beauty repeats like flowers in spring. I have only one thing In mind. A kind expression, And so it grows From there. Once the bareness Of despair. The shoots of hope, Happiness and love Spring through. These I pursue With every fibre.
Is this an olive branch I see, Or some barbed stick to beat me? Not seeking an apology that once, You gave so freely. The viciousness of your attack, Would break the back of lesser men, But I am made of more. The crown for hurting, And the OBE, Well won, Fair play, But they are yours. Perhaps they open doors, But not mine anymore. I think you’re better than that. Maybe not. Maybe I was wrong all along, But I do know you once shone. Take care with that knife you got. The sharpest steel Draws most blood. You cut me deep. I guess I healed.
Listen up, word up hear the call Not a day goes by How and why We ever happened at all You are never on your own Always on the telephone Young men by my pool Tennis coach and fitness trainer There is nothing plainer Drinking all my booze Ten pairs of jimmy choos Armani and Fendi clothes All purchased at Bon Marché Made you happy for a day Accused of intellectual arrogance I don’t get the rhetoric I want to lose the epithet Or I may lose my balance Yes, I was smart Had to be How else would I survive. But you still don’t get it It didn’t fall like Mana from heaven There were no lies I was always present You never worked a day Since you met me Said you couldn’t compete Well, do something else Meeting guys on writing courses Were these the only choices So, died my hair went underground Somewhere I, could not be found Never made a sound That’s how it was for me Bohemian insanity Led me to follow Another's arms and neck And to the sacred hollow What the heck She was not for me Yes, I wasted time If that’s a crime I’ll come quietly
Did you ever meet a girl, You wanted so much, But the structure of your mouth, Felt crushed, Tongue tied? You cannot speak to her, You have nothing to hide, But something to say. It ain't gonna reach her, Your world falls away. You seek her. Don’t go looking, You look like a stalker, Try again. If its meant to be, Maybe one day, You will meet her.
I wanted to hate her, but I couldn’t. Showed me something that I shouldn’t. I would not witness again, so I wouldn’t. I don’t tell lies to my dying day, So I walked away, And so I pray. Only thing I say, In my defence, There was no recompense, My love for her was spent. She came as a young man’s dreams, A kinda love, So it seems, Took me. Asked her number, Didn’t give it. Her husband home soon, So no room for me. Draft a different persona, So, I went casually, A visit to the docs. Took an STD, Said I was clean, But I wasn’t.
