Pillow
Pillow As I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord, your soul to keep May your dreams be filled with visions Reflections of your grave decisions May God forgive your evil soul You watched me bleed from a jagged hole Placed through my heart by your cold hand I don’t think God will understand As I lay...

Treasure
Treasure As I ride the taunting ripples Of life's red (golden sea), My treasure by my weary side The sun, it slips beneath me. I fear the darkness, as it comes With its cold wet hands; Slapping me on my sunburned back As if, somehow, we're friends. The fear of black; I'm blind! No moon to guide my...

On Top Of the World
On Top Of the World Oh, what a day, life is grand Standing on top of the world The world he holds in his sweet hand His oyster – I’m the pearl I’m higher than the tallest pines His love is my enhancer Entangled in the rainbow lines Is where I found the answer No pot of gold was waiting there No...

Haunted Grim
Haunted Grim Rotten boards of floor Splintering beneath me; Cobwebs of décor Mark untraveled paths. The sound of death, like drums Or rather my terrified heart; Spirits whisper to my brain, “No one lives here in the dark.” Echoes screaming all around, My skin is sliding off. Murdered bodies never...

Worn Out Shoes
Worn Out Shoes If your shoes could write About where they've been Oh, the story they would surely tell; If you could take your sight And remember when Life was good and you were living well; You would see the glory Of your life to come Way before I was ever in it; Your life-long story And the...

Old Man
Old Man Cold are the hands of father time Grabbing at my flesh, you see No matter where I finally hide He always seems to find me In the mirror he stares at me Laughing like a child At night he dwells within my bones Old man, leave me alone Everyday, year by year He takes a piece of me I count the...

Blue
Blue River rushing swiftly Through my veins Thunder clapping loudly In my chest Trees leaning, waving Like your hand Lightning flashes, striking Fear in my eyes Rain, falling, crying Hating goodbyes Bluebirds singing, happy Skies are clear My heart, mostly cloudy I am blue by CR Shelley

Lovesick
Lovesick What’s the matter with me Why do I have to love you Why do I have to care so much When it’s easier just to hate you Sometimes I think that it wouldn’t hurt To cut out my bleeding heart Sometimes I think that you’ve been chosen To handle the cutting part And there I go, thinking of you...

Dog’s Best Friend
Dog’s Best Friend If I were a Saint Bernard, I’d pat my master’s head; I’d make him fetch my rawhide bone While I remained in bed. I’d teach him to roll over, To sit up and to beg. Then I’d take him for a walk So he might stretch a leg. Now, please don’t get me wrong; I’d still look up to man. As I...

Spurs of Diablo
Demons on my back Riding me Like a burning stallion Speed begging the passing winds To feed the fire that is my mane I want not! To cruise this flaming lake Lap after lap as if I enjoy This red hot bridle - bit blistering My mouth, I want to scream But I’m whipped into submission As spurs of Diablo...
