The Question

Photobucket

Static, static
Stay as you are
Don't make a move
Because you are static

Don't bring me change
Don't bring about a chase
I'm sitting here
For I am static

The dynamics are not dynamic
Not until I say
And why not sit here a little longer
And drink some more tea?

For I am J. Alfred Prufrock
And this is my love song
As I stay here
And escape the haunting question

But may I turn
twist, tumble, g l i d e
Away to the castle turrets
And I'll watch as life shoots arrows of fire

And then I must make a choice:
Change your course of action
Or stay the same and suffer
Missing out on everything

The dynamics are spinning dynamically
But it's taken a lot to set outside my door
And prove that I don't have to live boringly
So here I go

Will you answer your life question now?

You Want to Know?

Photobucket

See, the thing is,
That you can take me out
From my comfort zone
But I'll still be me

Oh no, I won't argue
Against the fact that I'll change
I know I'll change
But I'll still be me

I won't conform to your ways
Or your ideas
On the way life should be
Or anything like the kind

So put me in a fairy tale story
Put me in a historic book
Put me in a graphic novel
Put me in your memoir

I won't conform to your feelings when I'm just me

Natural Contrast

And Sometimes I Wish I Could Have Been Her

There you see me
But really you don't
Because it's me living within my own lines:
Silhouette

You can't judge me on
Exterior appearance or
Interior motives:
Silhouette

Can I keep my anonymity?
When I'm interviewed by you?
Because it protects my insides:
Silhouette

When I'm shooting the bullet
When I'm flying against the moon
When I'm dancing to my music:
Silhouette

When I'm famous
When I'm gone
Will the sun still shine behind me:
Silhouette

Backlit, Silhouette, Beautiful, Silhouette

Where is your heart now?

Photobucket

Where is your soul?
When did you stop believing?
Did you see your grace and style
Fly out from beneath your feet?

Have you trapped yourself?
Have you caged everything
- good and bad -
To stop yourself from feeling?

I recall this is the feeling
of being an animal encased
and entrapped and snared
Am I that pitiful that you look away?

So when will your luck change?
When will you figure it out?
That I'm not the enemy -
That I'm only trying to figure you out?

¿Dónde está corazón ahora?

Sip That Soup

Found Love in a bowl of Soup

I feel as though my heart should burst
Any second now
Any second now
I swear it will

Something everyone wants
Everyone craves
Everyone needs
No exceptions

But what are you willing to give
to take, to do
In order to get it, to have it,
to keep it

Sit on the sidelines waiting for her to ask you?
Run up to him and tell him your feelings?
Hope that you won't mess up and in time
Everything will come naturally?

Yeah, me too.
My heart could burst
The next time I see you
Despite what I tell it not to do

Love is such as alphabet soup
What letter will you get
What can you see
Will you find those letters

'M-E' ?

Wash Away the Dreams

The Rain is the rhythm by fermented
The Rain is the Rhythm by Fermented

I've been left here
Stuck in mud
dirty, unwanted, cold,
unloved

Is this how I'm suppose
to decide what to do?
With this rain in my eyes
and my dreams poring down on me?

Will someone grab my hand
Because I don't want to do this
alone anymore.
Like I've done my whole life

Pull me up
Pick me up
I don't want to be stuck
I don't want to be stuck

Alone anymore
Can you make it stop raining
Can you pull my heart from the mud
Can you try to do it for us both?

Help me out from this muddy bottom-less puddle.

Joy & Sorrow

Photobucket

how can i tell you
just how much you really
actually truly do
mean to me?

my frustration is apparent
and lack of showing emotion
really sets things off
wouldn't you agree?

but all that aside
i will tell you
right here and now
how i really feel about you

being with you makes me:
feel whole, smile, cry with joy,
realize that i have a purpose
far greater then i can understand

so why do we have to make this so hard
to get through when it should be
you and me
me and you

i wonder if i disillusioned myself
right from the beginning
thinking that it was really going to be
simple, easy

maybe i don't understand everything
and maybe you want to keep it that way
but i'm fine with that
if it makes you happy

because that's what i want for you
above everything else
even if, its hard to say,
that doesn't include me

i just want to see you and see you happy
