Resonant Lyrics

the words flow
decisions made
idea’s mine
but the inspiration not
dreams of hangers-on
dreams of getting well
spells of esmeralda
amarose fortold

splinters in the eye
sentiments remain
bones are never asked
where are we going to
it was never up to me
and yet i pushed until it broke

i love the open road
and all that it suggests
wheelwagon dust
weeds and infidelities
and always swore our love
never questioned why
in a wooden house
immovable and silent
and drinking strawberry wine
forever lost in town

and through the sleeping streets
nightbound and heavy
wheels in a spoke
just a spoken foreign sound

know my gates are high
my friends even higher
forgotten in my mind
yet the scars still lingering
cloud the blue skies
i’m jealous of you birds
was the only truth
in a world full of words

hear the prairie sound
in a friend called near
the heart is pointed down
but my spirit pointed up
his voice the siren
of greek mythology

i pause with my pen
i begin to defend
every action taken
every moment sealed
when i was quick
it coursed through open veins
the will to live
the urgency to move
behind a panel door
sealing cherry stain
i played my guitar
and lived those lonesome notes

like a dog that’s down
in a corner just aside
waiting to be called
waiting to be yours
ghosts of a machine
without purpose or will

i’ll often speak of you
but the you was always me
’cause when i speak of me
it’s me i ask of you
so let there be no truth
just trickery in rhymes
time the only thing
waiting still is death

i hope for resolution
pray one defining moment
pause without restraint
barren without child
a child is who i was
a child is who i’ll die
a child is who i’ll die

soot in my hair
and stars in my hands
soot in my hair
and stars in my hands
soot in my hair
and stars in my hands

goodnight, to every little hour that you sleep tight
may it hold you through the winter of a long night
and keep you from the loneliness of yourself
heart strung is your heart frayed and empty
cause it’s hard luck, when no one understands your love
it’s unsung, and i say
goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
goodnight, always, to all that’s in your heart
goodnight, may your dreams be so happy and your
head light with the wishes of a sandman and a night light
be careful not to let the bedbugs sleep tight nestled in your covers
the sun shines but i don’t
a silver rain will wash away
and you can tell, it’s just as well
goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day
goodnight, always to all that’s pure that’s in your heart

Within You Without You

We were talking
About the space between us all
And the people
Who hide themselves behind a wall
Of illusion
Never glimpse the truth
Then it’s far too late
When they pass away

We were talking
About the love we all could share
When we find it
To try our best to hold it there
With our love
With our love
We could save the world
If they only knew

Try to realise it’s all within yourself
No one else can make you change

And to see you’re really only very small
And life flows on within you and without you

We were talking
About the love that’s gone so cold
And the people
Who gain the world and lose their soul
They don’t know
They can’t see
Are you one of them?

When you’ve seen beyond yourself
Then you may find
Peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come
When you see we’re all one
And life flows on
Within you and without you

The Beatles

Freedom’s just a word today – freedom’s just a word
When someone takes your word away, it’s seldom ever heard
So take a sentence full of things you’re not supposed to say
Carry on… but don’t write ‘em down, or you’ll be gone

Love is just a song today – love is just a song
When someone takes the song away, you seldom sing along
So take those lyrics serious and sing your life away
Carry on… but don’t write ‘em down, or they’ll be gone

All we ever do is talk – we like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy we get bored
Why can’t anybody see – what’s good for you is good for me
I can’t take your silly world – I can’t take your silly world no more

Peace is just two fingers now
Peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt
You knew to count the days
So take those fingers, tape ’em up, and shove ’em up your ass
And carry on, but don’t try it now, ’cause peace is gone

All we ever do is talk – we like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy we get bored
Why can’t anybody see – what’s good for you is good for me
I can’t take your silly world – I can’t take your silly world no more
We fight our instincts – we go to extremes

We fight our lives

Stone Sour
Silly World

Thought I heard your voice yesterday
When I turned around to say
That I loved you baby
I realize, it was juss my mind
Played tricks on me

And it seems colder lately at night
And I try to sleep with the lights on
Every time the phone rings
I pray to God it’s you
And I just can’t believe
That we’re through

I miss you
There’s no other way to say it
And I can’t deny it
I miss you
It’s so easy to see
I miss you and me

Is it turning over this time
Have we really changed our minds about each other’s love
All the feelings that we used to share
I refuse to believe
That you don’t care

I miss you
There’s no other way to say it
And I, and I can’t deny it
I miss you
It’s so easy to see
I miss you and me

I’ve got to gather myself as together
I’ve been through worst kinds of weather
If it’s over now
Then I’ll be strong
Can’t believe that you’re gone
I’ve got to carry over

I miss you
There’s no other way to say it
And I, and I can’t deny it
I miss you
It’s so easy to see
I miss you and me

Oh there’s no other way to say it
I can’t deny it
I miss you baby
It’s so easy to see
I miss you and me

Oh no other way to say it
I miss you baby
There’s no other
That you’re deprived of me now
That you’re deprived of me now
I miss you
Said I can’t deny it
I, I, I, I miss you baby
It’s so easy to see
I miss you and me
