Lullabye

Wednesday, July 6th, 2011

Goodnight, goodnight sweet baby
The world has more for you
Than it seems
Goodnight, goodnight
Let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams

We took a small flight
In the middle of the night
From one tiny place to another
And my parents they remained
At the shack with Lorraine
And my aunt and my Grandpa and brother

One Angry Dwarf And 200 Solemn Faces

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

I said what you wanted to hear
And what I wanted to say
So I will take it back
Are all the dishes intact?
Let them be broken
It’s easy to be
Easy and Free
When it doesn’t mean anything
You remain selfless, cold and composed
You’ve done me no favor
to call and be nice
Telling me...

Stop the bus
I wanna be lonely
When seconds pass slowly
And years go flying by
You gotta stop the bus
And get off here
And I’m leaving this factory

And all she wants
Is food on the table
And I won’t be able
To bring it home
And all I want, come on
‘Cause all I need , yeah is free

Boxing

Monday, June 21st, 2010

Howard, the strangest things
have happened lately when I
take a good swing at all my dreams
they pivot and slip
I drop my fists and they’re back
laughing
Howard,

my intention’s become
not to lose what I’ve won
Ambition has given way to
desperation and I
lost the fight for my eyes

CHORUS
