The Final Silencing

Well today i finally fade away
i know in my heart no one will pray
because nothing good every hung from my name
except for two things that I'll always rave
if that was what i was only here to do
then I've done my part and it's time to go
i never had one regret when it comes to them
only that circumstance never let me close within
so today there's no turning back the hands of time
no pushing forward or hoping my next turn is passing go
never a Bishop or a King just a pawn on a checkered board
i worked and i worked always giving and rewarded with pain
i'm so tired beyond what they will allow or measure
as long as they always get what gives them pleasure
am i not a person ? am i not the father ?
to all of you that it concerns gladly always laughing
running around in your delight that i'm legally quilled into silence
but it's you who that have done all the wrongs and not the right's
covering it up with all the statutes and hiding behind blind ignorance
so no matter what i do to try and right what was wronged
i'm sunken and pushed deeper and deeper into the quickening
only the tip of my head has yet to get dappled and covered
so you see today is the day i will finally fade away
the only thing left will be the unpaid bills of strife
but i will be no more and free from this non-being of life.

It's a Rainy Day That Changes Me

The mornings come and its still dark
and i try to stumble my way about
yet it's time to start another day
but i don't want to

Everyone else is feeling fine
you can see it in their morning smile
but its harder than it use to be
living this life on this train wreck

I know they try to struggle with it too
day to day trying just to cover up the truth
the weight of it all the pressure pressing down
sometimes it even searches out the heart

But here comes yet another rainy day
falling down in drones making up misery
even in the night sending chills right up my spine
trying with all its might to drown me out

The pounding in my head wont let me sleep
the endless tinkling of the watery drops
its like it want to send me to an early grave
where it knows there will be no escape

But everyone else is just feeling fine
sickens you to see it in their morning smile
because it's even harder than it use to be
when you're living this life on this train wreck

Then one day while you lay there
someone tries to reach you through your darkness
pulling back just in time when you snap at them
but the goodness in their heart over whelms the grey

It's always a rainy day that changes me
something about the way it fades away
i can always hear it when it's coming
the pounding getting louder when it plays

It's always a rainy day that changes me
something about the way it smells when it leaves
like a heavy weight that keeps on giving
i just hold my breath until i'm blue waiting for relief

little drippings

there's just little drippings left
reminders of memories past
a minor window in their round bow
shows just a glimpse of sullen lit light

they slowly trail and then they fall
they wobble as they might until they conform
their tails following being pulled down
freedom complete in flight until they drown

splattered or swallowed upon the ground
soaking up the dust and spitting it out
scrambling for brothers or sisters
solemnly situated and lucky if found

pooling or not to each had no concern
lost from the first thought during original sin
premised, denial, unsanctioned or ill-intent
shadowed, caged, harbored, founded resent

no path, no road, no way, or no scent
memories, synectics, old dreams, no sleep
these are the things that creep when you peak
rem synced, nose bleeds, cold sweat, epileptical fit

hot blood, cold hands, strong will, hold on to your pillow
some time, no time, all time, the end already in sight
deep thought, no loss, temper tantrum, hot flash
evil's loose, on the run, no shelter from threatened harm

warm sun, morning dew, early bird, looking at you
sweet smells, far off bells, oceans roar, slow kiss
wrap your arms, cuddle close, slip inside, shut the door
last good bye, no more taste, out of focus, super bright light

There's That Sound

Some days there's a certain song
that grabs you by the heart and soul

It means so many special things
sometimes it catches you by surprise

It can even bring a tear to your eye
could be it reminds you of everything
your life all summed up in what it means

Could be it reminds you of your past
what you lost never to get back

And then some days you hear a song
and it reminds you of better days

It brings a special smile to your face
that only you know the secret to its pace

And it could be the one to make you laugh
making you think its been way too long
since you took a chance to let someone in

So don't you worry too much
soon enough they will play our song

Bringing back all those memories
so wonderful and so magical

They will make you light on your feet
sometimes they make you feel complete

Maybe you were having a bad day
and it was just what you need

Some days there's a certain song
that grabs you by the heart and soul

It means so many special things
sometimes it catches you by surprise

Isn't that what life is all about
oh...there's that sound

180 Degrees

Well there's gotta be a mile
of open road
between you and me baby

I thought you and I
were bringing it home
we were closing the gap

You and me baby
hot and heavy
pedal to the medal
we were revving...ya

No worries about the dangers
lust is just for strangers
this one is for the win

The checkered flag is out again
who will be the one
a draw or tie across the line

Your white smoke
shows your failure
both our black marks
are all crisscrossed

Will you concede
or will you claim the fame
how can you look at me
knowing what you took away

Now I'm running lean
totally out of calibration
the needles in my jets
wont seat themselves still

My floats are filling fuel
my spark is timed real ill
my timing is all messed up
my distributor is 180 degrees off tilt

And there's gotta be a mile
of open road
between you and me

I thought you and I
were bringing it home
i thought you and I
we were closing the gap

You and me baby
we were hot and heavy
we were pedal to the medal

We were revving it up
revving it up
revving it up...ya

Now you've gone
and blown me away
taken my title
and broken my heart

Leaving me
all alone
in the dark

All alone..all alone
all alone

Leaving me
all alone
ya..all alone
on this road

And there's gotta be a mile
of open road
between you and me

Honey if you would only
turn around...180 degrees

We Will Live On

If you would of told me
that one day
we would be right here
i would of told you
baby i don't care

Listening to all the signs
looking for the right rhyme
to reason all of this
before the doubt sets in

We used to hold hands
enjoyed the mornings
no one could separate us
they couldn't even touch us

But some where down the line
i guess we lost track of time
the new dawn got there before us

How did we get so slow
neither one of us eager to met it
i guess we just grew old
so tired to see it

If you would of told me
that one day
we would be right here
i would of told you
baby i don't care

Because when you're by my side
i don't have to run and hide
together i know we can enjoy it
this life we live together

From dusk to dawn
we know we will live on
leaving those behind that love us

Hoping for their dream
hoping they learn what it means
to love someone forever

And if you would of told me
that one day
we would be right here
honey i would of told you
baby i just don't care

We used to hold hands
enjoyed the mornings
no one could separate us
they couldn't even touch us

No..no..no
they couldn't even touch us
couldn't even touch us

No
couldn't even touch us
baby..my Honey

All Those Fears Come To Life

I went to bed hoping for a new day
I fell asleep and then they came

All my deepest fears in my dreams
carrying me straight to that place
I don't want to..no...want to see

And those fears come to life
every time i try..try to fight

Something inside bursts aloud
I scream and claw to get out

But for some reason
I just lay there still
once again she's in control
of my mind body and my soul

There's no chance to run away
this slumbers rage and rock n roll
so in my memory I'll just look away

Oh i can't let her win
if I'm gonna keep my sanity
gotta believe in my faith of me
close my eyes and dream her away

Can't listen to her lies
cuz if i do
I know I'm gonna die

She's everywhere I'm gonna look
she's every place I'm gonna be

She's in my mind
she's got her hooks

Dug in deep so they will bleed
i can't even shake her from my sleep

Please someone wake me up
shake my bed like an earth quake
pound on my door with ferocity
wake every one including me

Please don't leave me here
caught in a nightmare with her
she scratches at my every thought
sinks her teeth in and tears me out

And those fears come to life
every time i try..try to fight

Something inside bursts aloud
I scream and claw to get out

But for some reason
i just lay there still

Once again she's in control
of my mind body and my soul

Ya all my deepest fears
carrying me straight to that place

Please don't leave me here
she scratches at my every thought
sinks her teeth in and tears me out

She sinks her teeth in and tears me out
she sinks her teeth in and tears me out
sinks her teeth in, sinks her teeth in
and tears me out

All This Life

Well a negative can be a positive
when you're sitting home alone
and people can become real animals
when they plan to steal your bones

The creak of the door is your only warning
that someone's come a calling in the night
they want to remain in the darkness
they want to steal your thoughts without a word

So hard to put your trust in someone
so hard to let them come on in
too heavy is the price one pays
when you want the love to begin

You know there's always some danger
when you leave to go out on your own
there's evil in the hearts of strangers
when they're hell bent on bringing you down

Down down down...ya..ya...ya
bringing you..bringing you
down....down......down

So you....look to the sky
saying...oh lord take me now
there's nothing left of me
to give to someone in return

Everything that was my world
ripped from me..from my chest
even though i gave it my all
even though i gave it my best

I got...no more hope
and I've lost all my dreams
all the things that i believed
and i think I've lost the reason
for what it is all this life really means

(by Roelin Davis all rights reserved 9/28/2014)

From Each Other

well the moon is on the move again
coming out from behind the clouds
racing

it stirs up those old feelings
and i get all into a whirl
just thinking
ya..wondering
where you are tonight
girl

and if you think of me
once in a while
if you remember
the kiss that we shared
under the moonlight
when the stars shined so bright

it's as if they all knew
that it was destiny
to end up here
ridiculously alone
wishing for a repeat
to savor the moment
again

i can't help re-living the experience
seeing you in my dreams every night
cant seem to get you to disappear
from my mind or thought

there's the way you look at me
you don't even blink
keeping me in focus
in the warm soft bright
moon light

and holding you in my arms
was the only goal worth chasing
because it was you that kept me strong
anything else was just wrong

it's like we were meant to be one
like the world couldn't spin
if we were split apart
but here we are
miles and miles from each other

you know
some things have to have the pain
stems from way deep inside
to let us know what we're missing
to give us something other than pride

I Had a Dream

when i was young
i had a dream
ya it stuck with me
throughout most of my years

then life hit me oh so hard
punched me in the gut
ya it made me bleed

dragged me through the love
lifted me up and threw me down
stomped on my heart with its heel

after that the dream was lost
i didn't even try to pretend
i just wanted to be by myself
get to know the person in the mirror

and before i knew it life had passed
my soul content it's who i knew
no one to hurt me anymore

just trying not to dream
putting it all in the past
isn't that what you would do
won't you tell me honestly

but life is funny
about how it won't let go
bring you back in the circle
from the straight and narrow

and i remember
when i was young
i had a dream
ya it stuck with me
throughout most of my years

then life hit me oh so hard
punched me in the gut
ya it made me bleed

dragged me through the love
lifted me up and threw me down
then it
stomped on my heart with its heel
ya as hard as it could

grinding me into the dirt
trying as it might
to really make it hurt

what good is a life without a dream
something to believe in
something to make you smile
to make you want to wake up

just to hear her voice again
but now that's all gone
it's all over... forever
it's not what i wanted
but she said she had to go

what good is a life without a dream
something to believe in
something to make you smile
to make you want to wake up

when i was young
when i was young
ya..when i was young
when i was young
when i was young
ya...i had a dream

wasn't there ever enough

holding you close to me
at least in my memory tonight
there's this sadness left
something of great loss
a big chunk of my heart

somehow over time
I'm still thinking of you
it's just like yesterday
this feeling i have
like you still are in my arms

but i know its just a fantasy
there's something inside
that just doesn't want to let go
so here i am thinking of you
i cant get these tears to quit

so once in a while
i hear your name
on the lips of our friends
and i turn around thinking
you're gonna walk in

what's wrong with me
i know we let go
why does my heart
not want it to end

my mind was made up
and so was yours
so why do i want to re-capture
the good when we began

seems like something inside me
never wanted it to end

(repeat from beginning)

I Hope He's Late

Ya I'm coming home
and thinking to myself along the way
I'm gonna be on time this time

Cuz i don't want to
see your sad face pouting
the dinner's gotten cold
and you're not warming
up to me tonight

Such a sad sad face
you've turned that smile
you always had upside down
I've been working much too late
and now you're feeling all alone

It's another crazy day
laid down before me
i can't help but watch the clock
not wanting to disappoint

Time moves so slow
when you watch it go
and then it flies away so fast
ya before you know

It's been the past
and it's been the present
it's the future
that we can't tell

Hope for the best
that's all we can do
that's all we can do

Now you say you've
had it way up to here
you can't survive not knowing
if our love will prevail

Baby can't you see
get your head out of the clouds
every thing that i do
i do it for you
ya i do it for you

Working past daylight
I'm coming home to you
my fingers bleeding to the bone
and when i get home
you're not even there

the lights are off
all your stuff is gone
the place is empty
not even a courtesy note
you couldn't even wait
to say goodbye
there's only echos off the walls

You even turned the phone off ?
just how am i supposed to call you ?
you know i got a lot to say
like uh...wheres my laundry ?
wheres my clothes ?
where's the dogs bowl ?
how much do i feed the cat ?
when is the rent due ?
my credit cards are maxed ?
wheres all that food we bought
just the other day ?
where's the rest of my paycheck ?

Hey you're not fooling anyone
you ain't coming back
you plan to stay gone don't you

Well fancy that..hope he's worth it
hope he's late to all your dates
hope he's late to all your dinners
late all those fancy parties you want to go to

Your food wasn't all that great anyways
why do you think i was always working overtime
you almost burnt the house down one time
come to think about it
how come all those firemen knew your name ?

Why Should I Believe In You

Don't know what time of day
don't care cuz it's all the same
never know when direction comes
cuz I'm blown by all the "whens"
you know
sometimes new doesn't mean begin

My heart is in my hand
broken promises like a sea of glass
and i can't seem to break it apart
even from the heat of this hell
you always put me through

So here i await
hoping for a sign
from God, the stars or you
you love to make me wait
never an answer nor the truth

So tell me
why should i believe in you
you never show yourself
you never run to my side
you never help to hold me up
always somewhere else

Inside I'm breaking up
inside I've lost my hope
inside I'm deeply cut
inside when the tears well up
inside I've lost my light
inside I'm crying out

Is this what you call love
is this the way you love
is this the way you get out
is this how you run to hide
is this so you don't get hurt

So here you make me wait
I'm hoping for a sign
from God, the stars or you
you love to make me wait
never giving me an answer or the truth

You can run and hide
all you want, all your life
but you'll never escape the truth
you gotta live with yourself
when you break the bond of love

Inside I'm breaking up
inside I've lost my hope
inside I'm deeply cut
inside when the tears well up
inside I've lost my light
inside I'm crying out

Is this what you call love
is this the way you love
is this the way you get out
is this how you run to hide
is this so you don't get hurt

So tell me love
why should i believe in you
when you never show yourself
when you never run to my side
when you never help to hold me up
when you're always somewhere else

Fly Baby Fly

I can see
there's some unsaid
i can tell
it's lingering on your lips

Something you want to say
but you would rather not
so you turn and run away

Run away...run away
as far as you can go
you run away
and you're gonna fall

You're just gonna take it in
letting them babble with a grain of salt
putting the blame on you
making it all your fault

I tried and i tried
to make you see the light

But you wouldn't listen to me
too much going on inside your head
too much coming down on you
at least that's what you said

Now you've flown the scene
you didn't even say goodbye
maybe that's what i saw that day
when you wouldn't look me in the eye

I can see
there's some that's unsaid
i can tell
it's lingering there on your lips

Something you want to say
but you would rather not
so you turn and run away

You run away...run...run away
as far as you can go
you run away
and you know you're gonna fall

You're just gonna take it in
letting them babble with a grain of salt
putting the blame on you
making it all your fault

You're gonna fall from grace
especially when i find out
just what it is you did
why you felt so disgraced
you couldn't even talk

I tried and i tried
to make you see the light

But you wouldn't listen to me
too much going on inside your head
too much coming down on you
at least that's what you said

Fly baby fly
you gotta get as far as you can
you gotta hide away

Cuz you fear
they're gonna be coming for you
and drag you back to me

It's all in your mind
this fantasy that's blinded you
dreams that came to life
your eyes playing tricks on you

What will you do
they're laying their hands upon you
telling you what you want to hear

Trying to force you
to go against your will
but you wont let them win
you're not not gonna let them in

Try as they might
they can't make you see the light
you're not gonna let them in

No-one's gonna know your sin
no-one's ever gonna know
what it is that you did

You're just gonna take it in
letting them babble with a grain of salt
putting the blame on you
making it all your fault

Making it all your fault
making it all your fault
making it all your fault

Fly baby fly
you gotta get as far as you can
you gotta hide away
you gotta hide away
you gotta hide away

The Bringer of Darkness

I'm waiting
for the slamming of the door
I'm waiting
for the yelling and screaming
to start again

In your eyes, in your eyes
I've done you wrong
but I'm not the one
who's always gone

No...no...no
I'm the one alone
always waiting
for when you come home

The frustrations building
i need some answers
and i need them now

Who's this other person
that everyone's telling me about
and why am i only hearing
about it now

Drifting the silence is my calm
can't get any sleep
cuz I'm waiting for you now

The bringer of darkness
the keeper of the key
the wanderer lost to me

Day after day after day after day
when will this torture ever stop
when will this torture
when will this torture
when will this torture ever stop

So I'm waiting
ya i'm waiting
for the slamming of the door

Ya I'm waiting
silently waiting
for the yelling and screaming
to start again

The frustrations building
i need some answers
and i need them now

Who's this other person
that everyone's telling me about
and why am i only hearing
about it now

Day after day after day after day
when will this torture ever stop

When will this torture
when will this torture

When will this torture ever stop

Wondering If Today's The Day

Saying my prayers today
sweating up a storm
wondering if today's the day
that you'll be leaving me

Oh I've tried everything
to relieve what you believe
but there's no breaking down
the walls you put in front of me

So day after day
when the sun reaches the stars
i come home to you
to find you're no where around

Why is it you constantly lie
why is it that makes you to prefer
to lay with some other guy

No this isn't what i deserve
i always treat you way to well
so how can you sit right there
having the balls to look me in the eye

Forked tongue Devil's whore
you know you do it to yourself
when you plan on doing the sin
one day it's all going to cave in

Why don't you pack up all your things
just get it over and be done
it would be so much easier
to come back to an empty home

Oh my heart bleeds for me
my tears they won't stop their run
my chest feels so much like a void
my head is spinning out of control

This love you say you have for me
well i gotta say it's for the birds
there's no room for anyone
in a place that's as cold as hell

Forked tongue Devil's whore
you know you do it to yourself

How can you sit right there
having the balls to look me in the eye

Oh I've tried everything
to relieve what you believe

So I'm saying my prayers today
sweating up a storm

Wondering if today's the day

That you'll be leaving me

(by Roelin Davis all rights reserved 8/17/2014)

Wish It Was Then

I see you now
wish it was then

But would it be worth the trouble
so much sin

Our bodies entwined
we were as one

But you were hers
and i was his

And i see you now
i wish it was then

Back in the days
when we didn't use to pretend

Throwing all caution
to the wind

Holding hands secretly
trying to hold in our lust

The time is flying by
no i don't want to let go

Can't stand another minute apart
it's like I'm going to die

Ya I'm going to die
please don't let go

Going to die tonight
killing everything

Ya you're killing me
with kindness

Don't know if i deserve it
can't help this feeling

Cuz i see you now
and i wish it was then

But would it be worth it
the trouble being

So much sin
so i wish it was then

I wish it was then
i wish it was then
i wish it was then

Feel It In Your Bones

There's the light on again
it's so bright when it begins
the sun comes up so quickly
just way too early for us

Loving the night for the darkness
feeling the cool of the moon
always shining down on everything
that's when we feel alive the most

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

There's a whisper on the wind
there's something in it's tone
better run and find a place hide
before you become one of the missing

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Those footsteps are getting closer
people stopping just to stare
no mirrors close to save you
besides the reflection you wouldn't know

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Their hunger is for the wicked
their posture is forever bold
always looking for their weakness
always trying to find a way to get in

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

They don't have faith in Jesus
they don't even believe Moses
or that he parted the great red seas

They couldn't care if you call on God
they know he won't intervene
there's no such thing as justice
after they've gone and left you to bleed

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

The white light it's come a calling
it's your time to take you away
but you can't move your still crying
this life you didn't want to leave

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Not Waiting Anymore

Did you think I would wait forever
too many nights
with a broken heart
you know you've left me here
crying in the dark

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on

So did you think I would wait forever
while you had your fun
out on the town
all my friends would call
telling me
how you did me wrong

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on
I'm moving on
I've had enough
ya I'm
I'm moving on
on and on

So did you think I would wait forever
to hear your lies
to listen to how
you're gonna change your ways
you've hardened my heart
now I'm strong enough
to tell you good bye

Good bye, Good bye
I'm ready, ya I'm ready
for a brand new start
can't wait for this feeling
to lift me up
there's a new horizon
with a brand new day
it's me..ya it's me

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on
ya I'm moving on
no more waiting
I'm free
ya I'm free
free to believe in me

So I'm not waiting anymore
don't call me on the phone
don't waive hello
when you see me in the street

don't come by knocking on my door
late late at night
you're not welcome
not in my life...anymore

When You Want to Cheat

I'm working on a way
ya something to believe in
a place I can call my own

Somewhere deep in my darkness
have to keep it hidden deep within
ya I can't afford to let it get on out

Girl you came to me on a winters night
promising me everything and the moon
but you never, never kept your word
you got the same old excuse
always saying it's...it's way too soon

I know..i know
you love to tease me until i burst
i know...i know
you love to taste me when I'm feeling hurt
i know...i know
you love to crank up the heat
i know...i know...i know
when you want to bring me down
ya girl...when you want to cheat

Out on the dance floor
you know you're the flirt
you do it with everyone else but me
girl just how am i supposed to feel
when you have eyes for all of them
how am i...how am i...supposed to compete

You won't let me go
when i say it's time for me to leave
i know deep down there's nothing here for me
but something...something compels me stay
especially when you look me in the eye
i just melt down to my core

There's nothing in this world
more than the way i want you
there's nothing brighter than a star
that wont keep me from seeing you

Ya I'm working on a way
ya something to believe in
a place i can call my own
you got the same old excuse
always saying it's...it's way
way..way..way...way too soon

Girl...when are you gonna let me in
i don't know...how much longer i can wait
you're never by side when i need you most
i can't ever get you on the phone
cuz when i come by....you're never home

I know..i know
you love to tease me until i burst
i know...i know
you love to taste me when I'm feelin hurt
i know...i know
you love to crank up the heat
i know...i know...i know
when you want to bring me down
ya girl...when you...when you
when you...want to cheat

Can't Make Her Stop

Seven silver pieces thrown
down at her feet before the moon

With the fire burning bright
someone is trying to steal her soul

A dark voice come from the shadows
making promises to keep it away

Even the call of the of the morning sun
doesn't keep her from dancing all night long

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
no one's around to hold her down

This life she says is filled with holes
no one ever knows
which one will suck you down
and then spit you out

In the time that we have left
come on boy lay on down
let me be the one
before it all comes undone

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
no one's around to hold her down

Why does everything have be so extreme
why in the world
can't it just be fun
for you and me

Between you and I
why can't we try to find a way

Baby it's time, you know it's time
this world as we know it

It's spinning around and around
it's making me dizzy...stop

My head's in a whirl
when i think of you girl

And I'm gonna...I'm gonna
I'm gonna explode
I'm gonna be all over everything
just you wait your gonna see

Oh cant make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz no one's around
no one's around
no one's around
to hold her down

She's a sex pistol baby
she's just waiting to go off

You can't lead her around
you can't trust her on her own

Or the next thing you know
she'll be letting you go

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Brain Freeze

I get chills all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

So many days...so many days
feeling the warmth of you next to me

Now its all gone in an instant
what will i do...without you

So lets stop pretending
that this can lead to anywhere

What once was so magical
is now a path into darkness

Now neither of us is holding a light
to show the other a way out

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

Watching you running out
fleeing...never even looking back

The cold...slowly seeping in
right where you use to lay

Sending shivers up my spine
can't keep myself warm enough

Will i make it through the night
my heart laying there on the floor

Ya right where you left it
just like you've done
so many times before

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

Girl you give me brain freeze
my head is spinning from my nose

Girl you give me brain freeze
ya I'm bleeding out on the floor

Girl you give me brain freeze
my soul is shriveling to the core

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
like sucking fast through a straw

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
and i know...i know...you won't be
walking back through the door

hmmm...hmmm...hmmm...hmmm
you know you give me brain freeze

give me...give me...girl you know what you do
you do it all the time...girl you know it ain't right

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..when i think of you

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
like sucking fast through a straw
like sucking fast through a straw
like sucking fast through a straw

No One Around

I wake up in the morning
i look at myself in the mirror
And i don't know who i am
what's my name, what's my plan

How did i reach this time
how did i become this man
I feel like I'm caught up in a trap

Inside i still feel young and strong
But when i try to exercise it
it becomes clear that i have restraints

Why can't i let out a cry for help
no one around to hear but myself
Maybe it's time to go the other side
move on and let someone else.. reside

There's only so much room on Mother Earth
If i haven't done anything to help by now
What can i do to prove my worth
what is there to say that hasn't been said

What kind of person am i if i won't let go
i can see my silver string is getting weak
Sometimes i know everything is losing control
no way to try and steer myself back to you

One day you might have go your separate way
you might have to leave me here in my own world
It's not that i don't want you close or want you near
it's just i don't want you to worry or have to shed a tear

I'll be with you in my memory
as we pass in the night
Darling you will be with me for ever more
Oh Honey it's okay, i know I'll be alright

So open up those pearly white gates
take my final judgement as i await
this time I'll have to say my last good bye
as I'm looking back I'll see my last fall

(by Roelin Davis all rights reserved 4/8/2014)

The Price We Pay

What if i could...throw it all away
just one final push...all i need
would you even...pray for me

And although i can barely hear
i would try to focus
on your selfish demand
asking me to come right back

I've tried so many times
banged my head and fists on the walls
too much going on
filling up so fast I'm in overflow

Can't contain the mess
my world as i know it
is so out of control
can't catch myself looking in

Don't know where I've been
when i wake up on the floor
don't even know this person
looking back at me in the mirror

Is there any retribution
for this life i have to live
is there some sort of redirection
steering towards my promised land

I look into your eyes
how can i ask for forgiveness
when I'm the one to blame
shown my weakness for all to see

No i can't blame you
turn your head and look the other way
pretend I'm not in your presence
our hearts and heartache

It's the price we pay

Darkest Hell

My heart picks tonight
my heart picks tonight
ya to feel all the pain
that you put us through

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
you know you didn't have to do it
dragging me through the darkest hell

The creatures of night
they are hovering all over me
trying to tempt with their evil ways
but it's only you, you that i can see

You must of cast a wicked spell
it must of cost you a lot of your soul
because of the power it must of took
to keep me blind to what you call love

But i got the power to break these bonds
you couldn't see, you didn't know it
but I've had it all of this time
I'm gonna snap these chains in two

Now the tables are gonna turn
your voodoo's gonna get returned
baby it's you that's gonna get burned

I'm gonna sleep real good
knowing it's you that's going to ruin

No more sleepless nights
no more tossing and turning
only holding my pillows tight
pretending I'm not alone

Seeing the same ol dreams
night after night after night
it's wearing me thin
it's been bringing me down

I been getting so frail
i can't even seem to eat
knowing you're out there
out on the town laughing it up

And all of my friends say
you've talking, talking me down

my heart picks tonight
my heart picks tonight
ya to feel all the pain
that you put us through

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
you know you didn't have to do it
dragging me through darkest hell

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
But i got the power to break these bonds
I'm gonna snap these chains in two

Now the tables are gonna turn
baby it's you that's gonna get burned

Just Out Of Touch

I see your face from time to time
and i know you're just out of touch
ya you're on the other side

And the hardest part is
when you don't even know
when I'm there watching over you

The years pass while i stand still
everyone's moved on but me
still living and trapped in the past

Every day is the same for me
trying to live on what i have
no way for me to get ahead
living a life of poverty

Relying on those who swore to protect
pretending everything will be okay
but what else am i supposed to do
not knowing where or how to find you

You say words of hate
but you don't even have a clue
you've been misguided all this time

I'm not the one
who doesn't want you to know the truth
it's quite the opposite

I've been loving you for all your life
it's always been unconditional

My little angel
you're always on my mind
my world of wonder
look how you have grown

Even though you never known
i have been watching over you
gathering bits and pieces

Living through this window
living through this window

Never knowing how much i love you
never knowing how much i love you

Thinking i forgot you
but that's not the truth
that's not the truth

That's not the way it is on this side
that's not the way it is on this side
that's not the way it is on this side

Unconditional, unconditional
my love is unconditional

I'm always watching
ya I'm always watching
hoping someday you'll let me in

But until that day
i know you're just out of touch
ya you're on the other side

Just out of touch
just out of touch
every day is the same for me

And the hardest part is
when you don't even know
when I'm there watching over you

Just out of touch
just out of touch
Just out of touch
just out of touch

When Life Says It's Done With Us

It seems so far away
what we're all looking for

Don't want to be alone
but that's the way we all learn

That's the way we all get to feel
you know it takes time to heal

And along the path we walk
sometimes there we see the lucky ones

They get to hold hands throughout time
they get to wake up feeling warm

Ya like there's nothing wrong
pulling on their silver strings

And when life says its done with us
hopefully we earned the right to move on

Holding the love from our life that we shared
reliving the memories that made us care

To be a better person that lead us here

You know it seems so far away
what we're all looking for

We don't want to be all alone
but that's the way we all have to learn

That's the way we all get to feel from it all

And you know it gonna take time to heal
a whole lot of time to make it part of the past

Got to hold on to hope to see the next horizon
to watch the sun arise and to see it fall

Then suddenly you can feel the heat
the heartache becomes ashes that accumulate

That's the way we all get to feel from it all
when life says it's done with us

When Life Says It's Done With Us
(repeat)
(repeat)

Hopefully we've earned the right to move on
the right to move on
ya the right to move on

When Life Says It's Done With Us
(repeat)
(repeat)

Something Good

Man that old chunk of heart
has got you all tossed up
and muscled down

Who would of thought such a thing
was even possible
that it was a current event

I know right now
all you want to do is sit around and cry
until the tears dry up inside

But you have to see
day by day the pain slowly fades
and the darkness turns to gray

Next thing you know
someone's holding out their hand
trying to show you a better way

You don't have jump all in
but it wouldn't hurt you
to let a little out

Smile a the sun will shine
this i promise you
you just have to scream and shout

Time will tell if the scars will heal
if you can find a place to forgive
life's too long to live with such a heavy heart

But if you can open your eyes
just a little to see whats in front of you
maybe... just maybe
something good might slip in

Like A Love Song

I wanted to love you like a love song
always singing the sweetest things
trapped in a world made up of me and you
the sun would always shine on us
and the moon would look down upon us with joy

Oh i wanted to love you like a love song
i dreamed it would be you and me for eternity
I've been looking at the bigger picture
the one where we walk down the isle
saying our holy vows before God and every one

Ya i wanted to love you like a love song
i wanted to love you like a love song
like a love song, like a love song

Singing it to the farthest star that we can see
higher than the highest cloud
so far it would last for an eternity
it would last for an eternity, can't you see
for an eternity, for an eternity, for an eternity

Oh i wanted to love you, i wanted to love you
like a love song , like a love song
like a love song, like a love song
baby like a love song, you know it
like a love song, like a love song

Oh i wanted to love you, i wanted to love you
like a love song, like a love song
baby like a love song, you know it, honey
like a love song , like a love song
like a love song, like a love song

I wanted to be your knight in shinning armor
I wanted to be the last one you would kissed good night
like a love song , like a love song, baby

I wanted to be your loving husband
like a love song , like a love song
oh i wanted to be with you night and day
like a love song , like a love song
like a love song , like a love song, darling

Like a love song , like a love song
like a love song , like a love song
so warm and comfortable

Like a love song , like a love song
like a love song , like a love song
how can i live without you, darling

Like a love song , like a love song
like a love song , like a love song
always singing the sweetest things

You know i dreamed about it
you and me for an eternity
like a love song , like a love song
like a love song , like a love song, baby
like a love song
love song baby

This One Woman Man

I should of listened to the screech
of the night owl warning me
but you know i couldn't sleep
for myself i had to see

cuz the calling of the devil's reach
somehow grabbed me deep
trying to make watch

While you make love in your deceit
while you make love in your deceit
while you make love in your deceit

I should of kicked you to the curb
I should of listened to my lesson learned
I should of made you go far away
I should of been sad and alone today

But i can't get you out of my head
I can't close my eyes because i see you there
I can't even try and run away
because you'll find me every day
because you'll find me every day

I don't want to listen to my heart
I don't want to give in and lose my cool
I just want to die already and get over you

I need to find my promised land
I need to find a love that wants to belong
ya to a one woman man

A woman who knows how to stay strong
when the good times and the bad times
are begging us and beating us to the ground

I need a woman who knows not to quit
who can bring me up when I'm feeling down
a woman who knows the right from a wrong
who know I'm gonna find out in this one horse town

You know it...i know it
so baby what are going to do
when the sin comes all over you
and you do what you do
what you did ...when you did

Honey you know i can't play this this game
I'm just in no way even strong enough
my heart is broken in too many pieces
the knife's in your hand, it's is in way too deep
for this fool..this one woman man

This one woman man
this one woman man
this one woman man

Free

Just how many times will the longing last
how many dreams am i to endure of my past

It's like I'm hanging from the highest tree
no one to help, no one insight to see..me

I can feel the breeze blowing me
i can feel this life it's like a disease
crashing over me, washing me away
ya infecting every part of me

There was time when i felt free
sun on my face, oh the joy it brings
why can't i have it all the time
why is it
that you always have bring me down

Bring me down, bring me down
ya bring me down
you always have to
bring me down
down to the ground
ya break my crown

You just can't leave it alone
so don't you speak to me
don't say my name
don't talk to me
i can't hear you words
they're worlds away

Just how many times will the longing last
how many dreams am i to endure of my past

It's like I'm hanging from the highest tree
no one to help, no one insight to see..me

I'm like a hot pan popping out
waiting for the burn to sting
can't help hearing all the voices ring
can't help what they bring
losing control soon I'll be free

Soon I'll be free
soon i will be free
i will be free, i will be free

Free...free...free...free...free

No one to control me
no one to tell me what to do
no one to stop me
no one to come home to

Free...free...free...free...free

Why is it
that you always have bring me down
why is it
you just can't leave it alone

Free...free...free...free...free

Free

Waiting For Us To Re-Begin

So many sounds and so many words
too much to do and all about nothing
this world running wild, running wild

It all keeps going on in a spin
turning round, it's turning round
nobody knows when it will stop

And this thing that you call love
given to me fully free from your heart
i plan on holding close to me for eternity

I'm never letting go
it just gets more powerful
even if you happen to leave
before me

I still be holding on
wondering when we'll meet again
waiting for us to re-begin again
for the next stage

You used to say the darnest things to me
you used to dream of things that couldn't be
then the next morn you would try to explain them
some how they all got to be way too far in depth
for just a simple man to try and fathom

So off you went to find a place to be heard
honey i hope you listen to lessons to be learned
but you never came back, never found your way

So many sounds and so many words
too much to do and all about nothing
this world running wild, running wild

It all keeps going on in a spin
turning round, it's turning round
nobody knows when it will stop

The Sunset of Life

Tonight tonight i get to kiss your lips
I'm imagining they taste like wine
being the sweetest in all the lands
no sense in rushing this
you and i we have all of time

I can sense you are trembling
can you see it so am i
the heat has been building up
between us the attraction grows strong
what comes next is only natural

The night is calm and the moon is out
i touch your hand and you pull back
unsure if you think this will be wrong
so you fain some sort of discontent
while you look at me with those eyes

Somehow everything's turned up side down
the love that i thought we shared
some one else has planted an evil shard
some one else is working behind the scene
some one who hates the thought of love

Who could they be and why do you listen to them
how much power do they hold over you
what is their plan and why did they chose you
and how far will they go to keep control over you
why can't they see that true love will prevail

I'll be your white knight, I'll be your hero
I'll be the one who saves you from evil
I'll be the one riding a big white horse
bringing hope for tomorrow

I'll be the one who comes
and slays your personal devils
I'll be the one that sweeps you off your feet
saving you from all your sorrow

Together we'll ride off in to the sunset of life

Knowing When The Time Will Come

When the sun turns into water
when the light turns into dark
when the heartache turns to sorrow
when desperation turns into tomorrow

When the tears drown out the fears
when the wind becomes your friend
when two hearts drift apart
that's when you will see me again

That's when you can call me friend
that's when the world will end
that's when when time will stall
that will be a cold day in hell

See what you've done to me
see what you've done to me
can't bring myself to light
can't make a wrong from a right

I keep looking in, i keep moving on
this life i live, no where to belong

Can't let the voices in, can't be so weak
always closing in, why can't i be more strong
knowing when the time will come

The dullened knife you used
the way you always choused
playing me for the fool
making me feel like a tool

You say you still want to be friends
after you cut my heart in two
don't now if it will ever mend
but we know this has to be the end

See what you've done to me
see what you've done to me
can't bring myself to light
can't make a wrong from a right

Can't let the voices in, can't be so weak
always closing in, why can't i be more strong

Knowing when the time will come
Knowing when the time will come
Knowing when the time will come

Be the One

I didn't want to believe
i wanna block out the truth
i wish it was yesterday
so i can be here with you

I guess i should of seen the signs
i should of known something was wrong
but in my defense you didn't let it on

Saying you were staying out at your friends
while after work I'm sitting home all alone
wondering where you are and who's holding you

I wake in the morning
just as you're coming in the door
your hair is all messed up
eye shadow across your face
I've seen that look before

Oh i didn't want to believe
i just wanna block out the truth
and i wish it was yesterday
so i can be here with you

Now it's too late.
oh ya way too late
to turn back the hands of time
i see you for who you are

Standing before me in a daze
like you had your hands
caught in the cookie jar

So this is where we are
i guess i should of seen the signs
i should of known something was wrong

Saying you were staying out at your friends
while after work I'm sitting home all alone
wondering where you are and who's holding you
but in my defense you didn't let it on

Oh i don't want to believe it
i wanna block out the truth
and i wish it was yesterday
so i could be the one

To let you go
to let you go
you know i wanna be the one
to let you go

I wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the only one

To let you go
to let you go

Ya i wanna let you go
ya i wanna let you go

I wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
be the one , be the one
be the one , be the one

I keep sinking

What is this power
you have over me
no matter what i do
i can't break free

And although I try
with all of my might
i cant seem to take flight

Oh i keep sinking in way too deep
and i keep falling with surprise

I could flee to the end of the world
and you would already be there waiting for me

The time is right, can't you see
the planets are all aligned just for me
the force of this pressure calling me

Too much has gone on
the bridge we stand on
has fallen in the stream

Oh i keep sinking in way too deep
and i keep falling with surprise

I could flee to the end of the world
and you would already be there waiting for me

So don't you try, following
don't you get up in front

Cuz i don't want to see you again
i don't wanna be that person
you wanna call your friend

You keep clinging on
i know you don't wanna let me go

But this heart of mine
just can't handle it
there's no more love

Oh i keep sinking in way too deep
and i keep falling with surprise

What is this power
you have over me

What is this power
you have over me

Oh i keep sinking
i keep sinking
i keep sinking in way too deep

Raising My Hands

Some people put me down
but i don't judge them

Some people do me wrong
but would rather think
them unintentional

Because if i give in to them
i have to loose my faith
in my fellow man

And time is too short
to put them up before me
when there's no thank you
from none of them

So i raise my hands
in dis-belief
not trying to make an effort
to understand

God's master plan
how it affects me
how to live, how to stand

But still i keep moving on
ever forward, towards the sun

My time is almost done
and still I haven't found
what it is I'm looking for

This heart of mine
has seen them come and go
it's known the loss
of love you know

Don't you believe in me
I'm holding my heart in my hand
giving you the man I am

It's all that i have in this world
that i can truly call my own

Are you looking through my windows
can you tell what you see
is there a future for you and me

Or do i raise my hands
in dis-belief
and try not to make the effort
to even understand

About God's master plan
how it affects me
how it affects you

How am i to live
how am i to make a stand
without you by my side
on this crazy roller coaster ride
that we call... life

It Always Says

I'm dying ... I'm dead
because you penetrated me
deep
now there's blood red writing on the wall
ya it always says it all

Bringing on the doom
all the aftermath and the gloom
til the dust do us part
it started from the start

Lip stick on the mirrors
incomprehensible from the smears
death smells from the love
it looms from up above

Ya I'm dying .. now I'm dead
there's ringing in my head
the voices don't want me to speak
but my heartache makes me leak

There's no misunderstanding
what it is we're still planning
vengeance has no time limit
it's all about
what you're really ready to admit

And we all want to know
just who will be the one to blame
when it all comes down in flames
who's love was wild and untamed

Ya I'm dying .. now I'm dead
so let's let it stay unsaid

Your silence says it all
and when you look away
the message is so clear
you would rather be with them
than to be right here

Ya I'm dying ... now I'm dead
because you penetrated me
really deep
now there's blood red writing on the wall

And you know, and you know
what it says
it always says it all

And you know, and you know
what it says

It always says it all
it always says it all
it always says it all

In To the Light

Don't you know the lights
way down low
almost out of sight

Don't you know the sounds
perfectly tuned
an LP turning to the right

Don't you know the feel
soft to the touch
you in the moonlight

Don't you remember the dance
skin tight dress
turning round and round

Now whats this
our future
one plus one equals two

Now whats this
the product of our love
her eyes look just like you

Now whats this
the years have flown by
its time i have to leave you

Reap What You Sow

What do you want
what is your need
desperation and beliefs
one and all
they make you bleed

Internal sunshine
will scorch you thru and thru
the midnight madness
will feed the fuel

Don't believe them
when they call
just defend yourself
from the fall

Run and hide
because they will kill you
if they catch you
they'll skin you alive

Evil woman
you speak with a forked tongue
always whining with your plans
of global domination
to get rid of every man
ya we don't need them
and we'll prove it
time after time

Now we won't go down
without a fight
I'm here to tell you
Evil woman
this will be the night

Steel to steel
heart to heart
fire in our eyes
thrusting with our thighs
firm and stanched
with all our blows

We fall to our knees
stricken with disbelief
too many lies
too many plans of deceit

You know one's gotta go
you reap what you sow
Ya that's right
you reap what you sow

Cant Take It

I cant take it anymore
gonna shovel your evil shit
right out the front door

Ya i cant take it anymore
your constant bullshit
honestly drives me insane

The way you talk to me
screeching like an owl
my ears filled up
with this grating twisted pain

Do you ever shut up
and listen when others talk
its like you really get off
the more you have to over speak

I'm so tired my legs are weak
trying to run to any room
from you there's no escape

And i cant take it anymore
gonna shovel your evil shit
right out the front door

Ya i cant take it anymore
your constant bullshit
honestly it drives me insane
to the point of doom

Why cant you be happy
with the way things are
we cant change the past
and our future is untold

Cant hold back the hands of time
a new world turns up at dawn
change is ever near
no matter what you hear

I can't take it...anymore
I can't take it...no no no
i can't take it, i can't take it
i can't take it...anymore
(repeat)

Maybe There's Still Some Hope

If it takes time I'll be here waiting
my dying breath until the day is done
there's still hope in the break of dawn
we should of seen it coming
we should of anticipated the rush
there's no going back the deed is done
wishful thinking reading lips along the way
somethings just up on our horizon
but the path is blocked with blood
there will come a time for dreaming
deep deep sleep will be forgiving
the silver thread cut for eternity
now you descend from up above 
leading the rest with all your lies
you take way too many chances
always on the run from you and I
always on the run from you and I
always on the run from you and I
if it takes time I'll be here waiting
on my dying breath until the day is done
on my dying breath until the day is done
on my dying breath until the day is done
there's no going back the deed is done
there's no going back the deed is done
ya we should of seen it coming
we should of anticipated the rush
wishful thinking reading lips along the way
somethings just up there on our horizon
maybe there's still hope in the break of dawn
ya maybe there's still some hope in the break of dawn
ya maybe there's still some hope in the break of dawn

Who Knew

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

What a wonder when you are near
the angels seem to sing
what a surprise when you're gone for so long
trouble follows you through the door

My life as i know it gets all mixed up
the days are jumbled
even time seems to stand still
i don't know which way i just came

You keep leading me on and on
how you can drop me and be so cold
my heart feels like its in the valley of doom
where the darkness awaits to consume
and heartache claims to be the reddened rule

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

Times of trouble double deep
crimes of passion my blood at your feet
my heart in your hands split from end to end
no room for me with your sin

Dripping seething with despite
you're gonna try to win every fight
you've already lost your soul
the evil inside grows and grows

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

Who knew, who knew
how things get all turned around
when you're forced
to play it day by day

Run Away and Hide

She's been a stranger in this love
don't get to see her very much
when she's around won't look me in the eye
I don't even know why she tries

We both know it's all come undone
we lost the spark we lost the fun
you know when it's over because it hurts inside
just going thru the emotions of this roller coaster ride

Up all day and all through the night
worrying about the last words we said
one never knows when it begins
just how this new love will turn out or how it will end

So you sit around wondering if you'll ever find
someone to love someone to be your friend
listen to your worries and help you to understand
what this life's mysteries behold
and what you can hold ultimately in your hands

Mortality is never so apparent than when you're all alone
life's question are never so unclear than when no one is near
and you wonder what it is that you were put here on earth
what will you leave for the future something that's a part of you

There's nothing worse than thinking you been an outcast
from your own family, friends and children too
this feeling of loneliness that consumes every part of you
there's a gloom that follows every footstep that you make
hidden deep inside is the pain of every heart break

Oh she's been a stranger in this love
and I don't even know why she tries
we both know it's all come undone
because we lost the spark...we lost the fun

You know when it's over
because it hurts inside
We're just going thru these emotions
of this roller coaster ride

Roller coaster ride...Roller coaster ride
just want to run away and hide
Roller coaster ride...Roller coaster ride
just want to run away and hide

ya ..I just want to run away and hide

Too Many Prayers to the God We Love

If you find me
after I've fallen
don't try to pick up the pieces
of me

Leave them right there
where they've fallen
maybe one day
i can claim it was just a dream

Girl cant you see
what you've done to me
this cant go on

I put my trust in you
i was such a fool
now I'm in oblivion
with no one to love

So if you find me
after I've fallen down
just leave me where i lie

Maybe some day
ya I'll be saved
but not today
no it won't be today
it's too far to climb

Just leave me here
in the darkness
where i can be alone
and try to pretend
nothing's wrong

So if you find me
and I've fallen
fallen down
just leave me there
just leave me there

Don't try to touch me
bring me round
I'm lost without you

Girl cant you see
what you've done to me
this cant go on

Lies and deceit
are what you bring
it goes on and on

Too many wishes on a star above
too many prayers to the God we love
too many questions that get no answers
too many nights being all alone
too much heartache building up
too much heart break about this love

Maybe it's time to just let go
feel the freedom and the light
maybe all along it's what was right
cuz baby all you want to do is fight

So if you find me
and I've fallen
fallen down
just leave me there
just leave me there

In and Out of Phase

This life is all that i know
this life is all that i know
from my head down to my toes
from my past to the future told

That love i use to embrace
that love i used to love to taste
those tears i used in disgrace
those years gone by in waste

Oh i can handle your indiscretion
I've waited for this long to see
we're all just human, protecting
waiting for something to believe

But i just can't see my way
when it's you that plans and deceives
why am always the one to unfold
when you come at me and scream

It's time for me to get my back bone
this time it will be you that wonders why
because this is who I've been holding back
from biting my lip when i had my doubts

You can't seem to have an answer
the questions hitting their mark
avoiding eye contact when you lie
don't you think i know by now
you don't even care
if this heart of mine wants to cry

Now i sit all alone
this house my cell
it's a prison of darkness
the nights so cold
i see the past and future
like a ghost in and out of phase
the tears and heartache
they come and they go
