Now Love

There comes a time
when the cold feels like the warm
what you know gets turned upside down
when the wind seems like sand
then it all gets turned around

Just when you thought you knew
it's not time to give up yet
don't let go just hold on
my heart just cant go on
without you

A dream within a dream
what does it all mean
where do we go
now love

This life must go on
how can we understand
how do we live on
now love

What will you do
when the darkness follows you
where will you find the light
to show you the way

Two hearts
all tangled and torn
weathered through and through
they're trudging on
now love

Casting their forms in the snow
hear the angels weeping
all too busy to know
some one has to feel for them

So cold on their own
no fire to warm their soul
they just live their lives
day by day
now love

One day
hoping to hear the call
looking for love
a way to leave the darkness
running for the light
when it appears
now love

Jumping in again
this time will it be the one
a new beginning for them
will they find love
now

Will they find love
can they find love
will they find love
now

Sneaky Snake’s Looking for You

You're a spoiled snake,

That lays in wait.

And I’m just a game that you play.

While you stake out new prey,

Oh why do I stay with you?

This old heart of mine

Well it can stand the test of time.

But it can be broken.

This you know and understand.

You toy with me like Satan’s spawn,

Darkness falls when you're around.

How can you say you love me?

With that forked tongue.

I can’t even look you in the eye,

Knowing you been messing around.

My heart and soul buried deep

In your plans I know.

I'm looking for a way out.

Can’t get a grip slipping south.

Your wicked ways get what they want.

This whole world is your playground.

But I’m not gonna just lay down,

I’m working on a plan.

Gotta get up off the floor,

Gotta look for that hidden door.

And you know when I do,

It will be my time,

To get rid of you.

Oh you know how to hypnotize,

To make me your fool.

How to get me to do

What you want me to.

Oh I’m lost and I can’t be found,

Especially when you're around.

Oh help me if you would please,

I’m trapped down here underneath.

Can't you hear my call?

Can’t you be my savior?

I’m banging walls.

Desperation is attacking me now.

Can't breathe she's choking me.

I'm ready now, just show me the light.

The finally battle I know its right.

Before my eyes,

Freedom’s just a step away.

Gonna leave you darling,

I’m slipping away.

Beyond your grasp the feeling's so pure,

The war is won now,

You dirty whore.

Transcending materialism,

There’s no more deep despair.

My nights are cold but my heart is finally warm.

My soul is feeling safe from harm.

No more sneaky snakes,

No more false hope,

No more of your evil ways,

No way to get spellbound

From your devilish charms.

Well I’m free, free at last,

Free from every listening to your trash talk.

I'm on that last road walking solo

Looking for paradise.

The After Glow

I'm rolling, I'm rolling
over and over
I cant get any sleep
caught up in emotion
I'm really in too far
I'm way in too deep

You
you are like an angel to me
far from above
you descend on me brief
I want you to stay
but you always have to leave

I call you
but you're not by your phone
emotion has got you
you're out having fun
I'm searching and searching
home all alone

You
you are like an angel to me
the things that you say
make me want to believe
over and over
I try to understand
what makes you have this power
over this one

Sweat is pouring
when we make our love
this emotion overtaking us
its like a calling from above
the moon is still shining
the glow is protruding thru
makes you look like an angel
from one of my dreams

You
you are like an angel to me
flying up so high
landing where you need to be
lifting poor lonely hearts
like the one you see in me

And I
I can't believe
that you're here with me

And I
don't want to open up my eyes
I just want to keep this dream
for eternity

And I
I'm gonna keep this love
burning deep inside of me

And I
I want to see you
in the after glow

And I
I want you here with me
here with me

And I
I need you here with me

And I
I want you to know
I'll always be right here for you

And I
I want to see you
in the after glow

Ya, Ya
in the after glow
in the after glow

And I
always gonna need your love
need your love
baby I'm gonna need your love
need your love

And I............

Blinded by the Thirst

The darkness comes
when you surround me
the midnight calls
so I try to break free
from your so called love

You're never with me
when I need you the most
always some where else
but when I call you
somehow you're never lost

When you lead me
when you're here to make love
I can't help it
hypnotized by your eyes
but they keep wandering
looking at the bedroom door

I can tell our time is running low
because you say you have to go
you'll leave in a whisper
saying you'll be back for more
I can't take your cheating
so don't you come back..
anymore

No, no , no, no
don't you come back
anymore

My heart is broken
it can't handle all this pain
the way you've been misbehaving
has got to be a sin
Honey I just don't understand
how could you throw it all away
leave me for those other men

Baby didn't I treat you fair
oh wait I'm forgetting
you don't really care
no, no , no, no
you don't care

Some one's breaking
poor foolish hearts
she's misbehaving throughout the night
so cold to the touch
I was a fool for believing
she could love only one man

What in the world was I thinking
this was doomed from the very start

I should of seen it coming
but I was blinded by the thirst
hoping she would be the one
to heal my heart sick wounds
to stop all these years of hurt

but she kicked me in the teeth
used her body to put me in the dirt
so there I lay flat on my face
my soul not mine for me to keep
this time I'm lost for sure

My eyes are closed
as I pretend to sleep
ya she's heading out the door again
this time she's not coming back
she thinks she has the upper hand
but I already took her key

She'll be someone Else's problem now
let them play the part to be the fool
let them be the one to worry each and every night
if she's even alive or laying in a ditch
she won't bother to even let you know
because her phone is always set on vibrate

The Ballad of Blind Heart Wallow

I fell thru the skylight window
when I found out what you were up to
I knew you weren't being faithful
but I had no proof to bring to you
but boy was I a fool

Who was that man that was with you
how could you do that to me
so many years I was faithful
now with this brand new revelation
can't help all these feelings
my poor heart broke in two

I tried to catch you cheating
now I wish I never had
the blind lives a different life
sometimes its just better not knowing
oh they say ignorance can be bliss

You say you won't be home early
I'll be cooking dinner just for one
honey I know where you are going
you're heading for the cheating side of town
you know my poor heart is weeping
as I change the door locks now

Cuz you won't be cheating
treating me just like a fool
honey you might of got away with it before
but now I'm looking at you harder
eyes wide open to your wayward charms

I fell thru the skylight window
I knew you weren't being faithful
who was that man that was with you
sometimes its just better not knowing
oh they say ignorance can be bliss

You say you won't be home early
honey I know where you are going
you're heading for the cheating side of town
you know my poor heart is weeping
this is brand new revelation
as I change these door locks woman
while you're out with that man

Why don't you let him take you in now darling
you spend way more time with him
I've already helped you with you're packing
you see I've had all night while I was waiting
hoping you would have a change of heart
no I didn't want to lose this loving
I just didn't know it was already gone

Oh they say ignorance can be bliss
Sometimes its just better not knowing
it's all a brand new revelation
the blind live a different life
but it changes when you catch them cheating
cuz it breaks you poor heart in two

Oh they say ignorance can be bliss
Sometimes its just better not knowing
the blind surely live a different life
and it's all a brand new revelation
when your woman not being faithful
and becomes just another ex-wife

I'll leave it all up to you

It makes me mad
It makes me sad
It makes me so angry
I shake my fists
The way you all use my name in vain
it just drives me crazy
ya it's all insane
to think you care that much
to make me your blame
Can't you see
why should I care when you all dare
to choose the path you take
that causes heartache and despair
Death and destruction all the world round
ya I might of had to turn my back on you
because I can't bear to watch all you cry out
when it's you who needs to be better than this
I've tried to hold your hand
guide you with a master plan
but you yanked it back
exclaiming "I don't need you man !"
So I left it all up to you
just to see what you could do
I'm sorry son you fucked it up
it might be too late to fix what's gone
The legacy that you'll leave
just might be seeded in all your graves
Oh I'm at my wits end with all of it
just don't know where to begin again
How could you let it get this way
I had high hopes for future dreams
an Utopia filled with peace and harmony
but I wonder is this all you can bring
is this your destiny to be so mean
And It makes me mad
And It makes me sad
It makes me so angry
I have shake my fists
I can't believe The way
you all use my name in vain
It just drives me crazy
ya it's all insane
to think you care that much
to make me all your blame
Why can't you all see
and why should I care when you all dare
to choose the path you take
that causes all of this heartache and despair
Look at all the death and destruction the world round
ya I might of had to turn my back on you
because I can't bear to watch all you cry out
When it's you who needs to be better than all of this
so no you can't depend on me
to fix all of this
you got to learn to right all your wrongs
but you better hurry up
you haven't long
for you see your time is almost up
So I'll leave it all up to you
just to see what you can do
I'm sorry son that you fucked it up
it might be too late to fix what's gone
Will this be the legacy that you'll leave
all your children seeded in their graves
