TALES OF A DRUNKEN SOUL

 

Behind the under-brushes of this place
Is a mass of quivering flesh
That was once my soul
My heart has risen from it's stupor
And has woken for it's reverie
I hold nothing but pieces of my soul

Consumed by beer
Burnt by the nerve racking effects
Of wasted nights at the bar
My tale is of a broken man
 Who kept his family close
And drew his drinking closer to himself

A wave of tumultuous vomit overtakes me
And I purge out years of regret
In my tale of sorrow and anguish
I release a lifetime's collection of bottled up
emotions
That has been shown the way out
From my sober self

RAIN, COFFEE AND YOU

The rain fell on my dream a fortnight

Just as I was about to kiss you

The night became cold and blue

I missed every second spent without you

I recalled how you walked into my heart with a smile

And made my night unforgettable

You made me a coffee with cream

Sprinkled with a dose of your love

NO BODY BETTER

Stop searching for apples on a mango tree
There is no such thing as the right guy
You have been denying and avoiding the truth
We can never find some one that's brand new

We found ourselves in an imperfect society
Conceived naked in thoughts and truth
Every man make mistakes and sometime lie
Just because its in his human nature

I wouldn't agree less, every woman needs a companion
Someone to share her emotion and feelings with
It takes forever trying to fetch water
With a basket from the stream

If you look between the stars
You will find there is a cloud
In a relationship there will always be misunderstanding
It should never tear us apart

We've got to be willing to make sacrifice
Accept things we can't influence
Strive to give the best we've got
Some day life will come around

Seek wisdom from the words of God
Stay true to the very end

To have a better day

You've got to dressed the bed
