It's a cold world with so many people who don't seem to care about anything. It's a cold world with so many people who are waiting like a scorpion to sting.

Some people don't give a ****, are you one of them too?! I don't know if you care about me, but I give a **** about you!

It's a cold world, but there are still people who would want to believe in you. It's a cold world, but there are still people who would want to stay close and be true.

Some people don't give a ****, are you one of them too! I don't know if you care about me, but I give a **** about you!

Some people don't wanna help, some give a penny or two. I don't know if you care about me, but I give my all to you! I give my all to you!!!

what's going on in that beautiful mind?
cause all of me loves all of you
loves your curves and all your edges
I need someone to know
someone to heal
someone to have, just to know how it feels
let me show you love
I need somebody to who can love me
at my worst
no, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
cause, it's only you, nobody new
I'd climb every mountain
and swim every ocean
just to be with you
you were a thief, you stole my heart
I met you in the dark, you lit me up
we danced the night away
I knew I loved you then, but you'd never know
cause, honey, your soul could never grow old
it's evergreen
baby, your smile's forever in my mind
and memory
I'm thinking about how people
fall in love in mysterious ways
[verse]
I sit by the window
play my guitar,
and think of you.
I wonder where you are,
Is it raining there too?

[chorus]
Sometimes it rains
Sometimes it pours
Sometimes the sad songs
just can't help anymore,
and my eyes fill with raindrops of you.

[verse2]
I stare back out the window
write a line or two.
If I could get this song on the radio,
Maybe you'd hear it too.

[bridge]

[chorus]
Sometimes it rains
Sometimes it pours
Sometimes the sad songs
just can't help anymore,
and my eyes fill with raindrops of you.

[guitar solo]

Yeah

[outro]
If I could get this song on the radio,
Maybe you'd hear it too.

Maybe you could hear it.

Maybe you could hear it,
Hear it through the rain.
I believe Baby!
Because Sometimes it Rains
but, sometimes,
sometimes
Sometimes the sun shines too.

[slow fade]
yes it does

Damocles May 13
Collapse in me like a calamity
We break bones like friends break bread
Suitable to eat all the fiction we leave
Leave no crumbs upon the porcelain
Dripping from the maw,
It’s a gathered storm we twist in the rain
Cyclic sick, motion parody
Parroting in the air we see in our periphery.

An animal touch
Gnawing through the skin
Gnashing at the veins
Tapping ancient knowledge from within
Tasting the copper essence, thicker than buttermilk
Oat notes inside iron smell,
Rust color dyed under the fingernails.
This is what I meant when I said
I want to get inside you.

Collapse in me like a black hole
Supernova laser beams bouncing through the temples
Lobotomize consciousness in conscience bliss
Constant this, a battle waged with no winners
If I take it, what would you give
And if I give what would you take?
Would the odds meet even?
Would the world cease its grievance?
Coastal in the irony
Serfs off the shore.
Surfs up collected Moores
Served up in pallid doors
Serve up to pad the wallets, sure.
I’m not immune to your history,
Hang me for my skin tone and pedigree
Take my culture and use that pasta to bury me.

Infinite waters,
Drain my colors
Paint me a new face,
Bring me to Zion
Let me see my creations
Batter me in heinous
Fry me with jealousy
Greed bleeds in green envious eyes
And I doubt you realize…
I only wanted to love the best in you.

Collapse in me like a crumpled page
Wrinkled and discarded
Rage billowed in dried ink and crude letters
Words cursed from the spittle of angered throats
Vibrating viral vehemence through the echoes of a time
No longer sated in the universes we’ve depleted
In still-born births upon our rotted stage
We play alone.

Collapse in me!
This is a piece where i'm looking in and having a battle with self, about how I create and how I wish to create going forward.
Pink and round and new,
newborn baby smooth.
Cross my hands it’s true
no more saving you

this is a prayer called Clonidine.
It is the best song I will sing.
Baby it ain’t no thing it’s just
a prayer called Clonidine.


See the red sun before the gale,
feel the wind that shreds the sail.
Waves they crash upon the sand,
over and over, in Neverland.

This is a prayer called Clonidine.
The last song that I will sing.
Baby it ain’t no thing it’s just
a prayer called Clonidine.

Let Clonidine lay me down,
I don’t wanna hear another sound.
Eyes rolled back heaven’s been found.

No longer pain, just ecstasy.
Endless ocean calm and free,
no longer swimming against the sea.

This is a prayer called Clonidine.
The last song that I will sing.
Baby it ain’t no thing it’s just
a prayer called Clonidine.

Let Clonidine lay me down,
I don’t wanna hear a sound.
Eyes rolled back heaven’s been found.

No morning follows these lullabies,
no birds will sing, no sun will rise.
Just silence now, a velvet shroud—
all tucked in, heads are bowed.

Jolly green shuttles in my hand,
prepped for launch, no place to land.
Cross my hands, calm and still—
This is a prayer called Ativan.
It’s the last thing I can stand.

Let Ativan lay me down.
I don’t wanna hear another sound
Eyes rolled back heaven’s been found.

A lunar landing, breathless, cold.
The stars are near, heartbeat slows.
Darkness deeper than the chill—
A cosmic flight in a little pill.

This is a prayer called Ativan,
medicine so profound
let Ativan lay me down,
I don’t wanna hear a sound.

no more pain, just ecstasy.
A world away, peaceful and free,
no longer fighting against me.

This is my prayer, my last will
a sweet embrace in a little pill.
Good drugs lay me down,
I don’t wanna hear a sound.

This is a prayer this is a prayer this is a prayer…
May 2025 song
Damocles May 6
I stand on the precipice
Of all that was and dared to exist
In the palm of fate crushed into dust
Made into flakes
As we chase our fates
Into the wind so autumnal.


The days bleed
With a light ever fading
Sun eaters over the horizon,
Love for the last time as time is fleeting.

I walk in a sea of flames
Burning my eyes,
Hoping I can catch a nocturne
Over the dead sky,
Lamenting everything you’ve said.

No, go away from me, far away.

The days bleed
With a light ever fading
Sun eaters over the horizon,
Love for the last time as time is fleeting.

An accursed thing,
****** to walk these hallowed arboreal halls
Dead oaks grasping like withered umbilical cords
To pull me in as vultures watch over me
If they could, they would lick their carnivorous tongues
To devour me under the weight of this
In a sea of flames.

The days bleed
With a light ever fading
Sun eaters over the horizon,
Love for the last time as time is fleeting.

The Days bleed.
Light fades.
Dead gods.
Blind faith.
Ill fate.
Betrayed.

The days bleed
With a light ever fading
Sun eaters over the horizon,
Love for the last time as time is fleeting.
written as a song for a little thing I'm putting together, its a fun little project. anyway tell me what you think?
How Much I Love You

Verse 1:

You don't need me to
Tell you, even though I always do
How much I love you
How much I love you
How much I love you
You brought the sun in the light of your eyes
Though they always looked like crescent moonrise
And time and timelessness became such tangible things
In your being
In your being
In your being

Chorus:

Darling, you said you knew exactly
How much I love you
How much I love you
How much I love you
Well I can also feel
How much you love me
How much you love me

Verse 2:

Is it cliche to say that this is meant to be?
But how else can I perfectly explain
Everything
Everything
Everything
I'm feeling

Bridge:

So perfectly sweet basking in your being
So perfectly dreamy basking in your being

Chorus:

Darling, you said you knew exactly
How much I love you
How much I love you
How much I love you
Well I can also feel
How much you love me
How much you love me

CODA:

Even though you don't know about forever
But time has proven, I'll always be there
Letting you feel
How much I love you
How much I love you
How much I love you
