Last night again I dreamt
of you.
the girl
With the flowers in her hair
Wrapped up in tidy tresses
stray wisps blown by the breeze
You're long and lean and limber
with curves……. Wheeeesh.
Dark eyes and drop dead smile.
You're gorgeous
I love you
Please can we have ***?

But I'm gonna have to tell you
It's something you should know
I hate them ****** flowers
They're gonna have to go

25th May 2017

Had to get back
To the pen and the pad
All this is driving me mad
Never sunk this low
Never felt this bad
I've tried washing away all these sins
I've tried burying all of these things
Feels like this room is closing in
All the memories are coming back (back)
I feel cold, alone and trapped (trapped)

Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse me, clean me out
Oh Lord, cleanse my soul
Cleanse me, cleanse me (oh yeah)

Clean me up, clear my head
Bring me to my feet again
I can't seem to walk
With all this weight
Hanging over my shoulders
Take me back
to those Glenmore Park days
Back to where and when I felt safe
There was more than enough love
And protection in the sky above

All these terrible feelings
Are like a collapsing ceiling
Wearing me down, crushing me under
If this keeps up, I'll be six feet under
Trying to dig my way out
Now I realise I need help
Now I see that I can't fight this alone
Now I need a little room to breathe
And let all of the fresh air
Clear all the black smoke in me

Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse me, clean me out
Oh Lord, cleanse my soul
Cleanse me, cleanse me (oh yeah)

Clean me up, clear my head
Bring me to my feet again
I can't seem to walk
With all this weight
Hanging over my shoulders
Take me back
to those Glenmore Park days
Back to where and when I felt safe
There was more than enough love
And protection in the sky above

They say so do you believe in angels?
Maybe there are some watching over you
Maybe there are some watching over me
But only if you have a little faith and just believe
But some people don't believe what they just can't see
I used to be a little sceptical myself
But I'm finding a little belief in spiritual help
That's why I'm asking them to

Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse my soul oh, oh
Cleanse me, clean me out
Oh Lord, cleanse my soul
Cleanse me, cleanse me (oh yeah)

Clean me up, clear my head
Bring me to my feet again
I can't seem to walk
With all this weight
Hanging over my shoulders
Take me back
to those Glenmore Park days
Back to where and when I felt safe
There was more than enough love
And protection in the sky above

you left me
like i was never
a reason to stay

the sun still rises around 5 am
the trees still sway and the wind still blows
the birds, they chirp; the dogs, they bark
the sky still blasts orange and purple rays around 6 pm

these people around me, they are still the same people that I've known

but without you in it,
it's a totally different day

Love is touching me
No
Love is touching you

Love is to be held
No
Love is to hold

Love is kissing me
No
Love is kissing you

Love is taking
No
Love is giving

Love is angry
No
Love is happy

Love needs
No
Love provides

Love waits a minute
No
Love waits an eternity

Love takes away
No
Love gives away

Love holds firm
No
Love gives way

Love argues
No
Love agrees

Love laughs at
No
Love weeps for

Love takes two
No
Love gives all to one

Love is
No
Love is
YES!

fingerprints
claw marks
bear hugs
legs wrapped around me

same, dude.
tattoos down her spine
call her riley
but she's got prettier eyes
