bookmark_borderHeart’s Been Cubed

LYRICS
They say his heart cubed that day
From that day forever clued
Heart’s been cubed (Heart³)
Forever clued

He never would behave that way
Once his heart grew that day
From that day forever clued
Heart’s been cubed
Forever clued

Feel the hate just fade away
(Hate dissipate)
Now that your love made way
Heart’s been cubed
Forever clued

“And what happened then? Well, in Whoville they say that the Grinch’s small heart grew three sizes that day. And then the true meaning of Christmas came though, and the Grinch found the strength of ten Grinches plus two.”

Chords: Dm F7(13) / F C Dm; 123 BPM

LYRICS
Do you feel that something’s got a grip
On your heart the tug thug mugs a rip
No matter how hard you try to pry
Stuck in time feeling by and by (bye n’ bye)
Eventually you will see
You’ll see

Before long you’ll be free you’ll see
Right the wrong, justify till you’ll be
The harder you apply try and try
The you’ll gain wing to fly
Eventually you will see
You’ll see

LYRICS
I see you want to play with fire
Brought the matches to aspire
Spark into dark ignite
Add light for insight
Enlighten some
And sum
Then some sum

Brought the matches
2 of a kind
You brought to mind
Could be 3
I can see
4 maybe more
Batches of matches
Add the tip to friction
In a blip/flip ignition
Light then sum
Light and the some
Enlighten some
Elightensum

bookmark_borderStill, I’m Thinking….

LYRICS
Flash of a wink
Twinkle of an I
Too much think sink
Blink and bye-bye
Ship adrift at see
Can’t “be” through the fog
Trip from destiny
To clear the clog
Dog days of summer
In the Fall of life
Too nigh is slumber
This life is rife
Last that I checked
I’m not dead yet
Before the memory’s wrecked
Going to think all I can get
Flash of a wink
Going to think
Twinkle of an I
Going to think
Until the I’s rise

LYRICS
How come?
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum
Were sitting on a fence
Tweedle Dee fell off… hence
Dumb was founded
Dumbfounded abounded
It seems to me
Tweedle Dee’s destiny — one with Humpty Dumpty

All the King’s horses
And all the King’s men
All the King’s horses
Know where men have been
All the King’s horses
And all the King’s men
No never put together again
No never put together
No matter the “whether”
… never
Free dumb’s brain forever restrained
Banned from this land wrought with free thought

I’m able to manage
Day dreamage
With mild reality seepage
The drip, drop, drip
Of the tick, tock, tick
The scene’s pulling apart at the seems
Now, it all depends on the whether
Pound of brick…
Or pound of feather
The foul little calling
The sky is falling

The key fits in the keyhole

LYRICS
What do you mean “we don’t have much time”?
The last thing she said to me is
“We don’t have much time”
When it comes to getting the message out
Don’t know how loud I can shout!
Wipe the grime from my voice
“We don’t have much time!”
But we’ve got choice
Adapt or be inept
In an adapt
In and adapt
Fast track
Be adapted to embedded?
Don’t let me… down
Don’t let me 6 feet down
You got me
Stymied
Stymie me’d

I’m dying to meet you
Every day I’m on my way
Dying to meet you
Every day from babe to grave
Dying to meet you
Every day one less saved
One day closer to the grave
Dying to meet you
Good, God!
I’m not dead yet
With all due respect
Please forget

I can’t wait ’til a later date
Dying to meet you
And make do
With the love
Waiting to meet you

How do you deem a race
Or is it faith based?
Erase erroneous
Us versus Them
From our memory banks… thanks!

No time to hem

No, not that much time at all
Not that much time at all for all

How do you deem a race

Not that much time at all for all

LYRICS
No deposit. No return.
Will the naive burn
If ignorance is bliss
What happens after this?
For every action’s re-action
Are we talking object in motion?
The gravity of naivety
Argh! It’s killing me
(PS no B.S… you, too)

No deposit. No return.
Will the naive ever learn
There’s no bliss in ignorance
If ignorance is bliss…
What do you call this?

There ain’t no slowing down
My brain’s on the train
Blowin’ this bliss town
Wave bye-bye by-and-by
Ain’t tellin’ no lie
Wave bye-bye by-and-by
