treadmill of mistakes

Walking in quicksand 

In a middle of snow storm

Packing it down 

Running in place

On this treadmill of mistakes

Coming in last 

This human race 

Connecting to what doesn't exist 

Love extinction 

The dripping driving me insane 

Running in quicksand

Feeling it pulling me down

Like s runaway freight train

Ripping through this valley

Called I don't care 

How is that for irony of mistakes

Packing in down

Running in place

On a treadmill

Coming in last

In a crazy maraphon

This humanrace

Connecting to what doesn't exist

Running in place

On a treadmill

Coming in last

In a crazy marathon

This human race

Connecting to what doesn't exist 

Water dripping 

Driving me insane

Blemished by Reality

stories differ

Inhibitor of gloom

Just walk through 

Stop staring at the door

It does not matter

Just walk through

One door closes

The exit sign comes on

Just another hole  in a wall

Walk through and life changes

The prequel to yesterday

One way doors are like that 

Another obstacle in the way

Deceitful omission again

The silence that kills

On the other side

Colors looks the same

Rain still falls 

The same songs play

Just can't go back

Letting yourself down

Can't go back

Blemished by reality 

Devils Tear Drops

Devils tear drop

Came with the dawn

As all the angels turned

Turned their back on me

Looking for the real thing

That is all we strive for

As time runs out

Swimming against a tide

As the dust settles on the day

 Doubt playing its game

Tears Taste is salty

Even through this  ice fog

A fog that distorts illusions

Smiles that look like a  frown 

A child's laugh sounding like a cry

A Frozen kiss feels like the sun

Leaving an imprint

Etched in time

Some things even though dead

Are immortal in memories 

Devils tear drops

Burn the ground

Seeping out of natures pores 

 like yesterday's memories

timeless bay

A kind heart

Defining all that is new

Their soul free of mean

Forgiveness benign  

The colors one projects

Dodging tossed rocks

The dance of spite

The aura of a clean soul

Taking all the insults

Smiling back in kind

Observer of the decline 

The color of life inspiring 

Mysticism of masterful design 

Last of these chilly days 

Forgiveness of a Vengeful god

Feeling the fire for eternity 

The intense between clear and blue

Engagingly disheartening 

Watching the sky till the sun comes 

Peaceful, restful and beautiful

Defining what is new

In a line of firsts 

Surrounded by good people

Lost at timeless bay

The noise of the world is hushed

The noise of the world 

The noise is hushed 

Where the scared linger

Clichés to substantiate

Music we don't remember 

It pounds all the same

Echoing hard in my brain

The sound of lights

Burning an intensity insane

Your shadow standing there

An outline in the darkness 

Following the wind

Chasing clouds in thin air

The noise of the world is hushed

Invited to an after party

Backstage to a band 

Whose days are long gone

Reliving memories that are happier

Second time around

Running in wide open fields

Squeezed between limping buildings

Chasing ghost memories

Ringing in my ears 

The words I will be fine

In key and in tune

You said ouch

You walked on my soul

Crushing me on every step

It was not enough

I will be fine in time

Looking back on those words

It was not enough

When you cry at hello

Those words were so long ago

I will be fine

In key and in tune

But never on time 

stone heart

Vows of a stone heart

Eyes glazed over

Staring into empty space

Lies never worth it

Shallow grave of intent 

Poignant disposition 

Soke fine must be paid

Have you had any word

I have not heard

Hope you will be fine

Survive this time

Longing for the sea breeze

Feelings its touch

Sound of the tide  

Staring at empty space

No hospital can fix these wounds

Running with no place in mind

Lies are never worth it

Even the ones we tell ourselves

Staring at empty space

Vows of the stone heart

Heavy Price

Heaviest price

Paid by the ones we cherish

Fools believe otherwise

A fine edge

Honed by sand

In the shadows

Words no longer have meaning

As drums beat in hast

There is always choice

The gift of scars

Even of the heart

Seeking Justice

Tongue of riddles

Oracle of past tense

Fools believe otherwise

Sisterhood of lies

Balanced by needs

In the shadows

To peer into this heart

See what it holds

A gift to behold 

The blessings of mistakes
Paid by those cherished
A heavy price
