Runon Fragment

Phoenix

Please don't mock the words from my heart
My pen produces no real art
I write to make myself feel better
But this time I’m just under the weather

It seems the more time we have
The less we talk, the more we're mad
Yes, absence makes the heart grow fonder
But hey, we sure ain't getting younger

CHORUS:
I'm just under the weather
But I'll feel so much better
When I find
(That) I've just been blind
Then I'll be over the weather....
(break)

I'm out of the bind

I end up building your damn home
Never get to build my own
Make mine out of paper and straw
Yours without a single flaw

Never liked getting up… I’ve always been the nocturnal type
But the world shuts down… Cause everyone’s afraid of the night
It signifies the dark side… And I guess there’s a little bit of truth
Cause many who are up this late… Lack the elements of couth

It’s in this obscene hour, all year long there’s the freshest powder
The parking lot ramp’s my ten foot wave
Just follow my lines, we’re no longer slave (to this world)
It’s in this obscene hour, right in the middle of the heat of summer
You and I can taste… My concrete wave

It’s the possibilities of night… I love and marvel at most
Cause when step away from the light… The limits and boundaries are toast

Freaky Mary
Your eyes follow my every move
Bloody statue
I won’t accept your truths

CHORUS:

Your tears are not enough to scare me into believin’
I know I’m so very lost but you push me to seein’
That I’ve come across… A communion of fear occurring!
I won’t baptize myself with the guilt and deceit you’re serving

Freaky Mary, you’ll never scare me…

Freaky Mary
I’m cleanin’ up your tears
Virgin statue
Your scam was all too clear

Tears of blood, shifty eyes
An innocent look to disguise your lies
Hail Mary, full of disgrace!
I won’t allow you to decide my fate!

Let it waste away
To another place
Let it die without a trace
Let it waste away

Let it fade away
Let it burn at stake
Let it blow up in fiery flames
Let it waste away

A virus in the system… will eat us all away
Seems so harmless but it’ll take us over…
Then we’ll waste away…

Drained the system, you never listen
Mass destruction, the dead have risen
Ditched your morals and your wisdom
Feeds your selfish narcissism

Quit smilin at me
You ain’t so happy
Quit tryin to make me smile
I’ll go the opposite mile

Quit tryin to patch my wounds
They’ll heal on their own
Quit hoping if it’ll be soon
The pain will eat my soul

Don’t care for your worthless chatter
Just look around and see it don’t matter
In the grand scheme of things
We’re just two human beings
With feelings that come and go
We’re just John and Jane Doe

We always want more
Too much is never enough
So we call our wars
To show we’re rough and tough

No matter how hard we try,
It keeps falling apart
Even when we call a truce
We keep throwing our darts
Though we want to make it work,
There’s no brand new start
No matter how hard we try
It keeps falling apart

So we bring out our bombs
Then we load up our guns
Power’s our reward
So we draft our sons
But everything falls apart, the damage is done

We pick up the pieces
Of our shattered pucks
Then we blame each other
Cause we’re out of luck

No matter how hard we try
We keep falling apart
Even when we try our best
We’ve lost our hearts
There’s nothing left for us to do
But to practice this art
After all these petty wars,
We measure blood in quarts

I was standing behind you
In line at some fast food place
Went right up to ask you a question
I guess you hadn’t slept in days

Your words are like a runon fragment
Made no sense but you kept on ramblin’
I’m sure one day, I’ll understand them
But at this point in time…
They’re a runon fragment

I went to you for directions
For a good time in this town
You went off on some rant about Jesus
Yet I still had my doubts…

Some things never change
It all just stays the same
Our lives just waste away
Some things never change

Our methods are deranged
We call people strange
When they are just the same
Guess some things never change

Is it un-American to question our ways
I just don’t believe we’ll find ourselves a brighter day
I’m just being American for having something to say!
Some things never change
They will never change

Have you seen my eyes… It’s lost, it won’t disguise
The flame… That now has blown away
The forces tear me down… I’ll never wear a crown
I’m slave… I try to rise in vain

Don’t you see my face?
The life is creeping away
Don’t you see a trace?
Now it’s crept away

I try to stand my ground, it rings a perfect sound
I’ll say… You’ll never have your way
But then you pull your gun… Revenge it will be done
I’m slain but still I won’t escape

I can’t seem to get a break, how long will I have to wait
I’ve been waiting for a time to realize my dreams
But I found that I’m far too late

Count on the beach breeze
To keep me cool in the night
Sometimes the heat is too much to handle
But the beach breeze makes it alright

Cool me down
From this stifling heat
Pacific Ocean
Give me your beautiful breeze
By the waves, the rocks and the sandy beach
I long for..
The beach breeze

It’s a breath of fresh air
We all need a little space
From the tired old lost souls hangin around
All we need is a brand new wave

Panama Beach looks so nice
Sure, it looks like paradise
But still I have my jacket on
For a postcard scene... it sure is cold!
Jacksonville, Augustine
Cocoa's got a nice little scene
Keep on truckin, let's move down south
To West Palm Beach with a few less clouds!

I'll find a warmer day,
Step on the gas as I'm on my way
The miles will erase my hurt
Hurricane might bring a killer surf
Down the A1A

Turnpike's quite a boring drive
And so is south on 95
Just move on east to the shore
The stops and sights you can't ignore
Lauderdale's got a pizza place
A crowded beach, feels like Spring Break
Miami's got that Cuban spice
But the drinks come along with a heavy price!
