SMOKIN' 1

These are my stories. So long kept bottled up inside, the shame has faded away with time. Unveil the trails that darkness entails.

These were my worries. Wrapped up in a dollar bill, at the end you can smell your thrill. In time this line has altered my mind.

Breathe in the summer time. Come on now dance with me, make me feel alive. Don't let me go.

Although I knew she'll end me too I had to try some. My homeless soul has found a place to roam, I'm happy, high and numb. My heart may never be at peace and my mind may give me no release. But when I try more, the more I know she is to die for

Ease all my worries. Voices that criticize of those that never have touched the sky. It's why I fly and can't hear your cries.

Beware of the signs. She makes you feel like you've never been alive. She's wrapped around you, her smile captivates. She's a hunter that never hesitates.

Her eyes subdue you, she takes the lead. She tastes of heaven and her touch is defeat. The water is warm, yeah, but you better not swim. She turned this boy into a man, but this man's now begging.

Please, be the real one. Please, just let me dream on.

I've grown tired of my mind. I used to voice words that made a difference. Now pour temptations in my mind, just to become somewhat indifferent.

Unsociable without a cure. Read the air and just endure.

I can feel it filling up my lungs. I try to beat it, but speak in different tongues. I am changed, estranged then gone. The world has won.

Don't you ever want to change the way the world's arranged? I'm sure you do, cause I do too, but we don't want to seem strange. So your head is in the gutter while your hands reach for the sky. Believing someday you'll fly. Believing until you die. Oh, why do we still try?

Filling up my lungs. I want to scream out, lash out to that what I have become. Speak in different tongues, out of frustration, sensations of the hesitation to belong.

Filling up my lungs. Speak in different tongues. Breathing in the air that aims to tear and pollute me.

My heart is pounding, what I saw it was astounding. I shake I tremble I fall. Whatever I thought were the limits of the world, I no more can think that at all. Did you see what I'd seen, or was it just for me alone?

I sat in my room. I swallowed at noon a substance that suddenly hurled me off this world.

Floating aimlessly around on a sea of sound, the coast is not to be found. I see a sign that reads what I feared. My train of thought was lost, the ship back to earth has sailed.

My heart is pounding, what I see it is astounding. I shake I tremble I fall. Whatever I thought were the limits of the world, I no more can think that at all with what I saw.

Fly, never come down. Light, no worries no doubts. Mind, a place of my own. I want it all.

Dry, past the peak Dry, I cannot speak I have crashed and I'm burned. I have returned.

Oh God, I see that you think that you figured me out. You're gonna write it on the walls and shout it out loud. Oh my. Did you know that you'll look like a fool when all is straightened out and cool?

Goodbye, goodbye. Out of sight, out of mind. Kick out the fun and you've got me feeding all your needs. Oh, the sorrow. Goodbye, goodbye. Out of sight, out of mind. Kick out the fun and I'm sick of your attention greed.

I can't wait till you face reality and see what you've done. Try to make us believe that you'd come undone. I can't wait all my life to be satisfied. The one left behind is you.

You're a thief and a liar. I await your trial. Where the shakedown breaks you down. This is my desire. To see in you just a glimpse of, what I like to call, humanity.

Meanwhile everybody plays their parts in social games, you're the puppet master of all. You've got your best friends in tow. Overplayed and somehow You'll get everybody tied up in a knot.

You've got to take me through all these silent nights. How does one find the time to ruin another's life? Lie.

You see, you stole a part of me. For people like you there is no demand. I see a certain end.

I see that, you think that, You figured me out. You're gonna write it on the walls and shout it out loud. Goodbye, you're not worth my time. Goodbye. Oh, I've let you lose my way a long time ago, but that ends today.
