Apocalypse Love Song
One day we all reap what we have sown
Hold on tight, now, don’t let go
It’s not the end of the world; it’s just the end of the world
We’ll clean our slates in the blood-red river
Judge me justly
Stand and deliver
Deliver me from what I have become
Old and cold and calloused
Blind and deaf and dumb
The longest days and nights I’ve been through
Have been the ones spent trying to forget you
Tossing, turning, conscience burning
Praying it’ll all be over soon
If we should wake to find a new age, I pray the lord your soul not to take
That He might grant another chance to repent for my mistakes
An eternity to repay…
Don’t let me let you down next time around
Don’t forget me as you’re dancing to the sound of the world we know burning down

HOPE
Keep trudging along
That wretched moss will never gather upon those stones if you keep throwing them
Glitter and gone
The pretty things, they never seem to last
But hold on, hold on
Don’t let the bastards grind you down, kid
For what it’s worth, it just ain’t worth it, keep workin
Good things come if you let go of the past and move on
Move on
Hope.
Hold on.
Hope.
Every day it’ll get a little bit easier
I know it’s tough when every single face you see is hers
But bit by bloody bit by bloody bit you will forget why you ever felt the way you did
I know it’ll take more than this song to ease your mind
I know what it’s like to just feel like giving up, sometimes
If you just open up your eyes, and take a breath

A Letter To The Editor
You’re not saying much of anything that hasn’t crossed my mind from time to time
Saying how there’s something missing, and there’s nothing upon which you can rely
Feels like every single second out of every single minute of your life
Tips the scales the wrong direction
Beaten down at every last attempt to try.
A man once told me “Son, you only get back what your heart’s willing to give
Yeah, we only get one go ‘round;
It’s the same old tale, no matter where you live
Those smiling faces on the TV screens, flash brochures and magazines will lie to you.
You’ll find out for yourself one day, I promise you, if it’s the last thing that you do”
So, why don’t you go, just get on down the road
Find your fairy tale, your paradise, your Mecca where the streets are paved with gold..
…let me know how that goes…
I hope you’re finding what you’re looking for.
If you don’t, there’s an open door waiting here back home…
I’m not saying much of anything that hasn’t crossed your mind from time to time.

THE FORGE
Trying to reach down inside of my chest
Pulling out only the bits that are best
Try to find calm, though I’m not quite so sure that I have any left.
Shiny things, pretty things, perfect and new
Fear that I squandered them all before you.
Sweet little somethings so carelessly strewn about the floor of my tomb
Sometimes the words just can’t find their way out
Somehow get lost on the way to my mouth
I hope my Benedict eyes can convince you to guide me home, when I’m in doubt
That this place is my home
Don’t mean the mortar and stone
‘Cause I damn sure know, if these wall could speak, they’d be cursing like a sailor,
Laughing like a madman, shedding a few tears
So let’s build me up fresh.
Let’s forge me a heart.
In the hole in my chest,
Take those broken bits left,
Melt them down and restart.
I am the hammer and the forge
I am something out of nothing
I am stronger
I am better than before
Let’s build me up fresh
Let’s forge me a heart
Lay regrets down to rest
Lay your head on my chest
It’s not mine, now, it’s ours…
