Out Of Life

Home but away,

From the feelings that hold sway,

Over my heart, my head,

Spinning out of control.

Asleep but drowning,

Don’t know where, don’t know how,

The darkness closes in,

Your smile blurs and glows.

Is it time,

Is it really ?

To break away,

To go astray,

Find another way,

Out of this mess,

I cant take the stress,

Want to run,

Want to burn,

Want to hide,

Want to take that last ride,

Out of this town,

Out of this place,

Out of Life.

The light hurts my eyes,

The smoke covers me,

Unconscious but listening,

To the last words you said.

Playing in my head

The red deepens,

The images blur,

Cant figure out the roads,

On the last ride with you,

I’ve got to see this through.

Is it time,

Is it really ?

To break away,

To go astray,

Find another way,

Out of this mess,

I cant take the stress,

Want to run,

Want to burn,

Want to hide,

Want to take that last ride,

Out of this town,

Out of this place,

Out of Life.

In Loving Memory

[Wrote this as i was listening to Alter Bridge - In Loving Memory...]

As I look back at my life gone by,

I cant help but stop and wonder,

The number of times I’ve fallen, and fumbled,

The number of times I have erred,

The number of times I’ve felt short of breath,

Helpless,

And then I close my eyes and see your face,

Smiling down on me,

Those eyes so clear,

Those hands so tender,

That heart so full of love,

So forgiving,

I wander in the dark,

The cold biting in my face,

But I feel the warmth

From within,

The warmth of the lady I love,

The warmth of her bosom,

Pressed against my chest,

The man in me wants you,

Craves for the love,

The touch, the lips, the eyes, the softness,

I open my eyes,

The world is still dark,

The road still empty,

The world still so imperfect but perfect,

But somewhere in that darkness,

Even though every cell in my body misses you

I feel safe,

I feel loved,

I am Happy.

Want you baby,

For ever and ever,

Till the reaper comes

And sucks out the life from me…
