Another Alibi

Posted on 06.21.25 under Uncategorized

Put the down payment on a dream
signed the lease but it’s not what it seems
Four walls, a roof one key to hide
The boast of being satisfied

Your ghost rides shotgun and whispers pretty lies
Every mile I hear another alibi
They echo in my mind and then rewind
Looping pain I can’t seem to leave behind

Spirits whispering through the breeze

I bought a mortgage on my soul
Wrote a check that you stole
Signed with red ink that never dries
Can’t stop the rage shooting from my eyes

Your ghost rides shotgun and whispers pretty lies
Every mile I hear another alibi
They echo in my mind and then rewind
Looping pain I can’t seem to leave behind

Dream on a Fantasy

Posted on 03.15.25 under Uncategorized

I’ll keep trying
Please tell me it wasn’t in vain
To trade your silks for cellophane
Drinking beer instead champagne
How could we think that it was the same

Built a dream on a fantasy
Watched it burn right in front of me
Sad

We’re screaming through the night, but
No one hears
Running from the shadows
Of our fears
Chasing memories as they
Slip away
Fading in to the light
At the break of day

Built your house on sand with cards
Defiled her beauty with your scars
You cheat the game then place your bet
Break your vows and ignore your debts

Built a dream on a fantasy
Watched it burn right in front of me
Sad

We’re screaming through the night, but
No one hears
Running from the shadows
Of our fears
Chasing memories as they
Slip away
Fading in to the light
At the break of day

We that thought we could walk away
But we got lost and led astray
Trade your truths for embezzled hope
Compromise is a slippery slope

Built a dream on a fantasy
Watched it burn right in front of me
Take me home

We’re screaming through the night, but
No one hears
Running from the shadows
Of our fears
Chasing memories as they
Slip away
Fading in to the light
At the break of day

Hurts So Much

Posted on 02.02.25 under Uncategorized

Everything sad

There are pieces of me
I left behind
thrown away when
I changed my reckless mind

A veil of sorrow
Lies on my dusty floor
Wrapped around your memories
I can’t ignore

Hurts so much I cannot feel the pain
Hurts so much put acid in my veins
Please tell me if it ever ends
In the space where ghost and lover blend

Forever

Half-heard whispers
Float in my empty room
Falling softly
In the sullen gloom

Shattered mirrors reflect
my fractured face
A splintered image
That can’t I can’t erase


Echoes of a dream
we threw away
Lost in the winds
of yesterday

Fighting chaos
In my broken mind
Through the wasteland
I wander, blind

Hurts so much I cannot feel the pain
Hurts so much I can’t explain
Hurts so much I cannot feel a thing
Hurts so much I’m numb to what it brings

Forever
