I AM

I am

I am
Because I am
Because YOU said I wasn't
Because YOU said I couldn't -
be he who stands like

I do
Because I do
Because I can
Because I love to
and not because YOU told me to

I love
Because I love
Because I care
Because I can't bare
to hate when I obviously care
enough to smile when I receive a frown

I am
Because I love
Because I do
I truly do

SCARS OF RED

scars of red
and bruises of blue
everything that i dreaded
had finally come true
your smile had long fated
and to him your heart already flew

painted in red
and spread over the front lawn
your blood and mines bedded
In my memories and on the snow
whitened the lies angers and fears
and put a fitting end to our dreams
our love, laughs and tears
of joy, sadness and all
that we took our time and built through the fall

scars are red and bruises are blue
this night will forever be for me and you

BY THE IDEAS

By the ideas of one man
i was built so now i stand
i live so that one day men
like you and me can understand
can see so they can believe
that is not just as to relieve
our burdens on others but go to the length
of putting together all of our strength
to build, and to rebuild
through heavy shadows of the past
and make a world that shall last
and be idle to our children and grand children's children

by the idea of one man
just like any other man
I live to be strong
strong enough to let burn
the passion in my heart that can't stop to yearn
for a world where i can stand
and scream from atop a mountain
we are strong and strong we stand

DREAM WITH ME

If i had one dream
it would be to dream
to fall in the deepest slumber
to be swept away and no longer
be trapped in in these cages that we've built
with overflowing feelings of guilt
shame and misfortune
of our souls once tuned
through the rhythms of every heart beat

If i had a dream
It would be to dream
once more stroll down the streams
have visions of our passion that burns
brightening up the darkest nights
and warming up the coldest hearts
a flash of light and a spot of gold
our love could have never been sold

If i had one night
i would lay down and dream
Dream and erase all the films
tapes and DVDs filled with such words
like mind your business and go to hell
to be jealous is just a spell
a pain of a curse that scars deep
and tear through hearts that bleed
that ache and shiver and weep
tears of a wish to forever sleep

to lay down and dream
so lay down and dream
Dream with me

TIME FLIES

Time flies and seasons pass
But the damn scars of your words seem to last
Forever in a heart that can't ever relax
Neither dreams nor rest can relieve
This soul that has seized to believe
There is anything in your heart but you
And all sweet words you once spoke were ever true

Time flies, many suns have set
My eyes are on you but i will not expect
Anything better nor anything less
From people like you believe they are blessed
When i can truly see but a curse
Now that I've stopped being obsessed
Over your cute acts and off white doves
For nothing can substitute for love

Time flies and i have learned
The lines between love and hate are thin
As the ice cold hearts wearing warm smiles
That i fell for and have walked miles
To learn ,to love and to adore
After I've walked so much more
But for now time flies
Time flies and I live... I learn.. I love

I HAD A DREAM

I had a dream
and in that dream you died
I killed you and then lied
to the world that just cried and cried
because they found your corpse torn and scarred
surrounded by chains and bloody knives
was my masterful work of art
surrounded by four wall painted red
your blood and screams
could still be seen and heard
days months and years even after you're dead

I had a dream
just like this moment
you stood there and threw insults so violent
with no one around in this room so silent
so many ways to kill your that would be so brilliant
and the only thing that would get me found
is just how much i would be proud
to run outside screaming so loud
oh hell yes the dumb fucker finally hit the ground

I had a dream
it was so sweet
had my victory and it lasted weeks
but weeks later taken away
because karma's a bitch and there's no way
I can enjoy such sweet victory

I had a dream and it was sweet
I had a dream and yet you live
