TBT: Lover's Urban Electric Blues (2000)

Urban blues in my basement
Electric guitar in my hand-
I've got this drug I call music
And a little sunshine in my heart

A beautiful girl once told me
I play like romance-
My sound is sweet
My rhythm is strong

And though I'm really hooked, baby
One thing gets me going-
Ain't nothing drive me crazy
Like a kiss from my lady - oh yeah

Yelling

Jumping down
Hitting the ground
Feel the darkness
In my hands
I found myself
Safe and sound
Each vibration
Ending in pain

Falling asleep
Soul in heaven
Feel the silence
Of my shivers
I yearned for
Peace and quiet
Each breath
Beginning in strain

Keep The Feeling

Trying to catch up
I was gonna say
Enough to make you want to stay
Memories move through me
It helps to keep the feeling

Trying to act grown-up
I was gonna pray
Enough to make me earn my way
Memories move outside logic
It helps to start the healing

TBT: Reasons Lost (2002)

This system
Is here for a reason
It's here to encourage treason
The norms
Only few could follow
The rules
Only few could create

This freedom
Is here for a purpose
It's here only on the surface
The feeling
Only few could believe
The boundaries
Only few could respect

Pierce A Broken Heart

Carry me in darkness, my queen
Don't tell me to let go
Understand my fear
Feel it burn, never healed
Show me how to salvage a broken spirit

Free me from emptiness, my queen
Don't tell me to fall
Protect my shame
Hear it burn, never hushed
Show me how to pierce a broken heart

Both

The pure and unbound are never alone
Never feel the sting-
Never hear sorrow-
The happy are never alone

The sick and unwound are far from home

Far from the loss-
Far from tomorrow-
The happy are far from home

TBT: Insomniacs (2000)

One's got a husband
Who left her tonight
Another can't stop swearing
There's frustration alright
One's baby sister asked
To please come visit her
He better bring his coat
Soon it will be winter

One's talking to a friend
Who think she's very nice
Another can't stop screaming
There might be a fight
One's stuck there forever
A cave she can't flee
She better bring a book
Soon it will be lonely

Covered In Innocence

I will go through love
To find the hand of darkness
Grow a beauty within
Without deadly sin
And peace that isn't boring

Is there a place for us
To make mistakes so we can grow
Or are we seduced
By the excuse
That is covered in innocence
