Lost

a strange sensation
ran through me
I was at the station
I was knocked out
he had me beat

lost in my words
I tried to explain
wasn't it a mistake
I tried to plead

he wouldn't give in
didn't he love me
we had something goin'
goin' down well

but he was leaving
goin' out of town
throwin' my life to pieces
leavin' me hell

lost in my words
I felt the hurt
comin' on strong
my screams rang out

almost blew my mind
for all the lies
wasted my life
caught my breath

he finally went to
that pretty girl an' all
the one he loved best
leavin' me here

sheddin' no tears
my love was dying
the ashes were blown away
words...came back to me again

Words

 

words

 

have many ways

 

of

 

showin' how they feel

 

once spoken they're not shy of bein' rude

 

or

 

just a lie

 

 

but somewhere along the line

 

they're not satisfied with our yesterday

 

they speak to me about you words I allready knew

 

 

bein' our yesterdays news

 

an'

 

I don't mind your lies

 

'cause

 

nowadays it's all we have, they have no place to hide

 

but

 

when I speak it's for real

 

 

my words show how I feel, no second guesses there

 

 

an'

 

I share them with you

 

you may not like it  but I share with you

 

 

 

the

 

 

truth

 

 

 

(c)  JR.  2017

it never is

it never is easy

 

when a storm comes down

 

with its rain

 

it never is

 

 

never is easy

 

fightin' a fire with its pain

 

and

 

I know I'm goin' to miss you

 

hangin' on somewhere in my mind

 

tellin' me your lies where my truth

 

ev'ry time

 

 

it never is easy

 

changin' ways you once knew

 

it never is
