Abrahama Obama

November 26th, 2008

Abrahama, he can walk on air
some days he can fly
campaigning, he goes everywhere
in the sea and the sky

from the heartland to big city streets
oh the people, they cry
Abrahama save us from despair
we need change or we’ll die

Old Yellow

November 24th, 2008

approaching from lowell street
I’m easily confused
the bright lights and the traffic
are calling me to you

reaching old yellow island
should i stop or should i go
the light tells me it’s ok
but I never really know

Sad Reporter

November 24th, 2008

hey there sad reporter, nobody gives a damn
about the truth or freedom or the rights of man
people have busy lives and get news when they can
they don’t have the time to understand

money is everything
this is the song you sing
your words are beautiful but they don’t mean anything

Bigger

November 24th, 2008

let me tell you about where I’m from
you wouldn’t believe the things I’ve overcome
walk to the rhythm of a different drum
now I stand in front of you

my life is bigger than any song
you might ask me to sing or hum along
whatever I do, I make it my own
my life is bigger than any song

Work of Art

November 24th, 2008

This song is incredibly cheesy and I did not the write the lyrics. A friend did. But dammit, I like the song!

I had her
for a day
for a moment and nothing more
when I let
her know
she’s the one I was searching for

One Night Stand

November 24th, 2008

if i said I loved you
that would be a lie
i only really love myself
i don’t want to make you cry
i never really cry that much
i don’t allow myself to feel
but you can keep pretending what we had was real
all that I am good for is a one night stand
we’ll spend the night together
I’ll never talk to you again
I don’t want to raise your children
I don’t want to hold your hand
all that I am good for is a one night stand

Good Conversation

November 23rd, 2008

We had such a good conversation
then you told me about a new friend you made
He was better than all the others
even though he was half your age

You explained why you were leaving me
You didn’t love me anymore
I was growing weak in my old age
You loved the boy I was before

Boy Under The Influence

November 23rd, 2008

In the bamboo forest
beat your battle drum
Wear a mask on the back of your head
and let the tiger come

A boy under the influence of a girl who does not care

She’ll bring you down, she’ll make you weep
She’ll bring you down, she’ll make you weep

Your Love Makes Me Want To Die

November 23rd, 2008

lost in the search for a reason
running for years out of mind
in fear since the day I found you
losing all hope over time

your love makes me want to die
your love makes me want to die
your love makes me want to die
your love makes me want to die
