Don't Stop Go 2

Watching the outside grow
Pondering why it’s so
I wanna go
Smoking a cigarette
Will this really cause my death
I wanna go
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Can’t stop moving can’t be slow
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Don’t stop. Go
Watching the tube for hours
Embracing all its powers
I wanna go
Thinking ‘bout exercise
How nice my ass could rise
I wanna go
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Can’t stop moving can’t be slow
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Don’t stop. Go
I waste long days inside my head
All that I know has been said so
Screening my calls again
Even for my best friend
I wanna go
Wasting the time away
Planning another day
I wanna go
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Can’t stop moving can’t be slow
Don’t stop moving don’t stop go
Don’t stop. No

Just How It Goes

The water stopped flowing several hours ago
Small puddles still linger, a glimpse in the soul
Heal toe down the pavement trying to stomp out the woes
Nothing is right, everything’s fine, stand in line, just how it goes
Held high by potential, heaven brushing the nose
Each orifice oozing, overflowing with gold
Got destiny waiting with a foot out the door
Nothing is right, everything’s fine, stand in line, just how it goes
Fond thoughts of yesterday, a battle not yet won
Hope slowly dwindles with the passing of each sun
Time held hostage, laziness at the gun
Feet unmoving, apathy up by one
Insides screaming they say fight back and run
Nothing is right, everything’s fine, stand in line, just how it goes

Lazy Saturday

Lazy Saturday, it's my favorite day
It's the only way to spend Saturday
Other days can wait, I want Saturday
Let's stay up too late, cause it's Saturday
On the couch, watching TV
Change the channel one by one
Stop and watch an old movie
Keep on watching when it's done
Lazy Saturday, it's my favorite day
It's the only way, to spend Saturday
Other days can wait, I want Saturday
Let's stay up too late, cause it's Saturday
On the bed reading Potter
Fly through pages, it's so good
End of book, start another
Wizarding world is my hood
Lazy Saturday, it's my favorite day
It's the only way, to spend Saturday
Other days can wait, I want Saturday
Let's stay up too late, cause it's Saturday
Yeah it's Saturday
Spending time with a lover
Holding hands, kiss and stuff
Hanging out with each other
Just today is not enough
Lazy Saturday, it's my favorite day
It's the only way, to spend Saturday
Other days can wait, I want Saturday
Let's stay up too late, cause it's Saturday
Yeah it's Saturday
Oh it's Saturday

Trouble For Years

I wish I could ease your anxiety
And tell you it's gonna be fine
Your beauty can feel like an enemy
A symptom of something divine
I wish simple words could provide enough
To give you relief from your fears
Alliances grow when the times are tough
But you've felt the trouble for years
And the pain that you feel
Is entirely real
And its fury emerges you at night
And to prove that you can
Although most would have ran
You get centered and stand fast and fight
I wish simple words could provide enough
To give you relief from your fears
Alliances grow when the times are tough
But you've felt the trouble for years
'Cause the grass over there, it seems brighter
While the ground 'round your feet grows so wild
As the spaces around you grow tighter
Simply dance like you did as a child
I wish simple words could provide enough
Their power relief from your fears
Alliances grow when the times are tough
But you've felt the trouble for years

Who We Are

I didn’t even mean it,
I said, as you walked out the door, out around the corner,
I thought you’d come back home
It’s another lesson learned
Sometimes it’s hard, but
It’s those lessons that we learn that make us who we are
Remember when we dressed up and painted the town?
Way back then you told me I hated you now.
Silent screaming. Late night feeding.
It’s another lesson learned
Sometimes it’s hard, but
It’s those lessons that we learn that make us who we are
Can you recall the way we first met?
How did we feel?
Summer then fall… was it yours or mine that stopped… beating
It’s another lesson learned
Sometimes it’s hard, but
It’s those lessons that we learn that make us who we are

I Can't Complain

I can’t complain
I think in my head every night as I lay in bed
I got a roof, four wall, good food, and friends
That’ll hold me ‘til the end
So I can’t complain
I can’t complain
I feel peace and calm every time that I board that train
I get off, get lost, get turned around
Find a twenty on the ground
Cause I’m in the right mind frame
No I can’t complain
Sometimes I lament that I have to walk instead of fly
Sit around and wonder why ‘stead of stepping forth to try
Oh, it’s all the same
And then I begin to complain
But I can’t complain
I think in my head every night as I lay in bed
I got a roof, four wall, good food, and friends
That’ll hold me ‘til the end
So I can’t complain
I can’t complain
Can’t help it if the folks around me are insane
I can’t complain
What saves me is the music running through my brain
I can’t complain
There’s always hope tomorrow will not be the same
I can’t complain
And even if it is I’ll get through anyway
I can’t complain
Someone’s having a crappier day

Ms. Maura Los Angeles, California
“At first you think, ‘Oh, she's a little like Annie Lennox,’ then you think, ‘No, she's sort of a torch singer,’ then you think, ‘Whoa! That's a BIG voice -- like Etta James Big,’ and then you just stop thinking and sit back and say, ‘It's just GOOD.’”
