Sunrise - psychoanalysing yourself as you wonder about all the things you're getting wrong. Written Jan 2004


People tell me that I’m going no-where

Go and sleep now, get to bed early.

People tell me I am wasting my time

Get up early, catch the worm

And I’m finding that the laughter hurts me

Even though they don’t notice

And I’m finding that my head feels nausious

…My spelling’s atrocious.

I’m singing in the back street alleys

Someone hear me, someone need me

I’m singing in my backward places

Where everyone is moving forward

Want to sleep, want to close my eyes

Rest in my arms, rest in their arms

Want to sleep instead of all this chatter

Tell me new things, tell me something

Hang my head I’ll wait for the hope

Flowing slowly, rushing past me

Hang my head and watch the sun start to rise

Light up your life, light up her life.



Face the music - one of those wonderful schizofrienic moments that can be used to write what i thought was quite an effective poem. Written Jan 2004


Blink and face the music

The castle’s falling,

No its just a moment,

Between our strengths

You’re not listening to the screams

You’re hiding from the flames

I can hear them and

They’re only singing

I can feel the fire

Its just a warm, internal heating

I can see the stars, they’re out

They’re falling like daggers

They’re pinning my arms down

Face the music playing

In the streets

The under-beat

Its burning through the lies

The blocks are crumbling

Beneath your feet

No when we fall

We’ll be together,

So face the music.
