Through the woods, the darkest of nights. In the coldest of snow, it was only then I missed your warmth. I long for the sand. I long for your sunsets. I long for your chaos, oh how I miss it so well. You want me to declare my truths, and I want to. Nothing tastes as good, as sweet, as living honestly. I just want to go down by the shore, let the ocean water wash me pure. I want to go out to Huntington, sit by the beach, wait for sunset with you, and dream of forever. //All these whores saying they deserve more. I just want to sit by the shore, let the ocean water wash me pure. Mindless nothings mean nothing at all. You're just voices in a crowd that has no direction. How sad. I dreamt with my hi fi on high, lo fi, but it's these sounds that fight inside of my mind. Like my heart is dreaming of something yet to be. my heart cries out for you. Will you answer? My heart cries out for this world. For everyone who's known the struggle, the lack and luster. My heart cries out for her, child at sixteen, no job, nowhere to go. My heart cries out for him, with no one to lend a loving caress. But I would. I declare my truths for you. That the dishonesty just sickens me.

Button 05:27
V1: Music from a pure heart flows free, and it's spilling forth all the time from me. Everything I've done, was to come to this point. Every cut, bruise, tear and struggle was worth it. You can't erase or forget who you are, every flaw was to shape you. Perfect you. Strengthen and refine. Chorus: Oh I found that button, to fix all my problems. / oh wouldn't it be wonderful? I had it all along. made me right , made me sleep at night. Found that button, to fix all my problems. Even if I'd hit reset, I would've done it all over again. V2: Destined for the success whether I accepted it, or not. / I'm always advancing towards my target. It was inevitable, inescapable, this is who I am. My directive, get what I want, what I crave, just who I am babe. V3: I used to say I don't want to live in fear. but how can i move on? Run forward my love, never look back again. You wished, You pushed. You worked for it. Chorus.

Sweet, like sugar. My sunset in my eyes, light up like vegas every time./ You're my baby. Be my baby, forever more! Ooh, you something else. Ooh ooh ooh, want you all to myself. Don't like me calling you it. You want to blame somebody, Blame your mama and daddy. don't blame me, not fault ain't my fault you so sexy, na na na na (X2).babe/just I want you all the time, every day and night (X2) ain't my fault you so sexy, na na na na (X2).You're irresistable. Delectable. Want every single day and night. Want you all the time. As far as I'm concerned. You're mine, till the end of time. You ain't got no objections, object of my affections.

"Late bloom" set to "A1" in magix. I'm changing, not in the way I had hoped. Not as quick as I wanted to. Do you know what it's like to start over at 25? I'm wrought with sadness the world has passed me by, but grateful I'm still alive. Hook:I'm scared of the unknown, just like you, stuck awake at night wondering . I'm scared I won't make it now, that I don't have enough. Chorus: Don't be afraid child, dry your tears and keep going (spoken). The older I get, the more I see there was nothing wrong with me. I had everything I needed to succeed. The latest bloom, the sweetest scent, the boldest of color, strongest of stem, the latest bloom. The Latest bloom. Worth the wait. I can't keep cutting my wounds open just to please others. / But I'm still breathing, I didn't learn how to give up on myself. / I still see that light, like when I was a child. It didn't leave me.
6.
I just want to feel alive. It's a one track mind. It's a good heart. It's a train of thought./ Something that can't be bought, but the illusion can. But it never lasts. Hook Guide me back to safety, like a ship in the storm. Let your star shine bright. Every single night. Chorus The non conformity, to a herd like mentality.The non conformity, the solidarity. Let's set eachother free. The non conformity, revolting against a totalitarian society. The solidarity, let yourself be free. Depression and rage. an array of pills to keep you in blissful state. To keep you from being mentally awake. Line 'em up for the slaughter. Every mother son, father and daughter./ Stripped you of your dignity for 1.99, and your lover for half price. A revolution, against a system of false devotion. Devote to love./
7.
V1: Oh father, I am ready/ take me into your light. This world has nothing left for me / protect my heart from the corruption, i won't invite. Chorus: I am yours, one and only, first promise to you above all. / I am your child of light, cradled in your arms, always. I am yours, forever more. V2: When I think I have nothing more to give you refresh me. / You fill me with hope and love, When I thought I was done, reborn, renewed, refreshed once again/ Now I am spilling forth from your power. They tried and failed to make me devote myself to them.

All you shootin' something into your veins, but it's not even top ten compared my drug of choice. I do it every day, every moment, every second. It's endless, because it's all around me. Smell the night and western wind, the sun's setting, I see my own heaven. Chorus Get stoned, get drunk, Gulp it down, breathe it in, get high on life. No you don't need to smoke it, don't need to drink it, don't need to shoot up, Just breathe in./Don't know what I mean? Just breathe it in./ It don't cost a thing. Just breathe it in.The beauty of everything. It's all you'll ever need. The good and even the bad, the worst and best you ever had. There's a beauty to all of it, just breathe it in. V2:You won't need rehab, side effects, you'll just be stuck with a honey glow, wherever you go. Dependency is guaranteed. That's how it was designed, to set you free. The euphoria is infectious, to which there is no cure, that's for sure.Hook. Chorus. A sunset like a sea of flames, you'll see this world the way I do. /Get high on the beauty of everything. It don't cost a thing. Just breathe it in. It's all you'll ever need.
9.
Love my flaws, my stitches, rhyming along with my glitches. I've lived long enough to see myself laugh at my mistakes of yesteryear. Hook:I'm feeling brand new, again. Like a spring breeze. Chorus: Every triumph, a revelation, an inner celebration,/ you have me joyous, in splendor, in fervor. Forever. Declared the victor, as I'm left standing, I see. I'm the lucky one, I'm the lucky one. I'll count my blessings, with greater meaning. / Blessed to realize, I'm still living, still breathing. Dried my tears of self pity and regret,

Let the devil snicker in his evil way. We'll get him, another day. Let me fly with you. Dance upon these clouds. Dance in the sunset. Cause it's unreal. The way you make me feel. Oh lord know it's not romantic, just like being around eachother. Cause the magic really happens. Emblazoned on our hearts, our shared love of the same thing. Walking into the light, imputable. Forgive me, fell in love with an angle. Undeniable. Our connection together. We're both dreaming freely in this same atmosphere, unreal. Ethereal. You're pure light, you're pure joy. You're everything that's made me stronger, in his image, together. We're gonna light up the night, we're going make it right. Cause it's unreal, the way you make me feel.

Hook: I'm not broken or worthelss, I just need some help. Help me pick up my broken pieces of who I am, help me become whole again. head in your hands, cause you don't understand, why you feel this way. It's alright baby, you can't help it.

Confidence 04:29
v1:baby what pretty eyes and lips, what sensual way you pop those hips.you're something different, something, something else. What fool would it be, to look and, not see. What kind of fool would it be, to want anything else. Pop them hips, smack those lips. Make me thirsty. Make me sweat. Make me want touch, too much. Hook:looking in a mirror, repairing. I enjoy breaking you to make you stronger. Making you the best. cause I love what I see, looking back at me. and now I'm set free. Physical and mental, I'm feeling fufilled, and in complete control,You confuse with arrogance, I'm getting back my confidence. v2:I think it's sexy. More than physical, intelligent. So much fun to be had.I think it's sexy, stripped down to the bones and flesh. Started again. These boys got barely four cylinders, you rocking an X-15 in them jeans. Hypersonic, you got me mach 6, that thrust. So sexy, can't get enough. I think it's sexy, when you looking like that up at me. I think it's sexy, how those jeans, the shape, that firm? oh yeah. More than physical. Rapidly intelligent so I'm told, a young body with a spirit that's old. Blessed to see the world a different way. Blessed to have been able to pick up the pieces, and start again. To make myself whole, without need nor want. Physical and mental, don't you want me? Did I mention I'm loyal, unconditionally. to the end, you and me, I love the way I love when I love myself. I love the way I love when I'm ignoring the world, captivated in your eyes.

Jump 03:44
V1: This life is a stage, my best performance? not always. I've tasted the sweet, the sour. The soft luxury, the stabbing and clawing at my flesh. Hook: I have to change myself, once again. But I remember. My sweetness doesn't fade. I'm still uniquely me under it all, always. If you think you won, you only stunned me for a moment. When I get back up, you better start running while you can. Chorus: Sooner or later, you have to jump. Nothing will change if you don't. Just jump. I'm scared. Just close your eyes. Letting go, into the unknown. You have to jump, but I'm with you always. V2: You'll never know if you don't, baby trust me, jump. Not suicidal, my ambition taking hold. Still scared, you still have to jump. Hook. Chorus. I know it doesn't make sense, just trust in yourself. You have everything you've ever needed.

Agape 04:56
Oh my sweet love, is this what the hallways of heaven feel like? Such sweet echo. My heart is with you, always, my heart didn't leave your side. Why me? I ask. Hook: Thought I was day dreaming, but couldn't explain these feelings. "Why me?", I asked. You answered, "Why not?". Chorus: Won't you dance in the light with me? I'm your sweet sweet babe, sweet sweet agape. Oh yahweh, loving that it doesn't end or fade. sweet sweet Agape. Sweet sweet sweet. Agape. Every little thing I've ever wanted to know, in one embrace. I can feel the light touching my face. Always. "Why me?", I ask. Your smile told me everything I wanted to know.
17.
I'm bleeding withering once again, said I was so tough, but my heart has fallen feint. I'm working myself up, I'm just wishing I was in your arms. The sweetest embrace, your breath against my face. I crave you like nothing else, your light blinding my eyes. Hook: Come on haters, come on lovers. Give me your best. CHORUS: I get too serious, need to calm down. My happy place. That mindset. I'm dreaming of LA. I'm dreaming of you and me, dreams that won't ever fade. You are my heaven, the light always in my eyes. Dreaming of LA, dreams that won't ever fade. V2:I'm breathless, you got me going all night sweetness. You got me face to face, and I like your weight against me. I love the thought of being with you again. The fantasy, I won't let go of. All these little dramas, trials and tribulations. Just wishing I had a sweet slice of your loving again. Chorus. V3:I'm wanting us top down, fifth gear, by the coast, ocean spray against us I remember mesmerized by the scent. Cologne, mint gum, fresh dress shirt, new car, warm spring wind, blossoms sex and sweat. My heaven, my sweet ultimate safe haven. Got me dreaming back when it was just you and me, in La. Hook. Chorus.

He drives me crazy, right up the damn wall. Shift quick, don't hesitate or I'll stall. Well aren't you the know it all. That's okay, that's why I want you, come warm me up. Hook: You're crazy, you're alright. Got me grinding for you, on the top of my car, in the middle of the night. Chorus: Can you handle my speed? My turns? My 12 cylinders yearns. Don't pop my clutch. Lambo nor Ferrari, got nothin' on me. Work me to my limit, push it, Love it. and don't pop my clutch. You got that special touch. Make me rev, to my limit, and I love it. Eat your heart out Andretti I know you won't pop my clutch. It's sweeter than sugar, brighter than the sun. Painting like picasso, your words messing me up. You don't hold me back, you make me stronger so it seems. But I want more. Drunk drinkin on your masterpiece. Cause you got me 8k rpm. You got me hot, 1,000 horsepower under you baby. Don't pop, pop my clutch. Can't get enough, touch and treat me right. Get me going all night, don't stop, don't pop my clutch.
19.
LEVEL UP 03:23
V1: It can be done, it won't be easy. Level up. every molicule of you. Sometimes you have to dig deeper, the blood and scars to keep working even when there's nothing. Hook:The highest echelon, what you and I will achieve. Bow to the all knowing. Bow down to my pure loving. Better level up. can't afford to wait. The world's changing every second, Better level up Ain't gonna watch the world go by. Don't have a choice. Do or die. Better level up. Can't be afraid of what if, nor what people would think. I'm leveling up. I'll tell you what it means. To work with the cuts in your hand. Fight uphill against the wind, ice cold rain. Level up. Everyone tells you you're insane. But you can't listen. You have to keep going. Level up. Their lies, a red herring. Why I made success, love, and knowledge my religion. Bow to the all knowing. Bow down to my pure loving. The highest echelon, what you and I will achieve. Do it or don't, doesn't matter. Our success is reliant only upon ourselves. Not my fault if you can't reach, if you had just given a bit more. Leveling up. Builds character. makes who you are. Makes you sure you can survive anything. Don't tell me you can't level up. I did it, with nothing, you got hell more than I did. So use it.

about

Another culmination of my life to this point. Thoughts flying, synapses rapidly firing, oxytocin like a waving knocking you down, pulling you out to it's endless seas. Stolen from another dimension, in their year 1981.
