Not Enough

Pick apart, the pieces of your heart
And let me peer inside
Let me in
Where only your thoughts have been
Let me occupy your mind
As you do mine...

Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect..
And you can't live like this

You have lost (too much love)
To fear, doubt and distrust (its not enough)
You just threw away the key (to your heart)
You don't get burned (cause nothing gets through)
It makes it easier (easier on you)
But that much more difficult for me
To make you see..

Love ain't fair, so there you are, my love..

Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
And you, you can't live like this
Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
And you, you can't live like this
Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
You can't live like this

Love ain't safe
You won't get hurt
If you stay chaste
So you can wait
But I don't wanna waste
My love

Sheep

Forgive my morning coffee rant but I hate shit like this... Life feeds on life, PERIOD. But I suppose circulating this type of crap serves a purpose in making the association between the food we eat and where it comes from, which seems to somehow have gotten lost over the years. These vegans and vegetarians' self-congratulatory bullshit utopian ideals wouldn’t last a week in the real world, ie: nature... Just because society protects you from experiencing what it would be like to fend for yourself doesn’t mean you should forget the sacrifices made on your behalf and act as though you've evolved. As for the guilty of abuse and murder, please, what about what we do to other species, and cultures, and countries, or how about what we allow our government to do to us. Get over yourself and wake up to the fact that we're all Godless Beasts! Nothing less, and definitely nothing more! …Fucking sheep!

And to all my vegan and vegetarian friends who opt not to eat meat for other than these supposed moral reasons, I obviously intend no offense...

Graceless

Regrets collect like old friends

Here to relive your darkest moments

I can see no way, I can see no way

And all of the ghouls come out to play

And every demon wants his pound of flesh

But I like to keep some things to myself

I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind

I can never leave the past behind

I can see no way, I can see no way

I'm always dragging that horse around

All of his questions, such a mournful sound

Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

But it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh whoa

And I am done with my graceless heart

So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn

And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back

And given half the chance would I take any of it back? 

It's a fine romance, but it's left me so undone 

It's always darkest before the dawn

And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road

And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat

'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me (oh whoa)

Looking for heaven, for the devil in me (oh whoa)

Looking for heaven, for the devil in me (oh whoa)

But what the hell, I'm gonna let it happen to me
