Gray Haze

GRAY HAZE

Warm gray haze, smoke in my lungs

A funny little feeling, slowly it sunk

I smile a bit, for no real reason

I’m at peace, life’s at ease and

I take another puff, get real high

No care for the world, aim the sky, no more shy

As the hands, the feet, the face get numb

Slowly it sets in, I’m being so dumb

Gotta stop drugs, I have to quit

Every time I do them, I feel like shit

Time to go clean, live a little sober

Am getting a life now, the dream world is over

I tried so hard, was clean for a few days

Till on the streets, I smelled the gray haze

“Just one” I think, “I’ll slowly stop”

It gets me high and I feel on top

It makes me worse, yet I feel so good

I love this feeling though quit I should

Get numb, feel dumb, stop I would

Gotta quit, feel shit, I wish I could.

Alive

Alive

Dead to the world, was me asleep

3 in the night, woke up drowning deep

I looked at the ripples, the reflection wasn’t mine

The eyes stared down, watched me supine

It was the world watching me sink

Indifferent they seemed about my last eye blink

Dead to the world, deep in memories I slept

4 in the morning, I woke up with fire around my bed

The luminous flames the world had put blinded my eyes

And the heat of the inferno shut my mind

With no one around, the final moments came

Alone I burnt, my death had no name

5 in the morning, first of the sunbeams

My eyes flashed open, rose from lurid dream

With you by my side I took a deep breath

Kissed your forehead, towards you I leant

Your loving smile made me know

My life is more than a howling echo

It means something to those who give it meaning

That’s when I know in spite of the dreaming

Your love will always keep me floating

And put out the flames when the heart is burning

Take my life away

Will you please

Will you please

Will you please

Take my life away

I only have to say

Will you please

The mornings are too cold

The city’s getting old

The nights are hard to live

So will you please

The sky is turning gray

Like a sad portrait

Saying is the gloomy sea

Will you please

Will you please

Take my life away

I only have to say

Will you please

A thousand nights and day

For you I’ve prayed

Wish that you could heed

So will you please

Let my cadaver lay

Now that you’re away

Set my spirit free

Will you please

Will you please

Take my life away

I only have to say

Will you please

Will you please

“a forever”

“a forever”

Your love is more precious than mine

Baby you mustn’t know, I don’t have much time

Even though I wish a forever with you

You must go find another love which is true

You remember all the songs I wrote for you

And all the promises that I made

I can’t be faithful and sing them all

As with time, away I fade

Think of it all as a big lie

Time to go, without bidding goodbye

Like the clouds disappear, after the rain

I’m leaving you forever, won’t be back again

Your love is more precious than mine

Now you know, I dint have much time

How I wished a forever with you

Fulfil my last wish, find a love which is true

“My love for you”

“My love for you”

Thinking everyday of what you said to me

What we are and what we could be

Just as I was leaving for a long long time

You asked me to be yours and you to be mine

Now am coming back to tell you how I feel

Forever with you I just wanna be

While you were gone, all seemed so wrong

Now life will be bright, we’ll make the things right

At a distance far away, I just couldn’t stay

A little late I know, but now I know my love for you

Baby do you remember the time that we spent

How the days passes, and the cold nights went

I’ve been thinking of the moments all along

In my dreams every night the thoughts get all wrong

Since I was gone to the place far far away

The only thing for you my heart has wished to say

While you were gone, all seemed so wrong

Now life will be bright, we’ll make the things right

At a distance far away, I just couldn’t stay

A little late I know, but now I know my love for you

A little late I know, but now I know my love for you

LAST KISS

Starry sky, moonlit night

Lost in love, only slight

Holding her close was he

For it was the last kiss to be

“Can you not stay for me” she asked

Treacherously slow did the time pass

It was time for him to move away

How he wished that he could stay

Cold and confused he stood still

“I’ll come back”, for sure he will

But he was asked a question savage

“At my answer the world would disparage”

She tosses the coin high, says let it choose

He took a step towards her, to never let her lose

“I knew what I wanted, when the coin flew up

For you my love anything I’d give up”

“But I want you to go, come back for me

I was a little poignant, a girl you see

And when you come, you must never leave

Oh! The beautiful eve, I can conceive”

With tears in their eyes, he had to go

Never did he know, she loved him so

Wanting to stay, stay always was he

But it was one last kiss to be

"The last kiss to be"
