Plastic Melody
Don’t stay inside your head
it’s such a filthy mess
it’s heaven to be fed
your mother shakes her head
there’s nothing to be said
you’re better off then dead
a plastic melody, a rubber band
turns into a sound
distracted by a hurt mentality
just trying to be free
discipline or don’t
it’s not a funny joke
the urge will disappear
if you confront the fear
when i lived in the cut
my life was in a rut
i’m done making mistakes
but i only learn that way
a plastic melody, a rubber band
turns into a sound
distracted by a hurt mentality
just trying to be free
no one picks up the telephone
i wonder if they are at home
no one picks up the telephone
i guess ill just leave them alone
no one picks up the telephone
i wonder if they are at home

Squirrel in the Yard
squirrel in the yard
you’re wandering
frantically digging a whole in the ground
i’m just like you
figuring out
a place i can settle down
squirrel in the yard
your eyes look around
fearing the worst
holding your ground
EMDR will help me live down
the pain of all the worst times i’ve felt
don’t you cry (hide) no more, no more
and don’t you cry (hide) no more ,anymore
and i’m still here i’m whistling
the same old tune
asking myself
what is the point
in walking on
there is no other
way to go
the memories
so painful and dark
they haunt my dreams every night
if you don’t try
you’re hurting yourself
there is no other
way to go
don’t you cry (hide) no more, no more
And don’t you cry (hide) no more , anymore
squirrel in the yard
you’re wandering
fearing the worst
but holding your ground
i’m just like you
wandering round
forgetting all the
worst times i’ve felt
squirrel in the yard
and will i fail?
i’m asking myself
of course you might
there’s no way to tell
if you don’t try
you’re hurting yourself
there is no other
way to go
