Down by the old canal, 

On that night time city street, 

Just listening to the music, 

Wondering who I’ll chance to meet, 

Quite a while into the sunset, 

But still alive and kicking, 

Never thought that I would still be…

Seeking justice in an unjust world, 

Setting out with sails unfurled, 

Leaving all my hopes to fate, 

Weathering the storms of hate, 

This course I’ve sailed on all my life, 

Although sometimes it causes strife, 

Sailing on the waves of…

All the dreams and nightmares, 

And things we never did, 

Words that weren’t written, 

Feelings that were hid, 

Memories fade to fiction, 

Reality starts to fade, 

Feels like we’re forgetting, 

Some due that went unpaid, 

From before the age of…

At the End of the Day 

When the sunlight fades, end of the day, 

What last words will we all say, 

We had the garden, threw it away, 

Now there’s only Hell to pay, 

Wise men and sages all down…

Eye Of The Beholder 

Another night I sit and write, 

The same thoughts bend my brain, 

The world, the sky, the people's cry, 

Are we really all insane. 

Madness here psychosis there, 

Everywhere are minds a smolder, 

Sanity is only…

Tears on each other’s sleeves, 

Hugs for the one that leaves, 

Out the storefront window, 

Scene played in the heat, 

Sad songs, sung inside.

Kids in Cages 

Words are hard to find these days, 

Failing in so many ways, 

Kids in cages hear their cries, 

This is how a nation dies, 

Kids in cages, no one cares, 

No one speaks out, no one dares, 

…

Stopped in one warm evening, 

To hear an old friend sing, 

Sat right up waiting for the break, 

Not sure what the night would bring, 

Three lost years faded quickly, 

As I listened to her voice, 

It was like we’d…

Of all the songs that you could sing, 

It had to be that one, 

Every single time I hear it, 

My heart comes all undone, 

Goes wandering back to better days, 

Before we fell apart, 

Makes me want to go…

I'm tired of staying quiet as I watch this hard rain fall, 

Even though I saw it coming, I just didn't make the call, 

Now as the storm continues and I watch the waters rise, 

All the things I thought…

Light on the horizon rises, 

Stars begin to fade for day, 

Been wandering out here all night long, 

Trying to think of what to say. 

You saw me talking with another, 

Last night at the dance, 

Been wandering out here…

                  Too Much 

Too much worry, not enough life, 

Too little love too, much strife, 

We only have these numbered days, 

Might be time to mend our ways, 

Can we enjoy the sunlight and the rain? 

Learn not to cause our…
