im a talker, a dreamer and a screamer, i hate, wait, and debate... and of late... i love. ive lost, and ive gained, i have waited while it rained, my tears, and for many years, pain was all i felt. ive been dealt a horrible hand, and through it all ive made my stand... with words... i speak my mind, and often i find, that my mind isnt something people want me to share. alot of people dont really care, and alot of them do. sadly tho ive met more of hte former, less of hte latter, and the tattered emotional mess, doesnt bother me one bit... cause i let it out in black and white. i fight the troubles with words laced in spite, and i have faith that one day i might, get free and find the light...

ima put down some lyrics from a great artist by the name of damien rice, and the late great gerry garcia, of hte greatful dead... check them and there bitchen music out... it speaks to me... maybe it'll speak to you...

volcano

(Damien)
dont hold yourself like that...
you'll hurt your knees
i kissed your mouth and back
thats all i need
dont build your world around
volcanos melt you down

and what i am to you, is not real
and what i am to you, you do not need
and what i am to you, is not what oyu mean to me...
you give me miles and mile of mountain and ill ask for the sea...

(carrol)
dont throw yourself like that
in front of me...
i kissed oyu mouth, your back
is that all you need
dont drag my love around
volcanoes melt me donw

and what i am to you is not real
and what i am to you you do not need
what i am to you is not what oyu mean to me
to give me miles and miles of mountains and ill ask for the sea

(Damien)
for what i give toy oyu
is just what im goin through
this is nothing new
no no just another phase of finding waht i really need
its what makes me bleed
you likea  new deseas
and lord she is still to young for me

(intermixed)
and what i am to you you do not need
she is still to young
volcanoes melt you down

you do not need me


Sugar Magnolia

Sugar Magnolia blossom's blooming
Head's all empty and I don't care
Saw my baby down by the river
Knew she'd have to come up soon for air

Sweet blossom come on under the willow
We can have high times if you'll abide
We can discover the wonders of nature
Rolling in the rushes down by the riverside

She's got everything delightful
She's got everything I need
Takes the wheel when I'm seeing double
Pays my ticket when I speed

She come skimming through rays of violet
She can wade in a drop of dew
She don't come and I don't follow
Waits backstage while I sing to you

She can dance a Cajun rhythm
Jump like a Willys in four wheel drive
She's a summer love in the spring, fall and winter
She can make happy any man alive

Sugar magnolia
Ringin' that blue bell
Caught up in sunlight
Come on out singing
I'll walk you in the sunshine
Come on honey, come along with me

She's got everything delightful
She's got everything I need
A breeze in the pines in the summer night moonlight
Crazy in the sunlight yes indeed

Sometimes when the cuckoo's crying
When the moon is halfway down
Sometimes when the night is dying
I take me out and I wander round
I wander round

Sunshine daydream
Walk you the tall trees
Going where the wind goes
Blooming like a red rose
Breathing more freely
Light out singing
I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream
Walk you in the sunshine
