No Compass

Reaching, missing, falling
You are the clueless culprit
I am nothing, nowhere

You frolic behind the blunder
In your serendipity
I sink through my dreams

Trade one penny for another
Perhaps a shinier one
Same date, same Abe, same wish

In haste and derailment 
I aim to go anywhere
Somehow anywhere leads to you

Not this time though
Mister Blasterskite
I'll hum a tune of magnificence

I'll find what you lost
Be the star in your sky
Shining bright when your eyes close


Night Life


Another wasted glance
Just go ask her to dance
Ripe like a spring flower
Yet you’re gonna be a coward
With intentions unknown
You blend like a stone
Thus tonight’s escapade
Ain’t getting you laid
While that fifth glass of wine
Makes them all look fine
You’ll step on some toes
But we’ll see where it goes
So you think you’ve got swag
But you missed her red flag
When her eyes flashed alarm
As you tickled her arm
And though she’s not the gal
You initially prowled
She’s got enough glamour
To bring down your standards
Just looking for fun
Or is she the one
It’s the wrong place and time
To straddle that line
Should have had a bouquet
But it’s rum you display
Maybe it’s her taste
But it seems like a waste
So go on and shake
She’ll be gone when you wake

Carpe Diem?


Seize the moment, seize the day
Seize me up, and she’s betrayed
Can’t see the past, callused at last
So nil remains to force abstain
You heave the pain into the rain
To wash away your oath to stray
Silver line on our clear divine
Our wishing well, no kiss and tell
But we pull apart to save the heart
From the strain, the ruptured vein
You and I must say goodbye
Forever devote to empty hope
