You Remind Me Of
The brightest star in the sky
On a cloudless night in July
A beautiful flower
Swaying in a spring shower
A wonderful dream
With love as it's theme

Thanks Children
I'm pissing into the wind
Thanks children
Another hard punch from behind
Thanks children
The irony is amazing
The anger, the pain, its all blazing
Thanks children
Will it happen again?
Lets ask the children...

Facing Backwards, Upside Down
Girls bathroom, under water
Not a son, but a daughter
Facing backwards, upside down
Inside out, underground
I am in the wrong place
The wrong life
The dull side of the knife
I don't belong here
But I have no fear
I feel deep down inside
That if I just let it ride
The change will come about
Boys bathroom, above water
A son, not a daughter
Facing forward, downside down
Right side out, above ground

The Elusive Smile
I'm trying to find that smile
The one I haven't seen in a while
That smile that I now can only see in dreams
The smile that never came to my screams
It got me through the rough times
It was all I could see sometimes
The smile I saw at your door
The symbol of you I adore
The smile is out there
And I hope everything plays out fair
And all my efforts are worthwhile
So I can once again see your smile

Used Car Lot
I want to buy a new car
One that will take me far
That gets great miles per gallon
Makes my heart race like a stallion
One that won't break down
Or throw me around
We will treat each other well
And we will never fail
But I can't leave my old car
For so long it has been my star
We have come so very attached
So perfectly matched
But it guzzles too much gas
And other cars always pass
It hardly ever runs
And looks no longer stuns
I treat her so nice
But she won't change for the price
