Today Has Songs ... and a little content..

What an interesting last few weeks! I had a wonderful birthday... 30 doesn't really feel any different than 29 did, but hell, it's a milestone, right? I just want to thank all the people in my life for being there and being my friends. I love all of you.

Sweet The Sting

With a Strut into the room
With his hat cocked so defiantly he said
"I - I have heard that you can
Play the way I like it to be played."
I said, "I can play, any way that you want.
But first I want, I want to know

Baby is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail"

He said "I laid my weapons
down with my pistol
Fully loaded, a hunted man
To my root, will it end
Or begin in your cinnabar juice?"

Is it sweet sweet
Sweet the sting
Is it real this infusion
Can it heal where others before have failed?
If so then somebody
Shake shake shake me sane
'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail"

Love let me breathe
Breathe you in
Melt the confusion
Until there is
Union...

-Tori Amos

You're All I Have

Strain This Chaos Turn It Into Light
I've Got To See You One Last Night
Before The Lions Take Their Share
Leave Us In Pieces, Scattered Everywhere

Just Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Just Give Me Something To Hold Onto

It's So Clear Now
That You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear Cos
You Are All That I Have
It's So Clear Now That
You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear Cos
You Are All That I Have

You're Cinematic Razor Sharp
A Welcome Arrow Through The Heart
Under Your Skin Feels Like Home
Electric Shocks On Aching Bones

Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Just Give Me Something To Hold Onto

It's So Clear Now
That You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear
Cos You Are All That I Have
It's So Clear Now
That You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear
Cos You Are All That I Have

There Is A Darkness Deep In You
A Frightening Magic I Cling To

Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Give Me A Chance To Hold On
Just Give Me Something To Hold Onto

It's So Clear Now
That You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear
Now You Are All That I Have
It's So Clear Now
That You Are All That I Have
I Have No Fear Now
You Are All That I Have

Wonderland

Take a piece of the sky
Make it rain cherry wine
Give her love give her life
Give her mine

She's a child young and willing
In a world that's unforgiving
That in time takes all the living
From your soul

I stand in the night with a silver sword
Killing her demons, beating 'em off her door
Sleep baby don't you cry
Daddy's got a worn-out lullaby
And I live forever dark, and damned
To see you spend one minute
In wonderland

She can run free forever
Still our blood runs us together
I'll be there if she runs home
For worse or better

I know you like Adam knew Eve
Every tear you cry is a tear that I will bleed
Sleep baby don't you cry
Daddy's got a worn-out lullaby
And I live forever dark, and damned
To see you spend one minute
In wonderland
