Nightmare

Sleeping peaceful at night

What a wonderful sight

Picture me there

Drinking a beer

Do I really see everything so clear

Drifting away thoughts oh so free

In vision people passed away I see

Roaming from place to place city to city

Cause and effect, wow! Then it all hit me

Fighting for my life sweaty palms pumping heart so strong

How could this nightmare last so long

Lying here sleeping in a position so sad

My nightmares are somewhat bad

High as the sky

Oh my God, I’m going to die

Bad things happen to me in my sleep

I pray my soul to keep

Deeper and deeper I sleep

Pull back the shade and let in the glare

I suddenly awaken from a frightening nightmare

Final Thought

Constantly thinking of rhyme and reason

Our thoughts of everyday life go with each season

You won’t go wrong

From a tree branch growing far and long

Build on that tree with every thought

Don’t be taken by the things money has bought

The thought of you being a fool

No one knows the good in you

Thinking of you with the thought that’s true

Makes me feel sad and blue

Emptiness is a thought we all feel

Love can be a thought to heal

You can have the biggest thing greatest in size

Take your pick is that your prize

But the thought of no love leaves you empty inside

When you love someone who doesn’t love you

The thought of what they say is a lie and cannot be true

Everyday thoughts is something we were taught

A final thought is something that cannot be bought

Constantly thinking of rhyme and reason

Why do we try to keep on pleasing

Close your eyes your mind is a blur

Wandering into space and thinking about her

The thought of you not there

Shows you just don’t care

A new beginning to come you better beware

The thought of loving you was easy to do

But I was the fool thinking the love coming from you was oh so true

Think once and think twice

If love isn’t a certain way then things will never be right

The thought of love is not supposed to hurt

You keep taking and taking playing me for a jerk

Close your eyes your thoughts are grim

Wandering into space and thinking about him

I thought you loved me but it was all a lie

My final thought to you is to say goodbye

Another Man Is Beating My Time

When I leave my home to what I think is mine

Another man is beating my
