I need you for that gentle heart
I have never touched a gentle soul And I long for it, ever always My path was misled from the start Anyone who writes to hide what he is writing is foolish. Waiting for that something to return It's a longing for which you always yearn Carrying weight on your shoulder While your vision is in smoulder Where do you go, go from here Don't love the place I am Can't love the place I go My heart beats high rpm Revolution my soul must undergo Posters are covering my walls they don't keep company at all Can you tell me how And when you'll arrive (alt. But I can't allow Allow you to arrive) Lethargic in my room Lay me down to sleep Mummified and entombed Give a god my soul to keep Now from what I lost None of you shall reap When my body lies bandaged I cannot make my music None of it will flow Out from my middle soul A substitute I place for the skill So my voice will never go flat I wanna wipe out penury Clean off the destitute When i held her I was scared to death I, a frightened dancer My mind had left A light blue shell, forms around me Leaving me lonely on a Saturday night You play the foolhardy at the jester's party I'm suffocating, my jaw getting tight And you like it You think you like it When will hope pass go again It always seems to be going bankrupt I'll still deposit my soul For its life to be kept up Look deep with your soul Don't lose sight of the goal Hold the road up to the sky And you will learn to fly I let the bitterness blow away In the chilled wind where it belongs Feed the child Or he'll go blind Brains go wild With no hope to find Lustful desire put a crimson veil over eyes Heir to the passions of flesh Wild thoughts fly to her breast Of urgency of soul I must press (alt. Though desire of your soul I profess) Yet to your flesh i stray no less Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard

Walk down the road
Or stay out of the way It's the credo Of many youth today While the elders Betroth you to fate You fall closer To marriage with hate If the elders Marry you to fate You fall closer To betrothal with hate) If you don't make them your equals They will make you theirs And the future will doubleback Give you their destiny of tears Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard We're at an impasse
Life itself is on the line Failing the eternal class Opposing the divine mind We've got weapons of war Aimed at each others' heads Killing's what they're for Pulling triggers til we're all dead Assymetric warfare Doesn't seem like God cares We claim Him each on our side We run but can't hide Dear God! Hear my cry Help us love each other Before we all die Dear God! Set us straight Before we all explode In the shrapnel of hate Pour Your love into us Our souls as vessels of grace To love is what we must If we ever want to see Your Face It's an atomic Armageddon Mutually assured destruction We're getting pulled into the maelstrom Infinite gravitational suction Bombs and terror We're all in error Eternal acts of vengeance Everyone shooting Terror recruiting Violent plunge in a death dance Dear God! Don't forsake us Help us love each other Before Hell breaks us Dear God! Shine down your light Show us how to love Before might makes right Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I want you
To have all you need I want you To thrive and succeed I want you To live out your dreams To live, to love To burst at the seams I don't have much To give someone like you I lost a crutch And wore out all my shoes I felt so stuck Felt so far away But now I'm back And I'm here to stay I'm givin' all I have Givin' all I am I'm givin' all of me to you To no one but you I'm givin' all of me to you The only life I know is true Feel like you deserve better But what else can I do I don't deserve you But what else can I do Givin' all of me to you All I have, all I am Givin' to you through and through All I will, all I can Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I wanna talk with you today
About things I never say Can I gather up all the nerve Of straight paths I always curve? I wanna write you a love story Heroic virtue, eternal glory Where two souls meet bright and true Starring roles played by me and you It's a story of crossed pathways Present, future, and all past days Closing in on some convergence Volcano erupts love's emergence It's a miracle Irrefutable I want to write you a love story A crystal ball through which I foresee Don't let it die Before it's allive What I don't say To you from me I wanna write you a love story Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I'm gonna start a Friendship Revolution
A new Declaration and Constitution Ain't gonna be no theft or destitution As a prophecy in my revolution I've been singing of you For as long a I knew That a love that is true Is like a picture God drew You hair's waving in the air And I ain't got a care Coz I see you over there You're my everywhere And it's a Friendship Revolution Eternal love the only final solution Everlasting end to retribution In my friendly song of revolution Would you read a book I wrote Full of musical note No need to stay afloat This castle ain't got a float This is a Friendship Revolution Mixing random words causes convolution This cause ain't subject to dilution Confusion can't kill this revolution It's a revolution One that you can't shun No peace can be won Without revolution Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I drove over the side of a bridge
Landed in a quicksand ditch Don't know whether I'm poor or rich ...Or which is which Couldn't handle my loss of fame A dozen years been outta the game Lost everything, got nuthin but shame ...and no one else to blame But me... No one else to blame but me Locked the door, and tossed the key I was a bastard in the third degree With no one else to blame but me Thought that I had found the cure Got tricked with bait and switch as lure Dragged my soul through miles of sewer ...Til I found who you were My mind was scourged and maimed Til God Himself from on high came Reminded me of my true name ...and took away the pain From me I had no one else to blame but me But through me Christ could always see I was slave to sin and misery And only He could set me free ...Set me free Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard What's that ticking tock moving closer to dead
What's that viscous force applying steady pressure to your head What's that dropping dirt every time you dig a hole Providing all those empty calories to put inside your bowl It's a fury so unkind It burns the skin outside It really blows my mind And then we can't do this nor that The whole thing's out of whack So you just follow the pack While you're eating with those you love at home Put up dividing lines to see in monochrome Let all the little nameless children go starving While your problems we go a-fruitlessly solving You're not forced to live under a blinding veil And closing your eyes makes your mind go stale The lids are dry, you're not one who cries 'Cause When life kicks your ass, it sure opens your eyes Why can't you be left alone To run to your safety zone That I just couldn't condone Wonder when it's gonna turn around And bring the cycle down Until you, too, breakdown Pack your bags, it's time to get off to school Check out the girls, them curves that make you drool You got your degree, now toss the cap and gown You got money for nothing, now you can just lie around Time to make a living, time to pay the rent The Health Insurance Solution is a safety net You did your job, take it easy, time to take it slow Coz your past drives your future, and their's no time to grow And that's the fury so unkind It burns the skin outside It really blows my mind It's the fury called life Yea, it's a fury so unkind With no reason or rhyme It makes my brain unwind And it's a fury so unkind You're running out of time It's so hard to find The fury of life and time Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I'm slowing down to a crawl
Even though I wanna run Want to run with you all I'm back here feeling alone I've been here a long time now Waiting all day for tomorrow Following a dream that waits for me On a road that's always going Felt lonesome a long time And the remedy is at my fingertips And it won't be the flirt that finds me For I see none with my eyes All of those and none of them Are viewed with these eyes of mine And knowing of me will never be ours Until knowing knows itself When these verse are of your voice And of a choir are made these rhyme I've been lonesome for as long as I know A barren soul houses us all Though the hue of my vision is distorted I long for when I meet you outside This shell can be travelled through But be wary of what is your method Gentleness will only do What we want in the beginning and after So lonesome for a long time no more Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard You're simply flowing
Ain't ever knowing never stopping always going Your mind can't get a grip, but you can't let go Don't wanna slip But you wanna let it flow You ain't got control, coz it does you. And when it breaks the limit, take ya to the other side, Ya better hold on, Gonna take ya for a ride Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard |
