KLNAHRR: The Revenge!

Hello all! It's been a long time since I blogged. Truthfully, I have some material that I COULD publish, but I find myself either deciding not to because they are a tad too personal or that nobody would want to read it. (Both?) As it goes, a lot has happened to me since the last time I blogged, but I don't really want to give a recap; there's a lot of stuff there I don't want to remember. I've taken a few steps forward, but quite a few steps back. I think I know where I'm going, and I know I have a long way to go before becoming who I should be. Maybe I'll compose those thoughts and compile them here, who knows? In the mean time, let's give my bloggity-blargh a little love with some lyrics I wrote around 5 years ago... I'm not super happy with them; they could be a lot better (i.e. they could actually be structured in a way that would make lyrics POSSIBLE*). But I will present them to you here and now!**

PENCIL PERFECT

Here I am sketching down the

black and white fantasies and then

doodling the future 'bout us

erasing here and there

it's not getting anywhere

Do you even care?

Can't get the picture right

of you cryin' in the night

or us dancing in the light

More than I can bear

all the simple lines

of your long hair

it's all there

CHORUS

It's not quite right

I'll try again

the black, the grey, the white

a simple pen

Take your time

I'll take mine

I'm feeling just fine, just fine, just fine

I don't mind.

There you are. I don't know how

you're feeling 'bout my masterpiece

It's got it all--

winter, summer, spring and fall

What we plan to do

when it's said and done

we will have our laughs and have our fun

Should I erase it?

Should I just trace it?

Or misplace it?

CHORUS

It's turning out, well

not what I'd planned

what's there in my head's

not in my hand

I draw you laughing

can't hear you though

I draw us about to touch

like you don't know, don't know, don't know

Take it slow

BRIDGE

Can't quite recreate the past or

give an accurate pencil prediction

I'm working on a blank page

on our monochromatic stage

This picture's gonna take awhile

so don't ever ever stop your smile

CHORUS

Won't turn out perfect

it never will

that's just the curse of

the ink and quill

It's finally finished

it took some time

it's not perfect, but to me it's fine

just fine, just fine

This picture of us

all drawn by me

on top of mountains

or by the sea

is where we'll be, we'll be, we'll be
