I thought nothing of it! Until I decide... "Hey, I'll go for a 2 hour walk." So after I had already started my walk, the songs won't play. The iPod will be on play but the songs will remain at 0:00 time. So, I reset my iPod today on the first, and readded songs. Still doesn't work. Time to replace it, it seems! R.I.P.

On the shores of our land...
Look off to the east,
Black pearls, green sea.
A stain on your hand, must be...
To know you will never see everything.
When your sorrows have a name,
Will you create a boundary...
And block it away?

Stand tall, soldier.
No need to fall to your knees-
When the breeze feels so good.
Rise up, fly high, majestic eagle...
And look to the ground,
A shadow of your own self.
The life you left behind-
For the greater good.

Your name, is Agent C now...
Reborn, an eagle-- From a phoenix.
At the gates of destiny...
After so much pain, and so much pleasure...
You've molded a human sculpture of yourself-
That now looks nothing like you.
Line up and see the exhibit for yourself...
You shall see it... through the eyes of a child-
Through the eyes of a fool-
And the eyes of a god.
If you don't believe me,
Crack the riddle of a painted world-
Gamble with the devil, in a game of hangman.
Wait for sleep under a glass moon...
That shatters beneath you-
Slowly... slowly...
Drifting off into your own nowhere...
A thousand points of light-
Flashing... Flashing...
At you from so high above.
Majestic eagle, when push comes to shove...
Fight the seagull. Fight the dove.
But until then-
Enjoy the echoes, screams, cheers...
Encore!
The lights are dimmed...
The lights are gone...
But don't despair,
The fireflies are almost here.]]> Coward http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/18/2t1nyn_coward Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:04:51 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/18/2t1nyn_coward So deep inside...
Words that need to be said...
Nights I spend, laying on my bed...
Awake, memories racing through my head.
Words that I should've said,
But it's far to late now.
Nothing can be done,
Nothing can be undone.
I heard a miracle, in the breeze...
A soft whisper... and an icy touch...You?
I pray you'll hear my pleas...
For with these regrets, I stand on a crutch... Without You?

Burning bridges, that could have led to the stars...
Binge drinking, in public bars...
Fire trucks and cop cars,
Through that whole night in jail,
We were silent, as we ate our bread... Stale.
All systems go,
Time to restart,
Everything seemed to flow,
But we were blindfolded.
Yearning for happiness,
That which can only be pursued.
Searching, never finding...
We part our ways here.
I cannot keep steer-
This car ride is becoming a ride of fear.

This is...
A final scream,
From the nymph, dying in the tree...
Bleeding... What you call sap.
She can't breathe,
With nothing left to redeem,
Found everything she needed... And that fell on her...
The stairs are a killing force.
Let the cycle of life and death... take its course.
Betrayed, Unbroken...
Seems like it's all a joke.
That you came out with a leg that was broke.
And over there, your lover is dying...
Over your leg, you sit in the corner... crying.
Coward.]]> Only You http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/09/2s96tq_only_you Tue, 9 Jun 2009 08:20:50 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/09/2s96tq_only_you Another night, goes by...
A night I cannot sleep-
To busy, thinking about you. Only, only you.
What is this feeling, never felt it before...
I feel I can do anything, everything...
And I feel... I can't stop talking to you.
Tears me apart, to hang up that phone,
Knowing I won't hear from you again tonight.
In this world, you are all I care about.
In my jumbled mind, you are all I think about.

I can't even gather the strength,
To write a love song.
I have been afflicted with writers block.
All I can write about, is what I want to say to you.
But the only problem is...
I can't find the words. Scattered...
So here I am, giving you silly nick names-
Here you are, giving me a silly nick name-
And I feel fine here.
I like this point in life-
Where I love you more than I can say-
But I can't see you, so I search for a way-
Hoping for that day-
Where I can hold you in my arms,
And there, you stay.
Day after day, I wait...
Hoping you will invite me, to see you...
Somewhere, anywhere...
So I can feel you.
Hug you, warm you.
Kiss your neck, and play with your hair.

Sometimes, I wonder if I'm doing the right things.
Making the right moves.
Saying the right words.
But sometimes, I know-
I know you are entertained-
I know I'm doing everything right.
And all I want to talk to about with my friends is you.
Only you.
But at the same time,
I don't want to mess anything up.
So here I wait, within my own mind.
Dropping hints to you, and other people.
About how I feel.
I'm just amazed-
All I needed- you.
Waiting. Just waiting there,
Always there around the corner,
And vice versa.
I fell in love with you somehow,
After only knowing you for a few weeks.
But hey, I can't complain.
For with you, my mind really speaks.
I have found the one my heart seeks-
And even in the worlds abscence,
I am never lonely.
Thank you.
Thank you for showing me what love is.]]> Closer http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/05/2rwe1u_closer Fri, 5 Jun 2009 05:20:39 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/06/05/2rwe1u_closer Another beat of the heart...
Every second, it seems, closer...
Closer to finding what I have been searching for.
I sometimes wonder,
What do you think?
Do I say and do the right things?
Or am I just wrong?
I could be a liar, I could be a lover...
I could be sensitive, as a flower...
And you, you could see through my charade.
Just another day, goes by...
Another day I fall in love, all over again.
Another day of bad news I choose to let go,
It seems my quest for the city of gold has come to an end at last.
I have found it in ruins,
But still, the most beautiful place I have ever seen.
This place, this city...
The imperfections are what make it so beautiful.
But do not be decieved by the name...
This city is indeed a mocking bird.

You might find, the path here...
Was worth it.
You might find, the task...
Was indeed a learning experience.
I want to be, what is me...
As does the city of gold.
They expect you to be an easy catch,
But sadly an easy catch is not what I'm looking for.
An easy task, that is not my goal.

The jester and his hat...
Beneath the disguise is just another man,
Found a place in the world... But he could achieve so much more.
He found a place among fools alike,
For when people cheer... encore! encore!
They aren't cheering at him.
For he is only an imposter.
Hello, my name... is Illusion.
I decieve, I make believe...
I tell you lies, upon lies.
But hey, I make you happy,
So I continue, on and on.
Close your eyes, count to 10.
Your name is Miss Fortune.
Miss Fortune, welcome to the circle-
Entwined among the lovers and liars,
Your last name bares fortune.
Fortune at the cost of misfortune.
Have a great life, my dear.
Entertain, make them believe-
You can pull a rabbit out of a hat.
They will believe whatever you say,
They will search for a way,
And on the final day...
It will be to late.
They left fortune behind, to try to find something better...
That which didn't exist.
Well done, madame Evangeline.]]> Blinding City Lights http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/31/2rhc7p_blinding_city_lights Sun, 31 May 2009 04:21:57 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/31/2rhc7p_blinding_city_lights Flag carrier...
You have the upper hand,
Make your way through the crowd,
To the other side of this land-
Where there is not a single cloud...
Not a single cloud to rain on your parade.
Not a single hero-
To take away your glory.
City lights glowing...
I walk across the park,
And stop to see children playing amongst the swings...
I zone back into reality... it's all rusted things...
Noone plays here, the slide needs some attention.
So I lay amongst the slide,
Vomit, sweat and slobber stains...
Looking at the stars, that are the city lights.
I know you are not so far... We are not so far apart.
Don't close your eyes...
Even though the city lights went out-
Everything... erased... Time to start over.
Don't give me light-
Not until after tonight...
Only for one night.

Do you find it's no use?
You had the chance to choose,
You chose wrong, so what is wrong you abuse.
Don't go, don't go... I told you so.
Hold on, Hold on... at least until dawn.
It is only for tonight.
Take this, the cloak and dagger...
Denying, you walked away with a stagger.
You can't survive in this world- of mainstream...
You can't survive in this world- of hopeless souls redeemed.
They will influence you, say no... Say no to the radio-
It's the way we go- time to take it by storm...
Time to churn the sands...
See the underground in our hands.

I don't want to hear the same music,
I don't want to see the same shows,
I don't want to hear your politics,
I don't want to see your sad attempts at original ideas...
I want to see... only into your mind.
The music, the ideas...
I want to see... you gaze into the sky
And not see the city lights... Look to the stars.
Express the thoughts you hide deep inside,
The thoughts hidden deep within your skin-
I want to star gaze... Through your eyes.
But so far all I see... city lights and media lies.
But I know you want to live- Away from it all...
Try, just try to push it all aside.
Tear the posters from your walls...
Don't be distracted even though the white noise calls...
Rip the cords in half, there is power in no power at all.

Are you one of the marching undead?
No, you have so much in your head.
When walls are closing in, no tears are shed...
I saw you take action, and soon enough...
You took control of the mindless drone-
Are you one of the mindless drone?
Are you one to throw a bone?
The dogs need it- they beg for it...
But you heard on the news... might give them cancer...
I had to laugh at your response to my answer.

Throw out the news papers-
Turn off all your power, use the papers for fire-
Just for one night,
Throw it all away.
There is power in feeling inferior...
There is much to understand, and more to be understood...
When you can hear, when you can see...
What you want to. Only what you want to.
We don't need your stinking media-
We don't want your silly advertisements-
We just want to live without fear-
We want... to destroy the mainstream.
Build a dam, and block it from the world.]]> Ironic http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/28/2rax5m_ironic Thu, 28 May 2009 23:27:51 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/28/2rax5m_ironic Time... it is such a concept...
Goes by so fast, has its ups and downs...
A rollercoaster that ends when we decide to get off-
But, but we don't want to get off.
Take a ride with me, please.
Take a ride on the roller coaster-
Such a concept.

How long will this last?
How much will we remember?
How will we be remembered?
Seems every moment- goes by oh so fast...
And in the past months- I have learned so much...
Everything... will be alright.
If I could, I would run the ride-
But aint it funny how, after trying to find myself...
I found someone else...
But now summers here, the sun warms me...
But I won't see you again, for another few months.
Isn't it funny how- I finally got to know you,
At the very end of the days.
But we don't know- how... or when...
We'll meet again, it might be sooner than expected.
But I can dream. I can dream.

Aint it funny how, I grew tired of every day-
But found a ride to that place,
Where I discovered I was just fine.
And you don't know- how much I needed...
To know I was fine.
And now you're gone, I was to shy to say goodbye-
I have that feeling again.
Maybe it's time...
I take my things, and head off to the coast-
Maybe I will see your reflection, in the ocean.
Far from the moon glow,
Always... always sunshine here-
Too bad I didn't know-
I would find you amongst the stars.
Just run away- please run away from here.
Never... never stop running-
Or you will have to fight.
Stay east. Continue east.
I will continue west.

Take me now, please take me off the ride, this devilish deal...
No more roller coasters-
Take me now, to the ferris wheel.
No more roller coasters-
You were all the adrenaline rush I needed to feel.
Corroded steel, rusted by water...
How can this seem so funny?
Look at the irony,
Of the dangerous ferris wheel,
Look at the irony,
Of despair out of love.
Perhaps the best feeling...
Is not to feel at all.
Perhaps the best ride...
Is the only one I cannot confide,
Look at the irony,
Of nobody listening...
To a screaming child.
Look at the irony of life---
Despising ignorance.

Useless, the sun that burns my skin-
I don't need... To depend...
On summer being here and gone.
I will wake up tomorrow, and it will a brand new day-
Where I can look forward to seeing you.
I believe...
I can win the lottery.
But I don't believe...
That I believe in luck.]]> 7 Minutes http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/27/2r4y3o_7_minutes Wed, 27 May 2009 02:11:15 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/BleedingTree/journal/2009/05/27/2r4y3o_7_minutes I wrote this during my 3rd hour final... =P

Here I walk, in solitude but never alone...
You guide me here, through a path of decay,
Right off a cliff, and you break my fall-
You- a raging river to wash me ashore...
Please don't wake me, I am at peace here.
Beneath the sun, covered in flies-
Dreaming of us in paradise.
They never mixed. They never mixed.
Before I knew you, I never felt love- or despair.
And I realized, one day... I would save your life.
But for now, I will take my time.
Like foxes, we exchanged subtle glances,
Now and again, we were indifferent to this world.
Please tell me now, I have 7 minutes left.
To make you mine... Plenty of time to say-
One simple word of affection.
Please believe, believe it's true.
For love... is a verb.
Just a verb, a simple do word.
That we take for granted.

Night light in the day, darkness fears the month of May...
The moon shines, like an april ghost in a silver spoon-
Gentle torment, I see upon your face- dirt. Spit.
Faithful mirror, mirror on the wall...
What is the greatest love of all?
The love shared between night and day.

Choke back tears and say, I don't care...
This 7 minutes is the rest of eternity- make it yours.
7 minutes... Can seem so long- or so short.
For in our heaven, we can alter time.
Time is just a verb- another do word.
We can control how it is done.
One more kiss, or perhaps five more,
But no matter what, each one is just a kiss.
And they go by oh so fast. Remember every one...
For these moments, they will never come again.
Never again.
So, what is tomorrow without you?
Another day that I try to die...
Stop, my dear, stop keeping me alive-
You, the anchor of my sorrows.]]>
