Don’t Look Back

Doe

Drop to my knees
As the leaves
Start to
Fall

I hear them
Rustling
In the Distance
And I feel so
Small

Something is comin'

And what once was
Distant
Now stares
Back at me

Little List

(Luckett)
Published by Pied Piper Lorre Musesick (ASCAP)

What have we, here?
A twist
Of irony?
I have a list
Of things
I'd rather be

Oh, welcome
To my life

In another time
I'll let you know
How I wound up
Here

Story of my life
Read between the lines

I know
I saw it
Once
Upon a time
And I could try
In another life

I cannot change
The Shape
Of things to come
But when I'm done
I'd like
Another life

Wrong

(Luckett)

Hard as it is
To admit
Met a force
That I cannot outwit
Funny
Humor me
In my disgrace
True,
The rumors
I choose to embrace
Pay up

Clenching
My teeth and my fist
I'm entrenching myself
For the twist
Dig in
Debts that
I have to repay
Face it
Something is
Coming my way

Listen up

No denying
The cold, hard facts
The Law
Reacts
When actions
Attract

In constant slope
When thrown
A curve
There was a line
I decided
To swerve

Now I know
There's a consequence
'Spesh for the
Faux fires
And fraudulence
Farce
The music is
Congruent
Drawn wrong

(So wrong)
Wrong (Acts and facts catch up)
I was wrong (Before long)
For so long (Finally it comes back so strong)
I was wrong (Got away for so damn long - wrong, so wrong)

(Swan song)
Wrong (Time to pay the piper)
I was wrong (Lifelong)
For so long (I can hear his awful charm song)
I was wrong (Melody I play along - wrong, wrong, wrong)

Hard as it is
To be hit
Deserve everything
I will get
Bring it!
Sometimes, you reap
What you sow
Sing it
Invoice reveals
What you owe
Pay up

That piper is
Swingin'
So swift
Landing punches
That feel like a kiss
Blue notes
Nothing at all
Wrong with being
Except
Being as wrong
As you please

Wrong (Time to pay the piper)
Sing along (Lifelong)
Same old song (I can hear his awful charm song)
I was wrong (Melody I play along - wrong, wrong, wrong)

Hard as it is

Deserve everything
I will get
Sometimes, you reap

Host

In dormancy
I see your true
Intention
Safe
To assume
That you'd consume
My entire being

I've been
A harbor
For your hunger
Insatiable
You survive
On a feast of lies
Inside of me
Burrowed

Only a matter
Of consequence
Is this
A consquence
Of lovin'?

Symbiotic
Infection
When I feed you
Hate
The viral way
You say,
"I need you."

Remember when
You said
You'd never leave me?
I'd be fine
If you
Changed your mind
Believe me

For this is
A famine of
Compassion
Starving for
Conversation
And refund
Of time
Borrowed

This is
A consequence
Of lovin'

Oh, consequence!

This is
A consequence
Of lovin'

This is
A consequence
Of givin'

This is
A consequence
Of livin'
