"I'm not gonna lie... I wrote and read all this shit...

and I'm kinda f*cked up!" - Tom Jensen, collaborhythm



ONLY SHARED WITH YOU By Tom Jensen

I found the truth within a song

As soon as I turned the radio on

The singer spoke your name

I couldn't turn it off


I didn't know

That you knew him, too

I'm not only one

Who writes love songs for you


He described your eyes

As deeply troubled and blue

Said you tried to hide your crying

But he'd seen right through


And that sounded a lot like

Something that I once wrote for you

Surely some time has passed

Yet my feelings still hold true


Yeah those words read a lot like

A verse of a love poem I once wrote, too

One that never became a song

Because 'twas only shared with you...




ANOTHER QUARTER by Tom Jensen

When I am alone and all by myself

Sometimes I begin to fill up

full of self-doubt

Fills my head I can’t get it out

And what’s within me

I could live without it


Depression closes my eyes…

like sleeping

When I feel like life…

has passed me by

I break down inside… start weeping

Yet thoughts of wasted time…

won’t relieve this cry

The tears I spill are now seeping

Down below the earth…

they’ll soon reside

Soothing this malaise…

that’s been creeping


I’ve looked up and down

And left and right

I’ve gone out searching

In the middle of the night


I have spent my days

Just wandering around

And I’m still looking

For what I haven’t found


I searched for

What I sought to find

Found the fruit

Couldn’t get it off the vine


So I climbed

And climbed and climbed

I’ve tried and tried and tried

But I can’t get it off of my mind


When I am alone

And all by myself

Sometimes I begin

To fill up full of self-doubt


Fills my head

I can’t get it out

And what’s within me

I could live without it


I just want to make my mark

Before I lose this spark

And the room gets dark

Then the game is over


Then I’m sure I’d love

To play again

Or else it seems like

Such a waste and such a sin


Ladies and gentlemen

You’ve all become

My special friends


Hopefully we’ve got something

Greater to discover




TRENDING by Tom Jensen

Uh…Yeah…huh!

I’m trending…

But for all the wrong reasons

Everybody's googling me

Looks like it's now open season:


It's hunting time

Must be a slow day for the media

I just found five more lies

About me on Wikipedia


Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey


I've been good in all my wheelings and dealings

I've done the best I could

Yet when I bet red the little ball landed on black

Just like I kinda knew it would


Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey


So if karma cares about my feelings

I paid it forward

And now I ask for some of it back

Just a little bit back


Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey


I'm due for some good luck

Really, sincerely I believe

I am that diamond in the rough

And the needle in a haystack

All rolled into one...


Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey


Find me and we'll have some fun

Are you lucky at cards or are you lucky at love?

Neither? Me, too...


(alright)

Alright!

Come on!

I'm trending...

But for all the wrong reasons

Everybody's googling me

Looks like it's now open season:


It's hunting time

Must be a slow day for the media

I just found five more lies

About me on Wikipedia


I'm trending

I'm just trending

Baby, I'm trending

Whoo!

I'm just trending...





SECRET ROOM By Tom Jensen

I have turned the knob

That opens up a door

To a secret room

That doesn't have a floor


Where the walls are bare

And there is just

a folding chair there


Floating in both

space and time

And on it reads a sign


That states:

This is the throne to

a kingdom which awaits


Any man who creates

A way to rise up

above the fray

And reach the seat

Hanging below this archway


For he is the protégé

Who can free this world

From its ever present pain

Block out the sun

Turn off and on the rain


He who holds the power

To build both churches and schools

He who holds the power

To destroy all under his rule


He who holds the power

To entrap and enchain

He who holds the power

And yet he will refrain...




EAST TIMOR By Tom Jensen

Amidst this endless

and senseless violence

The one thing

that I despise most

Are the swords that

were swung in silence


For when futile

becomes resistance

The bloody few who are left

Look to us

for some assistance


But it's by our weapons

That their blood is spilled

When you're wiping out poverty

Sometimes it's just cheaper to kill


So we justify we need a place

For our new submarine base

Since our economy is tanking

Why let good weapons

go to waste?


Sell them to Indonesia

And everybody wins

At least those with a voice

Amplified by

propagandist spin


I'm getting angry

unhappy

If I start crying

please slap me

Slap this frown

right off of my face

As you see I'm in

a delicate state


Been like this

for years

How long

will they have to wait?


When the media

is your ally

You can hide a genocide

Started back before 1975

Hundreds of thousands

have lost their lives


Amidst this endless

and senseless violence

The one thing

that I despise most

Are the swords that

were swung...in silence
