If I have showed the world 400 things i've written there's gotta be a few thousand that I have not. THAT'S for Patreon or ONLYFANS which I will have to start posting on...

FRESCO
by Tom Jensen
I've been waiting for a night like tonight
For so very, very long
Sitting here studying the portrait of my life
Wondering just where the artist went wrong
So why does my sketch in black and white
Contain so many deep, dark shades of gray?
My life before today had left me feeling sad and blue
When I'm with you I never want to say goodbye
To someone so beautiful that the angels sigh
I think of you in thoughts so kind
I painted your picture, it took me some time
You are the one that makes my life worth living
Yours is the last face I see before I fall asleep
You'll never be the one to break my heart
Never leave me alone to weep
Now all thoughts of retracing my past
They have become erased
And I live within your eyes
With each new line I'm redefined
Every time I draw your face
When I'm with you I never want to say goodbye
To someone so beautiful that the angels sigh
I think of you in thoughts so kind
I painted your picture, I could paint it blind
I drink to your health as I raise my glass
Toasting to a future and time that has not yet passed
As time crawls by and I stare above
I believe only in you - my muse - my love
Now all thoughts of retracing my past
They have become erased
And I live within your eyes
With each new line I'm redefined
Every time I draw your face
When I'm with you I never want to say goodbye
To someone so beautiful that the angels sigh
I think of you in thoughts so kind
I painted your picture, I hang it in my mind
MARRIED TO SOMETHING ELSE
by Tom Jensen
You watch him come stumbling 
through the door
Find yourself wondering 
if you can take it anymore
The wedding ring bonds 
until death does part
But what’s on your finger 
is not in your heart
After ten years it’s still the same
While the love is gone
The smell of whiskey still remains
You know you can’t let him drag you down
That’s why some nights 
you live in another town
You dream of a future where you are free
Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be
You stare at the door until he comes home
Thinking your happiest days are spent alone
Its tugging at your heart 
it replays in your mind
When he’s sober he’s one of a kind
But that only happens
about half of the time
After ten years it’s still the same
While the love is gone
The smell of whiskey still remains
You know you can’t let him drag you down
That’s why some nights 
you live in another town
You dream of a future where you are free
Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be
It’s never too late for another start
Age doesn’t matter 
when it concerns the heart
You know you can’t let him drag you down
That’s why some nights 
you live in another town
You dream of a future where you are free
Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be
It’s time to say your peace 
and pray a little prayer
To hope he’ll make it on his own 
when you’re not there
Then maybe he’ll take 
a look down inside himself
And realize he’s married 
to something else....
DEAD END by Tom Jensen
I know who you are
And who you want to be
I know you're entrapped
And you want to be free
You can't put off until tomorrow
What needs to be done today
We've had this talk so many times before
There's not much more I can say
When the days become years
You'll know that it's true
You'll look back and say
Why didn't I listen to you?
I've been down that road
Let me tell you my friend
That sooner or later
You'll see a dead end
The road will deceive you
With its ups and its downs
It's so hard to find direction
With your head spinning round
You found a hole in the sky
But it's so lonesome there
Even when you gaze down
You still feel no fear
Come on my darling
It's time to turn the page
The only way you're not dying
Is from old age...
I've been down that road
Let me tell you my friend
That sooner or later
You'll see a dead end
The road will deceive you
With its ups and its downs
It's time to get it together
Turn your life around
Two years later --
I'd hoped to see you again
But I couldn't make it
So some flowers I'll send
I tried to convince you
But you wouldn't bend
So sorry for you
Now you'll never mend
I've been down that road
I told you my friend
But sooner, not later,
You saw the dead end
The road has deceived you
With its ups and its downs
It's just so sad
I'll never see you around
UNITY 
by Lai Youttitham, Justin Justice & Tom Jensen
Sometimes when I look into your eyes
I feel I’ve been reborn
And yet other times 
I can feel my heart become 
Colder, broken and torn
There is no greater pain 
than letting what you want
Slip right through your fingertips
Sometimes it hurts, sometime it haunts
But the burning in your heart still lingers
Much like the touch of her lips
What I feel I might not always say
But I need you tonight just as much 
as I needed you today
Like a river overflowing
I know that my love for you is still growing
Let us hope it never fades away
That is why I say…
Unity…you and me together
Soon we’ll see if we can be 
Forever for, for one, for one another
Or else never 
will true love ever be discovered
Let me bend you and shape you…
Into…. what I want you…to be
A soul mate….a friend…
A lover of life for your whole life ‘til its end
My soul, conscience and my guide 
A true mirror to my inside
My eternal undying spring
Remember…
From nothing comes everything…
Comes everything
My delicate flower 
Giving me a garden in the wintery snow
Take me and show me 
Exactly where you would like to go
We both know that I’d follow 
just given the word
And as soon as I cried 
 From the years of lifted sorrow…
You’d be given the world
Unity…you and me together
Soon we’ll see if we can be 
Forever for one another
Unity…you and me together
Soon we’ll see if we can be 
Forever for one another
Or else never 
will true love ever be discovered
Or else never 
will a true love ever be discovered
UNTITLED UNLABELED
by Tom Jensen
I will never ask you 
For what you cannot give
Since I always speak the truth
I no longer know how to live
In a world full of illusions
False promises and disguise
One that no longer seeks solutions
Only places to hide
I wouldn't ask you for your heart...
Only for some piece of mind
I wouldn't ask you for your body
Only for some of your time
I will never ask you
If you'll love me 'til the end
I’d just ask you to hold my hand
And walk and talk with me and be my friend
I will never ask you
For that which 
I'd ever have to take
Nor would I want something that wasn't real
Hollow, pretentious or fake
I wouldn't ask you for your heart...
Only for some piece of mind
I wouldn't ask you for your body...
Only for some of your time
I will never ask you
If you'll love me 'til the end
I’d just ask you to hold my hand
And walk and talk with me and be my friend
I would ask you…
To just be my friend...
I would ask you…
To just be my friend...
FALLEN WALLS
by Tom Jensen
A whirlwind of thought starts spinning around
I've been thinking a lot ‘bout what's been going down
And about what's been going on 
as I read the texts of history
I see the pages keep repeating… 
The idea is becoming clear to me
I'm noticing a pattern of ebb and flow
The rise and fall of man, men and kings
As a great chasm seems to keep growing between
Self-proclaiming all-seeing beings 
and those who'll never know
I watch castles crumbling while at the same time
New statues keep rising as slaves stand side by side
Working all day on newly fallen walls 
And it's our job to keep rebuilding
What's not for our own protection 
Since these structures are used for dividing...
All people and states
All races and religions
It's become the best way to separate
Old new ideas from 
The foundation of tradition
First condense them
Then convince them to believe it's too late
When they know it really isn't
Get them to lose their hope
For if you can break their faith
Maybe they'll all stop searching for what's hidden
History's hands of time have told 
That when there's no buried treasure to behold
We all know there'll be no shovels left to be had 
Nor no more miners to find others out there 
to help them with their digging....
Ahhh
SLEEPWALKERS 
by Tom Jensen
When they're playing chess with you...
The game never lasts very long
Still haven't got a clue... why do you...
Why do you smile when you take a pawn?
Then their bishop overtakes your knight
When he wasn't even dressed to fight
Soon their queen upends your rook
Before you could even look
Another smile...
your knight just claimed a pawn
But now... now your little horsie's gone
He didn't run away... he just got sleighed
As the king of your castle 
he numbers his days
Yeah, you're wondering and pondering 
As you're endlessly wandering 
on and on and on...
And you're scribbling and scrabbling 
Along the chessboard of life feeling you're just a pawn
Sleepwalkers
Sleepwalkers
You just made a list of things 
that you need to say
About yourself, about the world 
and all its ways
Sometimes you think that it's a lie 
that hard work pays
Now that everything has been numbered –
 yes even your days
Why is everyone... 
sleepwalking around this globe…
This giant wheel?
Seems as a whole we can no longer feel 
While deep in this slumber
For the gift of the presence of love 
we no longer hunger
When our dreams are gone... 
yet we still walk on and on and on and on...
You just made a list of the things 
that you need to say
And it 'tis just one...
There's hardly no time left for anyone
As names and faces 
keep fading farther away
Still, you know you've got so much to give... 
so with this guilt you live
I'm sorry, 
but there's just too few hours in a day
You find your precious time 
becomes taken up 
Oh look now how... 
You're so easily led astray...
How'd your life become this way? 
(sleepwalkers)
Is this what you say?
(sleepwalkers)
While you're wondering and pondering 
As you're wandering 
on and on and on and on...
As you're scribbling and scrabbling 
Along the chessboard of life feeling you're just a pawn
sleepwalkers
sleepwalkers
EXIT THE SANDMAN By Tom Jensen
So the midnight oil
Seems to be burning again
The sandman's at your door
But he can't come in
With so much trying your mind
Tonight he's not your friend
Since there's so much
You're still trying to find
Before your time
comes to an end
You used to dream about today
But that was back then...
Back when...
You smiled as a child...
Before you got sucked in
Back when...
You always shared and never cared...
About the color of somebody's skin
Back when...
You didn't try to solve all your problems
With the bottom of a bottle
Drowning up your sorrows in a pool of sin
Back when...
You still had time to let the road unwind
But now your patience is wearing thin
Exit the sandman
Why not see it from the other side?
Doin' the best I can, man
And that ain't no lie that ain't no lie
DAYLIGHT AGAIN By Tom Jensen
Daylight again… Comes now and again
My only friend… That's left in the end
The shadows hide as the clouds creep by
I take stake in my mistakes in
The life I know the one I can't shake
Grabs me by the collar and won't let me go
There's only one way to live there’s only one way I know
I've been taken… I've been shaken
And sent out on my way
I have tumbled… I have stumbled
Just going from day to day
The only sunrise ahead
Is the one I see when I go to bed
I wake up in the dark circled by sharks
So I cover my head until there's daylight again
I'm trapped in a tunnel while sucked down the funnel
The light is dim in either direction
When you're only trying to escape and be safe
There's no time for perfection
From day to day to year to year
Somehow, some way I'll get outta here
Where I stand my feet are stuck in the mud
There's no chance I can rise above
With bars on the doors I can't climb out
My guide left me when the candle blew out
I came to my sense
and that was when
I knew I'd be down here
until there's daylight again
WATER FLESH AND BONE
by Tom Jensen
Should I go to San Francisco? 
I'm getting sick and tired of the snow 
I've been stuck around here 
For all my years 
And I've been thinking I better go 
There's not much that I'd be leaving 
Except the one person I believe in 
And maybe, maybe that's the reason 
Maybe it's time to let her go? 
For every day she waits 
The closer I come to slipping away 
I thought we were soul mates 
But I don't feel as strong about her today 
As I did yesterday
And I'm still waiting... 
But I'm barely hanging on 
My mind, it keeps debating 
Over whether I am right or I am wrong 
But every time I try to write
She becomes the subject of my song 
And I'm still waiting...
But I think that this time 
I might’ve been waiting too long 
She held the hands that helped mold me 
Into what I now am 
She was my inspiration 
Turned the key that drove me 
Away from a dark and desolate land 
She was my motivation 
But we all know 
That sometimes life doesn't always go 
The way in which you had it planned 
Some mornings you feel... 
Like you're on top of the world 
While other times... 
You're the damned of the damned 
So this morning I asked myself 
Should I go to San Francisco? 
I'm getting sick and tired of the snow 
I've been stuck around here 
For all my years
And I've been thinking I better go 
There's not much that I'd be leaving 
Except the one person I believe in 
And maybe that's the reason 
Maybe it's time to let her go?
WATCHER by Tom Jensen
Hold onto your dreams
Tonight could be the night you fall in love
Hold onto your dreams
Remember there is someone
Watching from above
He sees the picture complete
There’s no need to be discreet
Never have to worry about defeat
It’s okay to fall down at his feet 
The watcher will guide you
Once you take a look inside you
The watcher will hide you
When trouble comes to find you
He will stand behind you
I’ve never seen his face
Never looked into his eyes
He’s never said a word
Never told me a lie
He was my spirit guide
Who held me by the hand
Led me through darkness
After day had turned to night
Now I’m no longer on my own
He removed my blindfold
And showed me to the light
Hold onto your dreams
Tonight could be the night you fall in love
Hold onto your dreams
Remember that there is someone
Watching from above
He sees the picture complete
There’s no need to be discreet
Never have to worry about defeat
It’s okay to fall down at his feet
I’ve found my way back home
Not afraid of the dark…
Just don’t feel the same way I used to
The watcher gave me a spark…
Lighted this path that leads to you
The torch has been passed
Now it is my turn to watch over you
Hold onto your dreams
Tonight could be the night you fall in love
Hold onto your dreams
Remember that there is someone 
watching from above
Remember tonight could be the night…
You fall in love
VISITED A PLACE
by Tom Jensen
If you stop and listen...
You can hear a crying earth
With all of life's trivial things
It can be hard to measure worth
I visited a place 
That used to be a forest
A little girl made a puzzled face
No one else noticed the problem
She represented brutal honesty
My God, I thought they'd outlawed it
Yet when she looked back at me
I turned away like I never saw it
I cleared all those trees myself
For you see that I am a logger
As each one falls what grows is my wealth
Now that land's a factory of her father's
If you stop and listen...
You can hear a crying earth
With all of life's trivial things
It can be hard to measure worth
I visited a place
That used to have a garden
Back before the bombs fell down
And all this crumbling decay started
I used to be able to sleep at night
But lately I've been having problems
I used to think things would be all right
There are so many evils out there
And by myself I just can't stop 'em
Do we really think we're going to find
The hands of the clock unwind
If so many people just like me and you
Say we have something 
more important to do
Can't change the world 
by wishing only by trying
If you stop and listen...
You can hear a crying earth
With all of life's trivial things
It can be hard to measure worth
I visited a place… I visited a place…
I visited a place… I visited a place…
I visited a place 
that could have been my Eden
If only I had spoken up 
but unfortunately I didn't
I let myself fall back asleep
Until now I kept my nightmare hidden
I visited a place that no longer exists 
If only we had woken up... 
It would never have ended up like this
UNWINNABLE by Tom Jensen
Culture vultures circling the sky
Off our self-doubt is what they thrive
It’s either the daily dodge 
or else face the grind
Something finds you every time you hide
Given time and sobriety
You can reshape your reality
In this kaleidoscope world
You can clearly see
Sometimes you pay a hidden fee 
On what ya thought was free
It’s not all about material goods
Talking ‘bout a man all alone in the woods
When no one is watching what does he do?
Are honor and integrity 
things that he holds true?
What one does to others
Will someday be done to you
As the company you keep
Will one day keep you
Given time and sobriety
You can reshape your reality
In this kaleidoscope world
You can clearly see
Sometimes you pay a hidden fee 
On what ya thought was free
I bathed in dark energies
All the while absorbing light
Living in between two planes of existence
As the day became my morning 
And the morning my night
Wrong has always been wrong
But now it was alright
When you become freed 
from the disease of please
Is when you begin to build walls 
that only others can see
You take all you need and often times more
An unwinnable game always trying to score
An unwinnable game always trying to score
OVERRATED by Tom Jensen
It's all the same yet so much has changed
Since ten years ago
There's so much I've learned 
but still I've returned
To what I used to know
New strangers appear… 
Old friends disappear
For some reason I've let them go
So simply stated:
My book no one's read it…
My life story nobody knows
Though my cover is quite plain 
My text is full and rich
Be it fact or fiction
Who knows which is which?
I fake my happiness, hold back my tears
So I appear elated
It's best that I hide behind 
these hollow eyes
While I'm intoxicated
It's all the same yet so much has changed
Feeling high, then feeling low
I've visited here and I've traveled there
But what have to show
It's all the same yet so much has changed
Since ten years ago
There's so much I've learned 
but still I've returned
To what I used to know
New strangers appear… 
Old friends disappear
For some reason I've let them go
So simply stated:
Life's too complicated
Tired of telling my tale of woe
It's suddenly so clear to me
That I may never be
What I want to be
So hopefully being the best
Is overrated…….Overrated
NAME IN LIGHTS By Tom Jensen
When you put it on the poster
The shorter the name
The bigger the print
You’re knee deep in posers
Your name in lights
You hit the bigs, yeah
They say there’s bullets 
flying down Broadway
But you haven’t yet heard the news…
You just got to have your piece of cake
And now you want to eat it, too
You wanna be the next Bobby Dylan
Oh, today it’s Johnny Cash
I could tell by your cool sun glasses
Looks like you lost your funny hat
You say your sound’s original 
I’ve never heard nothing quite like that
Well I’ve been around a long time my boy
And I’ve got just one question 
that I’d like to ask…
You’re knee deep in posers
Your name in lights
You hit the bigs, yeah
But what happens when you’re exposed
By both the paparazzi 
And the pigs…oh!
Will you still say: 
You love your life with all the stuff 
You got because of what you said and did?
Or will you finally 
See the light and make right 
For all the crimes that you commit?
When you put it on the poster
The shorter the name
The bigger the print
You’re knee deep in posers
Your name in lights
You hit the bigs, yeah
They say there’s bullets 
flying down Broadway
But you haven’t yet heard the news…
You just got to have your piece of cake
And now you want to eat it, too
SINGER SONGWRITER
by Tom Jensen
I'm a singer... a songwriter...
I'm a lover... and a fighter...
I'm a poet... a word dancer...
I love asking questions…
Though I don't always like the answers 
Still I do it…Try to see through it
Though I know that I don't have to
If you were me what would you do?
Is the question that I now ask you:
I'm a searcher... yes a seeker
I'm both a student... and a teacher
Yet I'm no prophet... nor a preacher
I sit here and I think – 
But that just leads 
to more confusion...
I live to question…Become a believer
Not in self-deception 
but in something deeper
That gives my life meaning…
Even more than rhyming
And that's the reason that I keep on trying...
I try to open minds those that are closed
And uncover what needs to be exposed
By bringing myself up to the brink
Where my head feels like it will explode
Boy... I could use a drink
But that only adds cloudiness 
to this great grand illusion...
I'm a singer... a songwriter...
I'm a lover... and a fighter...
I'm a poet... a word dancer...
I love asking questions 
Though I don't always find the answers 
Still I do it…Try to see through it
Though I know that I don't have to
If you were me
What would you do?
Is the question that I now ask you:
I'm a singer… a songwriter
PUZZLE PIECES By Tom Jensen
The newspapers 
have all gone
Been blown away 
in the wind
The magazines have 
all been bought up
Turned to ads 
for corporate spin
As the radio 
repeats itself
So much so that you 
stopped listening
And TV...
well not much 
has changed... 
It's still the same 
as it's always been
We both look 
at each other
As loneliness 
starts creeping in
Once upon a time 
we like brothers
Now we feel lucky 
just to be friends
All the signs 
during these times
Have been put up 
to lead us astray
So that our views 
become skewed
So that we see 
the world 
in a different way
For our bonds 
are becoming broken
With every smile 
that our face keeps hid
Every hello that 
remains unspoken
This world becomes
a tougher place to live
Because everything 
that for ourselves we take
Becomes something that 
someone else can't give
So we better think twice 
about the choices we make
Before it's too late
to change this state 
we're living in
That's why I'm 
moving and shaking
Been busy trying 
to stir things up a bit
Rearranging this
big jigsaw puzzle
So that 
all the pieces fit
RAT PARK by Tom Jensen
Like the town witch on fire
I’ve become a social pariah
I have lost my desire
To climb up any higher
There’s an energy vampire
Now standing right beside ya
There’s lots to know that you can’t see
Until you crack the code or else find the key
I was in rough shape 
Looking for an escape
Started feeling sick
Must be time to get fixed
Look inside to see what’s broken
Hoping it’s not a hopeless situation
And that I really am worth saving
Since copping is not coping
When stopping isn’t an option
Oh how can I regain my focus?
It seems we cling to our vices
In major times of crisis
And when we’re feeling isolated
Day by day we’re being sedated
In a state of constant bereavement
Because we’ve failed to have our needs met
Hence our only sense of achievement
Is when we depart this world and leave it
Often it is fleeting and lost after a moment
Though you’re taking a beating 
you try your best not to show it
It was when my world was dark
I made some friends at rat park
They said that I could stay there
That there were lots of fun games to play there
In lofts, down slides and on wheels we play
Oh no more boring lonely days
I’ve been growing stronger no longer do I crave
Of thinking, drinking or sleeping away the day
Yeah, some get lost and some get saved
Others find themselves getting thrown away
Some are still searching 
even after all these days
You either make your escape 
or become one with the maze
Remember if God grants wishes 
To all those who kneel and pray
That means that somewhere there’s 
A fallen angel waiting to have his day
REHAB By Tom Jensen
Sometimes I need a good talking to
To set my mind at ease
It's not always good for you
Doing just what you please
When the door is locked
You just need the right keys
Stop peeking through the keyhole
Get up off your knees
Just a glimpse of the whole
Will never do
With the door barred and chained
It's so hard to get through
Like a deer in headlights
Your feet stick like glue
Denial is just another lie
That you believe is true
Yeah...
I've been sedated
My head played with
Medicated
Regulated
And every word they said dictated
I've been questioned and I stated
That everything good I had I've traded
With every step I've walked been baited
A life like mine you begin to hate it
Well, the doctor's in
And he'll take your money
Then when you're not looking
He'll call you funny...
Names behind your back
The nurses are in on it I got a hunch
See their crooked smiles
While they're serving lunch....
Their white gowns
Should be striped with black
You gotta pay the bills
That'll pay for all the pills
They say will cure your ills
While they're raking in the mils
They locked him in the closet
And then they lost the key
Twenty years later
When they finally found it
They finally set him free
Though he looked much older
He looked okay to me
Though he acted much colder
Like we all expected him to be
Rehab - you never come out
The way you came in
Rehab - Get drunk off words
When they take your gin
Rehab - You'll never be the same
Rehab - you'll never go there again
When he gets home he has a drink
Passes out at the kitchen sink
Though his liver's fine his mind is bloated
Just one drink and his head exploded
Rehab - you never come out
The way you came in
Rehab - Get drunk off words
When they take your gin
Rehab - You'll never be the same
Rehab - you'll never go there again
TONIGHT'S MOONLIGHT by Tom Jensen
Orange is the color of the trees
At least the ones that still have leaves
In the coolness of the night
I watch a gentle breath take flight
I watch it vanish out of sight
In the glimmering, glittering moonlight
I'll never shiver in the cold
For now I have someone to hold
In the coolness of the night
The skyward birds are taking flight
Soon I’ll sit holding my new love tight
In the glimmering, glittering moonlight
It’s through your calming eyes
That I become hypnotized
In the coolness of the night
My senses, they are taking flight
It’s you who takes me to new heights
In the glimmering, glittering moonlight
The sun could sleep for seven years
And still I wouldn't freeze
You've become my refreshing
Reassuring summer’s breeze
Sitting here alone without you 
I’m just part of the whole
But when we are together 
I feel both my heart and soul
Anxiously I’m waiting here
My heart, it skips a beat
It seems like an eternity,
These seconds before we meet
Before we reunite…
In the glittering moonlight
Eyes are magic windows
That look inside the mind
Through yours I see us together
Until the end of time
Until the end of time
Beneath tonight's moonlight
TABLE FOR TWO by Tom Jensen
The coffee's on... I used to have coffee with you
But you're gone...
And now I'll have to find someone new
No, I don't like to
Drink my coffee alone
So I'd call and hope that you'd pick up the phone
And we'd talk
Until the kids came home
And we'd talk
Until my coffee it turned cold
And we'd talk some more 
When the kids ran off to play
And we'd talk...
That's how we'd spend the rest of our day
Then you'd cook
With the phone held up to your ear
As you set the table for only two
You knew that I was there...
Even though I was here
(even though I was here)
You knew that I was there
(you knew that I was there)
Even though I was here
(even though I was here)
You knew that I was there
The coffee's on...
I used to have coffee with you
But you're gone...
And now I'll have to find someone new

LIVING LARGE By Tom Jensen
When my fat girl winked at me
I smiled back Immediately
‘Cause I’ve learned to 
like ‘em you see
hefty, chunky, 
bumpy and large
You know when obesity 
Comes running towards me
You know I don’t stray far
Oh yeah…oh yeah….
I’ve grown to love ‘em large
Sure she’s got some 
pie on the thigh
And some rack on the lamb
But at least I found someone
Who loves me for who I am…
Sure she may sag a bed
Or perhaps maybe 
even bend a chair
But it’s really good 
for your head
To know she’ll
always be there…
Sure, she’s got more 
than just one chin
And the girth of 
two full-grown men
But she’s become 
the center of my earth
Not because of 
gravity but because 
I know what true
love is worth…
It’s not weighed by 
pounds of the flesh
Yet it’s so rare that 
Two people mesh
Sure, she fell on me 
the last time we hugged
That’s not how or why 
I got sucked into the 
belly button of love…
I just felt so cozy 
so safe, so warm
And well-protected from
all of this world’s harm
So now I live here in this place
Living off the 
crumbs and gravy 
that runs down 
The sides of her face…
Sure, when she sits 
she somehow expands
But we were meant 
to become one 
in God’s great big plan
Because I finally found a girl
Who loves me for all that I am
So when my fat girl winked at me
I smiled back immediately
‘Cause I’ve learned to 
love ‘em you see
hefty, chunky, bumpy and large
You know when obesity 
Comes running towards me
You know I don’t stray far
Oh yeah…oh yeah….
I’ve grown to love ‘em large
Oh yeah…oh yeah….
I’ve grown to love ‘em large
RAIN by Tom Jensen
Rain...it makes the flowers grow
Rain...doesn't hide what it doesn't know
Rain...leads to floods look out below
Rain...don't say I didn't tell ya so
Pain...it doesn't always show
Pain...fills up what's empty and hollow
Pain...remembers names from long ago
Pain...better when it's dull and shallow
Such a dark and depressing day
Only time will tell if it will fade
All I know is that I'm uncertain
Will it ever lift?
This endless cloud...
This heavy curtain?
A heart once prone to give
Can now no longer trust
I proved you don't need love to live
Yet things inside begin to rust
You can dull your senses to suffering
If you feel you must
If you're like me you've given up on love
Now you settle for lust
I cut my arm only to watch it bleed
Just to see if anyone would take me
I spent a month inside a cold dark room
Just to see if it would break me
I built a house in the middle of the woods
Just to see if I could make it
I spent a whole year inside that cold dark room
Just to see if I could take it
And when it rained...
Sometimes it was heavy
Sometimes it was slow
Rain...when it came
At least I had somewhere to go
When it comes to pain...
You can only take so much before all feeling disappears
You start to grow numb
Soon dreams, reality and your darkest fears
All become one
And when that day comes...
This cold dark room will be waiting here
PERFECT IMPERFECTIONS
by Tom Jensen
Perfect imperfections
Perfect imperfections
I always tried to show 
you the best of me
Sure, I may have lied 
about the rest of me
I should have given me whole
For scars make love real
What we can't control
Is what seals the deal
The sharing of fears
and weaknesses
Helps manifest lovers
from friends
Can lead to holding 
each other at night
When you don't want the day to end...
And I don't want this day to end...
No, I don't want this day to end
Perfect imperfections
Perfect imperfections
I long to see your face
in the rising sun
I long to hold you dear
because you're the one
(You're the one)
I find I found I failed
This great test of me
I should have told you 
all about my history
With this new day
Comes a new way
For you and for me
Yes, for both of us
In this new light
Will come tonight
As we shall have 
So much to discuss
Perfect imperfections
Perfect imperfections
Perfect imperfections
Perfect imperfections
PERFECT WORLD By Tom Jensen
I've spent my whole life
Looking for what I can't see
For what will never be
As the only thing
that can set me free
Is an unknown memory
That somewhere lives
inside of me
Behind a locked door
Perhaps you hold the key?
This set pattern we follow
is just one of their lies
A world lacking communion
only me's and I's
Through competition our
brotherhood has been broken
As no one's acknowledged
these words that I've spoken
Everything, even people
filed by order and rank
Number one built the Titanic
And yet down it sank
There's still time left
to return these ideas
you've been sold
Rise up in rebellion,
could you be so bold?
The whole world's a fight
I can't get no peace
My mind gets disrupted
When it's at ease
The sun and I awake as one
Though it's not my first choice
I'd prefer to sleep in late
I wish I had a voice
Some say if winning
isn't everything then
why keep score?
Those same people
send other mother's
sons to war
I could be like you
or maybe someone else
One step towards them
and one away from myself
Sometimes they see me
and ask me "How I feel?"
I respond,
"Like a hamster
on a rusty wheel"
If you feel trapped like a rat
in this world so cold
Rise up in rebellion,
could you be so bold?
The whole world's a fight
I can't get no peace
My mind gets disrupted
When it's at ease
Watching the sunset
Is a long forgotten art
Feet so busy walking
Separate from the heart
The brokers in their
suits and ties
walking down Wall Street
The ones with their
diamond watches
and their hair so neat
They get so stressed out
playing all their
Wall Street games
Go home and
yell at their wives
forget their own kids' names
All for the love of money
and nothing more
If they call that rich
then you can call me poor
If they tell you the lie
"all that glitters is gold"
Rise up in rebellion,
could you be so bold?
The whole world's a fight
I can't get no peace
My mind gets disrupted
When it's at ease
When was the last time
You noticed the moon?
I'm surprised
You've forgotten so soon
As I climb up the mountains
and float over the sea
I find myself alone
and contented
alive and free
No need to look
at my watch
or punch a clock
And I actually
notice my feet
when I go for a walk
It could be like this
if enough people believe
Just as the wind
blows a flower
I'm planting my seed
There's so much more
than what you've been told
Rise up in rebellion
could you be so bold?
IN THE POURING RAIN
by Tom Jensen
Look into my heart
Look inside your soul
Do you see they are the same?
Have you ever gazed beneath my eyes?
And what I attempt to hide...
Just like a children's game?
My emotions tell me
To tell you
I love you
But my mind is scared of the pain
What if when I tell you
You're my sunshine
It begins to rain?
Since I fell in love with you
I've never been the same
When the world is quiet
I still hear your name
When I am by your side
I feel no pain
I am warm and dry
In the pouring rain
Look into my heart
Take a look into my soul
Can you feel the warmth of a fire...
Burning out of control?
My emotions tell me
To tell you
I love you
But my mind is scared of the pain
What if when I tell you
You're my sunshine
It begins to rain?
Since I fell in love with you
I've never been the same
When the world is quiet
I still hear your name
When I am by your side
I feel no pain
I am warm and dry
In the pouring rain
I could never lose you as a friend
Nor could I break my heart again
My only fear is if I wait
Then maybe it would be too late
Since I fell in love with you
I've never been the same
When the world is quiet
I still hear your name
When I am by your side
I feel no pain
I am warm and dry
In the pouring rain
HIVE MIND by Tom Jensen
Weaponized envy surrounds me
It’s everywhere I can’t break free
Negative energy now grounds me
As I’m watching the world so jealously
My high anxiety stresses me
I’m alone because I fear intimacy 
So averse to pain I constantly retreat
I’m living like a zombie half asleep
Some say this outcome was expected
Look how everything’s grown hectic
Has anyone been left unaffected
By the eye in the sky’s hive mind collective?
Ostracized and placed outside the wall
Is where your fellow heroes fall
With lasting remains 
inside an unmarked grave
True to themselves at least one was saved
Unwilling to play a schizophrenic game
In which fact and fiction 
are one in the same
Where truth and lies 
are often seen on the same side
As enemies become friends 
and your rivals allies
You soon realize there’s a great divide
Between not only us and them 
but both you and I
Leaves you to scratch your head 
and wonder why…
Or maybe be just like them and not even try
And yet that seems like suicide
As you boldly claim, 
“Today’s not your day to die”
You then break out with a great big smile
Yelling “F*%k it all! I’ll walk the extra mile!”
Sacrifice for something 
Bigger than myself
Maybe trade away the day today 
To make tomorrow great for someone else
A flock of sheep can be a dangerous thing
Tended by a shepherd or led by a king?
History has recorded the tales of both
Carrying crosses and swearing oaths
All of that has led us to here
Where honor and faith 
I watched disappear
Become replaced
With aggression and fear
It’s been happening so long
For years and years
Soon feels natural
So that nobody cares
You see me alone and standing here
Lying to myself hoping nobody hears
They gave up on me 
so I gave up on my peers 
I’m the only one who knows…
they’re still unaware
I turned around again…
and there was no one there
HAVE NOT By Tom Jensen
You only live once...
Well at least
you've got your name
You tried to give once...
Got burnt and you
were never the same
Stay away from this one...
You who went from healing
to being one of the lame
Thy will be done...
The only thing you've learned
is how to point the blame
And now your motivation
for waking is slowly stripping
You can sense the tubes
of morphine still dripping
Becoming lost at such a cost
That you wonder just
Why you should go on
Why try to live the dream?
When your imagination is gone?
For once you lose
your inhibitions
The hands around you
mold you into what they want
Shaping and persuading you
Into giving what you haven't got
Leveling society
By changing you from
a have into a have not t

DIRTY THOUGHTS & SHIT THEY DON'T WANT

YOU TO KNOW IS IN THIS M*THAF*CKA********

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

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


HALF TOLD by Tom Jensen
Behind my eyes I can’t let you in
The best I can do is begin again
I let you down and myself to
With all the sh*t I put you through
Been having a hard time 
holding my head up high
Been having a hard time 
sorting truth from lies
I’m not sure where I should go from here
I don’t know if it shows
 but I’m f*cking scared
Seems like everyone I know has disappeared… 
through the years
I’ve been looking for something new
And I don’t know what to do
I’ve been seeking to make changes
Having thoughts that are the strangest
I’ve been hiding from my demons
While pretending I don’t see them
Yet I feel their presence creeping
Around my room when I am sleeping
And I find it quite disturbing
More than a little bit unnerving
When you’re trying to go straight
but keep on swerving
And before it’s too late 
the lesson you are learning
Is you can’t go back and change the past
It catches up with you living fast
As shiny gold turns to rusty bronze
You have to ask yourself 
where’d I go wrong?
As you trace back the last twenty years
Wondering how on earth did I end up here?
Yet you’re unsure 
of whether to laugh or cry
Though you’re not tired 
you close your eyes…
You feel a tear and you don’t know why?
So with retrospect you gaze inside
Never been alone – not with pain and fear
Your travelling companions 
through the years…
Yet you’re scared 
of some the past seeds you’ve sowed
So your conscious carries 
such a heavy load…
I’ve grown tired of these escapades
I’m trying to take back the day
The hands of time can’t be rewound
But I refuse to stay sorrow bound
They say everybody’s got a story
A fall from grace or shining in glory
As of now the tale’s only half told
And my fate awaits just up open the road, yeah!
CLIMBING THE LADDER By Tom Jensen
You'd be wise to take my advice
Before you fall in love
With a fool's paradise
You had better think twice
I don't have any vices
And that's priceless
Considering where I've come from
Everything I once believed in
Was so misleading
I'm lucky I'm still breathing
Considering all the things I've done
I scaled the drug ladder
Straight to the top
Got up so high
I almost couldn't get of
I could not control
The cravings inside my brain
That boy's on the ladder
And he's climbing up again
From cigarettes...
To booze...
To weed...
To speed...
To acid ...
To mushrooms...
To E...
To crack-cocaine
You'd be wise to take my advice
Before you fall in love
With a fool's paradise
You had better think twice
A lot of my old friends
Now sleep in the gutter
Toss an eight ball on the table
And watch them try to kill each other
My d-d-dad's a p-p-pothead
Who s-s-speaks with a s-s-stutter
Just another nicotine fiend
That describes my mother
A raging alcoholic
Yeah, that's my brother
And my sister…well guys
I suggest you use a rubber
There, now I think
I've got everybody covered
If you want to know about somebody
Investigate their friends and family
Even still I’m not quite sure
How I let it happen to me
But I've escaped the demons
And now I'm free
You'd be wise to take my advice
Before you fall in love
With a fool's paradise
You had better think twice
Well if you're hooked
And you're looking to beat it
Listen closely and I'll tell you a secret
If you've climbed the ladder so high
That you duck when planes fly
You can't just jump off or else you’ll die
It's too hard to cold turkey
What was years in the making
Pressure like that
Is like an oven baking
You managed to climb up
So you've got to climb back down
One step at a time
Until your feet hit the ground
LITTLE BIRD by Tom Jensen
Wondering deep inside my own fascination
Gathering all my strength just to open up the door
Close my eyes with a little hesitation
Knowing I’ll never hear your music any more
How could someone so dear to me
Keep me so confused and from the truth for so long?
Whispering of love when she was so near to me
When deep inside she knew it was only a song
Oh little bird
Sing what’s in your heart
Never sing a song 
That should never have been heard
Oh little bird
You turned your trickery into an art
Humming a melody
These ears should have never heard 
Oh little bird
Oh little bird
Sing what's in your heart
Never sing a song 
That should never have been heard
Oh little bird
You turned your trickery into an art
Humming a melody
These ears should have never heard 
Oh little bird
HERE AND NOW 
by Tom Jensen
The time is getting late
Your lifetime is passing
Why should you wait
Is the question you are asking
Paralyzed by fear 
Frozen by the uncertain
Unknowing in how far or near
Is the final curtain
But you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
Yea you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
In the here and now 
Is where heroes are made
In this world we live
We die even villains fade
With our vision to achieve
Great statues are erected
And although we still believe
What is strived for is never perfected
But you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
Yea you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
In the here and now is where we are
You may try to run -- but you won't get far
As the dreams you hold may never be
Just as the light that shines 
you may never see
But you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
No, you can never tell
What lies ahead 
Maybe Heaven, maybe Hell
Only one man sorts the dead
FIGHT FOR PEACE by Tom Jensen Lynette
Come now citizens of the world
Let us knock down this mental wall
Time to let a new flag unfurl
Large enough to cover us all
Endless sea of humanity
That will bridge both the land and shore
Become one global family
Let us not divide anymore
Realize difference makes us great
Opposed to tearing us apart
I swear to you it's not too late
And all it takes is one to start
It could be you who makes a stand
One burning monk can end a war
Wouldn't fight in Iraq...I ran
Didn't deem it worth fighting for
Unlock the door you have the key
Finally let this madness cease
Everybody say it with me
What is my belief? Can’t fight for peace
Come now citizens of the world
Let us knock down this mental wall
Time to let a new flag unfurl
Large enough to cover us all
Endless sea of humanity
That will bridge both the land and shore
Become one global family
Let us not divide anymore
Realize difference makes us great
Opposed to tearing us apart
I swear to you it's not too late
And all it takes is one to start
Unlock the door you have the key
Finally let this madness cease
Everybody say it with me
What is my belief? Can’t fight for peace
SNIPER'S SONG By Tom Jensen
Who am I?
And what are my reasons?
I've got my rifle by my side
And it's hunting season
I'm just another face in the crowd
Waiting to make my next move
Eight A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl
I wonder just how long I can keep my cool
Random is the way it has to be
Can't have any motive or connection
Following after me
One bullet at a time
I write the headlines of the front page
I am God, I am death, I am your old age
At random
Or in seclusion
I am reality
This is no illusion
Who am I?
And what are my reasons?
I've got my rifle by my side
And it's hunting season
I'm just another face in the crowd
Waiting to make my next move
Nine A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl
I wonder just how long I can keep my cool
Go about your business
This sniper will find you
Look over your left shoulder
I am right behind you
You cannot see me
I am in seclusion
Death is reality
I am no illusion
Who am I?
And what are my reasons?
I've got my rifle by my side
And it's hunting season
I'm just another face in the crowd
Waiting to make my next move
Ten A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl
I wonder just how long I can keep my cool
Some may call me crazy
But I don't see it that way
I am just another hunter
And you are all my prey
I could be your neighbor
I could be your best friend
I could be a terrorist
But only when you catch me...
Will you be safe again
GET OUTTA MY HOUSE By Tom Jensen
They say diamonds are a girl's best friend
I guess it's good 
to have something left when
When the feeling ends
When the love is gone
All that's left is a song
You make love to your bong
As quiet as a mouse 
when your loving wife says
"Get outta my house!"
After mistakes have been made
Just as the song said
She threw a vase
Smacked you in the face
And when you said ouch
She made you sleep on the couch
You never saw the writing on the wall
Kept telling yourself tomorrow she'd call
From days to months to years
From happiness to sadness to tears
Your lasting memories 
concern her tight blouse
And the night she said
"Get outta my house!"
The carriage of gold which you both rode
Down along the cove on your wedding day
Somehow became untracked and unhitched
And every one of them horses 
they got up and ran away
After every mistake
followed another excuse
As the chain started to break
She figured what's the use
For when you called for a truce
She challenged you to a joust
On her shield she soon wrote in your blood
"Get outta my house!"
Hearts once ablaze and set afire
Have gradually lost their flame
Dreams once you both together aspired
No longer remain the same
Coals in need of stoking 
have lost all chance of smoking
Leaving each night's watchmen 
pointing blame
The mood grows colder 
as the time grows older
It's time to move south
When you're bleeding from the mouth
Because she sprayed you in the nose
And then smacked you with the hose
Even Smoky the Bear
Knew that the fire's been doused
On the night she said
"Get outta my house!"
They say diamonds are a girl's best friend
I guess it's good 
to have something left when
When the feeling ends
When the love is gone
All that's left is a song
You make love to your bong
As quiet as a mouse
When your loving wife says
"Get the fu#$ outta my house!"
"Get the fu#$ outta my house!"
EX-POEM By Tom Jensen
When someone says your name I duck
Because now I'm careful of whom I trust
Sometimes in love you really get fu$%ed
Sometimes a smiling face
Turns into disgust
Second chances...you got them
But for a second time you hit rock bottom
Third chances... you want them
Still trying to sell me some fruit
That you know is rotten
Calling on the phone
And knocking on the door
So scared to be alone
When you finally realize
That you can't have
What you once had any more
But you brought it on yourself
So why are you so surprised?
Love is dead
It has been beheaded
Get it through your head
We'll never be wedded
My phone rings
But I don't pick it up
I give easy hints
But you won't pick them up
Often there's no voice
On the other end of the receiver
It is true I once worshipped you
But now I'm no longer a believer
When someone says your name I duck
Because now I'm careful of whom I trust
Sometimes in love you really get fu$%ed
Sometimes a smiling face
Turns into disgust
ONE SLIP OF THE KNIFE
by Tom Jensen
Whenever you feel down
When in your mind you feel truly alone
Take a walk among the dead
Read each name upon each stone
If your eyes don't change
Join them in name join them in spirit
Be one and the same
From some pains you can never run away
Though sometimes forgotten -- the scars will always stay
For sometimes it seems like there's no escape
And yet all it takes is one simple mistake
To burn down the mansion you built 
To knock the clown off of his stilts
But don't let your judgment fail you
Know what you're finding before it's found
Don't ever let your cross nail you
A weight so heavy it'll drag you down
And when your inner voice seems to have no sound
And all this pain builds up inside
You are here alone - with no one around
One thought stalks you: there's nowhere left to hide.....
And on the table lies a 12-inch blade.
As night creeps in as black as a spade
Would it really matter?
One slip of the knife?
Would anyone notice -- a worthless life?
She lies on the floor
Her last thought so guilted
Clutching a rose now fallen and wilted
NATURE OF MAN
by Tom Jensen
You set her up for a fall
And she wasn't ready to be let down
You left her feeling so small
She felt like she got put down
For soon she sees
It was never meant to be
As so painfully
She finds out about your history
It's not a name
It's not a face 
It's not a time
It's not a place
It's just the nature of man
She could never understand
It's not a game and no one's to blame
But she feels the shame 
and carries the weight
It's just the nature of man
She could never understand
It's just the primal urge
It's the way of the earth
A thrill can come in many forms
And you can get it just about anywhere
When you go looking for fun
You just might find that fun's someone if you really don't care
And soon she will see
It was never meant to be
As so painfully
She finds out about your ways and means
It's not a name
It's not a face 
It's not a time
It's not a place
It's just the nature of man
She could never understand
It's not a game and no one's to blame
But she feels the shame 
and carries the weight
It's just the nature of man
She could never understand
It's just the primal urge
It's the way of the earth
ANOTHER by Tom Jensen
I’m fired up
I’ve had enough
Of backing down
And getting pushed around
I’m standing tall
I will not fall
I’ll be the wrecking ball
Right through your brick wall
I’m rising up through the ashes
Taking names and kicking asses
Finally the tide has turned
And I’m laying claim to what I deserve
I’ve waited
And found waiting brings nothing
Dedicated
I know I’m bound to find something
Educated
By both books and streets
Frustrated
I can neither find nor keep
The love that’s been missing
Was there and now it isn’t
Was here and then it wasn’t
I placed myself above it
Alone and incomplete 
I’ve been lacking inner peace
All I’m really after 
Is a good night’s sleep
So it’s time to find another
Who will be my lover
To make the circle complete
SMITTY’S ANTHEM (NO TEARS) 
by Tom Jensen
I’ve got no tears left to cry
It just feels dead inside 
And no, I’m not gonna lie
I love to hate you more
Than I ever loved to love you
And it may be 
Yeah, that this one’s on me
But as you see by my misery
It’s all I can do 
To not scream through the roof
There’s a red flag at half mast
You whistle as you walk past
Yes, the graveyard is full of souls
Whose decaying remains fill all those holes
While the blind man with the thirsty ears
Longs for love during his final years
And the middle-aged man 
with a broken past
Clings to lies remembering them as facts
And the bullet proof youth 
takes advice from none
Learns the hard way 
that’s when the troubles come… 
As he looks around not sure what to do
He blames me and I blame you…
Yeah, I was driving
F*cking flying!
Running away as fast as I can
She was lying
Then starts crying
I tell her, “Go find another man!”
Lonely…
Not me…
I’m already making other plans
You try to hold on
But baby I’m gone
Now you know I’m still in demand
This is a new song
I hear you humming along
Got you thinking about clapping your hands…
Since you’ve grown tired
Of living uninspired
Finally my friend you understand…
THIRTY SECONDS By Tom Jensen
I got about thirty seconds…
To get inside your head
So let us save the small talk
For another time instead
Now I have only twenty seconds left…
To sew this little seed to try to
Turn my belief into your belief
How do I get you to see that 
Once you unplug yourself from your TV
You can begin to make a difference
To someone else, yourself and me…
Uh oh…just ten seconds more…
To let you know that there are 
Countless caverns 
Left within your mind
Just waiting to be explored...
PEN AND PAPER By Tom Jensen
Well I'm...
Struggling against the tide
Pen and paper by my side
Feeling great, oh wait, I lied
There's not much I trust
And that sucks, but why cry?
Seems that something's
Gonna have to be sacrificed
To keep on playing this game
To keep on living this life
Release me
From the worldwide 
weight of humanity
Too much for this 
writer to decipher
The many causes of insanity
He pauses...then continues
As he counts his losses...
His inner voice asks him,
"Is it in you?"
To be the leader
when it is so easy to follow
Never need to be the owner
When everything 
can be borrowed
Though you'll never find
Yourself being a loner
You just might be hollow
And it's such a waste of time...
Following the blind
Open up your eyes
Haven't you realized?
'Tis better to lead them...
And still be breathing
Than it is to follow
And be the one 
left bleeding
Never wading in the 
springs of freedom....
And not understanding
These things I speak of
Contemplating something
Hollow and misleading
And it brings many things...
Such as a false disguise 
by a gypsy king
In his lies we 
discover many truths...
Through his eyes 
we uncover his abuse
And his song of sorrow 
so many sing
Well I've got those
Same old blues again
It seems that life is game
You can never win
Cannot change your past
You can't change 
where you've been
It seems you were 
having a blast
But now you don't like
The position you're in
Once they stuck you 
in your caste
You ended up taking 
it on the chin
Now labeled a has-been
You got no friends
Just want it to end
Let your soul be recast
Let us try it again
TRAIN by Tom Jensen
The conductor blows his whistle
Time for the train to leave the gate
As I'm sitting by the window
Wondering why you’re late
I promised myself that you’d be here
Been telling myself that for so long
But as the cars start in motion
I'm thinking maybe that I’m wrong
Maybe you forgot your ticket
Or else on another track
On this train I’m leaving
And I'm never coming back
I said I'd meet you at the station
With suitcases in my hand
But why you never showed up
I'll never understand
You know I paid for your ticket
Even before I bought one for myself
Perhaps you boarded the next car
And sitting with someone else
In all of this confusion
You know I’ve lost my mind
While hurrying for the train
I left my heart behind 
WHAT I'LL DO
by Tom Jensen
I faded silently into the fog
From where I first came
Long before I knew you...
Of your legend or your name
The hardest thing I've ever done
Or that'll I'll ever do
Not because of fear of pain
But because it was best for you
Sure, I miss our conversations
Of course I miss your point of view
But there was little hesitation
Of course I breathed a sigh or two...
But it was best for you
You said you needed time
To reflect in your mind
About the past and the new
And since time is all I have...
I've given it to you
I've never spoken empty words
At least as far as you're concerned
I've never wished these tables turned
I stand behind my promises
My thoughts and my deeds
And my desire to give you 
Everything you need
Whatever you wish
I'll do my best to make
Your wish come true
What you see in all your dreams
I'll do my best
To make those dreams come true
Whatever's best for you...
That is what I'll do
(what I'll do)
Whatever's best for you...
That is what I'll do
(what I'll do)
Whatever's best for you...
That is what I'll do
(what I'll do)
Yeah, whatever's best for you...
That is what I'll do
(what I'll do)
What I'll do
TIME BOMB By Tom Jensen
My boo boo…
My uncle just dropped a bomb (Uncle Sam)
Right through your roof ….
Killing your dad and your mom…. (God Damn)
So when you grow up to be 
Big, brave and strong
When you grow up tell me 
Whose side will you be on?
Tick tock….tick tock….
My nickname is time bomb
My friends are waiting for me to explode
Today was the day I woke up
It was kinda warm – still I grabbed for my coat
And I grabbed my package….
My surprise…oh soon…
Everyone will know…..
See my big grin…
it’s right here…From ear to ear 
right above my chin….
oh oh oh
Oh just what I got
Oh won’t you take a guess?
With this I’ve come all this way 
So many miles West
J.C. sees me on the bus
Asks me what’s under my coat?
I looked back at him and said softly…
Eanie meanie miney moe
I got a present for somebody 
But just who is it – I don’t yet know
I think I’ll bide my time and pen a little rhyme
Let us drive a little further on down the road….
Yeah my nick name is time bomb
And pretty soon I'm gonna explode!
TRAFFIC By Tom Jensen
Traffic...
Caught in traffic
Traffic...
Caught in traffic
Addict ...
Caught in traffic
Addict...
Caught in traffic
Traffic...
Is tragic
False illusion
They work their magic
Tragic...
Believe in magic
Traffic...
Is tragic
One solution...
End the sadness
Tragic...
To see such madness
Burning trees...
Burning trees...
Dropping lit matches
Burning trees...
And fixing black
holes with patches
Burning trees...
Burning trees...
If you're green
It's worse than crosses
One hundred degrees
Two hundred degrees
Burning trees...
Still can't breathe
Can you help me?
Burning trees
People got other causes
And silly me...
Counting up our losses
Traffic... Caught in traffic
WE ARE THE ONES by Tom Jensen 
We are the hunched over old man 
who makes your shoes shine
We are the policemen and women 
who help reduce crime
We are the ones who cook 
and serve your meals at lunch time
We are the bartenders you find 
right before closing time
If you're overworked and underpaid
Just nod your head, say you're doing fine
Pick up your shovel, grab your spade
Just nod your head, say you're doing fine
Get back to work, carry on your trade
Just nod your head, say you're doing fine
Quit complaining about making 
minimum wage
Just nod your head, say you're doing fine
If you're overworked and underpaid
Don't complain just get in line
We are the tracks on which society is laid
Don't complain just get in line
From our broken backs 
millionaires are made
Don't complain just get in line
It starts when you're a little kid 
selling lemonade
Don't complain just get in line
Let us unite from here, there, 
from everywhere
For now is our time to shine
Scream out if your life's defined 
by more than just your career
For now is our time to shine
If you're in your car join our motorcade
For now is our time to shine
Sing the refrain and join our parade
For now is our time to shine
You might drink the wine 
but we're the ones who 
pulled the grapes from the vine
You may own the oil
 but we're the ones that built the pipeline
They might worship you 
but we're the ones who erected the shrine
You may sing the song…
Sing us a song… sing us a song…
But we're the ones who wrote the rhyme
                                           We are the ones who wrote the rhyme                                                                                                        

part two

coming up...

MONITIZATION By Tom Jensen
This time I'm feeling like the criminal
But all communication is subliminal
Sure my treatment might be deferential
'Cause now others notice my potential
They got silver tongues
And their eyes? They're green
They're the best paid talkers
That you've ever seen
You know those who smile at themselves?
Well....now they were smiling at me
They said you could make money for us
If you can trick the rest into thinking
you got something
In which they can still believe
After some pondering
I started responding
And I kindly replied:
Yeah...part of me has died
And I'd like to find that something
I can finally stake my faith and creed in...
But hopefully
it'll either be
mental clarity
Oh gee,
maybe sanity...
or perhaps even freedom
Then maybe
there would be
No more forced insanity
that any amount of money
can pay the fee
For forgetting all about humanity
and human dignity
What has happened to some
I hope it doesn't
happen to me
I'm still trying to find a reason to wake up
Maybe it's to give everything a shake up
Some poor pawn's got to lead the charge
Take a musket ball for society at large
Heck, I'd rather be the host
or the maître d'
Than some bourgeoisie
attendee
To a committee brunch
designed to oversee
Who gets to select
who gets the gold trophy
For having the charity
That spends the most on vanity
I guess we just
fundamentally
disagree
For you see
I don't wanna be
a trainee
to be a trustee
Because I don't agree
Subscribe or believe
In such self-serving fantasies
For sometimes money
Is one's own worst enemy
Just search through
the texts of history
From King Midas to Judas
to Bush and Cheney
When money becomes everything
then I don't want any...
Nah...
I don't want any
LET ME IN By Tom Jensen
Won't you let me in
Into your heart
Into your mind
That would keep me satisfied
To become one 
With your subconscious
And with your soul
You know I'd never try to gain control
Over your feelings
Or your actions
I'd just smile wide
With satisfaction
And I'd help you find the truth
Amongst all these distractions
For I believe we both could use
Each other as a book of matches
When the world seems dark
Or when things look bleak
When we could use a spark
To light a flame for each other to see
Won't you let me in
Into your world
Into your thoughts
As for my own - I've shared a lot
Still I long for yours
Tell me what do you see 
When you look at the world
And when you look at me?
Because I want to view life
Through a second pair of eyes
For sometimes even I need a guide
To show me a new and better path
And to know there's 
Someone standing there
Standing behind me 
When I look back...
For I long to see a light
When the trail starts winding
As the day's becoming night
And the way's not easy finding
My eyes are tired 
And I'm losing sight
Won't you let me in
Into your door when I am cold
Into your arms so I can hold
Onto someone 
Onto something
When I'm spinning out of control
When I'm beginning to feel old
And less reassured than when I was a kid
When I question everything in my life
And what I've done with it
We could share secret thoughts 
That thus far we've kept hid
Won't you let me in...
Oh, won't you let me in?
Won't you let me in?
MY PRECIOUS By Tom Jensen
Two mourning doves rest upon a limb
Begin the day with a praising hymn
To the gods of grass and rain and wind
For it’s what they know 
what they're surrounded in
Contrast that to me who prays for fame
Golden statues and plaques 
bearing my name
Sure it might seem to some a little vain
But it’s what I know what I'm surrounded in
Every sight I am seeing
Every thought I am thinking
Every sentence I am speaking
Everything I've been believing
The roots are imperial
Facts often mytherial
Logic hypocritical
True intentions deceiving
With all of our wealth 
we haven't had much success
Still got people sleepin'
On mattresses made of pavement
Their pillows are our steps
Why is gold so precious?
What makes silver so fine?
Who first chose to call this wealth?
Back in history and time
I wish that I could have told them
Being rich was all for show
Then I would have shown them
There was a better way to go
We could have changed
Our chain-of-being
Into something non - material
Then we could live our lives
For something meaningful
We could've reach new highs
I'm talking spiritual
FALLEN CLOUDS
by William Elmore Tom Jensen
The stories told beside a campfire so many years ago
Still echo through the canyons melt the newly fallen snow
The legend of great heroes now rest upon the stars
Along the craters of the moon lay dark and blemished scars
There's no one here to judge the living
Or sort through the dead
No one here to dictate terms
Nor record what was said
The laws of these lands has not been etched in stone
The king who holds the scepter can still be overthrown
Hanging clouds drift above after the battle in the sky
Fallen soldiers through love and war each one picking sides
So many wandering souls
Set adrift way up high
Listen through the canyons
We hear another deep sad sigh
You can never see their face
They can never find their place
When lightning strikes 
The fire runs wild
Falling raindrops through the sky…
Fallen clouds…
Fallen
DOWNWARD SPIRAL
by Max Weltman Tom Jensen
I've got something on my mind 
so I better just say it
I hear the music in my heart 
but I just can't play it
I feel good inside but I can't explain it
I don't mind when people cry
I don't mind when it's raining
I don't mind when most people die
At least they stop their complaining
I've been led by many people, 
places and things
There's just so much out there 
in which to believe
I've loved many people 
and then had to cut my strings
Just to end up watching 
each of them leave
Have to go and plant another seed
Go and find something to fill the void
For idle time is the devil's toy
For sometimes being alone
Is worse than being unemployed
Sometimes you're Siegfried
Sometimes you're the tiger
And sometimes you're Roy
High above
An angel cries
And down below
Even storms have eyes
What grows in me 
I now despise
Deep inside
another man dies
Blood clot...........
Gunshot
It's all the same
Heartache......
A big mistake
Just part of the game
Weeds growing wild
A saddened child
Just who is to blame?
Another birthday cake
Wear black at the wake
We're so glad you came
It's a vicious cycle
You better stay on your toes
It's a downward spiral
It comes and goes...
RAINYDAY SUNSHINE by Tom Jensen
My life it would have been your shrine
If my ways had been refined
Before I looked into your big brown eyes
I never knew I was blind
‘Twas you who coulda seen me through
Over the only mountain that I’d yet to climb
I have only one path to take...
Try to walk a straight line this time
And it is you I'm still trying to find
My rainy day sunshine
Without you I may be just fine
But with you I'd be so much better 
It’s you, my rainy day sunshine
Who’s my every day valentine
The only one who could ever have changed
Both the seasons and the weather
I hope I’ll be all right in time
I'm praying someday I'm gonna find
You again and you’ll fill all this emptiness inside
We’ll rebuild this broken mind of mine
So now…it’s you I am trying to find
My rainy day sunshine
Without you I may be just fine
But with you I'd be so much better 
Yeah with you I'd be so much better
PARADIGM By Tom Jensen
There's no such thing
As wasting time
When you are trying
To design the paradigm
Can you be the one
Who helps mold mankind?
Behold that role's
Not so well-defined
Yet it truly
Doesn't take a mastermind
To really blow someone else's mind
Crawling through no man's land
Holding onto your brother's hand
Helping him to stay alive
As you both try to survive
In between the battle lines
My job is to show you
All that there is to see
And to tell you that what is
Is not how it is supposed to be
Please believe in me...
I startled a man in the street
Simply by saying hello
He said,
"Hey kid, stop bothering me!"
Doesn't he know
I have a college degree?
And that I've been known
To write a little poetry
And create a new history
By unlocking that old mystery
Through my literacy?
"Can't there be someone else
You can follow?"
That's what he said to me
His brown eyes were hollow
Thus I retreated in sorrow
Just another who failed to see
That he just might have been
Bettered by me
Forgetting we're all one
In the global family
We all evolved from
The same family tree
Used to crawl around on all fours
Just like a monkey or a junkie
Your background
Your skin tone
Your color
Your race...
No one's ever asked your preference
You know you can't choose your face
And as you see your reflection
You realize that in difference
Here lies the root of hate
So let us end this great debate
Over this city-less state...
We can agree to disagree
I no longer wish to participate
Just as equality waits...
So does our fate
DIRT by Tom Jensen
Who’s got the dirt on you?
Or maybe you’ve been keeping secrets from yourself
Do you know who I’ve been talking to?
No it wasn’t her it was somebody else…
Ooh, I see someone’s afraid of sunlight
Stays lurking in the shadowy realm
To only be happy when it’s cloudy
Would seem to me to be trapped in a living hell
Who’s got the dirt on you?
Won’t you whisper just what your little secret is worth
Certainly no one could have deserved this
Never seen you look so nervous - your eyes darting back and forth
Well sure we all make mistakes
Yet this one was so easy to trace
You didn’t look guilty just heavily disgraced
That would best describe the look on your face
Who’s got the dirt on you?
Has anyone offered to cut you a deal?
Or are they just letting out the line?
Let you run a little knowing they hold the reel
STATUS QUO WOES By Tom Jensen
Too many buildings, not enough sky
Can't solve your problems
Until you stop the lies
What about the children?
They're the ones being sacrificed
Better to leave 'em alone in the wilderness
Than to raise them to be crucified
Got to make it better than this
Do more than just criticize
We're wasting away
A little more everyday
Sometimes the truth is in the mirror
Gazing back into your eyes
You see the picture becoming clearer
And you find a great big surprise...
So that's why you got to know
When to go with the flow
Keep the status quo
And then to know when to resist
Know when to raise a fist
When to cease and desist
And how to buy an alibi
Too many people to keep 'em all in line
Many better men and women
Than me have spent their lives tryin'
To either relive, rewrite,
Forget or regret history
Yet dying before finally finding
And sighing because no one answers
Keep on opening doors
Without knowing what's behind them
And I don't want to be another sheep
Being led to the slaughter
For I've learned through getting burned
That some people's priceless advice
Really is worth less than a quarter
You say you didn't know any better
It used to be the story of my life
Funny now how some things
Are more important
Than you first thought them...
As you can only aspire to fly higher
Once you've hit rock bottom
So that's why you've got to know
When to go with the flow
Keep the status quo
When to hope and pray for it
When to say it
Know when to resist
Know when to raise a fist
And when to cease and desist
When to let it roll right off of your shoulder
Or else when to get pissed
'Cause you know you can't live like this
Where you get just one shot
And you missed!
Too many obstacles
That you get sucked in by the tentacles
Keep on walking in circles
Keep on praying for miracles
Believing that you are spiritual
While searching for an oracle
Be it mental, physical, biblical or historical
Got to fight this feeling
Can't give in to all the lying and stealing
I've walked the dark path
Now show me to the light
Tired of all the low-down
Dirty double dealing
Sometimes men and women of virtue
Have got to stand up and fight
When we know that we're right
Can't simply close your eyes
Cut your ties and end this plight
Can't simply send it back
What has gone off track
Better fight for more
Than just your own life
Because this is like day and night
Can't flick a switch, can't turn off the light
Still have to face it in the morning...
The fire that still keeps on burning
But at least you're learning....
Yeah, you're still learning
TWISTING THE KNIFE By Tom Jensen
When you wanna lash out 
And leave long lasting scars
You search deep within yourself
And remember who you are
For with your sharp tongue
You know which words will hurt the most
As your vision becomes an apparition
After you've disappeared like a ghost
Sometimes it's not whatcha say
But whatcha don't 
When you know whatcha wanna do
And yet you won't
Sometimes walking away 
Without a single word said
Just might say the most
And be best cure for your head
Severing the ties 
Without twisting the knife
Might be the hardest thing
You've ever done in your life
NOW BOARDING
by Tom Jensen
Whenever I see a sign
That says "now boarding"
My heart begins to ache
And my body it starts hurting
The people have spoken and are speaking:
My oars are broken and my boat's leaking
Of course the rudder's bent
Fallen mast mis-shapen
I hold no more reservations
'Bout myself safely escaping
I lost the motor...it's a mile back under water
Yet the course I steered to here
It was completely chartered
I'm afraid I've never been good
Great or well-led in navigation
My nickname at a young age was
Captain Head Scratching Hesitation
(haha)
It's well-earned and much deserved
As I waited (waded) in the water
Yet never walked the shore
That's when I'd go sailing inside my mind
As I'd crash into icebergs every single time
Sure I break things... But at least they're mine
The passengers safely bail
I'm the one laying it on the line
My name will never be Jonah...
Not afraid of being a big white whale
Thus here I sit in this boat all alone
With no one to share or tell this tale...
Whenever I see a sign that says "now boarding"
My heart begins to ache and my body it starts hurting
Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo ooh hoo hoo
SOMETHING IN MY GENES By Tom Jensen
I've got the life juice
Flowing inside me...
Sometimes
Other times
It's been denied from me
I think that depression
Is starting to kick in
Gotta find myself a room
And get checked in...
Quick!
Gotta get it together
Or else just keep on getting sick
Boy I'm in the mix
Into getting my fix
Fu$% being rich!
I'm just another hypocrite
Who talks and talks
But it's just more sh$%
So you learn to live with it
Become a walking regret
Or else a song-writing poet
Boy life sucks
Don't you know it?
I'm a druggie
I'm an alki
I'm a nicotine fiend
I'm a loser
An abuser
Do you know what I mean?
What I've done
Can't be undone
Oh, the things I've seen
This monkey on my back weighs a ton
A weight so heavy I cannot out run
There must be something in my genes
This monkey on my back weighs a ton
A weight so heavy I cannot out run
There's always something in my jeans
Just as the sun comes up
My head goes down
I pick up the paper
And then I put it down
I may waste my life
But at least it's just my own
You won't read about
Any killing sprees from me
When you get home
I may be on page fifty-six
Another kid, another lesson
Another druggie looking for his fix
Wrong place, wrong time
Got bagged for possession
In the home of the brave
And the land of the free
You get to choose
Your own obsession
I'm a druggie
I'm an alki
I'm a nicotine fiend
I'm a loser
An abuser
Do you know what I mean?
What I've done
Can't be undone
Oh, the things I've seen
I've always got something
To write about
I always find myself in a tunnel
In which I can't get out
As the light keeps getting
Dimmer in the distance
Every night I'm on the card
For the heavyweight bout
I once was strong
But now I'm beginning
To have my doubts
I think I may be in need
Of some assistance
ENTIRELY by Tom Jensen
When tragedy struck my family
I began my decent into insanity
It started to creep
Slowly week by week
And before too long
I found I couldn’t sleep
Never again alone
No, not with these fantasies
As I lost myself
To the worst version of me
That kept holding on
Until I couldn’t break free
And by the time I realized
What was happening to me
I became someone else …
Entirely
DEEP SEEDED
by Tom Jensen
I've been plowing these same fields for nearly thirty years
And ain't no great visions ever magically appeared
Just the sight of me standing here
Alone with my regrets and all of my deep seeded fears
There's so much work to be done
Once the summer comes the engine hums as the tractor runs
Seven days a week I'm out here in the sun
Back in my familiar place
Even though a new season has begun
It keeps the family fed
It's a dependable trade
It's the choice that I've made
For the last three decades
I've been living the same exact day
Never followed through on the things I say
Year by year my childhood dreams 
have faded further away
And now the sky is beginning to turn gray
Slowly my fields of wheat are turning into hay
All those conversations I've had with myself
Are becoming hearsay
This is the price I pay for being too afraid
I let myself down and now I feel betrayed
I've been plowing these same fields 
for nearly thirty years
And ain't no great visions ever magically appeared
Just the sight of me standing here
Alone with my regrets 
and all of my deep seeded fears
Looking back...
I think I've overextended my stay
I never merged onto the freeway
I never headed out onto the highway
My car just sat in the driveway
DISCARTES by Tom Jensen
I hear whispers from the lost souls of man
Questioning everything that I think that I am
So I do not think therefore I am not…
Part of the problem or solution
Since my character no longer
Plays any role in the plot
It is then my mind reminds me
I have no memory
And there was something else…
But I forgot
Today, what is not needed it gets deleted
Just as in ancient times
When translated, annihilated
Just meant defeated
No, not just the soldier in retreat
But his dog, his flag and his whole family
I hear whispers…
Voices unknown to me
Hence I fall back into a dream-like state
Looks like everything will have to wait
Living in a dream…
To wake up one must fall asleep
Returning to reality…
Close your eyes as the same process repeats
Peace!
RIVAL by Tom Jensen
Once the whole gets halved
There ain’t no going back
Yeah, it all went to hell real fast
Republicans and Democrats
As this nation is facing
The shattered aftermath
Our fate has been placed
In the hands of a psychopath
And asking a leader to lead
When no one agrees
Leads to blunders it’s a wonder
We’re all not deceased
The best way to start a fight
Part the middle between left and right
Just stir the pot to get some action
Then do what you want during the distraction
Yes the method is tried and true
Throughout history it’s been used
Safety’s in numbers not division
This fractured state will be our prison
So with this knowledge at our disposal
It’s time to act local while thinking global
We’re all allies in the struggle for survival
You’ll die for your brother…
While I’ll die for my rival
VIOLENCE IS THEIR SOLUTION
By Tom Jensen
Well it's time for me to swallow
My prescribed medication
While I'm forced to listen to
Their unspeakable dictation
Their twisting tongues
That speak of the wrong information
Well-ordered insanity
Also known as formal education
And while I'm waiting
For the next step in evolution
I say my prayers while
Violence is their solution
I was taught to believe
That the flag was a guide to inspiration
But I never enrolled
In blind patriotic dedication
My stomach would be queasy
When I felt the jittery vibration
Of the weapons on the firing line
As I manned the battle station
They order me to guard the bunker
Which represents the institution
They reload my gun because
Violence is their solution
You lost a lot of leaves
On your family tree for this nation
During the fall they all fell
Along with the laws of segregation
Nowadays times have changed
But there still lies the same temptation
Not every name has been signed
On the emancipation proclamation
Some would cower in a corner
Before demanding a new constitution
But while I give my peaceful demonstration
Violence is their solution
Seems as if everywhere you turn
Leads you to increased aggravation
You try so hard to blaze a better path
But it's branded deviation
They want you to believe
It's all about the money
And worry about inflation
But my friends there are some things
From which you cannot take a vacation
Once it's piled up past the hills
You just can't hide all of this pollution
As I daydream of how 
not to kill with spilled oil
Violence is their solution
If you want to rape Mother Nature
Then watch their demonstration
You can destroy it all
For a quick thrilling sensation
Just an inch or two of elevation
Too late to resort to masturbation
For Mother Nature 
wasn't meant for prostitution
As she screams help...
Violence is their solution
EMPTY BOTTLE By Tom Jensen
I know you're thinking
Pondering tomorrow
I finally quit drinking
Drowning in my sorrow
Saved myself from sinking
I put down the bottle
When it started leaking
Some things you only borrow
So I know what you're seeking
Who do you lead...whom do you follow?
We both know of what I'm speaking
What do you need and what is hollow?
Do you see your reflection
In an empty bottle?
You don't know where you’re going
Only God knows where you’ve been
But the river keeps on flowing
And the part of you unknowing
Always goes wading on in
Signs read danger, don't fall in
Or you don't know the trouble you're in
Water so sweet it tastes just like gin
Take a dip and be baptized
In the pool of sin
Yet this path you walk
Wasn't chosen all on your own
As the thoughts you think are so deceiving
Everyday drifting farther from home
Now you regret the day 
you thought of leaving
The hard stuff's in the freezer
The 30 pack's in the fridge
The troubles of the world are building
Which way to the bridge?
You don't know where you’re going
Only God knows where you’ve been
But the river keeps on flowing
And the part of you unknowing
Always goes wading on in
Signs read danger, don't fall in
Or you don't know the trouble you're in
Water so sweet it tastes just like gin
Take a dip and be baptized
In the pool of sin
I know you're thinking
Pondering tomorrow
I finally quit drinking
Drowning in my sorrow
Saved myself from sinking
I put down the bottle
When it started leaking
Some things you only borrow
So I know what you're seeking
Who do you lead...whom do you follow?
We both know of what I'm speaking
What do you need and what is hollow?
Do you see your reflection
In an empty bottle?
ROCKING THE WORLD by Lai Youttitham Tom Jensen
Stadium full of screaming teens
Hot young things in cut-off jeans
You're on the front page of magazines
And you find yourself...
Driving the media machine
A hot shot on the social scene
This reality was once just a dream
Status whore…such a libertine
When you find yourself... in the back seat of limousines 
Everywhere you go... it always seems as though...
Everybody knows your face and name...
They call you a rock n' roller
Because you're rocking the world
You're stopping traffic
Without crossing streets
Smiling face on everyone you meet
Full house with no empty seats
People pay you money
Just to hear you speak
Everywhere you go...
it always seems as though...
Everybody knows your face, your name
They call you a rock n' roller
Because you're rocking the world                                                      t

****WARNING EXPLICIT LYRICS, ADULT THEMES,

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

REST IN POWER by Tom Jensen
I love you to learn you
Just to hate you and burn you
You see I got these demons 
Who don’t deal well with feelings
When betrayed by your senses
You learn to build up defenses
And to hide in dark places
Drawing lines no one traces
Blazing a trail no one follows
A space empty and hollow
Where the dreams of a child
Would guide you through to tomorrow
Yet now the future looks bleak
As you’ve found what you seek
But it’s alien and strange
Since your outlook has changed
You used to want to save the world
Now you just wanna f*ck the girls
Letting your id eat you alive
The super ego closes his eyes
They’ve separated you from your mind
And your heart from your soul
It’s time to wrestle back control
Or become someone you don’t know…
As you passed a stranger out on the street
Thought to yourself, “He looked a lot like me…”
Well not who I am but who I used to be
Those are two different people entirely
To rest in power not peace
You gotta keep feeding the beast
And once you catch the disease
You no longer wanna break free
That’s when you know 
Got a tiger by the toe
But stop lying to yourself
You want them to let go
STAY BIG by Tom Jensen
My hate is filled with heart
My blood is in my art
My tears blotch out the page
This ink confines my rage
Sometimes I’m not myself
F*ck you go f*ck yourself!
Hell yes I fake Tourette’s
Have fun no one’s upset
Create the world you seek
With eyes and style unique 
Arise brand new each day
Play hard or else don’t play
I frame it… I hang it
I put it up for sale
I make it… I take it
Because I know they’ll
Always come back for more
When they know what they’re looking for
It sure is fun to go explore
Who wouldn’t wanna be out on tour?
I’m making my living 
With no f*cks given
Standing around the corner 
There’s a line full of women
All waiting for the star – of the show
All wondering where you are – they wanna know
Oh where could he be hiding?
What kinda car will he ride in?
It must be so exciting
Pick a party you’re invited
Everybody wants to know what you’re saying
Anybody you wanna bed we know you’re laying
You got every card in your pocket you could play, kid
There’s no way you’re gonna fade you gonna stay big!
TOM'S PSALM By Tom Jensen
If you believe in lies
Then your hands are tied
Self-crucified
You are still chained
In elders so wise
From them the truth still does hide
Walk in trance hypnotized
Nothing has changed
And their sermons surmise
In faith there is no compromise
Yet the same old problems
Still have not been rectified
Today and yesterday
They are still the same
The day the savior does rise
They shall all stand by his side
Though countless have died
For their religion's name
But what does it symbolize
When the only hope to unify
Is for laws of science to be defied
As the earth's engulfed in flames
And what does it signify?
That man has yet to visualize
Every instrument
Of the orchestra harmonize
When every piece is on stage?
SLIP STREAM By Tom Jensen
Enter this virtual world
Take an unguided tour
We'll find a cavern in your mind
That has yet to be explored
We'll cause a ripple in the water
Of intuition, space and time
Won't fear a tear in the fabric
Only scared of a flaw in the design
We can take a trip
Slip down stream
Feel free to follow me
Or I could follow you
Just take one of these
You know what to do
Become anyone you want
Let that become the truth
Free yourself from all distraction
For time ain't on anybody's side
I can see by your reaction
The sense of panic in your eyes
There's only shame in me asking
If you need your place to hide
Just take one of these
And you know what to do
Become anyone you want
Let that become the truth
I see a ripple in the water
Or it could be space and time
A small tear in the fabric
I see a flaw in the design
Just take one of these
And you know what to do...
Let everything you see
Become shiny and new
LET ME LIVE THE DREAM by Tom Jensen
I woke up… My mind was racing
When my feet hit the floor… 
they soon started pacing
Craving the apple I was once tasting
Footsteps to the past I began retracing
Running from old enemies I once was facing
All the while believing I was escaping
I never show my weakness 
even when I am breaking up inside
The only thing stronger than my ego 
is my foolish sense of pride
Sometimes I sacrifice all I've made
To live within a lie
The only cross to which I'm bound
Is burning me alive
Oh my, my, my, my... let me live the dream
Of escaping the demons... alive and unseen
From the blaring whispers of compulsion
Very few mortals can hide
Freedom is just another word for failure
For all those who have lost 
when they've tried
For the key to unlocking the mind
is different
To each be them young or old
In trying to reach what they're searching for
Yet have never been able to hold
Oh my, my, my, my... let me live the dream
Of escaping the demons... alive and unseen
I tried staying with my own kind
I tried swimming within my own mind
But so slowly the path unwinds
Though I keep following what I hope to find
Even when life looks grave 
as you're running out of time
Could reality ever match my dream?
Will this nightmare ever end?
Will a new day ever begin?
Can I learn to make myself whole again?
To live without and change within?
Oh my, my, my, my...
let me live the dream
Of escaping the demons...
alive and unseen
Out of sight can mean out of mind
Yet what I am running from 
is never far behind
Once distant memories 
now mirror the present
As the shadowless clock 
has stopped telling time
No, you can't escape the voices
Echoing inside of your ear
As thoughts become desires
Speaking all too loud and clear
Although you may bow your head
While pretending not to hear
When the calming silence is gone
You know what is there
Oh my, my, my, my...
let me live the dream
Of escaping the demons...
Alive and unseen
LET DOWN
by Tom Jensen
Who’d have thought 
that a pair of faded blue jeans
Could bring me to my knees?
Who'd have thought that after I let her in
She'd do just what she pleased?
An angel on the outside 
The devil within
I would soon discover
Well I guess they're right 
It just goes to show
You can never judge a book by its cover
I've done something I've told myself 
that I would never do
Before you proved your love
 I put all my trust in you
I believed your lies
And dried your eyes
And to my surprise
You took me for a ride
A ride I'll never take again
Can you see me frown?
As you're leaving town
The truth's been found
You spun me around
You let me down again
Such a beautiful smile yet eyes full of deceit
You said that you loved me 
All the while 
you were lying through your teeth
I'd like to follow you 
telling everyone you see
Be careful of this girl
Look what she did to me
Who'd have thought 
that a pair of faded blue jeans
Could bring me to my knees?
Who'd have thought that after I let her in
She'd do just what she pleased?
An angel on the outside 
The devil within
I would soon discover
Well I guess they're right 
It just goes to show
You can never judge a book by its cover
I've done something 
I've told myself that I would never do
Before you proved your love 
I put all my trust in you
HEARTSTRINGS By Tom Jensen
I don't need you for inspiration
Nah, I got plenty of that myself
I'm not looking for someone to save me
Nah, you can't leave that to anyone else
I'm was just looking for someone 
to keep me and love me
For all I am....for my better or worse
I wasn't looking for someone 
to take me and leave me
Leaving me feeling this angry, helpless remorse
As I see you sitting in the chair
Staring back at me
With a cold and lonely stare
I will remember for eternity
I finally want back
What's been taken
What you stole
But I will never get that till I regain control
I am just another trophy
Collecting dust on your mantle shelf
Something that you've taken
That once belonged to someone else
Now as I feel forsaken
I criticize my useless self
Plucking at my heartstrings
Is the music you play only for yourself
Never a thought for someone else
MATCHES TO BURN by Tom Jensen
(for a female vocalist)
I need a reason to sing
I can’t think of anything
And I’ve been thinking a lot
About a world not filled
With things you could see
But of all those things
I dreamed to be
So long ago that I forgot
When down memory lane…
I took a stroll
I re-lived mostly pain…
and now that pain…
It takes its toll
I’ll make a promise to you
And then I won’t show
Yeah, I’ll always leave you guessing
With your insides now exposed
While you’ve still yet to learn your lesson
Ahh… but at least now you’re feeling the cold
Though still… you keep on pressing
But with this new insight you now behold
You see the sun now glistening off of the snow
If you listen closely then you’ll learn what I know
It takes ten seconds now to see
What took me twenty years to learn
Ain’t no paper worth nothing to me
To a girl… With matches to burn
To a girl... with matches to burn..
MULTIVERSE by Tom Jensen
The only thing real is this moment
So get up on it
And be a proponent
F*ck the trophy for participation
You want to finish in first place 
At the end of the race?
With time you’ll find 
The seeds were already sewn
By you in your mind in the very beginning
The day you stop dreaming 
Is the day you stop achieving
And start living down to expectations 
With nothing left to believe in
Through the years 
Many infidels have raised hell
Trying to make things even
Leaving us in tears 
As more victims fell 
To some godless heathen
If you visualize grilled cheese
That could lead to world peace
But if you envision a barbeque
That just might be the end of me and you
Once you take control 
Over the power within your mind
You can create the best possible version
Of all outcomes desired
MEET MICHAEL HAWK By Tom Jensen
I called up this girl who
was going to see me tonight
She told me she was going to
a play with Michael Hawk…
Have you ever
met Michael Hawk?
I heard all his friends
call him Mike
He’s real friendly with the ladies
There’s something
about him they all like
Have you ever
met Michael Hawk?
He’s what they call
a real standup guy
He is over
six feet tall
And almost two feet wide
Michael Hawk might look
a little strange to you
Because his head is purple
His belly is white
And his feet are blue
He’s a memorable man
that Michael Hawk…
He always leans when he walks
He only wears one sock
And he never, ever talks
All the girls fall in love
with Michael Hawk
They say he’ll fit you
like a glove
that Michael Hawk
And that no man rises above
Michael Hawk
Yes, he’s very well
thought of that
Michael Hawk
Come along with
Michael Hawk
Won’t you dance
with Michael Hawk?
Hum a song to
Michael Hawk
Wrap your hands
around Michael Hawk
But never laugh
at Michael Hawk
And never turn your back on
Michael Hawk
Or you might get
slapped by Michael Hawk
For he’s very rash
that Michael Hawk
Have him for breakfast
Michael Hawk
Make him supper
Michael Hawk
Introduce him to your
sister and mother
Michael Hawk
But not your father or brother
Michael Hawk
He reminds me of a pirate,
Michael Hawk
For he’s only got one good eye
He’s made many girls go blind
Other girls quiver
and other girls cry
If you ever come across
Michael Hawk
Don’t hesitate to
give him a kiss
Just so long
as you don’t mind
The slight taste
of salt upon your lips
CLEAN WIPE TO THE SLATE by Tom Jensen
As you're getting sleepy in your bed
Busy staring at the walls
My head is still spinning
As I'm pacing up and down the halls
I just need one more line only one more verse
And when I finally fall asleep it only gets worse
Yea lately I've been losing faith
Been having trouble thinking straight
What I thought I'd found has been misplaced
What I've been giving out
Well, I finally got a taste
When I woke up I couldn't see my face
Time to take a clean wipe to the slate
The past has now been erased 
No right path to follow
No lines left to trace
I see no yellow lines on the highway
I've done it your way now I'll try it my way
There's a road not yet paved in stone
No one left to follow when you're alone
No shepherd to guide you
No shadows to hide you
No need to ask directions 
When you're heading home
Every sign you've seen has led you astray
When you stuck out your thumb 
no one was going your way
The highway you stand upon
Winds so violently and looks so long
You've just gotta be strong
Keep writing and singing your song
Time to take a clean wipe to the slate
The past has now been erased 
No right path to follow
No lines left to trace
I see no yellow lines on the highway
I've done it your way now I'll try it my way
CRYSTAL BALL By Tom Jensen
Indecisiveness has got a hold of me
Should I stay, should I go?
The high road, the low road
So many forces
That push and that pull
They act as they will
And they're acting now still
Just one of the choices
That I have to make
How much more can I take?
Couldn't sleep
For the last month and a half
Need a crystal ball
Because I shattered the glass
Was it half full or half empty?
But I can get it refilled they got plenty
Or at least they tell me so
But just where it is I still don't know
Maybe around the corner
Maybe half-way around the globe
Still feeling like a foreigner
Living the life of Job
I don't feel disgraced
I'm just losing my faith
Finding more questions than answers
As the hour's getting late
PARDON ME By Tom Jensen
I just got a pardon from the president
Because I did not admit 
to what I knew they'd submit as evidence
And I just made a friend 
who will do what it takes
And be there to the end 
or at least until he fixes mistakes
I think we may have just set 
a new precedence
Since it is so clearly evident
That politics is no place for benevolence
When we can't trust the president
That means we can't trust the government
Who often sells out its residents
Giveth and taketh on false precedents
Since some just take whatever they need
With greed...
what's important is the numbers on
Not the names of dead presidents
I have come to believe
Not everyone is entitled to be free
Because a handful of money is all you need
To put people in your pocket to guarantee
That when trouble comes it'll let you be
When you buy a judge 
You can throw out the jury
The system's become corrupt
Manipulated through misdeeds
Someone should do something
'Cause there's a document I've seen
Saying they're vetting Ann Coulter 
and Satan
To run together in 2016
Just remember that
Every candidate has a rhyme
Around election time
Saying we'll do just fine
If you wave this sign
Standing on a pedestal
Waving a fake gold medal
Just rubbing on their crystal ball
Saying they've been here and there
They've seen and done it all
Only after the choice has been made
And you've dealt them the ace of spades
While thinking that politics isn't a game
And you haven't been played
But finally after all the promises 
have been made
You found that the scale of honesty
Has never been weighed
As they've forgotten all that they've said
Speaking this while doing that 
They placed one foot on the platform
And then they fell flat
The train they boarded straight to the top
The engine failed; the track got derailed
And when the conductor was jailed
The bail they collected was never mailed
Yet every opinion they stated
Was quoted as fact
Saying that proof was in the eye
And they said it with such tact
Even though no
Evidence ever backed
But numbers can lie
Once you've developed the knack
So everyone signed on the dotted line
Without ever reading the pact
And now you're complaining
About paying so high a tax
Once you sign a deal with the Devil
There's no turning back
However, there's a new path unpaved…
So it's up to me and you
We've been taught to
follow the leader
Sadly, it's true
It can't be that way anymore
Time for us to settle the score
Start pushing the stale old values aside
No more can we run and hide
The government that rules us
practically everyone is a liar
Words catching on
And now it's spreading like a fire
They've talked and talked
Talk, talk, talk 'til they're blue in the face
Just follow me and I'll show you the way
Going to Washington D.C.
Time to see the true enemy
But beware...for their twisting tongues 
will tell you it's me
Don't listen to them if you want to be free
Join us - every color and race
Speed up! - We've got to quicken the pace
Million man march - huh – 
multiply that by ten
History, we're going through it again
Do it for the homeless you meet
Do it for the children on the street
Think about the hungry, the ill, and the sick
We'll dismantle the system brick by brick
Tell it straight 
and don't beat around the Bush
We tried to pull now it's time to push
It's nine for them and one for us
It's their turn to sit on the back of the bus
The politicians look us right in the eyes
While their words are full of lies
So it should come as no surprise
What happens to them after they die
They care not for us only I
They tell me, "Well, just because..."
When I ask why
They say,
"They learned it from their peers...
That true honesty has disappeared."
So true has come our biggest fears
There's no one left who really cares
I'm going to give each one a mirror
So they can see what we see
Then I'm going to run for president
So I can show what's evident
I will answer questions truthfully
And you can think what you want of me
I'll hide behind no mask at all
Not forced to sit I will stand tall...
I'll be myself and wear no veil
With my left hand on the bible:
"I smoked pot and I inhaled!"
COMPLICATED SUBJECT By Tom Jensen
It's such a complicated subject...
this matter of war
Traces back to the beginning of time...
if not before
Intertwined with our destiny
Throughout all our history
As the fate of humanity
Rests within this legacy
The true nature of man...
is not one of understanding
to say the least
The way it now stands...
This violence and bloodshed
shall never cease
There are four words
That'll never be
Our one sole belief
We come in peace
There are four words
That make me nervous
When I hear someone speak
We come in peace
For it seems to me
We'll all eventually
Suffer some kind of defeat
All genders and races
All colors of this crayon nation
All beliefs and creeds
Yet when we fight today
The battle cry is not Semper Fi
It's bleed green for corporate greed
Please take my eyes
Or take away these things
That I don't want to see
Still we try to perceive
all that's unperceivable
Still we strive to conceive
in what's inconceivable
Still we struggle to believe
in the unbelievable
Still we attempt to achieve
What is unachievable
It's such a complicated subject...
this matter of war
Traces back to the beginning of time...
if not before
Intertwined with our destiny
Throughout all our history
As the fate of humanity
Rests within this legacy
BREAKING HER HEART
by Tom Jensen
Your heart breaks with every tender touch
You think to yourself
You don't love her all that much
The moon and the stars
She'd give them all to you
So with a tear in your eye you continue...
Skin so soft and light brown hair
She stares into your eyes without a single care
You have become her shelter from the rain
Yet while she's filled with love you're filled with pain...
Reality screams into your ear
So you try to collect yourself 
You try and calm your fears
How long can you play this game?
How much longer can you simply hold your shame?
Life is anything but a fairy tale
And before you pass sometimes you fail
They say it's better to have loved and to have lost
Then never have played so we pay the cost 
Every passing day you sink in sand
Becomes even harder when she holds onto your hand
You can't be the one who shatters her dreams
So you make her believe everything is as it seems
It's never easy when the time has come
It's never easy but you had your fun
Do not feel sorry for what you've done
For after the rain soon comes the sun
Life is anything but a fairy tale
And before you pass sometimes you fail
They say it's better to have loved and to have lost
Then never have played so we pay the cost
HURTING HER KNEES AND PRIDE 
by Tom Jensen
My girlfriend's house...
Her parents are home
They don't like me much...
So we're never alone
I'm sitting on the sofa...
And she's looking so fine
We've been dating so long...
Don't they know she's mine?
They think she's so pure...
And that she can wear white
An innocent girl...
A parents' delight
I'm so sorry...
She didn't tell you what's right
Like what she does...
When she spends the night
Because of these lies...
By your law she abides
Because of these lies...
In the bushes we hide
Because of these lies...
We make love outside
Because of these lies...
We take the car for a ride
They say what's unknown
Doesn't hurt you
And that the truth shall set you free
But if they only knew what I've taken
They'd take you away from me
This is our little secret
So we'll play our charades
We'll keep singing our song
Until the music fades
Come for a ride and I'll take you away
It's finally our turn
In this game that we play
Yeah I'm feeling good
I really got it tonight
Let's drive somewhere
And turn off the lights
Love has its prices
And love has its costs
I'll unbutton your shirt
While you watch out for the cops
Though she can't by wine
She can still buy smokes
Is she old enough to love?
Don't ask her folks
Their old school values
And their old school style
Today I'd place 'em
In an old school pile
Because of the old ways...
They try to keep me away
Because of the old ways...
They never let me stay
Because of the old ways...
This is the game we play
Because of the old ways...
They think we'll wait 'til our wedding day
When she's at college
They never see me at all
And they never hear us rattling the walls
But when she's home
In the window I crawl
Better not get caught...
I hear that dad's gotta gun
I smoke a pack a day...
Don't get far when I run
Too great the risk...
I don't wanna get caught
I think it's time to head
Out to the parking lot
Yeah, out in the corner
And in the shadows we hide
She says,
"It hurts her knees...and it hurts her pride"
NEVER EXPECT IT By Your Wife Tom Jensen
My wife’s a b*tch… That’s why she gets hit
When I get upset… I just raise my fist
She knows it well… She gave me hell
Then down she fell… Now she ain’t well
My wife’s a b*tch… That’s why she gets hit
When I get upset (click sound)… I just raise (bang!)
(pause)
My husband’s dead… I shot him in the head
That’s the last time I said… Now the floor’s all red
Now I’m going off to bed… Later I’ll clean all this mess
Decide whether to confess… Or go and burn this bloody dress
(humming)
My husband’s dead… I shot him in the head
That was the last time I said...
CALL IT FATE By Tom Jensen
Birds circle around your home
Say it one more time...
Why won't they leave you alone?
They flap their wings from side to side
But from Mother Nature no man can hide
Being punished for crimes --
Well, that may be
For crimes against humanity
Just when you thought
There was no one to see
Now you look at your life
And who is to blame?
You can call it fate
You can call it a shame
As your family boasts:
"You're in the prime of your life"
You go under the doctor's knife
For cancer has no name or face
Unfortunately for you it's too late
Enter the hospital a dying life
Exit the church a crying wife
Now you look at your death
Pondering who is to blame?
You can call it fate
You can call it a shame
In the next room of the hospital
Is a mother's joy
The prize of a life - a baby boy
The parents counted the fingers
Then the parents counted the toes
But what's in the soul nobody really knows
Food, love and shelter - baby got his fill
So no one knows why he grew to kill
You can look at their deaths
And who they blame
You can call it fate
You can call it a shame
A man dresses in the mirror
As he flashes a smile
In a two-thousand dollar suit
He'll wear at the trial
He asks the judge to cut his client a break
Starts preaching about
How we all make mistakes
The judge, on these words, reduces bail
Keeps a guilty man away from jail
His freedom is gained but what's been lost?
Will he do it again?
                                                 They keep their fingers crossed

COME FOR A RIDE 
by Tom Jensen
Hey baby, 
Come for a ride and I’ll take you home
But then I’ll have to leave you on your own
I can never be the one for you
Sometime, somewhere you’ll see it too
I tried to stay as long as I can
But you’ll find another to be your man
Someone to love you like I couldn’t do
One who brings candy and roses, too
Hey baby, 
Come for a ride and I’ll take you home
But then I’ll have to leave you on your own
I can never be the one for you
I could never promise my love was true
I tried to stay as long as I can
But I cannot change the man I am
I won’t lead you on 
It’s too weary for the heart
I should have seen it coming 
Right from the start
Hey baby, 
Come for a ride and I’ll take you home
But then I’ll have to leave you on your own
I can never be the one for you
Sometime, somewhere you’ll see it too
I tried to stay as long as I can
You’ll find another to be your man
Someone to love you like I couldn’t do
One who brings candy and roses, too
Hey baby, 
Come for a ride and I’ll take you home
But then I’ll have to leave you on your own
I can never be the one for you
I could never promise my love was true
I tried to stay as long as I can
But I cannot change the man I am
I won’t lead you on 
It’s too weary for the heart
I should have seen it coming 
Right from the start
Hey baby, 
Come for a ride and I’ll take you home
But then I’ll have to leave you all alone
AS FOR ME
by Tom Jensen
Kisses and drugs
Make the world go round
Angry eyes and frowns
Just keep us down...
Booze and hugs help take off the edge
It's great to escape every now and then...
As for me... (as for me)
Well I'm glad you asked
When I look at my reflection I see 
many faces looking back 
from the shattered glass
back from the shards 
of shattered glass
back from these shards 
of shattered glass
Religion puts us all in boxes and rows
Though we know it's hard to open
a mind that's closed
In politics half the people are wrong
Half the people are right
Some enjoy a good fight
As for me... (as for me)
Well I'm glad you asked
When I look at my reflection I see 
many faces looking back 
from the shattered glass
Back from the shards of shattered glass
Back from these shards of shattered glass
Some people are strong
Others weak inside
So they hide behind 
a hollow wall of pride
(That's what they/we do)
Some people are greedy
Others feed the needy
Still more are shady
And some just plain seedy
As for me... (as for me)
Well I'm glad you asked
When I look at my reflection I see 
many faces looking back 
from the shattered glass
back from the shards of shattered glass
back from these shards of shattered glass
I don't judge myself on what I've done...
(Don't judge yourself on what you've done)
But on the things I've yet to do...
(There's so much out there that you can do)
I know somehow I've failed someone...
(You can't go pleasing everyone)
I'm just not yet sure if I know who...
(Sorry, but you will have to choose...)
APPLIED FAITH by Tom Jensen
Close your eyes
Quiet your mind
And describe to me
What you hope to find
Don’t give it a name
Let it be free
For fear it may change
Or worse never be
Calm your breath
Yes inhale deep
Then pinch yourself 
Make sure you’re not asleep
Is life a dream…
Then one day we wake?
To a world brand new
That’s ours to shape
Or is this it…
And at the end of the ride
There’s no more nothing
Just hello, goodbye
What if it’s a question of choice
And it’s up to you to decide
As what you believe in most
That fate will then be applied
Don’t dare waste thoughts
On hollow or empty things
For fear of finding out 
What the consequences bring 
Behold the power 
Of free mind and will
Everything can be unmade
And anything can be built
Conceive, believe, achieve 
Imagination is all you need
Yes, you can manifest your destiny
In this world, the next or whatever world will be
NOTHING AT ALL By Tom Jensen
You walked up to me
With my clothes in your hands
We had a conversation about things
Only I could understand
Not a tear I did see
For I kept my eyes closed
The way in which I feel
I'm the only one who knows
You begged and pleaded from your knees
Every other word I heard was please
Please don't you go away
Please, please
Don't you leave me this way
Only I knew that our fate was sealed
I kept my eyes closed
So that nothing was revealed
Someday all your wounds will heal
Someday I will tell you how I really feel...
I once asked you to save me from myself
Though soon I learned
That you can't leave that up
To anyone else
I asked you to change your ways
Though soon I realized
That some colors won't fade
The only one to help me is myself
For sometimes some things
Cannot be entrusted to someone else
Your inspiration was once my soul
But soon your hatred was for me
And the love I stole
You thought I'd take your heart
And keep it forever
But in this world of uncertainty
You can never say never
So many red-eyed days
So many nights filled with unrest
I was finally forced to realize
This may be too great a test
So many sleepless nights
And soon daydreams of another's face
I knew I couldn't stay
While wishing I was in some other place
Your heart's filled with gold
Yet your eyes are so cold
And the mirror which you hold
Reflects the face of no one at all
Your weakness often showed
And soon the time grew old
As no dream I had was too bold
The ceiling of our love was bound to fall
No regrets
Though memory will not soon forget
Myself I found
Now there are no more chains
To hold me down
There must be some reason
That it turned out this way
But I know right now
There's not one that I could say
I loved you once
And you will find love again
There is no better message
That I can send
Maybe I shouldn't have made you
Feel so tall
Maybe all your problems I couldn't solve
Sleep well knowing I am sorry
For the pain I've caused
Just know it's better feeling pain
Than feeling nothing at all
FENCES By Tom Jensen
Fences...
I see more fences
springing up every day...
There are people
paid to separate people
Who are lining up
to stand in the way
Of the profits of the prophets
Who create the media slaves, yeah
Who dictate who gets to divide the riches
Who gets to go diving with the fishes
And who gets to migrate and escape
Before it gets to be too late
Fences...
I see more fences
springing up every day...
Forcing us to choose sides
In this great divide
Between the people and the state
This state of confusion
A perpetual illusion
Of entertainment, sex,
death, of who's next,
Of celebrity, sport, fear and hate
Like me you want to get away
Want to find yourself
some kind of inner wealth
A reason to carry on
My dearest one
A reason to stay awake
Fences...
I see more fences
springing up everyday
Seems all those in line
Are blind to the times
Either wearing rose-colored glasses
Or being kept in the shade
The trees are tall
when you follow
every letter of the law
Straight to the 'T'
And yet fundamentally disagree
Failing to fully appreciate
the fact that fences
When used as defenses
are completely senseless
Especially when humans
are turned into machines
I see power serving power
I see snipers in the tower
I see the faces of the crying
I see truth from people dying
I see walls that keeps getting higher
I see more kindling being thrown on the fire
I see people scared and losing faith
And not being able to think straight
Fences...I see more fences...
Springing up everyday
F THE W By Tom Jensen
I see your face 
It looks to me 
You need some cheering up
Eyebrows are raised
Hair out of place
Your eyes are tearing up
You’ve lost your faith
In yourself hey…
You better listen up
Sometimes it seems
They crush your dreams
And THEN that’s when life gets tough
I turn frowns 
Upside down 
And make unhappy people smile
Life gotcha down? 
If I’m around
I’ll sit and talk with you awhile
I’ll share with you
A story or two
From my youth and time will fly…
For today we’ll let
Our troubles fade…
Say F the W and let’s get high
When we get home…
I’ll roll a bone….
And now you’re blazed….
Got dry mouth taste…
Let us all give thanks 
To that purple haze
For today we’ll let
Our troubles fade…
We’ll pie your eyes so you don’t cry…
We’ll have a laugh
Flipping through some funny photographs
Oh how the time goes by
So why be sad?
Angry or mad
When you can look up at the beautiful sky?
LIGHT By Tom Jensen
My world is empty
As strangers pass 
I imagine myself 
endeared in their eye
They never stop, 
just go about their daily routine
Never wondering what 
an unknown figure 
could ever do for them
Perhaps make every dream come true
Perhaps give them the sun 
and place it in their hands
They walk by 
and their lives are changed forever, 
unknown to them
I could have been their everything
My life remains the same, alone
I am willing to love
Yet they never stop, 
just go about their daily routine
Sometimes I try to be noticed, 
I shout and wave my hands
And make promises I fully intend to keep
But they do not stop, not for me
Desperate, I keep on searching
Filling my void with whatever 
I find to make the day pass
Night falls and covers 
my weeping eyes and damp cheeks
Despair fills my heart 
just as darkness fills the air
Alone and in the dark 
my eyes catch sight of a distant light
So far in the distance 
and so high atop the sky
Seemingly a kin to the mountains 
it is so unreachable
Yet I must try
What have I to lose 
except the pain of tears?
With every step closer 
my sorrow is lifted
I walk long miles 
yet my legs do not feel heavy
My heart begins racing 
as the light does not fade 
as I get closer
So many times before my dreams crushed 
right before my eyes
Maybe once I will succeed to reach the top
After what seems like 
an eternity of traveling I reach the summit
The light, once distant and small, 
now encompasses me
I stand before it, anxious to touch it
I extend my hand in friendly greeting
The light enters my fingertips 
and explodes into my body
A body once cold regains warmth
Each sense more excited than the next
All pain ever felt before 
is exiled back to where it came
My spirit returns and I feel alive
The light I now hold within guides me
Through darkness
Through worry
Now as I have found the light 
I will never be alone
The light I have found 
is you
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY by Tom Jensen
Graffiti scribbled on the side of a building
Obscenities aimed at the passing children
Yet these simple words can have
Such a complicated effect
On an empty vessel of thought
Dependent on a world filled with neglect
With the wind picking up
There's trash blowing all over the ground
There's three guys under 'neath a bridge
Passing the bottle around
I see weeds sprawling across the sidewalk
Crawling up through the cracks
I watch a kid on his way home to a broken home
Walking alone along the tracks
Things are heading south
No matter which way you face
What is bitter to your eyes
Can give your mouth a bad taste
Seems that everywhere I look
There's something that hurts my eyes
They say another day, another dollar,
Which each new day comes a new surprise
It's not just the inner city
Where things are getting worse
When the intellectual property of so many
Needs to be torn down or reinforced
ADVICE By Tom Jensen
I woke up this morning
Feeling cold and alone
I woke up this morning
After another night at home
All by myself
Sad and alone
All by myself
So I picked up the phone…
Oh won’t you please
Give to me
Some good advice
That’s right for me
On what to do 
With you know who
That’s whoever it is
I’m supposed to please
Oh please give to me 
Some good advice for
You know all about 
My pathetic life
Have a look at me
And tell the truth…
Can I still do all the things
That I wanna do?
Oh look at me and tell the truth…
Am I doing what I was meant to do?
Sometimes there’s a little voice
Inside my ear
Whispering words 
That I don’t wanna hear
A question mark after everything:
It’s not just the words I write
But the melody and who sings
Seems to be the story of my life
I keep doing what I think is right
Then get sidetracked by what compels me
Should I do what everybody tells me?
PLAYING CHESS By Tom Jensen
Burning up...Burning out...
Sitting in an ashtray...
With no way out...
Walking in circles...
Across hot coals...
Something landed on my lap...
What? Only God knows...
This is some new sh#$...
Highly funky...
Caged like a monkey...
Start by turning one key...
End up as a junky...
You may say highly unlikely...
But you could end up just like me....
If you say yes...
Would your life be a mess?
It's anyone's guess...
Well, life's like playing chess...
Let me explain my life
In a way that you can see it
I'm fighting a battle
I'm playing a game
But I know I’ll never beat it
So many moves though
I proceed with caution
While I’m weary of hesitation
Each step must be wise...
Just to escape total domination...
In that there is no compromise
All the devils have eyes...
Some wear suits and ties...
And tell dirty lies...
Some things just won't die
Someone watching
From way up high
Is playing chess with my mind
And I think the general
He wants me to die
As he sends me to the front
Of the battle lines
I've been a pawn
For far too long
Even though I'm still fighting
I don't know which side I'm on
Every time I look behind me
The general's gone
I hear checkmate
I now stand alone
And half-way around the world
Is a long way from home
Somehow I was taken
And played just like a fool
And I was mistaken
Thinking everyone plays
By the same set of rules
When I smash the board
I'll free myself
When I drop my gun
They'll enlist someone else
For I am no hero
I've lost all hope
Of saving mankind
If I can save myself
Then at least
I won't be wasting time
If I ever get that far
Then I'll try to free the others
One at a time
Show them what to be weary of
And all the warning signs
For even on top of the world
There are still mountains left to climb
SHADOW OF SMOKE By Tom Jensen
Just a shadow of smoke
That's how I appear
Try to reach out and touch me
What you see disappears
No living soul can reach me
First you see my face
Vanish into thin air
And then gone without a trace
Just another mystery
A puzzle no one can solve
First I am there
And then I dissolve
Just a castle of sand
Before the tide comes to me
And after a warm embrace
Carries me out to the sea
So back into the fog I fade
My own little solitary parade
Back into the waters I wade
Unable to undo all I have made
I've lost my soul
Through the horrors I've seen
Along with my past desires
Of all I could have been
To the days of old
I can never return
Time passes slowly
When the memories still burn
As I see children laugh
And young mothers dance
I know I've lived my life
There is no second chance
Just a shadow of smoke
That's how I appear
Try to reach out and touch me
What you see disappears
SHADES By Tom Jensen
What color are your eyes?
To me that’s as important
As the color of your skin
About this I am quite certain
What color are you inside?
That’s what really matters
What we can see outside
Are just shades and spatters
Shades from mighty bright white
To midnight black or blacker
To me it’s a mitigated factor
Much like the clothes of a good actor
For it’s just a tiny fraction of the whole
Something that’s beyond all of our control
Gives no insight to the depths of the soul
Might show where we’re from -
But not where we’re gonna go…
FIRST GLANCE by Tom Jensen
The ocean acts as the blood of the earth
She’s screaming out in a flood of hurt
Oh misguided one can’t you see what you’ve done?
Taken and forsaken see the red rivers run
With our mother provider in failing health
We could stop dividing and help ourselves
He who seeks paradise just to leave it in ruins…
Finds indeed all good things do end too soon
Visions of your future are found in the memories of your past
You can trace each face and place as you look back
A symphony of senses as you travel the threads of time
It’s like dreaming but you’re not sleeping still you feel so alive
You can feel the current of energy running through us all
The frequency determines whether we degenerate or evolve 
As free will plays as big a part as chance
So much more is happening here than appears at first glance
SHADOW BOXING By Tom Jensen
Maids in the morning sweeping up broken glass
Long lost dreams of a shattered past
As a cup full of life is spilled to the floor
A man who once had riches now lives poor
Walking down the spiral staircase that is my mind
Passing all the memories that I've left behind
See the same things enough soon you'll grow blind
Be careful of what doors you open and what you will find
Some patterns are so hard to break they end up breaking you
Anyone who's ever worn these shoes knows this is true
See enough dope and you're bound to give it a try
See murders every day and pretty soon you won't cry
There's blood on the sidewalk
The scent of death in the air
Yet you stroll right past
While others stop and stare
Some men live long and some die young
Some carry heavy burdens, some carry none
When you're shadow boxing you sometimes bruise
When you fight yourself sometimes you lose
BIRTHRIGHT By Tom Jensen
I had a glass of wine and I felt fine
Yeah, so I had a couple more…
I went out looking for a good time
Like Marco Polo – I wanted to explore…
Had no idea what it would bring
Maybe something great 
or perhaps nothing…
The only difference 
between the pauper and the king
Is just birthright 
and the size of the diamond ring…
Change the substance not the shadow
Or else you’ll find that change is hollow
Let the light in open the window
Lead the people and they will follow
What do I do…
If not this?
What do I share?
If not this gift?
What’s the best present
To give to our kids?
I say a future world 
Left better than when we 
First came into it?
But leading by example 
Is the hardest thing to do
To reserve and hold your judgment 
Until you walk one day without shoes
Singing the song of someone else 
Well, it only goes to prove
That one man’s country song
Can be another man’s blues
What do I do if not this?
I could go back to being a hypocrite
Hello dear…(fake smile)
Hi my love…(kiss, kiss)
Change the substance not the shadow
Or else you’ll find that change is hollow
Let the light in open the window
Lead the people and they will follow
Here’s something those of you
With two jobs already know
This bitter pill has become 
Too hard to swallow
Healthcare’s gone for good
And Social Security will follow
They want you to pay for today
So they can own you tomorrow
Overworked and underpaid
Slowly dying from minimum wage
Swimming in debt as the cost of living
It rises over your head…
so you try to forget…
But I won’t let you forget:
Change the substance not the shadow
Or else you’ll find that change is hollow
Let the light in open the window
Lead the people and they will follow
BEAUTIES AND BEASTS by Tom Jensen
I can see by that look in your eye...
That you're longing for something to believe in
You can see as you look back at me...
That I'm trying to find some kind of reason
For you to hang on
And for me to be strong
Maybe if we put our heads together
We can tell where things went wrong
One fresh breath of inspiration
Of flickering illumination
To spark the motivation
And bring back the love
That now seems to be gone...
To be gone...
The love of all the beauty
That lies within our beasts
The fulfillment of our goals
That we see inside our dreams 
The return to balance and moderation
Between these two extremes
Summoning the inner wisdom within ourselves
That lets us flow as we become one 
With the supreme being In harmonious love...
With all living things
La... la...
la la la la la la
La... la...
la la la la la la
WORTH THE WAIT by Tom Jensen
By the time I got to my paper
My pen was too tired to write
My eyes they started closing
And then I lost my sight
I don't quite remember 
Just what I was thinking of
It had something to do with you
And it had something to do with love
Blah blah blah blah…
The words all sound the same
Ha ha ha ha 
Even silence sings your name
Na na na na…..
There's no one that I blame
La La La La ……
I'm just so happy that you came
 Some say that absence
Makes the heart grow fonder
But I wasn't waiting 'round much longer
And though I've never been good at predicting fate
You were well worth the wait
Now that I've grown 
I've learned how to play the game
To finally win in the end
I found myself being tamed
Now that I've grown
There’s nothing I can't take
And since I learned how to bend 
I know I’ll never break
Some say that absence
Makes the heart grow fonder
But I wasn't waiting 'round much longer
And though I've never been good at predicting fate
You were well worth the wait
HE SAID SHE SAID By Tom Jensen
She woke up this morning
In a place she’d never seen before
She said…
I’m ready to turn the page
 but first I must close some doors
I thought that maybe I was learning 
but now I’m not so sure
I said, “You’ve got to hold on”
She said, “I’m not that strong”
“That’s okay” is what I respond
She said, “But I’m not where I belong…
I took a right… But my right went wrong”
I said in time you’ll find if you keep on trying
You can hurdle your mind 
and leave it all behind
I can’t weather this storm
I can’t see the sunshine
The last words I heard from you was that…
All sense of hope was fading fast
But what you forget
Is that I cry, too
Unclench your fists and remember this
Given time all things must pass
Now I’ve found the rhyme
Have you found a reason?
Killing time it ‘tis the season
A bottle of wine can be so pleasing
I’m feeling fine now my minds at ease
She woke up this morning
In a place she’s never been before
She said…
I’m ready to turn the page
But first I must close some doors
I thought that maybe
I was learning but now I’m not so sure
I said, You’ve got to hold on
You say…
I’m not that strong
That’s okay is what I respond
She said…
But I’m not where I belong
I took a right but my right went wrong
I said in time you’ll find if you keep on trying
You can hurdle your mind 
and leave it all behind
You can weather the storm…
Maybe I can weather this storm
You can find your sunshine…
Maybe I’ll watch the sunrise
She woke up this morning
Or should I say this afternoon
Had she finally broken free?
I can’t tell it’s far too soon
She thought about the
Bridge she’s been burning
Her only way of escape
From this land of ruin
She said…
Well I’ve been burning bridges
But it’s better than burning crosses
When everyone seems suspicious
You start adding up your losses
End up breaking more than dishes
That’s how this whole thing got started
So choose wisely for what you’re wishing
I said try not to make things hard, kid
THE SPOT by Tom Jensen
I got half a tank of gas 
And I’m looking for some ass
So I decided to take a drive down town
I know there’s girlies by the square
So that’s why I’m heading there
Right now…
It’s the hippest spot to be 
If you want to be seen on the scene 
(on the scene)
Be seen on the scene, yeah!
And you know me
That’s where I want to be (want to be)
Yeah, that’s where I want to be
I like the spotlight
Shining down on me… down on me
For all the world to see
Well I got up to the spot
And every girl I saw was hot
I was craving some affection
From a member of the opposite sex and
I always try to set a good example
For all the other upright mammals
On how business should be handled
Because few can hold a candle
To my legend or my name
Y’all can debate my place in the game…
But to me it’s all the same
Destiny don’t mean sh*t to me
I’m leaving hard work as my legacy
And if you are next to me 
then it’s best to be
Able to look at all things 
in this world honestly
The worst lies are the ones 
we keep telling ourselves
We keep living in denial 
and then no one helps
The heaviest burdens I’ve placed on myself
I got my head straight now -
Yeah, I’m back in good health
Life is so much easier when… 
You stop fighting yourself
I’ve stopped fighting myself
Back at the scene 
It was a Dionysian dream
And I was determined
To find myself a queen
The journey ahead has been left undefined
And in this endeavor it is the treasure 
that I hope to find
In fact I think I see her now 
So I got to go
If she turns out to be the one 
Don’t say I didn’t tell ya so
So here we go…
Oh oh oh oh - Oh
LOOK HER UP by Tom Jensen
You fell in love
But she wasn’t a ten
Now you’re wondering
What if you went back again…
Would you look her up 
Just to f*ck her hot friend?
Yeah, that’s the question
Most asked amongst men
Some live to run themselves
Straight through the ringer
Keep falling in love
With all these unplugged singers
When they’ve already heard the story
As we count the fallen seeking glory
TRASH CAN by Tom Jensen
Here is where I stand
Beside a burning trash can
Found a way to relieve my pain
Gathered everything that 
reminds me of your name
Ooh...Whoa...
Ooh...Whoa...
Every picture of you and I 
And all of the precious possessions 
That you left behind
As if a priest I now preside
In leading the funeral procession
My tears over these lost years
Have replaced the
bittersweet tasting wine
Ooh.... Whoa...
Ooh... Whoa...
Ooh... Whoa...
Since I am already pale 
Having found I lost my host
I find no further reasons
To invoke the holy ghost
Hoo...
Here is where I stand
Next to everything that you left
Beside a burning trash can
It's the only way that I'll ever forget
Hoo... Ooh...
Hoo... Ooh...
                                                                  Hoo... Ooh...                                                                                                                             t

HALF FULL by Tom Jensen
My glass is still half-full
Though my heart's half-empty
My castle's falling down
After standing for centuries
My faith is still strong
As love has not been forgotten
I see many trees cut down
Yet their fruit has not turned rotten
My smile I wear is real
My arms are still open
I've revealed to you how I feel
And even my difficulties coping
In this ever-changing world
With you not being in it
We both know how hard it can be
To start over at the beginning
Yet we must carry on
Without malice or regret
Without shame or self-pity
Come on!
Yes we must be strong
Picking ourselves up
 whenever we get stuck 
or start stumbling along
For when it comes to life
Obstacles... There can be many...
When I say 
I have the ability
To handle any and all adversity
To be the candle on the darkest night
Just hold my hand and trust in me
And I will try my best to
Guide you towards the light
And I will lead the battle charge 
If there comes a time when we must fight
FRIEND By Tom Jensen
I spread my words so let them be heard
All across the land...
All across these lands...
My advice is right and nice 
I'll have you understand
When it comes to giving
Give as much as you can...
When it comes to women 
sure my heart's been broken
Each time I try to fix it
And carry on the best I can...
Suddenly I feel empowered
Get inspired to spend the next hour
Sitting here and making song
Hoping you will come and sing along
A friend told me a story 
over coffee one morning
From one of the books she was reading
And, oh, how the pages were turning
Oh my friend is very lovely
If only you had a chance to meet her
You would understand it
How I feel when I see her
She was blessed with one of those faces
Possessed by only those truly lovely people
That when softly caressed 
it somehow erases
Time itself and everything - all that's evil
Someone once asked me
What the secret to my life is
I answered without thinking
"Learning love is priceless"
Share what you have with everyone:
And send flowers to yourself
Just a little "thank you" for being you
Now go and give them to someone else...
I spread my words so let them be heard
All across the land...
All across these lands...
My advice is right and nice 
I'll have you understand
When it comes to giving
Give as much as you can...
HAPPY PLACE by Tom Jensen
It was a rainy day
Not unlike today
Do do do
I was by myself
But she was on her way / But he was on his way
Do do do
It was the month of March
But felt more like April than May`
Do do do
I was in my happy place
As if I had to say
Do do do
This is the song
Whose melody can be repeated 
when needed
You don’t even need words
Words just describe pictures 
to the state of the mind
This is the song
Whose melody can be hummed 
in defeat or retreat
Offering a calming peace
During the most troubling 
and trying of times
This is the song
That everyone can sing
The poorest of paupers
The richest of kings
This is the song
That’s one big fairytale
But only if you want it to be
This is the song
That when we all sing along
Turns out to become reality
This is the song
That everyone can agree on
This is the song
That can save the world…
This is the song
That everyone can depend on
For it’s the song we hummed
Way back when we were young
Even though at the time
We didn’t know the words…
Do do do
This is the song
That everyone can agree on
This is the song
That is there from the start
Deep in our heart
It’s the first song
We learned by ourselves
And then we sang together
All the little boys
And all the little girls…
Do do do
FATE IS A WORD by Tom Jensen
Passion's found in 
many shapes and forms
Within a tight black dress, 
within a uniform
In the eyes of a mother
In the sighs of a lover
At three in the morning
Oh yeah...
Virtue can't be found 
in all eyes of men
Nor in their statues 
or great monuments
Only through tough
times and trial
Will we find ourselves
without denial
Or false compliments
Oh yeah...
Naked truth often hides 
where you least expect
Never in the lavish palace 
but in the cellar of neglect
Those of us living in glass houses 
should be careful of bricks
For some who are
 'the chosen ones'
Aren't the ones we'd pick
Oh no...
Fate is a word made up 
by the scared
As the reason 
why they failed
Or the reason 
they never dared
To summon the courage 
to follow the voice
They didn't always 
want to hear
Oh yeah...
I am a man who 
loves dishing it out
Yet I always have problems 
when it comes to myself
When it comes to stepping up 
I'm the first one to speak
When it comes to the children 
I try my best to teach
They say practice makes perfect 
so it's time to practice what I preach
HERESY SPEAKS NO EVIL By Tom Jensen
Government sponsored torture
is kind of hard to ignore
Especially when you're held prisoner
of a misguided war
Lobbyists sit with
wads of cash in their fists
For any politicians who
find it too hard to resist
Seems that tax cuts
for corporations
and also the rich
Is the only way to build
true bipartisanship
For our money system
The Fed is privately owned
Backed by paper not gold
And every day us indebt
wage slaves are sold
When you're afraid of
not being afraid
The "terrorists" win
Their best weapon is fear
They watch our civil liberties
become stripped away so fast
through the most unpatriotic of acts
Soon we won't be able to
speak, see or hear
If this is the state of the union
I think a state of emergency
should be declared
On second thought...
that's not such a great idea
And I haven't even
gotten to distribution of wealth
Inflation, funding for education
or health care
Why are so many more
concerned with the
theft of their identity
Than the loss of free will, 
dignity and humanity
When you lack
any great substance
I guess you dress to impress
And fill yourself with vanity
This misinformation generation
eats up whatever they feed ya
Be it Mickey D's, MTV,
shows based on "reality"
Yum Yum...
spoon fed by a controlled media
We're infatuated by celebrities
and American Idols
Fox News, LeBron's shoes,
natural disasters
and let us not forget...
the crazy homicidal
If this is the state of the union
I think a state of emergency
should be declared
On second thought...
that's not such a great idea
And I haven't even
gotten to distribution of wealth
Inflation, funding for education
or health care
I am growing tired of this throw away
disposable consumer society
Why are those who say
our globe isn't warming
Still trying to lie to me?
Using up energy sources
that will not be soon replaced
Did you know that plastic
is gonna be the fossil
of the entire human race?
Our seas are overfished
and rainforests destroyed
Why? So men can make money
Mother Nature gets lucky when
people are unemployed
If this is the state of the union
I think a state of emergency
should be declared
On second thought...
that's not such a great idea
And I haven't even
gotten to distribution of wealth
Inflation, funding for education
or health care
Time to step off my soapbox
And walk down the road yonder
But before I go
two final questions to ponder:
Might seven billion people
be considered overpopulation?
How can we have all-you-can-eat buffets
AND sufferers of starvation?
JEWELRY BOX By Tom Jensen 
I'm not an underachiever
More what you call 
a late bloomer
Took me a long time
to become a believer
Otherwise I'd have been here 
a whole lot sooner
I heard it said that 
I was past my prime
But now I know 
it was just a rumor
Such harsh words have 
strengthened me over time
Good thing I still have 
a sense of humor
When I said "take it 
or leave it..." she left it
Never cared about money...
but she cost me time
Ring's in the jewelry box...
I don't regret it
Replacements for me...
I'm sure they're waiting in line
Sacrifices had to be made...
but I'm at peace
You only live once...
I'm back to chasing my dream
After what we both held inside 
had been released
Gave her half of everything...
but my self-esteem
When I said "take it 
or leave it..." she left it
Never cared about money...
but she cost me time
Ring's in the jewelry box... 
I don't regret it
Replacements for me...
she's got them waiting in line
Sacrifices had to be made...
but I'm at peace
You only live once...
I'm back to chasing my dream
After what we both held inside 
had been released
Gave her half of everything...
but my self-esteem
I heard it said that 
I was past my prime
But now I know 
it was just a rumor
Such harsh words have 
strengthened me over time
Good thing I still have 
a sense of humor
I'm not an underachiever
More what you call 
a late bloomer
Took me a long time 
to become a believer
Otherwise we'd have been 
here a whole lot sooner
When differences 
in opinions increased
And they soon become 
known to be extreme
As you find you own what 
really should only 
have been leased
Yes, opposites attract 
yet it's best to 
share common themes
Sacrifices had to be made....
But I'm at peace
You only live once...
I'm back to chasing my dream
PRETTY TOYS
by Tom Jensen
With every hurled stone that is cast
I walk one step closer to becoming broken
With every coming sunset 
I manage to outlast
Ahead lies a sunrise
by which I may not be awoken
With every cigarette I smoke
I see another small sign of cancer
With every question that I ask
I find I come closer to the answer
As I look within your empty eyes
You create a new fantasy to fill the void
You play some music to cover your sighs
and fill your room 
with all those pretty toys...
Hey rich girl...Throw the keys 
to your Mercedes down to me
You'll have to leave it all behind 
if you really want to be free 
I look at my hands 
they're all beaten and torn
Sometimes you must get dirty 
if you want to be reborn
Hey rich girl... tell me what did you see 
when you traveled the world?
Did you do all you were told 
like daddy's good little girl?
Come away with me 
and maybe I'll write you a song
I've come here to teach you 
that everything they taught you was wrong...
Hey rich girl... Just what makes you think 
Father always knows best?
Sure you've found some answers 
but you still must take the test
With every hurled stone that you cast
You walk one step closer 
to becoming broken
With every coming sunset 
you manage to outlast
Ahead lies a sunrise by which 
you may not be awoken
With every cigarette you smoke
You see another small sign of cancer
With every question that you ask
You come much closer to the answer
Look within your empty eyes
A new fantasy to fill the void?
Play some music to cover your sighs
Fill your room with more pretty toys...
Pretty toys…Pretty toys…Pretty toys
IT IS YOUR TURN by Tom Jensen
If you don't know yet who I am
Don't worry that will change
I am a very simple man
Both on and off this stage
My life's work and my fun are one
That's why I am so happy
We all regret something we've done
Won't let that entrap me
I just look ahead... and never behind
Helps keep me from wasting all my time
Best for your body, soul and your mind
Can't press fast forward... I can't hit rewind
Leave something they will remember you by
Like those who were the first to fly
Or the first man on the moon
Now it's your turn what will you do?
You won't find me living in the past
Too much to do time runs by so fast
We never know how long it'll last
So little sand in this hour glass
Don't live life doing something you hate
That is the best advice I can give
Work is a four letter word - yeah, great!
Some live to work and some work to live...
Spend your life doing something you love
If it don't exist then make it up
You only walk this trail one time 'round
Don't let your dreams fade to the foreground
You won't find me living in the past
Too much to do - time runs so fast
We never know how long it'll last
So little sand in this hour glass
We never know how long it'll last
So little sand in this hour glass
BELIEVE ME by Tom Jensen
I could tell you all about my life…
But you probably wouldn’t believe me
You find me always doing right…
And you think it comes easy
You, who finds something new…
And becomes afraid
With that view…
There’s not a lot I can say
You’ll find out the hard way
That’s the price that some pay
When you play it too safe
Sometimes you don’t get to play
If you knew what I could do…
You wouldn’t throw me away
You’d say:
I’ll make some time…
Let’s spend the day…
Entwined
But still you judge me like all the rest
I would have given you my best
We’ll never put it to the test
I failed to peak or keep your interest
You never leave yourself exposed
Always someone else out in the cold
Hell, people feel lucky if you just show
I think we all know how this is gonna go…
WAMER WATERS
by Tom Jensen
While looking for a role model
While looking for a good hobby
Ended up picking up a bottle
Ended up hurting my body
I tried to save a lost cause
I guess I got a little carried away
Ended up losing myself
And let another one slip away
Looking for the sacred river
Looking for warmer waters
Ended up a disbeliever 
And being led to the slaughter
ooh oh oh oh ooh ooh
ooh oh oh oh ooh ooh
Tried to help them climb out from the valley
Tried to bring them to my level
Every time I get close - my God
They introduce me to the Devil
Looking to transcend my existence
Looking to find Heaven on earth
Ended up finding a sign: 
NO ADMITTANCE
I couldn't break the curse
I guess you shouldn't try to be a shepherd
When all your sheep jump off the cliff
But you can't see inside my conscience
And all the pain I'm living with
Alright!
Looking to begin another day
Looking to be the voice of reason
Ended up denying many things I say
Ended up my own victim of treason
Looking at myself in the mirror to see 
If I could recognize my face
Finally seeing everything much clearer
And finding the self I had misplaced
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Looking for the sacred river
Looking for warmer waters
Ended up a disbeliever 
And being led to the slaughter
Looking for the sacred river
Looking for warmer waters
Ended up a disbeliever 
Being led to the slaughter
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Looking for warmer waters
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Looking for warmer waters
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Looking for warmer waters
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Looking for warmer waters
BLESSING IN DISGUISE 
by Tom Jensen
Maybe you'll see him again when all is well
Up there in heaven 
or maybe down here in hell
There's no telling 
what the tide will bring to shore
No way to know if you'll meet again 
Once you walk out that door
Think of the one you loved 
whom you now despise
Believing that a heart grown cold 
is a heart grown wise
Yet before the flood Mother Nature sighs
For she holds a power that no man denies
Soaked to the bone 
as you're on your way home
With the umbrella that you hold 
at least you are not alone
Yet you're soaked to the bone 
as you're on your way home
With the umbrella that you hold 
at least you are not alone
Everything happens for a reason 
soon you will realize
That even your worst nightmare 
could be a blessing in disguise
And that after it rains the sun will rise
Allowing you to gaze up at brighter skies
Your soul will guide you 
when your heart tells you lies
Sometimes when you search 
you have to close your eyes
There is no such path 
straight as the crow flies
This journey you make 
is filled with lows and highs
Soaked to the bone 
as you're on your way home
With the umbrella that you hold 
at least you are not alone
Yet you're soaked to the bone 
as you're on your way home
With the umbrella that you hold 
at least you are not alone
So much for talking
You had better start walking
With the clouds rolling in 
pretty soon it'll pour
As all the dirt washes down the street
Like tears cried over a battle 
that was lost in defeat
Maybe you'll see him again when all is well
Up there in heaven 
or maybe down here in hell
There's no telling 
what the tide will bring to shore
No way to know if you'll meet again 
once you walk out that door
Soaked to the bone 
as you're on your way home
With the umbrella that you hold 
at least you are not alone
STILL THINKING OF YOU TONIGHT
by Tom Jensen
Lately it's been getting 
The better of me
Wondering how long
It'll take 'til she sees
That we're soul mates
If there ever was, is or could be
For I feel in my heart
One day she'll think differently
So patiently... 
So very patiently...
I bide my time...
Within this endless rhyme:
These feelings inside 
I can no longer fight 
Can you tell, does it show… 
I’m still thinking of you tonight 
So patiently... 
So very patiently...
I bide my time...
Within this endless rhyme:
Searching in my soul 
Trying to find my inner light 
Sitting here by myself… 
I’m still thinking of you tonight 
I sit here and then 
My pen begins to write 
I just want you to know… 
I’m still thinking of you tonight 
So patiently... 
So very patiently...
I bide my time...
Within this endless rhyme:
Waiting for you here 
With just this line that I recite 
Nothing's changed how I feel… 
I’m still thinking of you tonight 
I’m still thinking of you tonight 
BETRAYAL By Tom Jensen
What will her friends say?
What wild rumors will be spread?
Where lies her escape?
These thoughts run ‘round in her head
She had been bruised inside
Blood trickled down the side of her face
He was twice her size
She was just half his age
She fought so hard 
but she was unable to resist
That’s okay,
I like it better this way, he hissed
When she tried to say no with her knee
He said yes with his fist
But luckily, when he swung he had missed…
At least the first time
He pinned her down
Leaving red welts on her wrists?
To mom and dad she cried:
I’m sorry to have to tell you this:
But Jesus wasn’t the only one
Who was betrayed by a kiss
Yet never in Sunday school 
did they ever cover this…
And this was her first time
What will her friends say?
What wild rumors will be spread?
Where lies her escape?
So many thoughts run round in her head
Once it was known
That his seed had been sewn
She carried the child like a disease
For when the baby came
How could she explain
That a rapist’s eyes were all that she sees
What will her friends say?
What wild rumors will be spread?
Where lies her escape?
So many thoughts run
round in her head
Conflicting voices whisper in her ear
She tries to drown them out 
but they won’t disappear
Her pastor’s sermons 
and a voice that she hadn’t heard before
Every day that voice
Speaks louder…
She knows soon
It will speak no more…
GYPSY MAMMA
by Tom Jensen
I met a gypsy mamma
One day while I was driving down the road 
Would have mistaken her for a farmer
Had her tire not felt the need 
to suddenly explode
There she sat stranded
With her young boy in tow
This summer trip they had both planned it
But this was not how it was supposed to go
"Can I help you out little lady?
I got a face that you can trust
And soft spot in my heart
For people down on their luck"
With these words she smiled
And proceeded in telling me
She didn't know where she was headed
Only that she had a date 
with fate and destiny
Said she lived in the same state 
for far too long
And that she was a singer 
but lately all the words kept coming out wrong
With her life lacking harmony 
she had since stopped writing songs
That's what she said...
With that I paused and took a breath
I said yeah, I play too, 
and I'm heading out west
Where the sky is the limit 
and sun shines bright
And all the people like to party 
like it's friday night
With big brown eyes 
she looked at me and said:
"Hey man, you're alright!"
So we just kept on driving
No, she never looked back
That was exactly ten years ago today
As a matter of fact
If it wasn't for a tire 
I'd have just kept on driving by
And if I was liar 
she'd have left me high and dry
(That's what she could have done)
If she was a farmer 
she could have lived off of the land
Yet she was gypsy mamma
Albeit one with a plan
Now ten years we've been together
Creating and writing and playing songs
(gypsy mamma)
As both our lives keep getting better…
To think that all this started 
'cause one day everything went wrong...
woh ooh
USED TO BE by Tom Jensen
I used to be really rockin'
I used to be rollin'
I had it
I lost it
I found it…aAnd then it was stolen
So now I'm back out lookin'
Down the avenue I'm strollin'
Still got the fire but nothing's cookin'
I had it once but I no longer hold it
Gone, gone, gone away
I found it once but I no longer own it
Led, led, led astray
Let everybody see it
When I never should have shown it
No, no, no way
And if you can't clone it
Then you better lock it away
That's why today
Is just the price we have to pay
For yesterday's mistakes
For jumping in the lake
When it was far too shallow and much too cold
Didn't pay for the ticket but ride is getting old
All right everyone gather around
Everybody's gotta play their part
Go starting looking all over the ground
And don't stop looking until you find my heart
I once gave it away but it was disregarded
And the way I see it yYou'll probably find it in pieces
'Cause she left me here so brokenhearted
I used to be really rockin'
I used to be rollin'
PICTURE SOMETHING NICE By Tom Jensen
Homeless mand in the alley
He's paying his dues
While he was sleeping
The children took his shoes
When he wakes up
He looks so confused
His pride is hurt
What's left of his ego is bruised
Yeah, every hour
of every day
The faces change
But the story's the same
You live it, you breathe it
You hear it, you see it
You learn to accept it
And soon you expect it
Just as the sun rises
Just as the moon shines bright
There's no need to worry
You're doing all right
Don't pay attention
Just walk on by
Picture something nice
Don't you bat an eye
It's not your problem
Someone else will solve it
It's not your problem
Someone else will fix it
You just leave the worrying to me
I'll worry about the way thing ought to be
It's not your problem
So go on and make your exit
You think that you're perfect?
In everything you say
In everything you do
Some say what you don't know
Cannot hurt you
And you believe it to be true
Oh, but the price you will pay
You will find out some day
That day maybe today
Or could still be far away
So you better keep on your toes
Because there is something
That everybody knows
Inside there's a monster that grows
Beneath your pretty clothes
A vanity affair
But there is no one else there
You're only cheating yourself
A vanity affair
Either make amends
Or keep playing pretend
You're only cheating yourself
When you think you win
Then you really lose
So either apply some more makeup
Or think of changing your shoes
A vanity affair
You're not just cheating yourself
You're dragging down
Everybody else
WHAT WE SHARE
by Tom Jensen
A passing daydream floated by
I plucked it clean out of thin air
Only an hour ago I heard your voice
And at this moment..... 
It felt like you were here...
So many precious times... 
What I hold dear has disappeared
But to let someone so close to your heart 
Very few have ever dared... 
Share what we share
My memories are my company
Whenever I turn and you're not there
Wherever I come to find myself
I hold them tight... When I am scared
Then I feel a calmness in the air
Oh, how sweet the taste
As I stare into a beautiful daydream
I hear your voice, I see your face
Yes, I could spend just a day with you
That would be enough to see me through
All the anger and pain
from the rest of the week
All the horror and madness 
that we must face
After an hour or two with you 
it has all been erased
So I've come up with a plan 
to get us through
Put your trust in me and I'll trust in you
My memories are my company
Whenever I turn and you're not there
Wherever I come to find myself
I hold them tight... When I am scared
Then I feel a calmness in the air
Oh, how sweet the taste
As I stare into a beautiful daydream
I hear your voice, I see your face
For I can take you to the place you see
We could both be there living in harmony
No longer would we have 
to search our memories
Together we can turn dreams into reality
My memories are my company
Whenever I turn and you're not there
Wherever I come to find myself
I hold them tight... When I am scared
Then I feel a calmness in the air
Oh, how sweet the taste
As I stare into a beautiful daydream
I hear your voice, I see your face
ONE NIGHT STAN by Tom Jensen
Well I’m going out tonight
And I look ‘aight
It’s time to give the ladies hell
We’ll catch one under our spell
And then maybe take her home
You know I love to bone!
The next morning I’ll drop her off
And never call her on the phone 
You can call me ‘one night Stan”
Hey baby, I’m YOUR man!
Let’s have a little fling
Who get the girls to sing?
And as you’re calling out my name
We’ll get this kitten tamed
I’ll give you the best day of your life
Then sneak out in the middle of the night
Yeah, you get just one day then I’m afraid
I’ll have to go star on another stage
Today it’s ALL the rage
So don’t feel like YOU’VE been played
They call me ‘wrong number Bill’
Hey baby come and get your fill!
They call me ‘long gone John’
It may not be right…
But you can’t tell me that it’s wrong!
HISTORY TO ME by Tom Jensen
I remember when Ice Cube and T were black
And rapped...now they act...like crap...
I remember when The Rock he cooked
And then he'd call us all funny names
Eye brow raised with that funny look...
Now he acts...like crap…it’s a fact…
Everything is coming back
But changed...
They're calling it the same name
But it's strange...
I remember when it was cool to say hello
To somebody new I didn't know
Now they're all plugged in to their phones
Which is plugged in where? They don't know...
They don't care. I say hello. They don't say hello.
So I stare...
Uh Oh...
I need more than a good chiropractor
To fix this fractured broken soul
I need more than skilled psychiatrists
To bandage up these mentally slit wrists
And net all these knotted thoughts
I watch spin and twist out of my control
So look out… all up, down and around
Both near and far, hey you up there, look out below!
Everything is coming back
But changed...
They're calling it the same name
But it's strange...
I’m seeing so many faces playing charades
Believing they’ve found a new game in a new age…
Hahaha… It’s just history to me…

CUTIE PIE by Tom Jensen
Since a miss by an inch 
Is as good as a mile
I’ll die wearing hip dirty clothes
Opposed to clean ones out of style
You can tell as much about me from my eyes 
As you can from my smile
I don’t mind being hypnotized
By a cutie pie for awhile
I’ll have you understand
I found my weakness as a man
Running my fingers through your hair
As your breath became my air
Every time I closed my eyes
You’d be there inside my eyelids
As your voice became my music
I’d hear piano, harp and violins
No longer am I lonely
Since our hearts were joined souly
Even apart we’re still together
From now until forever
I don’t know what could be better?                                                                                                                                                                                      t

BIRD ON A STRING By Tom Jensen
He held a bird on a string
But it's not what you might think
It was only for her own protection
Oh how she could sing
And how she loved to soar
Oh how high she could fly
When she knew she need not
Look down anymore
He would always be there to catch her
When she fell back to earth
For in his life he had learned many lessons
But to him nothing had ever meant more
Than when this his most prized possession
Once released from her cage
He'd get to go and see all the places
That she would take him to explore
He held a bird on a string
She became to him his everything
He let her out every morning
Then each evening she'd return
Every day she would fly higher
So then the string became longer
The song she sang became louder
As her wings grew stronger and stronger
Oh how high she could fly
When she knew she need not look down anymore
He would always be there to catch her
Whenever she fell back to earth
HOUSE OF SHATTERED GLASS
by Tom Jensen
I'm feeling trapped 
Within myself
Within my heart and within my own head...
I'm feeling surrounded 
With this sense of hurt, this sense of loss 
and the feeling of dread
I'm waiting for your letter 
The one that I'll cry as I read:
The one that says:
"I'll always love you... 
But you're something that I don't need"
And it is filling me with misery
And I still feel nothing but love
Love for you... but not for me
That part of my heart is empty
There's nothing there it's null and void
I worked so hard to get you to love me
Yet here I am left unemployed
I don't feel bitter 
I just feel let down
I've never been a quitter 
I'm a lover not a leaver
But now I'm leaving town...
'Cause I just can't bear to be around
In you... 
I am your greatest believer
In me... 
I'm my own greatest deceiver
As everyone told me it was a fairytale world
From inside this house of shattered glass 
I stood up to every stone they hurled
And we both know it hurts
Watching your blood make mud
As it mixes with the dirt
That they also threw at you
But I knew what it was that I had to do
Still, through all of this 
I only know of one truth:
I will never stop loving you
But what's even worse:
Is that you know it, too
BETTER THAN IT SEEMS By Tom Jensen
I am trying to unlearn
What all the teachers have taught me
I am trying to unlock
An original thought but I have no key
I am trying to believe
That it's better than it seems
(Or at least what I can see)
I am trying to achieve
The American Dream
Of leaving a legacy behind me
Look out the man's got the pen again
Pulls it out every now and then
Smokes some pot as your thoughts
Become your friends
Keep on looking for answers
Until the questions end
So what pulls you through?
Is it something bigger than you?
Or is it lesser than you?
It could be that, too
For so many this is true
Oh, so what am I to do?
Lock myself in a vault
And point my finger at you
Screaming everything is your fault
Sure, you're soul searching
Yet you haven't found a clue
Finally my inner turmoil is at peace
I slayed the dragon
I conquered the beast
Fought so many things
That I could and couldn't see
That which I once believed
Would one day get the best of me
Has now been left behind
I always knew it was just a matter of time
Now that I'm finally where I want to be
I still can't really say that I'm doing fine
With all this free time plaguing my mind
I get to dig a little deeper inside
Still afraid of what I'll find
RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES
by Tom Jensen
I don't read the paper
Hell I don't even watch the news
Everyone's used to horror 
and everyone's got the blues
Always another plane crash
Or gunman on a rage
I never pick up the paper 
unless it's lining for a cage
I used one for my birdcage
And my bird spoke of death and hate
I wish I'd used the comics... 
But I realized this too late
The worst is on the cover 
seen by children of every age...
If I was editor of the paper, 
I'd put the good things on the front page!
Then maybe it'd rub off 
and people would treat each other kind
Have you heard the expression, 
out of sight and out of mind'?
When violence is on TV
Then children will play with guns
Yet when they're watching Sesame Street
That's when they're having fun
I'm moving to the mountains
So I can watch the trees
Where you don't have any doors 
and you don't have any keys
House of wood, Bed of straw
When I see a pig, 
it won't remind me of the LAW!
I won't use no roads 
-- I'll set off on my own course
Trading my ford for a six pack and a horse
I took that walk through the wilderness 
to escape a world of lies
I proposed to Mother Nature 
but I only heard her sigh...
Felt the swaying of the trees 
as I walked on fallen leaves
She reminded me of the death 
of everything that breathes
There are those who try to play God
Shoot everything that moves
The fact that men can make rifles 
Is the only thing it proves
I traded my gun for a camera -- 
That should come as no surprise
A deer I watched drinking from a stream -- 
I shot him right between the... eyes
Now it lives on forever
Does not die today
Captured in a picture 
that will never fade away
FACE TO FACE By Tom Jensen
You can run and you can hide
But I know your face 
It always shows
That you can’t lie…
So I don’t call you
On the phone
And now you know
The reason why…
I read your letters
So full of love
You tell me I’m the one
That you’re thinking of
Yet I know your gift
When it comes to the pen
As I think to myself
You’re at it again
One line leads to another line
One lie leads to another lie
I know all the walls
You use to hide behind -
It’s true
So I wait outside your place
To meet and greet you face-to-face
So I know whether to cry or laugh
When I look back 
at all those paragraphs –
From you
As I think back to all 
the things you’ve said
For I long to know 
what’s really inside your head
What you’re thinking to yourself 
and also about me
When you say that destiny 
is what we were meant to be
Together and forever 
for it was written in the stars
Yes, this is the true you 
and this is what you really are
Or whether this is just another plot 
and I am just your toy
Am I really your man 
or just a silly little boy?
ENDLESS CHORUS By Tom Jensen
I'm as deep as the day is long
That's why it hurt me
To find myself becoming weak
When I needed to be strong
This long day and my long face
Shows you that I know no other way
So it's back to bed with a worried head
An unsteady mind and too much time
I think too much about the past
Of broken trust and how things don't last
I'm as deep as the day is long
That's why I rarely sleep
And I only dream in song
Then I wake up
And I try to play along
To the melody
That my heart weeps
Since you and me
We broke our bond
I find your ghost
Keeps haunting me
With rattling chains
And shaking keys
I try to hide
But to no avail
Just an endless chorus
About how we failed...
ENEMY OF THIS STATE By Tom Jensen
I share my darkness with the morning
It’s about time to set back the clocks
I can see now that the world's been turning
Through this tiny hole inside my prison box
Yes, I'd rather sit here within my own seclusion
Then go chasing after some make believe dream
So many have become entrapped by the false illusion
That what we think we see is what it appears to be
For all of the freedoms
That we once held dear
With one lie and one swipe of the pen
I have watched them disappear
Life sure has changed
So much since yesteryear
I'll become an enemy of this state
When hope can no longer conquer our fear
Perhaps I’m being too critical
Of this society in which we live
But sometimes it becomes too hard to take
When those who have the least 
are the only ones who give
Yes, life sure has changed
So much since yesteryear
I’ll become an enemy of this state
When hope can no longer conquer our fear
BEST LEFT By Tom Jensen
One single ray of light 
broke through the clouds
Touched down upon the ground 
that I was standing upon
My lover right beside me 
just stood in my shadow
By the time she made up her mind 
to move the light was gone
Though it was never discussed
This scene said so much about us
This strange phenomenon
Either she didn't notice or else didn't care
Just stood there in the cool, crisp air
At six minutes past dawn
But I know another girl 
who is made up of sunshine
She's waiting but I'm not sure 
if she's been waiting for me
She's someone who knows
Just how I'm feeling
Yet she's uncertain
If we were ever meant to be
So I asked her if I could come and see her
For it seems she's now ready to settle down
After five years of traveling 
across the country
She picked out a state
And said, "No more moving around"
And I've been searching for inspiration
For a new picture to place inside my frame
I have grown bored 
with everything around me
But I'm unsure of whom or what I blame
I've been seeking a new set of surroundings
A new life, a fresh face, a new name
I'm getting tired of waiting
For the time to be perfectly right
I'm packing my bags when I get home
And I'll be leaving some time later tonight
I'm unsure of my exact destination
I desire somewhere with a warmer locale
Maybe then I'll kick these winter time blues
And brighten up my entire morale
Yes, I've been searching for inspiration
For a new picture to place inside my frame
I have grown bored 
of everything around me
I've decided that things 
just can't stay the same
So I won't say that this story's finished
Only that soon 
I'll be heading west on a train
Sometimes you can't wait 
you must create your own fate
Find out if some things are best left...

ALISON'S AIRPLANE 
by Tom Jensen
I find my religion in the basement of churches
Never mind a pew
Here I sit trying to learn from my mistakes
God knows I've made a few
If you'd made as many as I have
Then you'd probably sit here, too
Here I sit and reminisce it all
Biding my time by reading slogans on the wall
Maybe a higher power is what I need
Perhaps placing something above myself will set me free
For you can only tell what you're really worth
When you realize you're not the center of the earth
The sun does not rise for you
No matter how much you want it to
Then the rest is up to you
Use your better judgment if you want to
MATCH MAKER
by Tom Jensen
I'm inspired...again
By the flame of a fire at least it's not the rain
I'm inspired...again
Will this song that I sing just sound the same?
The same as all the other songs 
That I used to write
Where the melody was truly beautiful
But the words were never right
Or maybe it was just the name
What if I change it?
And yet let the lyrics remain
Perhaps then all would be In perfect harmony
If instead of her and I 
I wrote about you and me...
I'm inspired...again to open my heart
And with this new start another song would begin
Or it could all come to an end
And instead of an old love song
This time I could start my new rhyme:
A poem freshly penned for a friend
Either way I would write with words full of love
Hoping that you and I unite
Sharing all the dreams we've been thinking of...
I'm inspired...again
By the flame of a fire at least it's not the rain
I'm inspired...again
Will this song that I sing just sound the same?
ALCOHOL By Tom Jensen
I am a victim though I feel like a hero
You make me feel like number one yet I'm a zero
All this you put me through and still I go back to you
What is wrong with me? Why can't you let me be?
I saw you once and then I saw you twice
Now I see you all the time
When everything is said and done
I'm the one who pays the price
You never treated me kind
I had to descend from the highest mountains
Just to come back to earth
I climbed up the slopes of the valleys
For what any of it is worth
Still I come back to you 
after all that you put me through
You and I walked hand in hand 
and I picked you up when you fell
I thought you were my ticket to heaven 
and still I landed here in hell
Our conversations were one-sided…
I never tried to hide it
You've never given me good advice
Still I come back to you
When everything is said and done… 
I'm the one who pays the price
Every time I try to stay away 
you cross my path nearly everyday
I fight so hard to walk a straight line
I fight so hard to leave you behind
Once false step and I'm back again 
and no further on then where I began
Still I come back to you 
after all that you put me through
What is wrong with me? 
Why won't you let me be?
MICHELANGELO AND MARBLE
by Tom Jensen
Alright…When it comes to minds 
and going exploring...
I raised my hand in the air 
and yell out I'm all for it
You may leave the room now 
to avoid a mind full of questions
You may leave the room 
and pace the halls with the rest of 'em
So many men don't understand
What we hold in our hands 
or what I'm speaking of
As this world keeps turning
There's a fire burning 
within minds like mine yearning for love
Like Michelangelo's marble
She possessed only the finest of features
Now I've found what I seek
All my life I've been a student
And now I have a teacher
I love the way her mind dances
Perhaps in time I'll reach her
Seems when she sings a song
I can't help but sing along
Now I proudly call myself a believer
We had a little talk about
Our creeds and our codes
I read to her a poem
That I once wrote about
following what little light that still glowed
Oh...Like Michelangelo's marble
She possessed only the finest of features
Now I've found what I seek
All my life I've been a student
And now I have a teacher
Oh...
Since I first heard her voice
It seems I'm not alone
Either by chance or by choice
Her words carve my mind
Like I was a piece of stone
(Like I was a piece of stone)
I recently became a believer
I'm caught under her spell
I recently became a believer
In the lady known as Weaver
(I love the lady Weaver)
Just like Michelangelo's marble
She possessed only the finest of features
Now I've found what I seek
All my life I've been a student
And now I have a teacher
Just like Michelangelo's marble
She possessed only the finest of features
Now I've found what I seek
All my life I've been a student
And now I have a teacher
She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...
Whoa...
She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...
Whoa...
Yeah!
What shape will I take?
Seems it's too early to tell...
I recently became a believer
In the Lady known as Weaver
And I hope you will as well...
I hope you will as well
I hope you will as well
I hope you will as well
She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...
Whoa... Yeah! 
LOST AND FOUND By Tom Jensen
I see what you have
And I want it
It will be mine
For I'll pay any cost
Someday you'll turn around
And she will not be there
For I will have found
What you have lost
You will begin to hate it
But it was all premeditated
Just when you thought
You had everything together
I finally convinced her
That she can do better
Because no matter
where you go
Pick any corner of the world
There's one thing I know...
There are only
four types of girls:
Either...
For now
For later
Forever
Or forget it
And if she's three of the four
Then you're gonna live to regret it
For now comes and then goes
For later keeps you on your toes
Forget it never shows
But when forever arrives
Then everybody knows
There is no such phrase
As setting standards too high
So be forewarned...
When forever appears
She catches everybody's eye
ANOTHER HISTORY LESSON By Tom Jensen
So just what do you want from me?
Another bloody lesson on history?
I am but one man can't you see
Will there be anyone behind me
When I finally make my stand?
Could I see a show of hands?
For I've grown sick and tired
Of laying way back in the cut
When your conscience burns with fire
You reach a point where enough's enough
No more playing follow the leader
I just fell off of the societal ladder
History is cyclical and I'm a big reader
Many say I'm madder than the mad hatter
But to me those vicious
Tongues only flatter
Only what my people say
That's all that really matters
I try to make a difference everyday
Don't let my ego go run off and play
For it may come home
Broken and shattered
I dress myself in rags and tatters
For people see me
More clearly this way
It's a small price to pay
To help keep the monsters at bay
For there's very little that I need
To be free of jealousy and conceit
Just my one true love
And our little ones at our feet
Then I'd sleep well
Knowing I've made a difference
At least to most
Of the people I meet
That's my definition of winning
Living in a box
Saying everything sucks
Now to me that's sinning
Such unfulfillment
Would be my defeat
A human retreat
Having to start all over again
At the beginning
NAMELESS by Tom Jensen
You blew out my candle 
Just so yours could burn brighter
You took my little girl 
And put bad things inside her
Thoughts of not being good enough
Oh how could she measure up
In this morality fashion show
That makes the rules up as they go
Living in the shadows and staying low key
Blending in with all 
the pretty things she sees
It won’t make you famous 
but it will help you stay alive
Sometimes remaining nameless 
is the reason why we thrive
You blew out my candle 
Just so yours could burn brighter
You burdened me with heavy load
Just so you could tread lighter
You laughed, pointed and sneered
When I took the wheel and steered
And as I wandered far off course
You offered no form of support
No helping hand to lend
Not a guiding message sent
Left abandoned on the shore
When not thought useful anymore
You kept looking at me
To see the star I’d never be 
But did you question if your perception
Was in fact reality?
You blew out my candle 
Just so yours could burn brighter
When I offered peace or war
You declared, “Neither!”
We’re locked in a state of paradox
Where the focus has been lost
Always scheming or else screaming 
Trying to get your point across
There’s no more words?
I’m at a loss…
SHE by Tom Jensen
She gently sighs
And then she softly cries
She still denies
That there's a void inside
An only child but not a lonely child
Her horses were chained 
so they never ran wild
An early life full of distractions
And they all offered her protection
But all of her paths were paved in stone
She could never ever find her way all alone
She...oh she...oh she...
She...oh she... could not break free
A child cloned from her environment
Told what not to do without trying it
Second thoughts... 
She never paid them any mind
Just blocked out her memory 
and kept walking her straight line
She was barefoot and pregnant
And now she regrets it
Once every man did want her
Never dreaming her past
Would ever come 
back to haunt her
She...oh she...oh she...
She...oh she... could not break free
The man paid the bills 
and shattered her wills
And broke her down to her simplest form
Now she regrets it… Her life is pathetic
Never thought it herself… 
Though everybody said it
She bended and kneeled
Her fate forever sealed
A true-self never truly revealed
After he left her wounds never healed
Just another sheep left so defenseless
She...oh she...oh she...
She...oh she... could not break free
She gently sighs and then she softly cries
She gently sighs and then she softly cries
She still denies that there's a void inside
An only child but not a lonely child
Her horses were chained 
so they never ran wild
She was battling hard to defeat the day
Seems she wouldn't have it any other way
While trying hard to hide away all the lies
She begins to feel a tear in her eye
She...oh she...oh she...
She...oh she... could not break free
She...oh she...oh she...
She...oh she... could not break free
So she hides the pain away
Has forgotten any other way
Today's reflection still mirrors yesterday
Yet May is another month away
She…
PANDORA'S BOX By Tom Jensen
Closed is Pandora's box
Now there is no
face on the clock
As this new day begins
so surreal and sublime
Glide with the ebb and flow
Watch a once high tide
now grow low
As the sea dances 
in its endless pantomime
On the banks of this shore
One needs one's self
And nothing more
There's no reasons,
no rhymes
And thus everything
is fine
Just four seasons
of sunshine
The only killing is
that of time
There are no words
That can hurt
Nor lessons once taught
Now needing
to be unlearned
Just a fire that burns
Yet does not scorch
Acting as a beacon
And as a torch
Helping to light the way
For all those who've
Been led astray
Neither at work
Nor at play
Is where I've come
to find myself today
Lost freedom has been gained
How could you
ever be the same?
Now self-aware
of a life without ego or crime
Tension has been released
Finally your mind is at peace
Being here alone 
is like traveling back in time
Our fate still has yet
to be sealed
A glimmer of hope
Has since been revealed
No soldiers on the battlefield
War has ended
And time has healed
Returning to the days of yore
A glimmer of hope
Has since been restored
Neither at work
Nor at play
Is where I've come
to find myself today
Here along the banks
of this shore
One needs one's self
And nothing more
LET IT RIDE by Tom Jensen
I can feel you're growing tired 
Can sense you're getting run down 
As you spoke your brain seemed wired 
So full of scattered thoughts 
bouncing all around
When I called to cheer you up
You seemed so very distant so far away
I thought by now I knew all the words
That could lighten your load 
and brighten up your day
Hence when silence fell upon us
My face took on a peculiar 
and puzzled state
That's when I knew 
to throw away all my words
For it was best for you 
and best for me to wait...
You told me that you needed time
Time alone with just yourself
And not to take it personally
But of course you knew how I felt...
I felt like less of man
And more like a child
Since I always do what I can
To make you smile
Yet I respected your wishes
Your will and desires
As I gave you the space
Which you said you required
For I know you by now
When it comes to troubled times like these
I gracefully bow down
And back away far enough
Until it suits your needs
For that is love...
Learning when to push, when to pull
and when to temporarily retreat
For that is love...
Knowing when to drive 
When to let it ride
And when to take a backseat
MISS YOU KISS YOU by Tom Jensen (and )
a duet… male =1
female = 2 and together = 3
1 Don’t you know I dream about you
When I'm asleep and wide awake
Both when I’m half asleep and wide awake
2 I know for I can tell when you're dreaming
My upper lip starts to quiver and shake
1 Honey, don't you know I'm thinking of you
On these empty, dark, cold and lonely nights?
2 I can tell what you're thinking
As if I have the gift of second sight
3 I miss you… I wish to have you here
So I can kiss you
With passion, deep and sincere
3 And this too…
Let me whisper into your ear
Can't resist you 
Cause you're the love of my life
And it's so clear
1 You know me so well that I don't have to say
When you're away how I toss and turn
Sweetie, that's alright
Yeah baby, that's okay
When out goes the light
It’s for you I yearn
3 I miss you… I wish to have you here
So I can kiss you
With passion, deep and sincere
3 And this too…
Let me whisper into your ear
Can't resist you 
Cause you're the love of my life
And it's so clear
1 I long to have you
I long to hold you
I’d like to see this through
And grow old with you
1 I miss you, I’d kiss you
And this too, I can’t resist you
3 I miss you… I wish to have you here
So I can kiss you
With passion, deep and sincere
3 And this too…
Let me whisper into your ear
Can't resist you 
Cause you're the love of my life
And it's so clear
1 Don't you know I'm thinking of you
On these empty and lonely nights
Yea I can tell what you're thinking
Cause I always got you here inside
2 I miss you 
I want to have you here
So I can kiss you
Don't ever worry my dear 
I can't resist you 
Cause you're the love of my life
And it's so clear
2 I long to have you 
I long to hold you
I'd like to see this through
No one else out there
Makes me feel the way you do
1 I miss you
I want to have you here
So I can kiss you
Don't ever worry my dear
I can't resist you
Cause you're the love of my life
And it's so clear
3 I long to have you
I long to hold you
I'd like to see this thru
No one else out there
Makes me feel the way you do
2 I wanna hold you 
I wanna have you
I'd like to see this thru
2 No one else out there
Makes me feel the way you do
1 I long to have you 
I long to hold you
I'd like to see this through
CLINICAL DEPRESSION By Tom Jensen
Narrator: She finds a bottle of pills
And she holds them in her hand
Daughter: My whole world is falling down
And no one understands
There's only one way
to solve my problems
That's for me to go away
After I'm placed in my grave
I won't hear anyone say...
Parents:
She had the whole world in her hand
But she let all of us down 
Now she's gone to a faraway place
Though she's only six feet underground
Parents:
What on earth would make her think
That we didn't love her so?
What pushed her past the brink
To where there was no place left to go?
Daughter: Mom and dad
I never meant to hurt you
Nor cause you any pain
I guess that I imagined
My loss would be your gain
Parents:
Whatever happened in the past
Is nothing compared to this
That would pass just like the moon
With just a hug and kiss
Parents:
This is your one mistake
That'll never be undone
We used to have two children
Now we're left with only one
Everybody stumbles
When they learn to walk
Everybody mumbles
When they learn to talk
Parents:
What we've learned with age
Is that you give it your best shot
We prayed that you'd be strong
But you never even fought
Did you ever listen
To anything we'd taught?
When swimming against the tide
You give it everything you've got
Daughter:
With expectations oh so high
You nailed me to the wall
You placed me on a pedestal
So I was bound to fall
I ended up lying down
When I tried to stand too tall
And when I needed you the most
I was too afraid to call
Parents:
How could we have missed the truth
With the writing on the wall?
Why did you say nothing
When we should have known it all?
If only you had told us
For we can be so blind
If only had we known
We would have been more kind
Daughter:
Oh no, what have I done?
This shouldn't be my fate…
I realize I've made only one mistake
But now it's far too late
Parents:
Always remember that
You're daddy's little girl
The world would have been
Your oyster and you its pearl
Parents:
I would do anything
To give you a second chance
I would trade my soul eternally
Paying with a pound of flesh in advance
Parents:
Not only were you my daughter
you were my best friend
If only you had known
That it didn't have to end
Daughter:
Goodbye mama…
Goodbye papa…
May we meet again                                                                                                                    t

DORA
by Tom Jensen
Nicknamed
Dora the explorer 
For
being such a horror
You
showed me a good time
Then
made me lose my mind, yeah
If
this squirrel had a nut
He’d
store it in your butt
Don’t
you turn your back to me
Before
I’ve gained your trust
Once
they kick your dick in the dirt
All
the money in the world
Won’t
buy back your self-worth
Or
take away the hurt
You
can try to hide the fact
That
your whole soul got jacked
But
there’s no use trying to catch 
What
has slipped right through the cracks
No
more fight left in the dog
No
more corn left on the cob
Looks
like the thief has just been robbed
And
he knows the cops in on the job
Seems
you don’t know…
What
you’ve been missing
Until
what was working…
Suddenly
isn’t
Try
changing your mind 
While
you’re serving time
In
a solitary prison
Not
bound by chains
Though
what remains
Seems
utterly insufficient
Alone
at sea
Drifting
hopelessly
Yeah,
and you call it fishing…
Save
that worried mind
Not
for what you’re afraid to find…
But
rather on what you’ve been missing
Take
some advice from me
To
help yourself break free
From
this invisible prison 
Just
to catch a break
You’ll
just have to take 
Something
when it isn’t given
Embracing
heartache
Was
your greatest mistake
That
you keep on reliving
In
this game you’re playing
And
not participating 
That
don’t lead to winning! 
MONUMENTS
 By Tom Jensen
Time…
is always of the essence…
Though
we don’t know 
if
it’s always been present…
Oh,
but of course it’s a gift…
Well,
I guess that depends
On
what you do with it
When
it’s yours…
Was
it something significant?
Though
we know that sometimes 
there
is elegance
even
in remedial chores…
It’s
who you’re with 
And
not what you do
That’s
led me here
Standing
in front of you
And
beside you – 
Always
behind you
Because
you know
You’ve
let me live 
Right
inside of you…
For
year after year
You’ve
been there 
To
say you care
I
think of time as a monument
A
shrine to the moments 
that
we’ve shared
Time…
is always of the essence…
Though
we don’t know 
if
it’s always been present…
Oh,
but of course it’s a gift…
I
love you more than 
Classic
Rock n’ Roll
The
last time I felt like this
Was
so many years ago…
It’s
who you’re with 
And
not what you do
That’s
led me here
Standing
in front of you
For
year after year
You’ve
been there 
To
say you care
I
think of time as a monument
A
shrine to the moments 
that
we’ve shared
DISCIPLE
OF DIRT By Tom Jensen
Just
what will break the spell?
So
many claim to know
Yet
so few tell
Why
is that so?
Maybe
it's just as well?
To
just let it go...
Ah
what the hell?
There's
only one way to know
Whether
to buy or sell
On
which road to go
There's
only one man in the know
Though
long ago he fell
So
what's a disciple of dirt
Like
me to do?
No
one left to follow
No
one to lead me
A
blind detective
In
a world full of clues
Only
able to be captured
No
one to free me
So
many choices
Yet
so little time to choose
I
want to hide away
Where
no one can see me
So
much to gain
But
even more to lose
I'll
rest in the safety that
No
one else will ever be me
So
what if my book of poetry
Lies
dusty on the shelf
My
inspiration's been lost and found
By
someone else
My
dreams about tomorrow?
Ah
who the hell even cares?
Every
day we all take
A
good look in the mirror
And
wonder if it's time
To
face our fears:
Are
we burned up?
Are
we burned out?
Or
maybe there's no flame at all
With
no desire to climb
There's
no risk to fall
So
we stick to safe ground
Like
a hamster on a wheel
Lacking
love and hate
So
there's nothing left to feel.......
LOVELY
INFINITY by Tom Jensen
Have
a lovely infinity
Were
the last words
you
said to me
A
little piece of poetry
Now
there's a lot in a little
A
lot of thought in that riddle
That's
the reason
behind
the rhyme
When
your ears hear
something
pleasing
As
gears start turning
in
your mind
Something
that'll get you thinking
Forget
or forgive a problem
Other
than smoking and drinking
We
know that's not gonna solve it…
I
don't have a drinking problem
I've
got a drinking solution
I
live in a world
With
so much pollution
I
live with it in my blood
As
dirt runs through my veins
I
pour it in my cup
And
I drink it up like rain
I
don't have a drinking problem
I've
got a drinking solution
I
tried to give it up
But
I figured what's the use?
If
and when I put it down
I'll
just pick up something else
I've
learned from my past by now
I
just can't control myself
My
heart is beating far too fast
Yet
my love is for a false prophet
I
aimed for first but finished last
Now
I'm hooked on getting off it
I
started drinking
to
drown my sorrows
But
I gave it up
When
trouble learned to swim
I
treaded water for so long
I
never noticed how deep I was in
I've
chosen some wrong selections
So
don't ask me for any directions
I
can only tell you where not to go
I
can't explain the ways of the world
I
can't show you where to dive for pearls
I
guess there are just some things
You
have to know
`
I
keep my eyes peeled for angels
While
I'm living in the world of sin
I
can't tell you where I'm going
Only
where I've been
ON
THE ROCKS By Tom Jensen
(for
female vocalist)
When
he calls you up
You
drop everything
As
time itself stops
When
the telephone rings
He
inspires the love song
You’re
whole body sings
The
moment that he talks
Your
heart begins to soar
For
he gives you wings
But
somewhere
it
all went wrong
Along
with
so
many other things
Now
you’re cold as ice
and
on the rocks
Told
yourself
you
don’t care anymore
Doesn’t
matter
how
many presents he brings
Heart
wrenching pain
is
now your companion,
your
refrain
Your
rock of Gibraltar,
your
new ball and chain
Feel
like a jilted bride
left
all alone in the rain
As
all your ideals
have
just been
flushed
down the drain
When
what you found
at
the altar was just
a
crutch and a cane
Yet
ever since you let him go
You’ve
longed to return
To
the face, the arms,
you
used to know
Guess
that’s just
how
this story goes
Now
you want him back
But
what’s inside
you
won’t let it show
Yes,
ever since
you
let him leave
One
single memory burns
One
that changed
your
previous beliefs
You
dry your eyes
and
hide your grief
You
realize the tables turned
Your
heart's been stolen
and
he’s the thief
Heart
wrenching pain
is
now your companion,
your
refrain
Your
rock of Gibraltar,
your
new ball and chain
Feel
like a jilted bride
left
all alone in the rain
As
all your ideals
you’ve
just flushed
down
the drain
When
what you found
at
the altar was just
a
crutch and a cane
CAN'T
HAVE THAT by Tom Jensen
The
latest polls show
That
when the people say "yes"
Our
leaders say "no"
I
was taught that it was us versus them
Now
I’ve learned that them is us
But
I’m not talking about your Average Joe
Just
of those who try to buy our trust
Here’s
a list of things the peasants want
Well
surely they can’t have all that!
Just
give them these stale loaves of bread
And
then we’ll raise the tax!!!!
Society
at large...Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics
to the core...has become diseased
All
I need is one believer
To
inspire me to dig just a little bit deeper
Society
at large...Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics
to the core... has become diseased
All
they need is one good reason
To
get me off of this charge of treason
Society
at large... Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics
to the core... has become diseased
When
I hear the word lobbyist 
My
right hand reaches for my gun
When
it comes time for talking politics
People
get paid to keep us dumb

****WARNING EXPLICIT LYRICS, ADULT THEMES,
DIRTY THOUGHTS & SHIT THEY DON'T WANT
YOU TO KNOW IS IN THIS M*THAF*CKA********
"I'm not gonna lie... I wrote and read all this shit...

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

KNEELING
By Tom Jensen
It's
time to inspire
I
think that I'm ready
I
finally stopped shaking
Though
I'm still not
Quite
fully steady
It
has come that time
To
try to walk by myself
If
I need some assistance
At
least I have someone else
Someone's
who's vowed to help
You
see I've fallen down
And
just laid there 
on
the floor
I
never made a sound
No,
I never asked for your help
I
thought I could do it by myself
But
that just led
to
empty feelings
As
a deeper sadness
grew
inside
When
what I needed
was
healing
And
to gain back
some
of my pride
That
would bring
back
to life
The
part of me
that
died...
But
it never really died
I
found it was only sleeping
So,
I wasn't afraid to cry
No,
I wasn't afraid of weeping
I
knew I was
growing
cold inside
When
my tears
they
started freezing
That's
when I knew
I
had to open my eyes
I
couldn't yet stand
So
I began by kneeling
And
I got to where
the
air was warm
As
slowly, I went
from
the lowly
To
where I started
to
regain my form
It's
time to inspire
I
think that I'm ready
I
finally stopped shaking
Though
I'm still not
Quite
fully steady
It
has come that time
To
try to walk by myself
If
I need some assistance
At
least I have someone else
Someone's
who's vowed to help...
REST
IN PEACE By Tom Jensen
When
the flames rose up
I
watched my house burn down
As
everything I had
Lay
smoldering on the ground
Yet
I wasn't sad
For
me and my cats got out
But
I got this sinking feeling
That
there was something else....
I
walked over to the lawn
Began
rummaging around
That's
when I remembered
My
ears didn't hear the sound
Of
a piercing shriek
Yelling
at me to wipe my feet
Saying
wash your hands twice
Before
you come touching me...
Oooooh.....
that's
right.....
Oooops....
she
must have been asleep...
So
when someone asks me,
"How's
my wife?"
I
say, "May she rest in peace"
CHAMELEON
By Tom Jensen
She
changes the color of her eyes
Every
once and awhile…
But
that’s all right with me
Sometimes
strangers take her by surprise
So
she’s always quick to flash a smile
Because
life is full of compromise
And
that’s not a bad way to be
She
hates it when I preach
And
she knows that she was born to teach
And
baby, dreams are free
Anything
you seek is achievable
Once
you convince yourself it’s believable
I
think I’ve found it…
And
I can’t wait for you to see
I
think I’ve found it…
And
I can’t wait for you to see
I
think I’ve found it…
To
any locked door we have the key
Will
you take my hand and follow me?
Here
and now and eternity?
I
think I’ve found it…
And
I can’t wait for you to see
To
any locked door…
We
have the key
Will
you take my hand
And
follow me?
DEVIL’S
FRIEND by Tom Jensen
I
can’t quit it 
Let
me hit it 
Oh
won’t you let me in?
I’ve
been sinning 
Since
the beginning 
And
I don’t want that to end
I
keep learning 
While
I’m burning 
I’ve
become the Devil’s friend
What
I’m saying 
Is
I’m still playing
It
won’t be a pretty end…
I
been high for a long time
I’ve
been dry even longer
Out
in the sunshine
The
truth just gets stronger
I
was hiding in my cave
And
that’s no place to get saved
See
a man in full retreat
That’s
when he’s easiest to beat
Well
I just hid my head
‘Til
the world thought I was dead
Gone,
lost and hidden away
Far
from society I strayed
Trapped
in a world I couldn’t face
One
where I quickly lost my place
Finding
solace in defeat
Told
myself I can’t compete
FOLLOWING
THE BLIND
Such
a waste of time…
Following
the blind
Open
up your eyes
Haven’t
you realized?
‘Tis
better to lead them…
And
still be breathing
Than
it is to follow
And
be the one left bleeding
Never
wading in the springs of freedom….
And
not understanding these things I speak of
Contemplating
something hollow and misleading
And
it brings many things…
Such
as a false disguise by a gypsy king
In
his lies we discover many truths…
Through
his eyes we uncover his abuse
And
his song of sorrow so many sing
For
only a fool would break the sole rule…
Of
the creator of thought
The
earth shaker
The
maker of everything
And
all that there is to believe in or be bought
Is
there really a tomorrow?
After
you’ve just eaten the forbidden fruit of Eden?
Ummm…nah,
probably not
THIS
VERY ROOM by Tom Jensen
(for
a female vocalist)
These
simple pleasures
Shall
forever dull my pain
For
even though he may be gone
Still
my memories of him remain
Even
though I am here with you
We
both know we're not alone
He's
in my head, right here, right now
As
if he was standing in this very room
(He
says:)
Has
she ever called out my name
When
you two were lying in bed?
Did
she ever scream out in pain
I
can't get him out of my head!
Has
she ever said that I was to blame
Yes,
I'm sure that's what she said
Did
she ever to you complain
That
she'd be better off dead?
I'm
sure that she did
So
hard to keep these feelings hid
I'm
sure that she did
It's
such a tough thing to be living with
I
try not to think of him
For
there's so much to think about
Too
many truths that I've discovered
Though
to this day still I have my doubts
He
led me by the collar
Then
tied me to a string
And
left me hitched to this post
After
promising me everything
Even
though I am here with you
We
both know we're not alone
He's
in my head, right here, right now
The
same as if he was standing in this very room
And
he won't be leaving anytime soon

DIRTY THOUGHTS & SHIT THEY DON'T WANT
YOU TO KNOW IS IN THIS M*THAF*CKA********
"I'm not gonna lie... I wrote and read all this shit...
and I'm kinda f*cked up!" - Tom Jensen, collaborhythm
SOLITARY
PARADE by Tom Jensen
Alone
in the crowd
My
solitary parade
Shame
holds my hand
As
surrounding faces start to fade
We
all walk in unison
Chained
by despair
Footstep
after footstep
And
yet going nowhere
Never
asking directions
At
least never out loud
So
I just keep on walking
Blending
back in the crowd
Fading
into the darkness
Of
self-induced pain
Finding
my way
By
tapping my cane
After
wandering for hours
Searching
for my guide
I
finally closed my eyes
And
I looked deep down inside
With
these severed handcuffs
Now
left behind
I
may now travel on my own
For
I found the error of my ways
In
thinking that walking with shame
Was
better than walking alone
SOMEWHERE
by Tom Jensen
A
handful of empty promises 
all
about a better tomorrow
I’ve
found them to be all hollow
Leaving
me here with just this sorrow
Once
I had all I thought I’d need 
But
now I got nothing but memories
It’s
time to show me a sign
God,
let me know you’re up there…
Somewhere
Lately
it seems my faith 
has
somehow been misplaced 
I
hope it hasn’t disappeared 
And
that it’s still round here… 
Somewhere
When
the yellow sun is glowing way, way up high
You
could never expect to see any stars in the sky
But
you know they’re up there…
Somewhere
But
it can boggle the mind 
just
what goes on…up there 
Surely
the stars still shine 
some
places sometimes… 
Somewhere
Yet
where we come from a
nd
where we all go surely I don’t know 
But
everything here had to come from… 
Somewhere
It’s
lonely in the dark on a cold night
Feeling
without an ember, without a spark
Clinging
to emptiness oh so tight
Yet
you know love is inside you…
Somewhere
KEEPING
UP By Tom Jensen
Once
I found the key to my mind
But
then I dropped it and lost it
Right
before I could unlock it....
So
now wherever I go I carry my phone
And
I keep my friends inside my pocket
I've
been at peace with myself
Despite
my fighting daily
Suddenly
I've been seeing myself
In
a whole new light lately
I've
been recently sorting out
Business
partners from friends
And
I've learned a lot about
Who
I am and so many other things...
I've
been digging myself deeper in debt
Keeping
up with the Jones
I've
been pawning the hardest work off
On
to my newly cloned twin
I've
been living in a glass house
And
throwing stones and...
I've
been hiding my head low
Every
time I hear a phone ring
'Cause
I don't wanna be a number, baby
Even
if it's number one
It's
thinking in binary code
That
first drove me crazy
Once
I got computer smart
I
found myself being socially dumb
As
well as irrevocably numb
SPINNING
By Tom Jensen
It
is said that every 
body
is a temple
So
surely somewhere in here 
there's
a place of healing
Lately
I've found my hands 
folded
and praying
Though
I'm not sure 
if
I should be standing, 
sitting
or kneeling
I've
been having 
the
strangest of feelings 
But
I can't quite 
put
my finger on it
Though
I know 
there
is a key 
unlocking
and revealing
That
which I have been 
searching
and seeking
Still
I have yet to 
lay
my hands upon it
In
all of these -- 
my
wheelings and dealings
Perhaps
I lent it, 
lost
it or pawned it
For
this isn't how 
I
planned it
I've
slowly become 
an
army of one
I'm
beginning to sense 
that
I'm surrounded
As
around and around 
and
around I'm being spun
And
I spin...
Seems
I can't win
Yet
I'll die before 
I
ever surrender
So
I fight...
My
own insides
And
all these memories 
I
don't want to remember
I
can't lie...
Or
try to hide
In
this journey 
of
mine to venture
Into
the very 
core
of my mind
Just
to see what 
is
at its center
So
I pry...
From
here outside
Whenever
I find a room 
with
a chained door
That
I know still has 
yet
to be explored 
One
that some day 
I
shall have to enter
PLEDGE
By Tom Jensen
Globalization
without exploitation
Should
be the pledge 
of
this next generation
The
goal set forth 
for
this new millennium
More
songs that unite...
That's
right...
I'm
penning them
So
who is with me? 
(thunderous
clapping and applause)
Alright
now who is against me?
(solo
person clapping fades out)
The
only weapon you need is love
To
destroy any potential enemies
It's
thoughts like these that make me
The
most dangerous man in the world
Someone
that can teach these beliefs
To
all of Mother Earth's 
little
boys and girls
Every
arm in arm
Each
hand in hand
That's
the one nation
For
which I'll stand
TIMES
UP by Tom Jensen
My
misdirected passion
Has
led to many lashes
Put
all my eggs in one basket
As
if you even had to ask it
I
made a rash decision 
And
did something I wish I didn’t
Now
everything is broken
All
black with ash and smoking
As
I’ve lost all intention and desire
To
ever again go near or play with fire
I
know I’ve said this all before
But
this time I won’t be called a liar
I
don’t wanna feel
Like
love’s not real
But
I’ve grown sick and tired
Of
being used 
And
if it’s self-abuse
I’m
thinking I might retire
Take
up another trade
In
my old age
Hey,
this gun’s for hire
Got
a few bullets left
But
at least I’m outta debt
So
what if my plan backfired?
Sure
you can save for a rainy day
Then
watch as a typhoon comes your way
You
can look around there’s no escape
Right
now you are face to face with the wave
Sometimes
it’s water 
and
sometimes it’s mud
Sometimes
it’s floating debris 
coming
to f*ck you up!
Sometimes
it’s earned 
and
sometimes bad luck
Sometimes
you jump 
when
you should have ducked!
Time’s
up!

****WARNING EXPLICIT LYRICS, ADULT THEMES,


DIRTY THOUGHTS & SHIT THEY DON'T WANT
YOU TO KNOW IS IN THIS M*THAF*CKA********
"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

Everybody's

Baby,

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

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

ALWAYS
MOVING By Tom Jensen
I
only free my mind
when
it's closing time
I
only find my way home
when
I am truly alone
The
only doors open
Are
the ones
I
can't slam shut
The
only lesson
I've
yet to learn
Is
that enough is enough
I
always find 
myself
moving
But
it's not always up
The
only piece of mind
I
ever find
Is
lying on the floor
and
yeah that's tough
No
this is not
another
fiction
So
far, far from a fable
I'm
simply biding my time
For
as long,
as
long as I am able
But
don't get me wrong
I'd
never sell myself short
I'd
be the man with the gavel
If
the world was a court
In
another time
On
another day
Things
might not have
Been
this way
But
when I woke up
I
put on my shoes
Came
to this conclusion
We
all gotta pay our dues
But
just what device
do
you use
To
measure wasted time?
And
just who
made
the ladders
We're
supposed to climb?
I
guess that's just part
of
the great mystery
The
Rubik's cube
we
must all unfold
Something
accidentally
deleted
When
they were
writing
history
Just
another piece
of
paper discarded
As
they were walking
down
the road
END
GAME By Tom Jensen 
Dow
Jones fell down so hard he can’t get up today 
Just
part of their plan, easier for them that way 
Happiness
to them is when only one percent does okay 
For
us ninety-nine others just stand in their way 
The
pennies your grandmother saved ain’t worth nothing now 
Unpaid
taxes were due so they’re taking her house 
Moving
men came for her stuff the cops threw her out 
Can
you expect to be next - oh, there’s little doubt 
There're
eyes in the sky you can’t see that are watching you 
And
big brother is like Santa Claus and it knows what you do
To
some it’s a surprise while others know it’s true 
TVs
full of lies because Yeah, they own that, too 
The
New World Order’s rapidly gaining control 
Global
domination is their only goal 
Their
master plan, their end game 
Go
watch Alex Jones 
One
press of the button 
and
they can turn off your soul 
Bilderberg’s
the puppet master 
That
pulls the strings 
Causing
organized chaos and disasters 
to
make themselves kings 
They've
been getting there faster 
while
collecting their diamond rings 
As
Paris just got plastered 
after
they took everything 
One
card, one chip, one lone voice 
that
tells you what to do 
One
false step, one wrong move 
and
they’ll be coming after you 
Listen
closely wait for it…
here
comes the plot twist: 
Our
only real fear are these global economic terrorists 
And
when they hear this they’ll add my name to their list 
The
spreading of information, oh yeah, they fear this 
Because
only when the people know can they resist 
But
it will take more than silent protest 
Mothers
will cry, many will die yet still we must try
Yes,
it is pure evil that lingers in our midst 
Together
we may stand… 
Together
we could fall… 
But
together we can form a fist
RAGE
By Tom Jensen
Rage…
It’s
surely cardinal if not primal
Seems
almost medieval 
and
during struggles for survival
When
focused it is unmatched 
and
perhaps even unequalled
In
the proper hands 
when
it’s well-harnessed
It’s
second to love 
in
having the greatest of powers
However
with each use 
its
sharpness becomes blunted
As
it loses its precious preciseness
Once
it becomes too tarnished
When
suddenly many become harmed
It
is sure cause for panicked alarm
So
you must first confine it
Hence
just to contain it
Find
out what provokes it
For
once rechanneled
You
can then re-aim it…
Away
from family and friends
And
those who stand beside you
At
the very least just make sure
That
they’re not standing in front of you
But
are far safely behind you…
For
when you rage out in great anger
All
in your path is subject to grave danger
Everyone
from cherished loved ones
To
complete and total strangers
ALWAYS
MOVING By Tom Jensen
I
only free my mind

some it’s a surprise while others know it’s true 
TVs
full of lies because Yeah, they own that, too 
The
New World Order’s rapidly gaining control 
Global
domination is their only goal 
Their
master plan, their end game 
Go
watch Alex Jones 
One
press of the button 
and
they can turn off your soul 
Bilderberg’s
the puppet master 
That
pulls the strings 
Causing
organized chaos and disasters 
to
make themselves kings 
They've
been getting there faster 
while
collecting their diamond rings 
As
Paris just got plastered 
after
they took everything 
One
card, one chip, one lone voice 
that
tells you what to do 
One
false step, one wrong move 
and
they’ll be coming after you 
Listen
closely wait for it…
here
comes the plot twist: 
Our
only real fear are these global economic terrorists 
And
when they hear this they’ll add my name to their list 
The
spreading of information, oh yeah, they fear this 
Because
only when the people know can they resist 
But
it will take more than silent protest 
Mothers
will cry, many will die yet still we must try
Yes,
it is pure evil that lingers in our midst 
Together
we may stand… 
Together
we could fall… 
But
together we can form a fist
RAGE
By Tom Jensen
Rage…
It’s
surely cardinal if not primal
Seems
almost medieval 
and
during struggles for survival
When
focused it is unmatched 
and
perhaps even unequalled
In
the proper hands 
when
it’s well-harnessed
It’s
second to love 
in
having the greatest of powers
However
with each use 
its
sharpness becomes blunted
As
it loses its precious preciseness
Once
it becomes too tarnished
When
suddenly many become harmed
It
is sure cause for panicked alarm
So
you must first confine it
Hence
just to contain it
Find
out what provokes it
For
once rechanneled
You
can then re-aim it…
Away
from family and friends
And
those who stand beside you
At
the very least just make sure
That
they’re not standing in front of you
But
are far safely behind you…
For
when you rage out in great anger
All
in your path is subject to grave danger
Everyone
from cherished loved ones
To
complete and total strangers

DIRTY THOUGHTS & SHIT THEY DON'T WANT

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

GAUGING TIME by Tom Jensen
Cracks upon the walls
Pacing up and down the halls
When the walls start closing in
Then the end will now begin
Freedom is stripped away
As today mirrors every other day
When time starts growing old
Then what a price we pay
You don’t gauge time by the clock
That’s hanging on the wall
You tell time by the calendar
That’s hanging in the hall
The time you got in
That’s not what it’s about
It’s the days you got left
Before they let you out
DYING DAY by Tom Jensen
I've given up on feeding my addiction
Wash my bleeding hands clean 
From this filthy affliction
Look up at the sky to guide my direction
Why oh why do I even try 
To strive for perfection
Get it up, get it out
Put another on the shelf
Rip in and pull it out
Give away another piece of yourself
Try to show what so many others hide
In their sense of pride
With their tongues they lied
And then became tongue-tied
And with a cross look they denied
Knowing not which law they abide in
Be it gin...sin...kin?
So they just play pretend
Yet where one man's rainbow ends...
Another's begins
At least I've found mine...
Never stop trying
Or else face regrets
On the day of your dying
Yes, the times are getting better
They say tomorrow is the day
Maybe then we can live forever
Or at the very least we can all live together
It sure sounds good - that much I'll say
For when we live the dream
We may finally sleep in peace
Holding and protecting
What was once so out of reach
The times are getting better
They say tomorrow is the day
Yesterday is history
Time to let it slip away
Let it out, free yourself, it's okay
The times are getting better
They say tomorrow is the day
You built your wall... now let it fall, it's okay
The times are getting better
They say tomorrow is the day
For hope and faith is what we need
The time is right to take up this creed
Finally something positive 
in which to believe
Aside from learning the obvious fact
That we all bleed
For once we have found the eternal spring
We can sit back and see what it will bring
Maybe countrymen, maybe kings...
Maybe even better things
The times are getting better
They say tomorrow is the day
Maybe then we can live forever
Or at the very least all together
It sure sounds good
At least that much I'll say
DAY TO DAY by Tom Jensen
So many things I long to tell you...
So many words I've yet to say...
Of course I know how much you hurt inside
But it gets a little bit better everyday
Where do you look to find salvation?
Is it of this world or up on high?
Yet separating one's self from one's heart
Is far worse than the starvation of one's own mind
Often living in reality
Sinks to living in neutrality
And eventually impartiality
For soon you begin
To live inside of a lie
As her thoughts scatter
She blinks her eyes
For her mind is rattled
To no one's great surprise
How much longer
Shall things carry
on this way?
There's only one
For sure who can say
She longs to give
Yet she still lives
day to day...
Day to dying day
FLY SWATTER OF LOVE by Tom Jensen
As my eyes stayed glued to the door
And the stairs that you'll walk up no more
A great pain it rang through my ears
If I cried out there'd be nobody left who cares
After getting the latest
message that you sent me
Yes, this I must confess
My chessboard was empty
Your silence sang to me in memory
like the newly fallen rain
Yet the pawn moves along
knowing it's only part of the game
As I left alone that night on the train
Simply no longer able to explain
That the vision I once saw of us
No longer looked the same
As inaudible words dribbled
Down the side of my face
I wondered what I was still doing
In this crazy place?
It seems the wine in my glass
I could no longer taste
My fears weren't in haste
This was all a big mistake
A butterfly in a web
Inside this cocoon I'm encased
A mugged man in Central Park
Without any bear spray or mace
Still sometimes inside my mind
You lay naked on the rug
As I come closer you extend
Your arms out for a hug
As I approach I fall in the hole
That you freshly dug...
I got squashed by
the fly swatter of love
just like a bug
MESSY ROOM By Tom Jensen
The smoke from my cigarette
encases me like a tomb
As the aura of my bitterness 
becomes happier with gloom
Don't you fret but can't you sense 
the oncoming distress?
When you live inside your mind 
because this world is a mess
Yes, there is danger out on the street
Faces of anger for you to meet
And some even stranger 
and others you can't see
The chosen ones that always were
Along with those that'll never be
What we have found are many faces walking
While looking down at the ground
Hear the echoing of malicious words
The first time they were ever heard
See the small hands that have grown
And the fists that have been thrown
Traversing the uneven roads 
that we have traveled
While watching the moral fabric that's unraveled
When a sweaty palm fuses with cold steel
A hand extends but does not feel
A pokered-face turns the tables after a bad deal
As fantasy vengeance has now become real
Pent-up aggression can no longer be concealed
Aim is taken and fate is sealed
Two eyes full of blood are suddenly revealed
As fantasy vengeance has now become real
Don't you fret but can't you sense 
the oncoming distress?
When you live inside your mind 
because this world is a mess
TEN FEET TALL by Tom Jensen
When you feel worn down
Like you're lacking control
Think of how far you've come
Not how far you have to go
I'm your lover awaiting your safe return
What keeps me warm is this love that burns
When you're lost in the cold
And don't know which way to turn
Think of my heart and soul
You're for what I yearn...
With you... I'm ten feet tall
And the world it seems so small
But I'm up so high...
Who will catch me when I fall?
It should be you since you put me here
Yet never before have I seen so clear
If you're lost in a blizzard feeling alone
Listen to my voice it'll lead you home
Your warm touch of tenderness
My flashlight in this wilderness
Through my descent down from way up on high
You've shown me what it is to be on the other side
With you... I'm ten feet tall and the world it seems so small
But I'm up so high... Who will catch me when I fall?
It should be you since you put me here
Yet never before have I seen so clear
When you're lost in the cold
Don't know which way to turn
Think of my heart and soul
You're for what I yearn...
STRANDED
by Tom Jensen
Hanging by a rope
We each cling to hope
Stranded on an island
Where screams fall silent
Giant crashing waves
No hope of being saved
Sailor standing on a dock
Sunrise is his clock
The moon rising overhead
The sailor falls dead 
The tide comes rolling in
The cycle ends
A new one begins
NO THANKS BABE By Tom Jensen
I said no thanks babe
No I don’t want that
If you end up looking like your momma
That’ll be too damn fat
I’m not looking for a one-night stand
I’m looking for a wife
Not looking to just share my bed
Looking to share my whole life
It’s not easy
chopping down family trees
They call me the gardener
when I’m raking up your leaves
How many men
have you been with?
Any history of disease?
I need to know it all
So answer if you please
CONCRETE PEOPLE
by Tom Jensen 
Concrete people like to hide behind gold
Concrete people will collect what they're owed
Concrete people leave you out in the cold
Concrete people hate most to be exposed
Concrete people ain't got no souls
They traded them in for high priced clothes
Concrete people with their hearts of stone
Even sold out my beloved rock and roll
Concrete people never hang their heads low
Concrete people never let their feelings show
Concrete people keep their statues in rows
Concrete people always reap what they sow
But me, I ain't no concrete man
I mess things up every now and then
I slave for those who do me wrong
And I find relief in the rock and roll song
Rock and roll song
Rock and roll song
Concrete people think I'm wasting my time
Concrete people never step out of line
Concrete people hate the shirt that I wear
Concrete people find me too hard to bare
Concrete people ain't got no souls ...
They traded them in for high priced clothes
Concrete people with their hearts of stone
Even sold out my beloved rock and roll
And me, I ain't no concrete man 
I mess things up every now and then
Slave for those who do me wrong
And I find relief in a rock 'n roll song
Rock and roll song
Rock and roll song
Rock and roll song
KNOWING THE KNOW by Tom Jensen 
I don’t try to teach 
I don’t try to preach 
That’s not the way 
That people get reached
When I speak
I don’t try to say
I don’t try to tell
You’re not looking to buy
I’m not trying to sell
I just try to show
And you know...
That that works pretty well
You don’t have to be a farmer
In order to live off the land
Nor do you have to be taught
In order to understand
You choosing right or wrong
Whether you build or you break 
Is not the reason I sing this song
Or why I fight through all this heartache
Some people just get it 
They just know the know 
But the amount of time it takes for the others 
Is so, so slow 
I don’t know what all the reasons are 
Why it takes so much time 
I haven’t figured out everything yet 
Why some people are so goddamn blind! 
SUMMER'S THE TIME
by Tom Jensen
Summer's the time just to let the sun shine
To relax and unwind
To be worry free a leave the past behind
What do you see up there in the clouds?
I see a rocket ship that's never coming down
What do you see in the sky?
I marvel at the beauty of a blue jay 
in midflight right before my eyes
Summer's the time
Grab a friend and come along
Forget what went wrong
Spend a day filled with laughter and song
Tell me how does it feel?
Like the troubles of the world
Are so far away they're gone?
I'm glad you took my advice
But what took you so long?
Summer's the time
To find some peace of mind
It's the year's new dawn
A time to renew your strength
So you can carry on...
So come on!
So come on... So come on... So come on... So come on...
So come on... So come on... So come on...
Come on!
OCEANSIDE by Tom Jensen
Here I sit by the
side of the ocean
Wondering just what
the ocean sees in me
Sometimes I wonder if
I should go swimming?
If in this game
I'm playing I'm winning?
And if when the man
in the moon looks down
He's really grinning?
And if there's a God
Does he always know
When I'm sinning?
And if there's a God
Did he know this is how
My world would be?
For it's three o'clock
in the morning
And I ain't been to bed
Still trying to sort out all those
Hopes and dreams
That've been floatin'
around in my head
It's all on my shoulders now
And there are still
answers to find
Somewhere and somehow
At least one more
mountain to climb
Pictured it in my mind
It's only been truly seen
by the blind
And traversed by the lame
With peaks of pleasure
Guarded by valleys of pain
Where once you've
tasted the water
You'll never be thirsty again
But the problem isn't where but when?
WHICH IS WHICH By tom jensen
I know that you know that
Sometimes this world 
can turn cold
And that some times
Untruths must be told
And that we have to tell lies…
To those we love the most…
We must shield their 
ears and eyes…
I know that you know that 
Some things are 
and aren’t meant to be
And also that some things 
you can touch and feel 
but never see
But beware and be aware…
Because they’re still there…
Feelings are sight for the blind…
I know that you know that
Some fears are apparitions 
that aren’t really there
And that some fears 
Really make you scared
So it’s best to realize…
Discern which is which…
That’s when they’ll 
call you wise…
I know that you know that 
some people come and go
And also that some people 
won’t ever leave you alone
And I know the reason why…
I don’t have wings…
But I can still fly…
Yes, I can still fly
MY BEST FRIENDS by Tom Jensen
One day at a time
Step by step
Suck toxins down
With every breath
In my time of weakness
I was never all alone
I despise the day
Tobacco seeds were sewn
Hand in hand
Right by my side
And when we went
Our separate ways
A part of me died
My twenty little friends
Though small in size
Became my foes
Whom I now despise
When the truth is clear
They kill you slow
There’s no pleading ignorance
When everybody knows
FOREVER By Tom Jensen
In overwhelming complexity
Is where I find the most simplicity
Especially when it comes down to you and me
During times that some minds 
might deem as adversity
Well I shine for it seems 
to bring out the best in me
I have yet to fail when you've tested me
For what could have brought out the worst in me
It keeps leading me on towards one certainty...
That both you and me we were meant to be
Together?
Together...
Forever?
Forever...
Once upon a time I wasn't sure
But I don't feel that way anymore
In this love story there's a lesson learned
True love is the fire that doesn't burn
It keeps you safe you feel cozy and warm
Together?
Together...
Forever?
Forever...
FIELDS OF TIME By Tom Jensen
I've been growing up
And am slowly becoming a man
I'm twenty- four years old
And doing the best that I can
I've got big dreams
But I've had to put them on hold
Thus the way it presently
looks to me
Is that my one true calling
might never be
As my big book of poetry
Just keeps on getting
dusty and old
And the people
who I am trying to help
They no longer trust in me
Gave up on waiting for me
To finally fulfill my destiny
Such a waste of a mind like mine
Wasting its time on carpentry
I've got to simply find the time
To collect up my rhymes
If it is still not too late
To change the world's fate
Because some of my stuff
is so great
Somebody has to publish me
Just look at all the seeds I've sewn
Look and see how they've grown
Throughout the fields of time
It damn near blew my mind
That nearly all the weeds are gone
Oh see the sun
and how it shines
Not a single cloud left in the sky
Now I don't mean
to sound so surprised...
If there's a God
then he or she knows
Just how hard I have tried
He or she sees the seas
I have swam
And knows all
the mountains I've climbed
Sees how much I have grown
Knows of all the tears
I have cried
Senses every fear that I hide
When no one cares that I am
Sitting here all alone
Pondering how to get
blood from a stone
But lately I have since
changed my tune
I now get to see
the flowers in bloom
Reaping the rewards
of years of hard work
On this lazy afternoon
Feeling the sun and its warmth
As if every month is
April, May or June
THERE IT GOES by Tom Jensen
Ninety nine percent of my time is spent alone
And I give the one percent to the f*cking hoes
I’m good for dick and not much else
I have a hard time controlling myself
Those that I love I hurt the most
In time you’ll find I’ve become a ghost
You think you see me
I’m not really there
Behind my fake concern
I don’t really care
Ninety nine percent of my time is spent alone
And I give the one percent to the f*cking hoes
She turns a trick… Well that’s a treat
We get a room… Take her off the street
Hey babe
How ‘bout breakfast in bed
Could you give me a hand?
And maybe some head
Ninety nine percent of my time is spent alone
And I give the one percent to the f*cking hoes
Some have a job… and others have a hobby
I got an excuse to leave… when hard gets floppy
I leave ‘em hot
And I leave ‘em soggy
I leave ‘em cold 
With no, “I’m sorry”
Ninety nine percent of my time is spent alone
And I give the one percent to the f*cking hoes
You better get it while you can…
And there it goes
STORY OF MY LIFE by Tom Jensen
I just picked up my pen
It’s been God knows when
Since I really tried
To see something through to the end
And now I’m back at it again
Don’t know just where to begin
Sifting through the rubble
Digging myself out of trouble
Won’t someone come and burst my bubble?
Unentrap me and I’ll simply walk away happily
I’m just waiting for the time to be right
Always hesitating…
That’s the story of my life
Probably cost me a dozen loving wives
To think that I might have made it
Had I acted on what I knew
Everyone knows I’ve always said it
But why are there some things
That we can just never do?
FOURTEEN DAYS
by , Tom Jensen Big Suna
Nine o'clock in the morning
And I'm yawning
I can't get out of bed
Can it be that I'm dreaming
'Cause this feeling 
Is still inside my head
And my soul has been lifted
It has drifted
Tryin' to fly away
and although I'm still tired
 I'm inspired at the start 
of a brand new day
I haven't played 
in fourteen days
Just laid in bed 
and hid away
I covered my tracks 
and then I covered my head
I haven't played 
in fourteen days
Just following my foolish ways
I'm takin' my time 
so don't you think 
that I'm dead
And I never heard 
a single word 
of what they said:
Behind my back 
Or in front of my face
Hmmm....
Yeah!
Alright!
Ooh...hoo...hoo...
Nine o'clock in the morning
and I'm yawning
I can't get out of bed
Can it be that I'm dreaming
'Cause this feeling 
Is still inside my head
And my soul has been lifted
it has drifted
tryin' to fly away
and although I'm still tired
 I'm inspired
at the start 
of a brand new day
I haven't played in fourteen days
Just laid in bed and hid away
I covered my tracks 
and then I covered my head
I haven't played 
in fourteen days
Just following my foolish ways
I'm takin' my time 
so don't you think 
that I'm dead
Fourteen days 
and fourteen nights
But I tell you I'm alright...
And deep down inside I'm new
you will find out that it's true
Hoo!
BEWARE OF THE SNOOGINS by Tom Jensen
I said… 
Beware of the snoogins
— yeah, yeah 
You said you knew what you were doing — yeah, yeah 
Your mistakes are far from few and in between in…
Sometimes…
You give the word fu%ed up a whole meaning
You say I'm hurting myself 
I say better than hurting someone else
Oh oh you make a little lovin' 
Ah ah bun in the oven 
Uh oh splish splash, get fat 
Uh uh dumpster baby in the trash 
Oh oh drive to the pier 
Uh uh all your problems disappear 
Uh oh daughter in the water 
Uh uh son added to the slaughter 
These crazy kids today... 
They don't know what they're doing 
They're killing themselves...
each other.... And lives are being ruined 
Mom and dad are too busy working 
To know son Johnny is a real f*%^@g jerk 
And... 
It's just more time on this rhyme 
That I got to spend working
Poor, poor teacher 
Stuck with problem child Billy 
What the little boy needs is some attention 
Instead he gets slapped silly 
I said beware of the snoogins — yeah, yeah 
You said you knew what you were doing — yeah, yeah 
Your mistakes are far from few and in between in 
Sometimes you give the word fu%ed up a whole meaning 
You say I'm hurting myself 
I say better than hurting someone else 
Oh oh Ah ah Uh oh Uh uh 
You make a little lovin' 
Bun in the oven 
Splish splash 
Get fat 
Dumpster baby in the trash...
ROCK STAR DREAMS by Tom Jensen
I’ve been living for a legacy since seventeen
That’s when music filled my head with rock star dreams
I’ve been tightrope walking 
up against the razor’s edge of infinity
Since perception is just one’s illusion of reality
It’s not strange for my brain to change the scenery
Sure, they say the truth comes with a price
Sometimes you give more than just your life
Paying the ultimate sacrifice
You say you don’t think twice
But we ALWAYS think twice…
I was craving
Retracing my past
There were things worth saving
I see that looking back
What now seems ancient
A newly uncovered artifact
I’ve been contemplating
How best to back track
What will be waiting?
A part of me’s afraid to ask
I’ve been living to be a legend
Since the age of twenty seven
I’m always giving in to the present
That’s the quickest way to get to heaven
Lately I’ve been debating
How much more blood we should keep bleeding
It’s increasingly frustrating
Being forced to follow someone else’s misleading
I’ve been growing nervous of everything I believe in
I don’t wanna be led by rhyme I’d rather be led by reason
Like you, I’m still trying to find more of my kind
I keep hoping for a world that’s fair…
We know it’ll never be even
HEAVY MACHINES By Tom Jensen
I try to comprehend infinity
While operating heavy machinery
And that’s just by using my brain
While slowly jogging in the passing lane
Of time and space and rhyme and plane
I’m trying to see just what makes me
Superior to royalty probably because of my belief
In fairness and equality 
to the nth degree for all humanity
Which unfortunately includes 
the sufferers of insanity
Stupidity, vanity…
Are you kidding me?
I have to fight for them, too?
Couldn’t we just let them be?
For each one of them 
just add one to get their I.Q. – yup….it’s two….
When that’s your crew what the hell you gonna do?
It sure beats me…So I ask you
The time has come
Something must be done
The time has come
We are the chosen ones
The time has come
No longer can we run from this
Sure I talked a lot of s%^t
But I never made a stand
Can’t take back any of it
Well that’s not what I have planned
Time to let the new revolution begin
All this time I’ve been blaming myself
When I should have been blaming you and you….
And her and him
This crazy look inside my eye
Should tell you a little bit about me
There’s so much that I despise
So many things that keep me from being free
So let us make a list of the biggest causes 
Of our collective misery
LONELY CLOUDS by Tom Jensen
I find myself in a deep dark place
Looked in the mirror but couldn’t see my face
I tried to get up yet I could not stand
Held onto a memory but couldn’t feel my hands
So with this sky above so full of gloom
Foreshadowing impending doom
I’m thinking I’d be better off
Staying inside of my room
Such a thick layer of clouds
Seems the sun’ll never break through
And the way I feel about the weather
Is the same way I feel about you
Cold, dismal and dreary
Whenever you are near me
Everything has changed somehow
Once bright, happy and cheery
Things used to be so clear to me
But now there are only lonely clouds
Another Monday morning
Following a near sleepless Sunday night
Groggy, tired and yawning
Seems to be the story of my life
Waking up to a cold and breezy 
September morning
Feeling uneasy without any kind of warning
Perhaps I had a bad dream 
that I can’t remember
A door to my mind burst at the seams 
and I had to enter
Ghosts from my past are no longer trapped
And they are slowly gaining control
Skeletons from my closet now ask
Will you finally pay us what you owe?
Sleeping dogs have all begun to bark
There is just no avoiding this fact
Each day earlier the earth grows dark
Every night the sky shades a richer black
So with this sky above so full of gloom
Foreshadowing impending doom
I’m thinking I’d be better off
Staying inside of my room
Such a thick layer of clouds
Seems the sun’ll never break through
And the way I feel about the weather
Is the same way I feel about you
Cold, dismal and dreary
Whenever you are near me
Everything has changed somehow
Once bright, happy and cheery
Things used to be so clear to me
But now there are only lonely clouds
BEATS GROWING CORN By Tom Jensen
I’m just a farmer
growing marijuana
I don’t wanna harm ya
I’m not trying to alarm ya
Just here to tell you
That I bought a new shotgun
With the name on it of anyone caught
Trying to snatch my crops and run
I built some giant fences
To use as my defenses
Against anyone here
not coming to their senses
Grandma’s in the tower
feeling like king of the hill
She drools while she chews bullets
She’s got great aim and shoots to kill
My wife is in the greenhouse
pickin’ all my crops
While my youngest son spends his time
keeping an eye out for the cops
I’m not gonna harm ya
Not trying to alarm ya
Just be weary when you visit
a marijuana farmer
Wintertme around this place
you couldn’t feel any higher
Whenever we get cold we toss
another plant into the fire
The heat is always set
between eighty and ninety-five
It’s actually amazing
that we’re still alive
We’re just simple folks
having fun before we’re old
If you’re ever passing by
come on in from the cold
The door is always open
and the fire’s always warm
We all think that this is the life…
Hell….It sure beats growing corn
END OF THE ROAD
by Tom Jensen
I saw the light burning in your eyes
That alone should come as no surprise
I followed you... so many others have tried
When you said, "Yes" 
a bitter part of me died
Lead me to the end of the road
Where the sun sets down
To the end of the road
Where true happiness is found
To the end of the road
On the other side of town
To the end of the road
To where they finally lay me down
So many roads that I've walked down
Lying in the street so many things I've found
In the unswept corners 
is where the dirt hides
Where many people and things 
can give you a ride
Lead me to the end of the road
Where the sun sets down
To the end of the road
Where true happiness is found
To the end of the road
On the other side of town
To the end of the road
To where they finally lay me down...
My shoes are wearing out
Almost time for another pair
But I'll wear the ones I've got
Until I get there...
Until I get there...
Now I see the light burning in your eyes
That alone comes as no surprise
Following you I no longer live a lie
Out on the dark path I have found my guide
To lead me to the end of the road
Where the sun sets down
To the end of the road
Where true happiness is found
To the end of the road
On the other side of town
To the end of the road
To where they finally lay me down...
Finally lay me down...
Finally lay me down...
Down
LEAVING YOUR ROOTS by Tom Jensen
The pictures hanging on the wall
Paint the story of a hundred faces
The sparkle shining from my eyes
Should show you that I've traveled to so many places
I've been to France
I've been to Italy
But I'll never tell a soul
Just what that did to me
The fact that I ended up back here
Without reasons explained may seem unclear
Yet in order to clarify... you may ask me to verify...
But I cannot certify ... that I have been purified
The pictures hanging on the wall
Paint the story of a hundred faces
The sparkle shining from my eyes
Should show you that I've traveled to so many places
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
(leaving your roots)
Especially in the name of such trivial pursuits
(trivial pursuits)
Sometimes it's hard to leave your roots
(leaving your roots)
Especially in the name of such trivial, 
trivial pursuits...
PENNYWISE
by Tom Jensen
You can't be spiritual and material
It just goes against the grand paradigm
It's the same as saying you're pound foolish
Then just what's the point of being pennywise?
Oh...it's a rainy day
And with all those pennies saved
Oh...what will you spend them on?
Oh...it's a rainy day
As Nimbus clouds float overhead
Oh...how long until they're gone?
And all your money's been spent
On trinkets and other such trivial things
As you find your time has been lent
Not to paupers but to those who just wish to be kings
And queens who acquired their wealth
On broken dreams and other such self-serving schemes
On sickness not health caring only about the ends
And not about those who were caught in between
Or who's left out in the cold
Claiming that's out of their control
For it surely has no worth
If it's not something you can hold...
You can't be spiritual and material
It just goes against the grand paradigm
It's the same as saying you're pound foolish
Then just what's the point of being pennywise?
Oh...it's a rainy day
And with all those pennies saved
Oh...what will you spend them on?
Oh...it's a rainy day
As Nimbus clouds float overhead
Oh...how long until they're gone?
How long until they're gone?
LEARN FROM THE MASTERS 
by Tom Jensen
Today is the day I know that I will make it
When I was cast from the mold
Who would know that I'd break it?
In bitter fits of jealousy
There are those who can't take it
Pretend to walk in my shoes
When they know that they fake it
Be yourself don't try to be me
Open the door that'll set you free
My pen name Bob Dylan Junior is gone
I've stepped into the shoes
of a man named Tom
A poet, a writer, who dabbles in song
And learns from the masters
What he's known all along
Since I am a poet
I will fight you only with my pen
I'll drag your name through the mud
And then drag it through again
There's no need for fists
For fighting only leaves you bruised
I've learned that paper cuts never heal
When everybody has heard the news
When made known is your reputation
Then I win and you lose
Since I am a poet
I will try my very best
To separate myself from all others
And try to stand above the rest
Searching for what
hasn't yet been written
Though there's not much
that Dylan left
Be yourself don't try to be me
Open the door that'll set you free
My pen name Bob Dylan Junior is gone
I've stepped into the shoes
Of a man named Tom
A poet, a writer, who dabbles in song
And learns from the masters
What he's known all along
OH JUANITA by Tom Jensen
Oh Juanita....
Tell me the reasons why
You're collecting commissions
Off the rise and fall of people’s lives
Oh Juanita...
Tell me why did you lie?
I know it was for money
But what are the reasons behind...
Why some look and see people as colors
While others see people in binary code?
Why do the Jones make everybody jealous?
As the herd gets lured down Slaughter Road
Breath my last gasp breathe
Right before my financial death
As you place me in a pile
Along with all the rest...
When I told you to your face
That you were a disgrace
To the entire human race
No, you didn't like that...........
So quickly in haste
You cried... then you tried
To punch me in the face
I watched as you fell flat
Ha ha....
I just had to laugh:
What they say about me is that:
"He can be brilliant when he's being either cynical or lyrical"
What they say about you is that:
"She's such a b%tch I bet she pours black coffee on her cereal"
What do they say about me...oh gee...
"He grew up to be my child's hero"
What do they say about you...oooh
"She sends letters to people reducing them to numbers...
She spends too much time counting ones and zeros"
Oh Juanita...
you know I wrote this song for you
So that all of your friends
Can ask these questions of you:
Oh Juanita why do you lie?
Do you do it just for the money?
Does it make you feel superior?
Does it boost your sense of pride?
Oh Juanita...you make me wanna cry
LIGHT OR THE WHITE By Tom Jensen
It’s the same faces
In the same room
Only a different night
Just another wasted day
But it’s much more complicated
Than just wrong versus right
Dreams cast aside
And soon vanish out of sight
You better chose your side correctly
When it’s the light against the white
You can get pleasure through people
Or pleasure through things
But when the ship starts sinking
It’s time to cut your strings
Time to cut the lines
And make up your mind
Either lead the pack
Or else follow behind
The white or the light
It’s the fight of your life
Better choose right
Both cut like a knife
Either lifesaving surgery
Or else amputation
It’s a full time job
And there ain’t no vacation
IT COULD BE YOU 
by Tom Jensen Sandy
It could be you… Who makes my life complete
It could be you… The one who saves me from defeat
It could be you… The heart that sets my soul afire
It could be you…The one thing on this earth which I desire
It could be you… The reason I stay awake all night
It could be you… The best reason for my eyes to have sight
It could be you… Why all the others could never stay
It could be you…How I know everything’ll be okay
It could be you…. Why I’m blind toward other girls
It could be you…. Why I’m not deceived by shining pearls
It could be you… How I know that the best is inside
It could be you… The one single truth in a great ball of lies
It could be you… Why I’d let a good thing go
It could be you… That tells me everything I need to know
It could be you… For whom I’d risk all that I’ve gained
It is you… Why I’ll never be the same
It is true that I love you...
That is this song's new refrain
It could be you....
It could be you...
Yes it is you
SPREADING THE WORD by Tom Jensen
I just cracked my first beer
But I ain’t much fun 
‘til I had about eight more
That’s the only way I don’t think so clear
As I forget the harsh reality
That this world has in store
I imagine it’s mostly the same
For just about everybody like me
At least that’s what I claim
At least that’s what, so far, I see
The whole world’s going to hell
Because of money, because of technology
Because of greed
And of course it doesn’t help
When you’ve got six billion people
More than you need
Man’s the only animal who takes prisoners
The only species where
Someone can get something for nothing
We’re the only ones who pay taxes for welfare
We’re the only ones who hold
A finger on the button
Darwin was right
About everybody but us
We could use another plague…
We could use another flood
Many secretly agree with what I say
But no one’s willing to board that bus
We could use another world war
So we can spill some more of our blood
Yeah, there’s many who agree
But then say, “What…Who…Me?”
Would rather be sitting on the fence
Than hanging from a tree
No, no, no
They’d never make that big of sacrifice
No, no, no
They’d never take that advice
They only say, “You first!”
To which I respond, “Now that’s absurd!”
“If I was in the back of a hearse
Then there’d be no one left to spread the word.”
ALL IN GOOD TIME
by Tom Jensen
All in good time....
All in good time....
All in good time....
All in good time....
All in good time....
All in good time....
You will find what will find you
So don't let what's been left behind ever define you
As you learn that the world turns and time does, too
You know it's true
Let yourself heal and then become real again and
That's when you'll know... Your body, mind and your soul
Can love again
Can live again
That's when your flower can grow
Right now your pedals are closed
And I will share your secret 
so nobody else will ever know that...
All in good time
GIFT
by Tom Jensen
Sometimes I make myself cry...
We both know it's true
While other guys might lie...
I try to swallow my pride
It's a gift
It's a gift I give to you
Everybody dances for money
I dance for free
Everybody dances for money
I dance for free
Everybody's a slave to do something
I work for humanity
Everybody's got something to sell you
Is what they've been telling me
Everybody's got something to sell you
Is what they've been telling me
I stopped falling for advertisements
Once I bought into poverty
(Oh...come on boy!)
You don't care about the name you wear
When you don't have enough to eat
You don't care about the name you wear
When you don't have enough to eat
Lace and frills lead to unpaid bills
No electricity, water and heat
Once you have everything in life
There's nothing left to do but give
Once you have everything in life
There's nothing left to do but give
Just free yourself from this rat race
And say that you've lived
Sometimes I make myself cry...
We both know it's true
While other guys might lie...
I try to swallow my pride
It's a gift
It's a gift I give to you
BATTLE CRY by Tom Jensen
When our battle cry is save our shanty town
Then your duty to your country is served
When their false flag comes crashing down
You'll finally get what you deserve
So before we pledge our allegiance again
Best to know which side 
we’re really fighting for
For in this battle not everyone bleeds
No guns nor swords used in this kind of war
This is the fight for your soul
And it’s a battle of wills
In which your only friend is yourself
because bad advice kills
You'll need the strongest of convictions
Because very few ever change sides
Needless to say you must
choose wisely if you want to stay alive
So many say but not many do
Deceive with bitter lies
Only speak in half-truths
For this war for information
Is plagued by veils and disguise
The media is a just puppet
That tells tall tales and lies
 While the words of politicians ooze
Campaign speeches and promises so great
They'll say the choice now rests with you
You and your state control our nation’s fate
 Oh the false prophets are many
In a world full of masks
Some get paid to make up facts
When someone crooked gets attacked
 Yet the game is fixed
And it’s the board game RISK
And your country is the one that’s sacrificed
Because it wasn't your hands 
that rolled the dice
When our battle cry 
is save our shanty town
Then our duty to our country is served
When their false flag comes crashing down
We'll finally get what we deserve
DEAD SILENCE
by Justin Osowiecki Tom Jensen
I'm just another face
Here on the train
We fade, no names are exchanged
On the train
So close, so distant
Here on the train
No words, no words spoken
On our train
Whistle blows
On and off they flow
Dead silence all around
Empty eyes so cold
Dead silence surrounds me
Same suitcases, same routine
Nothing seems to change
Different faces, different names
Still nothing changes
Dead silence....
It's just another day
Here on the train
VOICES WITH FACES by Tom Jensen
I see faces on the wall
Mimicking my reflection
As I am pacing the hall
Without any direction
Eyes are crossed
Ts are dotted
I feel their stares
I’ve been spotted
My conscience has been multiplied
As voices now have faces
Fantasy and reality undivide
No longer kept in separate spaces
The walls are now closing in
The faces now are laughing clowns
The future will show just where I’ve been
The ceiling just came crashing down
Bloodied flesh
Splintered bone
Together mesh
Into one alone
ON DEFENSE by Tom Jensen
Sitting here all alone
Keeping one eye on the clock
And the other on the door
Should I go home?
Knowing this madness won't stop
And just sit back and relax
And see what's in store?
When your memory finally gives in
And you forget about where you've been
You can only think about where you're going
Hiding the pain that you can't relieve
All those lost feelings you find so hard to retrieve
Those thoughts you think that
You shouldn't be showing
Yet it is that which you truly believe
That so many others find it hard to conceive
That you know deep inside
That everyone should be knowing
Caught up here in the rat race of time
Slowly separating from the rest of mankind
Can't seem to free myself from my own mind
Whatever lies ahead 
I am willing to leave it all behind
Sitting here on the fence, man
Waiting for some kind of sign
Wanting to see the master plan
Through the eyes of the divine
Yet my patience is wearing thin
Perhaps I'll let this night pass
As I'm sleeping and let a new day begin
And continue my search 
for something to believe in
SOLVING PROBLEMS by Tom Jensen
Precision beats power and timing beats speed
I walk up to the biggest motherf*cker 
and see that he’s afraid of me
My defiance and disdain
Act as my suit of armor
Your reliance on the same old same old
Leaves you distressed while I get calmer
When things change
Chaos thrives
Those stuck in chains
Will not survive
Minds with walls
Will not evolve
The riddle remains
The puzzle’s unsolved
Cunning and wit can have the same effect
To soothe the savage into deep introspect
Or else prove to the farmer he’s incorrect
That a peaceful life is what is best
Yeah, you told me the price 
And yet knew not the value
The trouble was the bubble
They been trying to sell you
It’s gonna burst there’s no doubt
You were the first man in but the last one out
You lost your shirt, your spouse and then your house
You’re playing in the dirt 
so why you still running your mouth?
Punk! Life just damn knocked you’re ass out!
I suggest you stop talking and think about it
Cork that kettle before you go off spouting
Oh sh*t… he’s still dribbling toxins
And just the sight of him is making me nauseous
When I get like this it’s best to be cautious
It can lead to flying fists or else me dropping logic
I got answers to your questions 
either way the problem’s gettin’ solved, kid!
Precision beats power and timing beats speed
I walk up to the biggest mother*cker 
and see that he’s afraid of me
TIRED by Tom Jensen
We sat out in the rain because
We were just so tired of screwing up
A clap of thunder and she didn’t blink
She’s been hit with everything but the kitchen sink
Standing tall when you should have ducked
It’s quickest way to get f*cked up
As you’re the one left out in the rain
You think it’s time that maybe you changed
Got caught in the river and its turbulent flow
Got used to things that no woman should know
Got a decision that’s only yours to make
Got a way out… yeah you got an escape
You can go live with your brother
He ain’t been right since mother
Caught her sister in bed with father
Yeah, they were all over each other
They ended up having a daughter
My family tree’s now is a jungle
Rather than face the hot water
They pretended her dad was her uncle
Your brother has a farm in Topeka
And you know he would sure love to see ya
You could stay there and pick up the pieces
Spent some time with the nephews and nieces
HOPE FLOATS By Tom Jensen
Rise up, rise up and follow me...
For I've been sent to help defend
Good old democracy
From all you corporate kids
Who've failed to see...
What's blowing is more than just the breeze
There's lots of negative energy
Coming from your cries of 
“What's in it for me?”
Won't you kindly
Oh pretty please
Show me or tell me:
What do you love about yourself?
Come on now, honestly...
Surely it'll end up no surprise
When we all see far worse
Than sad eyes and bruised pride
When the U.S.S. Enterprise
Is engaged in Star Wars
As we all run for our lives...
If we just let things be...
We'll find that our state of mind
Will be in a state of remorse
Ooh...there is and will be great misery
If we get too greedy
Actually, we may already be
Swallowed up by an endless sea
Inside the big black hole
Known as the status quo
Sure, they can sink my boat
But they can't take my hope
That's still beyond anyone's control
So with that it's time for me to go...
Telling everyone I know
There's something better
Waiting down the road
Just what it is
I can't wait to see...
And who'll be
Standing next to me
Well, time will show
GREEN EYES by Tom Jensen
If I could capture this emotion
I’d lock it away down the bottom of the ocean
Uncertainty don’t mean anything to me
I’m just biding my time 
While hiding in my rhyme
And I’ll be here long after closing time
Hitting my bong and getting along
‘Cause insanity … it don’t mean anything to me
There ya read it… I said it
And now it’s in my book of poetry
If I could turn back this clock
Pause the tick, tick, tock
Reset everybody’s score to zero
At least then I’d be somebody’s hero
No rich and no poor
No ceiling and no floor
No more stacking the deck no more
Feed the starving children
Watch the fat man as he wastes away
My precious advice 
Is that the world is paying the price
You could save a life for about a buck a day…
Hey, hey, hey
And yet the men and women 
Who run the country
They only see things one way
They only see the color green
Following the system that their fathers made
While so much slips by unseen
Old tired green eyes - so much slips past
Old tired green eyes - the shadow has been cast
Old tired green eyes- 
Time has shown will never last
Old tired green eyes-
Cannot see a world spinning so fast
The old ways only worked in the old days
So when you hear the words “mental set”
You better clear the deck
The rich living off the poor
We know we can't have that anymore
The poor living off the rich
Hey man, fu$% that sh#%
You wanna know where it's at?
Well I can't tell you where it is
But I can sure tell 
That it’s all going to hell real fast
Because we’re all a bunch of hypocrites
I think that I know you…
But do I really know me?
Am I still a slave to something I can’t see?
I can feel deep down…
Something changing inside of me
How have I somehow become so dull…
Dull towards all this pain I see?
Those who should lead
Are too busy pointing fingers
Those who are pointed at
They just head up for the hills
And as the dead get carried away
Their memory still lingers
Because it’s well known
That equality don’t pay the bills
Money, money, money
Got to get me some
Money, money, money
Don’t care where it comes from
Money, money, money
I need it to survive
Money, money, money
I get paid a thousand dollars per lie
BOTTOM OF THE LAKE 
by Tom Jensen
My heart is now my best friend
No longer my enemy
I've finally said goodbye to you
And said hello to me
The path we walked was winding
At least we weren't alone
But when yourself you're finding
Sometimes you must walk alone
I swim through my memories
As you're drowned by the waves
Tears roll off your eyes
Over the love that could not be saved
When it's time to sink or swim
It's already too late
Bubbles float up through the water
I'm at the bottom of the lake
You look at me in confusion
From your eye drops another tear
As you offer me your hand 
I think it's better down here
Don't call for a rescue 
Whatever you do...
I jumped in the water 
To free myself from you
This boulder shackled to my ankle 
Has become my new best friend
We'll be soul mates forever 
Until the very end
Don't call for a rescue 
Whatever you do...
As heavy as my new friend is
He's just a feather compared to you
My heart is now my best friend
No longer my enemy
I've finally said goodbye to you
And said hello to me
(and my boulder)
I'm at the bottom of the lake
(with my boulder)
I'm at the bottom of the lake
(with my boulder)
I'm at the bottom of the lake
(with my boulder)
I'm at the bottom of the lake
(with my boulder)
GAME By Tom Jensen
The coach called my number
So I stepped up to the plate
The pitcher threw the ball
But I swung too late
Two strikes left
I'm down in the count
I know I can't give up
As I hear the fans shout
Again the pitcher threw the ball
After he checked the sign
A ball way outside
But the empire is blind
He called strike two
As the catcher smiled
Now I'm down and out
Swinging at anything that comes
It's the bottom of the ninth
And we need a home run
Now the pitcher does
What he has to do
He threw another pitch
And I swung right through
Now he's jumping up
With his fists tightly clenched
As I put my head down
Walking on back to the bench
Time for the winners and the losers
To each go their separate ways
We both had our chances
In the game we just played
Time to clear my ears
Of all their constant ringing
But I took my shot
At least I went down swinging
As the stadium quiets down
After the outcome has been revealed
Everybody leaves the park
There's only grass left on the field
Just my luck
The clouds begin to rain
But as I scratch my head
I remember that tomorrow
There will be another game
YOU CAN NEVER RUN AWAY FROM YOURSELF
by Tom Jensen
I lay on the ground 
As I feel death’s cold eyes
Even in defeat 
I am not taken by surprise
I am my own rock 
By no man’s law I abide
In desperate times
You can look for a place to hide
But you can never 
Run away from yourself
In good times and bad times
In sickness and health
There’s no escape when trouble
Has already come
For you can never take back anything
That you have done
I lay on the ground 
As I feel death’s cold eyes
Even in defeat 
I am not taken by surprise
I am my own rock 
By no man’s law I abide
In desperate times
You can look for a place to hide
But you can never 
Run away from yourself
In good times and bad times
In sickness and health
Never run away from yourself…
FUZZY MATH by Tom Jensen
(Feist parody of 1,2,3,4) 
Voice of George W. Bush speaking:
Well hello little Jenna...this is a song that my daddy used to sing to me...
it's called: fuzzy math...
Four, three, one, two
So much work we don't wanna do
Three, two, one, four
That's what God made minorities for
This is exactly what my daddy said to me
When I was young 
he sat me down on his knee
When you're born so insanely rich
There's no reason why 
you can't be prejudice
Guatemalans came here to cut the grass
For those of us who are high class
While Haitians floated over on a raft
To work at nursing homes 
wiping grandma's a$$
Columbians grow coffee 
and sometimes sell cocaine
Those silly little Mexicans
love working in the rain
Not sure whatcha call 
the ones that clean our house
But at least they do something 
unlike those blacks down south
We were born so insanely rich
Perhaps that's why
we're so prejudice
Eleventeen, three, six, five and eight
Growing up wealthy, white 
and ignorant is great
Now tell me daddy... 
Why'd we really go to war?
So many die... 
Just what are they fighting for?
He said, "Well honey, think of the world 
as a great big machine…
That runs off a whole bunch 
of oil and gasoline…
And you know those sand people 
can get pretty mean…
That's why we're so glad Dick Cheney's 
on our team"
We were born so insanely rich
Perhaps that's why we're so prejudice
Eleventeen, three, six, five and eight
Growing up wealthy, white 
and ignorant is great
Three, four, two, one
And now my song is done
SHE DON’T COME EASY
 by Tom Jensen and Ringo Starr
(spoof of IT DON’T COME EASY by Ringo Starr)
One, two,
One, two, three, four!
She don’t cum easy
You know she don’t cum easy
You’ve asked a lot of dudes 
who’ve said that it’s the truth 
Now you know she don’t cum easy
You can open up your mouth 
and stick your tongue way out
But you’ll just get claustrophobic and queasy
Spread those legs apart
Let’s cum together 
She said but before you even start
I want you to know that I’ve had better...
It don’t matter if you’re gonna f*ck 
or if you lick and suck
We all know she don’t cum easy
She’ll stack ‘em side by side 
lined up in rows of five
Asking, “Who’ll be the one to please me?”
Wet… that p*ssy is what you want to make it
Sure, she’s lied to other guys
Look her in the eyes 
and watch out that she don’t fake it
You’ve asked a lot of dudes 
who’ve said that it’s the truth 
Now you know she don’t cum easy
You can open up your mouth
 and stick your tongue way out
But you’ll just get claustrophobic and queasy
Wet… that pussy is what you want to make it
Sure, she’s lied to other guys
Look her in the eyes 
and watch out that she don’t fake it
It don’t matter if you’re gonna f*ck 
or if you lick and suck
We all know she don’t cum easy
She’ll stack ‘em side by side 
lined up in rows of five
Asking, “Who’ll be the one to please me?”
CINNABON GIRL by Tom Jensen 
(Neil Young spoof of CINNAMON GIRL)
I fell in love with a Cinnabon Girl
When she reached in with her nub
And gave my foam latte a swirl
My Cinnabon Girl
She drank cream from the pitcher
Stole all the butter in sight
And when she called me her pecan
It was to my delight
My Cinnabon Girl
Six sticky buns for here
At least two more to go
And throw in a cup of glaze
Because you just never know
With a Cinnabon girl
She looked at me
Like I had pies in my eyes
I whispered in her ear
“For you it's a la mode, my dear”
To my Cinnabon Girl
I ordered three vanilla crullers
She made ‘em disappear
My eyes grew wide
I can’t say how …
I can only say where
But, it was the last croissant
Which we both did want
So we got into a fight...
Now it seems like nothing’s right
Right!!!
Right!
Right?
I fell in love with a Cinnabon Girl
When she reached in with her nub
And gave my foam latte a swirl
My Cinnabon Girl
FIFTY WAYS by Tom Jensen Paul Simon
(Spoof of Paul Simon’s FIFTY WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER)
The problem is he gets no head 
not a sniff of p*ssy 
The answer is easy
if you take advice from me
I can help you make it big 
your little, little peter
There must be fifty ways to f*ck your lover
He said he got no courage around the girls
So they don’t open their shells, 
don’t give up their pearls
I say if you want the sex then just be direct 
There must be fifty ways to f*ck your lover, 
fifty ways to f*ck your lover
Put a bag over head Ted
Make sure she's on the pill Bill
Just whip out your dick Nick
Ride her like a bike Mike
Do her doggy style Kyle
Hit her from the back Jack
Play her like a toy Roy
Go and slip it in Vin
Give her a spank Frank
Stick it right between her lips Chip
Tell her jump on John
How about sharing Aaron
Tell her right now gimmie Jimmy
Watch out for a quiffs Keith
Go dive in the gorge George
Give her your all Paul
You better make her moan Ramon
Drop the bomb Tom
Measure her by the meter Peter
Get it nice and sweaty Eddie
Look out for the puss Russ 
Whip out your meat Pete
Give it a shave Dave
Grab her two knobs Bob
I wanna hear her squeal Neal 
Rub it on her hymen Simon
Go for the cherry theft Jeff
Make sure it's bleeding Stephen
Ask her to free Willy Billy 
Shoot a wad Rod
Try not to turn her gay Ray
Don't be a homo so go for the blow Mo
Play homerun derby 
and give her the bat Matt 
Do her in the dark Mark
Watch out for the smell Mel
Turn her black and blue Lou
Don't make her beg Greg 
Play Adam and Eve Steve
Lift up her shirt Kurt
Make her your b*tch Rich
Try for the whole fist Chris
Make sure it's clean Dean 
Don't be a dad Brad
Get her wet and hot Scott
Make her panties sticky Rickey
Never settle for a hug Doug 
Go taste some candy Andy
Let her ride the bologny pony Tony
Unbutton her pants Lance
Just give her a good f*ck Chuck
You don't' have to discuss much...
He said he was impressed 
and he’d see how it goes
Now that he’d seen just how to pimp the hoes
If you’re a player know a player plays 
for there must be fifty ways
He said with this new insight 
he was sure to score tonight
Later on when I saw him with a lady 
I knew that he was right
In the morning we’ll have to check her pillow 
to see if she bites
There must be fifty ways to lick your lover, 
And fifty guys who met your mother!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha...
DOM-VIO lyrics by Tom Jensen Van Morrison
(spoof of DOMINO by Van Morrison)
Note: Dom vio = domestic violence 
NFL don't wanna discuss it 
What causes concussions on women's brains
Fans may get disgusted
That's when channels start to change
In that case, destroy all evidence 
Don't keep it under lock and key
Never have to worry
'Bout facts blowing back at you or back at me...
(Get it?)
no no Dom - Vio (not that night) 
So long as there's no video of the fight
Lord, have mercy
I said no no Dom - Vio
You'll be alright 
So long as there's no pictures of the fight
Say it again:
I said no oh no Dom - Vio
I said no-oh-no Dom - Vio
(Hid it)
There's no need for argument... 
No there's no argument at all...
After you punched her in the elevator
And the camera captured her fall
Or vice versa 
That depends on where ever you're at
(The knife)
Sometimes you get the O.J. treatment 
And we wonder why they stop fighting back...
(Hit 'em) 
Oh there's no video
(It's all right)
So go loco Rocky Marciano 
Hey you Greg Hardy 
There you go...
Lord have mercy! 
I said 
No Dom - Vio
If there's no video 
They will let you go...
They said it's alright!
Say it again 
No Dom - Vio
(Huh!)
I said 
No no Dom - Vio
Well, Mr. Goodell I just don't wanna see 
Someone who is clearly crazy's
Face on my T.V.
Playin' in the league
For my kids to see
For my kids to be
Uh - uh, not right
Uh - uh, not right
Uh - uh, not right
Uh - uh
I'm gonna leave

SETLIST & SONGLIST ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE STYLE REVIEWS
SET LIST ONE
Set List One plays like a news report from the edge of the world, filed by a broken poet with nothing left to lose. “Puzzle Pieces” sets the mood — mistrust, disconnection, the static between stations. The voice here is human, cracked but lucid, unraveling capitalism, addiction, silence, and guilt. Each piece hints at something lost: youth, innocence, sobriety, maybe even God. "Pen and Paper" wages war against the weight of the world, while “Exit the Sandman” kicks sleep out the door to hunt memories that don’t want to be remembered. Political paranoia and personal failure blur like headlines melting in the rain. “Climbing the Ladder” is both an overdose and a survival guide. By the time “My Precious” arrives, we’re drowning in gold-plated poverty and false kings. And then, quietly, “Let Me In” asks for grace — not fame, just a place to rest, to feel, to begin again.
SET LIST TWO 
Set List Two doesn’t knock — it kicks the door off its hinges and starts shouting truth at anyone left standing. These poems burn with confrontation, battling hive minds, violence-as-policy, and fractured brotherhood. “Rest In Power” isn’t mourning — it’s a resurrection in fire. “B.F.T.” and “Status Quo Woes” throw punches at broken systems and the men who profit from collapse. There are war cries disguised as rhymes and raw diary entries that end with gunpowder instead of ink. Nothing here is safe, and that’s the point. “Unwinnable” dares you to keep playing a rigged game while “Rival” and “Violence Is Their Solution” declare open war on apathy. These aren’t just poems — they’re pipe bombs in pretty envelopes. By the time we reach “Multiverse,” the only thing left to question is which version of reality we were supposed to be living in all along.
SET LIST THREE
Set List Three wakes up alone, pissed off, and pacing the room. “Advice” opens with a cry for direction, but the answers come back warped, like voices underwater. There’s humor here — but it’s bitter, like laughing in the mirror while breaking it. “F the W” smokes out the sadness and flips off the void, while “Another” and “The Spot” look for love (or at least someone warm) before the lights come back on. The club becomes confession booth; the dance floor, a therapy session with a backbeat. These poems run on adrenaline and impulse, chasing validation and numbness in the same breath. “Blank Pages” turns the whole thing upside down — revealing that behind all the swagger and wisecracks is a writer terrified of wasting his life. “The Game” ends it with stadium lights, a swing and a miss, and a head held high anyway. Set List Three isn’t just about fighting demons — it’s about partying with them and trying to make peace before morning.
SET LIST FOUR
Set List Four opens with a marriage on life support and ends in a scream for redemption. “Married to Something Else” sets the table with whiskey breath and cold dinners, a love worn thin by routine and regret. The speakers here know pain — not the poetic kind, but the bleeding, late-night, “where did I go wrong?” kind. “Watering the Weeds” rips out the delusions by their roots, and “Rest In Peace” turns a house fire into a twisted punchline. Addiction hangs over the whole set like smoke in a motel room. “Rat Park” and “Rehab” aren’t cautionary tales — they’re firsthand accounts, too close to be comfortable. These poems fidget, tremble, and confess. “Alcohol” plays like a love letter to poison, and “Empty Bottle” echoes with questions nobody wants to answer. But in “Let Me Live the Dream,” hope cracks through the chaos — a raw prayer that maybe, just maybe, there's still a way out.
SET LIST FIVE
Set List Five barges in shirtless with a smirk and a hard-on, aiming low and hitting hard. “Mic Drop” sets the tone — a gleefully obscene circus of sex, swagger, and zero apologies. This isn’t love; it’s lust in overdrive, where “One Night Stan” and “Meet Michael Hawk” flip the playboy archetype into a grotesque cartoon. Every punchline is a red flag, waved proudly. Beneath the raunch and braggadocio, there’s a raw kind of sadness — the desperate ego of someone terrified of being irrelevant. “Fifty Ways” and “Cinnabon Girl” reveal the rot behind the seduction, dripping with parody and shame. The laughter here is always double-edged — half joy, half recoil. These aren’t locker room stories; they’re confessions from a man who’s seen too much porn and not enough love. By the time “She Don’t Cum Easy” rolls around, you realize it’s not just sex being exposed — it’s loneliness. And if you’re not laughing, you’re probably crying.
SET LIST SIX
Set List Six isn’t the UFC’s Bo Nickal, the hyped-up young prospect getting the royal treatment with soft matchups and bright lights. It’s Jim Fucking Miller — 20 years in, over 4,500 strikes absorbed, still grinding it out on short notice with blood in his mouth and a smirk under his mustache. “Hideaway” kicks things off like an episode of Two and a Half Men, with you playing Charlie Sheen — women, booze, and total denial — just wait until you, the audience, see how it ends. “Look Her Up” and “No Thanks Babe” wear smirks, but underneath, they’re hiding bruises that never faded. These pieces wrestle with temptation, isolation, and longing, asking whether connection is worth the pain it usually brings. “In a Jiffy” plays like a rushed escape — not from danger, but from responsibility. There’s humor, but it’s strained; there’s lust, but it’s laced with loneliness. “Fifty Ways” isn’t metaphor — it’s literal: fifty raw, graphic, wildly inventive ways to copulate with your lover, straddling the line between satire and softcore instruction manual. By the time “She Don’t Cum Easy” hits, the truth is obvious: this is a man out of moves. But even here, at the bottom of the bottle and the end of the joke, Set List Six still throws a wink — bruised, not broken… and still jokin’.
SET LIST SEVEN 
Set List Seven doesn’t imagine the end of the world — it just opens the blinds. This one feels real because it is: each track pulls from lived moments, overheard confessions, and headlines too close to home. “Corey Story” opens with fatherless ache and a cigarette-burned childhood, setting the tone for an album that never lets the wound scab over. “Daddy Taught Me” follows like a Gene Hackman movie set in Mississippi, all smoke, silence, and mission-burning menace just offscreen. “Shadow of Smoke” floats like grief itself—intangible, everywhere, impossible to hold. The body count rises with “Wheat and Chaff,” a tribute in fragments, haunted by the quiet collapse of Anthony Bourdain—a man who saw the whole world and still couldn’t find a place to stand. “Midas Touch” burns what’s left of success culture to the ground, exposing the blue-lipped corpse underneath all that gold. “Sniper’s Song” lands last and coldest: a pair of ghosts in a sedan, calm as Sunday, watching the world fall one shot at a time—lifted directly from The Washington Post, October 4, 2002, when the DC Sniper left a note at the scene and the country held its breath. These aren’t just poems—they’re witness statements. There’s no redemptive arc here, only fire and fallout. And for the record, said Corey works for the state now, doing better than the author in the eyes of Our Lord.
SET LIST EIGHT 
Set List Eight opens like a broadcast from inside the mind at midnight — static, signal, and something half-true in between. “Thirty Seconds” starts the countdown: a desperate plea to wake up before the final tick, to tune out the noise and find what’s left of yourself. “Playing Chess” turns war into metaphor and back again, where soldiers, addicts, and pawns blur into one fallen figure just trying to break the board. In “Sky and Light,” perception fractures under the pressure of burnout and urban ruin, searching for beauty through the smoke. “Discartes” and “I Am” dismantle identity itself, dragging faith, ego, and empire into a spiral of dream logic and bitter defiance. “Timeless to Ten” offers a quiet thesis — that reaching a few minds with meaning beats entertaining millions with emptiness. The second half hits like a spiral: “Listen,” “Fear,” and “Down” catch the soul slipping, clawing, begging for clarity in the face of failure and hesitation. “Spinning” pulls inward to the edge of collapse — the temple cracked, the soldier alone, still fighting from within. And “Somewhere” closes with a soft exhale: a quiet plea that love, faith, and meaning still exist... not here, maybe, but somewhere.
SET LIST NINE 
Set List Nine doesn’t shout — it stands tall and speaks clearly, with a weathered voice full of purpose and scars. “We Are the Ones” is a workers’ anthem dressed in dirt and defiance, refusing invisibility with a nod and a shovel in hand. “Friend” is sunlight through coffee steam, and “Speak” carries quiet urgency — both make connection feel radical without ever raising their voice. “Applied Faith” rebuilds belief as a practical craft, not magic but muscle — something you shape with will and intention. Then the world melts a little: “Slip Stream” and “Sides” harken back to the ‘60s revolution, as if you just showed up on the cover of Sgt. Pepper, grinning sideways through paisley smoke, dreaming of a better dimension and damn near believing you could reach it. “Invisible Prison” floats the idea that the only real bars are mental — and the key’s already in your hand. “Better Than It Seems” drifts through hard-won clarity, asking whether arrival is real or just another mirage. “First Glance” and “Complicated Subject” pan wide across time, war, memory, and the wounded planet we keep promising to fix. “Fate Is a Word” delivers gospel from a man who’s done the math and knows better, and “Believe Me” closes the door with a half-smile and full truth. Set List Nine isn’t hallucinating. It’s remembering. And the revolution still echoes in its boots.
SET LIST TEN
Set List Ten punches the gas pedal into political paranoia, media satire, and scorched-earth realism. It opens with “History to Me,” a generational roast of cultural memory and celebrity sellouts, where nostalgia is a rigged game and no one escapes judgment. “Pushing the Button” warns of nuclear consequences with a punk rock snarl, a fiery middle finger to global complacency. “Heresy Speaks No Evil” takes the longest, loudest breath in the set — an urgent, tumbling rant against corruption, inequality, and mass distraction, echoing Ginsberg through a modern, media-choked megaphone. “Obamafication” captures the disillusionment of a Democratic base that hoped their vote might finally bring real change — only to watch their candidate serve corporate overlords (in this case, Wall Street) instead. Yeah, he talked good… but that’s all it was. “Shadow Boxing” and “Picture Something Nice” navigate street-level trauma and moral detachment, contrasting poetic grit with the numbness of apathy. “Call It Fate” dares to zoom out — from hospital beds to courtroom corruption to childhood violence — tying it all together with a fatalistic shrug. “Pardon Me” cranks the cynicism to eleven, a darkly funny, whip-smart indictment of American politics where truth is a stunt and corruption is the game. “Birthright” pivots into anthemic protest, calling out hypocrisy with melodic soul and echoing Dylan’s urgency in a millennial voice. “Shades” tosses racial division under the microscope, concluding that surface means nothing without soul. “Intellectual Property” is a poem of decay, full of crumbling sidewalks, tossed bottles, and urban neglect — painting rot in high definition. And “Another History Lesson” closes the set as both mission statement and battle cry: angry, poetic, and unafraid to sound madder than the Mad Hatter. Set Ten is political punk-folk with a conscience and a bite — and it’s coming for your soapbox, whether you're ready or not.
SET LIST ELEVEN
Set List Eleven opens with the buzz of fluorescent lights and the echo of worn-out shoes on tiled floors. This time, our narrator isn’t trying to change the world; he’s just trying to make it through the night. “Love It or Leave It” sets the tone — a defiant personal mantra wrapped in mirrors and doubt. “Groovy Gravy” follows in a haze of breakdown and breakthrough, a groan through madness that somehow finds melody. “Devil’s Friend” and “Disciple of Dirt” wrestle openly with temptation, addiction, and the cost of chasing truth when the truth doesn’t want to be caught. “Moth” drifts into flame, fusing fatalism with fragile beauty. “Insomnia” takes up the midnight torch, pacing the room with too much knowledge and not enough rest. “Thick Skin” (in its shortened form) aches with withheld pain and battered pride, a jagged lullaby. “Time’s Up” screams its warning into the surf, a bruised survivor’s anthem for those who learned too late not to play with fire. “Kicking the Can” adds some dry humor to heartbreak, finding poetry in getting dumped and walking away with a garbage bag full of dreams. “Hey Waiter” slow dances with longing, chivalry, and quiet hunger. “Cement” is poured from revolution — rage and rhetoric baked into the foundation of modern despair. “Fancy Words” strips back all the clever tricks and speaks directly, clearly, urgently — as if the writer’s soul depends on it. “Dancefloor” sends us off with one final cigarette and a crooked smile, choosing joy for a night — because the rest will still be broken come morning. 
SET LIST TWELVE
Set List Twelve rides the brutal, beautiful rollercoaster of love — its lifts, its drops, its crashes, and the quiet courage it takes just to try. Across twelve emotional swings, it charts the wreckage of hearts, the echoes of pain, and the stubborn hope that somehow we keep going anyway. “Bite of the Apple” opens as a confessional confrontation, wrestling with guilt, temptation, and the search for truth between lovers. “Empty Eyes” plays the silent grief of a man who can’t show what he feels — his face blank, his soul burning. “On the Rocks” gives the mic to the woman left out in the rain, all bridal dreams drowned in heartbreak and regret. “Smitty’s Anthem (No Tears)” is pure gallows swagger — a punked-up self-eulogy for the emotionally wrecked. Then comes “Victim of Fate,” where trauma is inherited and detachment is survival. “Dora” goes fully unhinged: manic, raunchy, and raw like a bar fight in rhyme form. The back half gets no softer. “Get Outta My House” slams the door on marriage with a full theater of chaos — vases, hoses, and the long fade to legal separation. “Valentine Woes” captures the lonely holiday blues with wry intimacy, while “This Very Room” haunts the reader with unresolved grief and ghostly jealousy. “Smiles and Frowns” seesaws between bitterness and healing, as the narrator crawls out of sadness one grin at a time. “Underrated” is an anthem for the failed dreamer — one who’s walked the road, burned the pages, and learned to live with the smoke. “Clinical Depression” ends the set with devastating honesty, playing out a family's dialogue over a suicide attempt with brutal clarity and heart. This set list doesn’t fake hope, but it earns it — by refusing to look away from what love, loss, and life really feel like.
SET LIST THIRTEEN
Set List Thirteen pulls no punches in calling out the corrupt political leaders who ignore the will of the people while spreading “permanent lies” to keep their grip on power. Lobbyists and wealthy corporations are painted as puppeteers, rigging the system, gutting communities, and turning entire countries into commodities under cold, calculated greed. The justice system grinds on like a machine, locking up the vulnerable while shielding the powerful from consequence. Media complicity runs deep, as songs like “East Timor” expose how genocide is hidden behind propaganda and silence, while “Poorest Chorus” details the Walmartization of America—a brutal economic siege that crushes small businesses and moral fiber alike. Tracks such as “Gate Keeper” reveal the dark bargains struck behind closed doors, and “Gettin’ Juiced” dives into the O.J. Simpson case to expose how fame, money, and power manipulate justice and equality. The legacy of colonization haunts “Staking the Flag,” portraying conquest as a trail of tears soaked in blood and broken promises. Political parties are reduced to empty distractions in “United We Stand,” where fractured unity and hollow rhetoric mask the nation’s decline. Capitalism’s insatiable hunger fuels endless wars, as “Permanent Lies” warns of infinite conflicts born from twisted truths and greed. This set list stands as a fiery indictment of systemic corruption and societal apathy, demanding listeners awaken and fight back before the damage becomes irreversible. It’s a raw, unfiltered protest carved into song — a call to consciousness in a world dangerously close to collapse. 
SET LIST FOURTEEN
Set List Fourteen dives deeply into personal vulnerability, emotional growth, and the nuanced complexities of love, healing, and self-discovery—blending real life, fantasy, fan fiction, dreams, and the naive whirlwind rush of finding a real-life musical superhero who inspires the belief that anything is possible. From the tender intimacy of “Tears of Trust,” where two souls become one through honesty and acceptance, to the fragile defenses laid bare in “Paper Thin,” the album explores the walls we build and the courage it takes to break them down. “Cutie Pie” is a playful yet sincere celebration of love’s intoxicating hold, capturing those moments when affection feels both electrifying and tender. A big chunk of the set’s emotional core, especially in songs like “Aum... What She Said... Om” and “Night Light,” draws from the great LadyWeaver’s poetic and musical meditations on love, the universe, balance, resilience, and mindfulness. Hope shines through in “Night Light” and “Happy Place,” creating safe emotional havens amidst life’s struggles. “Synergy” captures the magical alignment of creative forces and human connection, while “Making a Killing” embodies the dream of the poet-narrator and trailblazing singer-musician uniting to lead the world toward hope and healing through the transformative power of their music. “Monuments” honors time as a precious gift, and “My Garden” reminds us that growth requires patience. The closing tracks—“Let It Ride,” “Riding a Wave,” and “Only Shared With You”—embrace acceptance, the ebb and flow of relationships, and the quiet power of private love and truth. Together, this setlist is a soulful meditation on healing, connection, and the strength found in vulnerability. 
SET LIST FIFTEEN
Set List Fifteen is a fierce, unflinching confrontation with the broken systems, internal struggles, and collective madness of modern life—blending righteous anger, philosophical reflection, and dark humor in equal measure. The narrator is no longer whispering from behind the curtain; he’s stepping forward, pen in hand, daring the world to flinch. Tracks like “Shield” and “Story of My Life” expose the paralyzing weight of hesitation and self-doubt, while “Floating Head” and “Messy Room” paint surreal portraits of emotional collapse. “Come To Me” and “Other Times” tackle institutional oppression with sharp-eyed clarity, calling out political manipulation, spiritual decay, and the fraying fabric of community. “Flim Flam Man” doesn’t just name names—it lights the match, marching forward with a revolutionary fury. “Solving Problems” and “Heavy Machines” channel that rage into momentum, using grit and wit to strike back at the systems that crush hope. But it’s not all fire and fists: “Monarch” reveals the quiet suffering beneath bravado, and “Brain Games” and “Chit Chat Chatter” show how the damage spreads through even the smallest daily exchanges. By the time “Sign of the Times” closes out the set, the message is clear: the poet is no longer content to survive the chaos—he’s rallying anyone who can still feel to rise up and fight back. 
SET LIST SIXTEEN
Set List Sixteen wrestles openly with spiritual doubt, personal contradiction, and the raw pursuit of meaning through creativity, self-honesty, and resilience. These are meditations from the edge—on religion, love, truth, and the lonely climb toward belief in something greater, even if that “something” is simply your own voice. The author tumbles through this emotional wash cycle like a man trapped in a spiritual washing machine, hoping to come out clean. “Hypocrites” and “Tom’s Psalm” set the tone with biting critiques of organized faith and institutional failure, framing the poet not as a preacher but as a searcher. “Lost and Found” and “Triangle” examine the agony of love not returned, and how time complicates what the heart can’t let go. “Crystal Ball” and “Walking Paradox” lay bare a fractured psyche: indecision, contradiction, and the tension between freedom and responsibility. Tracks like “How and When” and “Kneeling” find strength in surrender, embracing vulnerability not as weakness but as the first step toward healing. “Best Left” captures the bittersweet ache of outgrowing what once defined you, while “Chameleon” celebrates adaptability and the hope of mutual transformation. “The Light” is a mythic emotional journey from loneliness to spiritual illumination, told through pure imagery and aching hope. By the time we reach “Learn From the Masters” and “Never Be,” the poet has stripped away false idols and self-doubt, emerging as a student of truth, driven not by fame but by purpose. Through contradictions, questions, and quiet revelations, Set List Sixteen becomes a poetic gospel for anyone stumbling through the dark, still believing the light is worth chasing. If you’re dirty, it’s time to get clean!
SET LIST SEVENTEEN
Set List Seventeen detonates like a confessional grenade, scattering sex, politics, comedy, and collapse in every direction. These tracks revel in poetic whiplash—where social commentary slams into gallows humor, and raw heartbreak gets doused in sarcasm, beer foam, and existential doubt. “Spreading the Word” answers the dark joke of “save the world, kill yourself,” and wrestles with why surrendering isn’t an option. “Beware of the Snoogins” comes alive like a wild Jerry Springer episode—not the viral “cash me outside” girl, but the chaotic, messy family drama that plays out in real life. “Dot Dot Space” is the joke—the b*tch was so blind, how blind was she? I wrote her a song in f%$#ing braille. Meanwhile, “Empty Room” delves into the complexities of a threesome you definitely don’t want to have, exposing emotional pitfalls and awkward truths. Tracks like “Flyswatter of Love,” “Times Up,” and “Sunday Morning Sex” add layers of painful longing, bitter reckoning, and unapologetic irreverence. Throughout, the set bursts with unflinching honesty and sharp wit, painting a vivid picture of modern life’s contradictions and the messy search for connection amid chaos. 
SET LIST EIGHTEEN
Set List Eighteen is the alternate, darker path—a direct divergence from Set List Fourteen’s Making a Killing, which told the redemptive story of a poet and his guitar-playing, gift-from-god-voice-singing, head-turning muse who stay together, lift each other up, and inspire a broken world to heal. That first path led to inspiration. To redemption. To forgiveness. This one doesn’t. This is the worst-case scenario of a poet who has lost everything. How does someone who once gave the world hope end up taking a life?
“Gauging Time” starts in a jail cell—and from that enclosed space, the descent begins. Grief and rage hollow him out after the death of LadyWeaver. The world fractures. He breaks with it. And where Set List Fourteen chose the light, Set List Eighteen gives in to the storm. Political unrest, personal turmoil, and spiritual rot thread through each song. “War Leonard 19” and “Battle Cry” rage against false prophets, failing systems, and manufactured conflict. “Free Speech” shows the cost of telling the truth. “Beast” shows the cost of keeping it in.
There are moments of flickering light. “Flicker” hangs on to belief. “Hidden Evils” walks us through ordinary despair. But as the set progresses—through “Patching the Hole,” “Enemy of This State,” and “Building a Castle”—we see the walls go up. The poet isolates. Cuts off the exits. Loses track of who he is. “Cliffhanger” and “Happy Birthday to Me” pull us into deep reflection and loneliness. By the time we reach “Apocalypse Now, See Ya Later,” the war is internal, total, and already lost. “Wave My Hands” ends the set not in triumph, but in grim resolve—the final echo of someone who once meant well and now can’t remember why.
SET LIST NINETEEN
Set List Nineteen is a raw, emotional journey about finding love and becoming utterly desperate to hold onto it—by any means necessary. The album captures the fragile thrill of connection, where fleeting moments of joy and tenderness ignite hope but leave you aching for completeness. From the opening track, “Pretty Gold Bracelet,” we feel modest domestic happiness—love that outvalues money or material things. Yet even here, there’s a sense of vulnerability, as if this joy might slip away at any moment. “Still Walking the Earth” follows, expressing a willingness to risk everything for a love that feels sacred and life-affirming. Songs like “In the Shape of an Angel” and “Big Shoes” offer quiet affirmations of faith, forgiveness, and trust grounded in lived experience rather than fantasy. “Forever” and “Open and Closed” deepen the emotional stakes, reckoning with the terrifying power and fragility of devotion. “Ten Feet Tall” captures the risk of love—being up so high on emotion, and the ever-present fear of falling. “Bird on a String” questions how much protection is too much, probing the balance between freedom and safety in love. Later tracks like “Unwritten and Unsaid” and “Glass House” explore the cracks in relationships, where truths go unspoken and forgiveness is elusive. “Forget Me Knot” marks the breaking of the bond of matrimony, a painful unraveling of what once was sacred. Finally, “After the Fact” closes the album with a quiet reckoning—an acceptance of loss but also a stubborn refusal to give up. This album is not a fairy tale or a neat redemption story. It’s a chronicle of survival—through yearning, heartbreak, and a desperate search for something whole. “After the Fact” sums up the narrator’s life and serves as a haunting parable: a man setting out on a quest for true love, knowing full well he might not come back alive. 
SET LIST TWENTY
Set List 20 plays like a lyrical companion to The Catcher in the Rye — a modern-day Holden Caulfield tracing boot prints through the static of his own unraveling. It’s been nearly 75 years since J.D. Salinger wrote that book, but some things stay timeless: the alienation, the bitterness, the longing for truth in a world full of phonies. This is that same restless voice, amplified by tight-knit rhyming, just waiting for the fingerstroke of a guitar and the opening lyric to “Running Free” being bellowed from the back of the room. The narrator doesn’t flinch, doesn’t posture — he just walks the edge. On “Undefeated,” he shrugs off winning or losing — he’s just trying to stay awake. “Fields of Time” and “New Sight” ache with the tension between who you were and who the world demands you become. “Rock Star Dreams” trades prep school angst for fame-fueled delusion, still reaching for something pure behind the smoke and mirrors. “Perfect World” dismantles capitalism and self-help clichés with the same biting honesty Holden aimed at his teachers and therapists. There’s no damn carousel at the end here — just “Another Quarter” rattling in the jukebox of regret and unspoken fear. Every track wrestles with identity, purpose, and the impulse to just disappear. But instead of asking where the ducks go in winter, he’s asking where the soul goes when it runs out of places to hide. This isn’t nostalgia — it’s a reckoning. Set List 20 isn’t trying to save anyone. It’s just holding the mirror steady, hoping somebody finally looks. 
SET LIST TWENTY-ONE
Set List 21 pans in slowly: there's a figure, but you can’t see his face — just the silhouette of a disheveled traveler, framed like a Tim Burton nightmare stumbling through fog. He turns — and you see his face. It's Beetlejuice… no wait, it's our Wordsmith! This final collection opens with “Shell,” a minimalist gut-punch of a piece that redefines emptiness, isolation, and post-belief burnout. “Ten Percent Tom” sums up the last 15 rotten years since returning from Denmark in a failed quest to win the hand of the fair LadyWeaver — only to scurry back across the ocean in defeat and self-loathing. “Uh, That’s Christmas Nana” delivers holiday confusion with an absurdist wink, a comical nod to memory, age, and misplaced car keys. “Man Enough” and “Never Expect It” form a brutal domestic violence diptych, one told from both sides of the fist — a pair of stark, bitter bursts where justice and vengeance blur to the point of mutual destruction. “Partner in Crime,” inspired by Leonard Cohen, becomes a hushed, haunted benediction — so when you sing it, do him proud. “Hurting Her Knees and Pride” plays like a garage-rock smirk about parking lot passion and teenage shame, a twisted coming-of-age through Dad’s worst nightmare. “Dom-Vio” spoofs Van Morrison while torching the NFL’s complicit silence around violence, slinging satire at Roger Goodell in perfect parody form. “Fuzzy Math” turns into a bedtime story from George W. Bush the Second to little Jenna — a sickly sweet nursery rhyme about race, wealth, and systemic rot that somehow makes you laugh and recoil in equal measure. “Every Four Weeks,” considering the subject matter, might be the one that gets the whole book canceled. “Rumours From Heaven” is one of the wittiest, weirdest pieces in the entire 31 Albums universe — an afterlife fantasia where all the dead rock stars form a celestial house band, trading verses in their own signature voices, jamming across clouds, and cracking jokes only ghosts could deliver. Then comes the monster: “Venus” makes up approximately 52.1% of the total word count for Set List 21 — a towering monologue of heartbreak, betrayal, illness, and revenge that dwarfs its neighbors in both length and emotional intensity. It plays like a novella-ballad hybrid, charting a full tragic arc from Bronx childhood to blood-streaked vengeance, delivering cinematic beats and devastating character turns with brutal pacing. The sheer weight of Venus shifts the gravity of the entire set, anchoring it like a stone in the gut of the reader. 
SONG LIST ONE
Song List 1 serves as an introduction to our author and narrator’s life, times, and struggles, where he lays bare his core values and explains his reasons for continuing the fight, despite a long list of hardships that might make anyone else quietly bow out. The overarching theme is a declaration of resilience and purpose, as the narrator insists on pressing forward, undeterred by life's challenges. Knowing the Know opens the set with a quiet rebellion, where the narrator rejects conventional wisdom, emphasizing the value of personal insight over external instruction. Nevermore delves into self-reflection and a powerful declaration of change, where the narrator vows never to repeat past mistakes, marking a turning point in his journey. Here and Now explores the transient nature of life, urging action in the present moment, as the narrator contemplates the uncertainty of what lies ahead. Cost of War gives voice to the scars left by conflict—both external and internal—depicting the lingering emotional toll of war, loss, and survival. Deep Seeded is the fate that awaits the man who turns away from his dreams for the known, a bleak portrait of a life spent in routine, haunted by unfulfilled aspirations and the weight of choices unmade. Visited a Place offers a haunting meditation on environmental destruction and personal guilt, highlighting the deep connection between the narrator and the land he’s altered. Fallen Walls is the blueprint that power uses to stay in control, offering a way to resist and break free from the treadmill that life has placed before the narrator, a call to dismantle systems of division and reclaim autonomy. As for Me understands that in making choices, sacrifices must be weighed and some things will inevitably be lost, yet the narrator accepts this cost as part of the process of growth and self-definition. Singer Songwriter shows that the choice to fight has been made, with the narrator fully conscious of the role he must play, even when it's not always a pleasant one. Gift is the talent the narrator recognizes as his own, summoned to use it for the greater good—unlocking potential for positive change rather than personal gain. As the author has written in Monetization (Set List 1), some poor fool has got to take the musket ball for society at large, and the narrator aims to take that hit—direct and deliberate, aiming for the chest—to make a difference. 
SONG LIST TWO
Song List 2 is not only a journey through heartbreak with others but also a failed quest for love with oneself—an unshakable reckoning with the self that leaves no room for denial or escape. Dead End, originally framed as advice to another, is actually a warning to the self—a mirror monologue where the narrator pleads with his past or future self to change course before it’s too late. Alison’s Airplane is a thinly veiled metaphor for Alcoholics Anonymous, where the author sits in the church basement reading slogans on the wall, grasping for something larger than himself to keep from sinking again. Warmer Waters maps a search for transcendence that spirals into addiction, betrayal, and disillusionment, until the narrator finally confronts himself in the mirror. The Light or the White pushes that reckoning further, casting “light” as clarity, purpose, or recovery, and “white” as cocaine—forcing a brutal choice between salvation and self-destruction. She paints a devastating portrait of a woman crushed by patriarchy and circumstance—her horses chained, her fate sealed, her soul never quite freed. Curves of Sorrow captures a man frozen in the amber of his own despair, staring into the bottom of a bottle while imagining a life he’ll never live. Let Down reveals the wolf in sheep’s clothing—betrayal disguised as love—where faded jeans and a pretty smile mask manipulation and heartbreak. Table for Two captures the ache of long-distance love, born from the author’s real-life experience Skyping a woman in Denmark—close in heart, but oceans apart—as routine phone calls became lifelines and rituals replaced physical presence. Bottom of the Lake is where the narrator ends up—literally and metaphorically—tied to a symbolic boulder, declaring that even drowning is lighter than carrying the weight of a toxic relationship. Trash Can offers a funeral for a failed love, the narrator burning every remnant in a trash can in a final, desperate purge. Sandcastles sums up the futility of building anything lasting on unstable ground, watching wave after wave wash away illusions of permanence. And You Can Never Run Away From Yourself closes the set with a stark truth: no matter how far you try to escape, your own shadow and past will always catch up to you. These raw, unvarnished confessions aren’t meant to soothe but to forge connection through shared struggle and survival. 
SONG LIST THREE
Song List 3 – September 11th and your name's about to be on a God Damn monument… A wave of remembrance crashes over you, as your life’s journey unfolds not as a movie, but as a series of felt songs. You remember how you once searched for love in all the wrong places, but "Looking for Love" now reminds you how far you’ve come. Slowly, through the years, you’ve learned that imperfections weren’t obstacles — they were blessings, as "Perfect Imperfections" reveals. The mistakes, the struggles, and the pain have all shaped you into the person you are today. As "Carry Me" plays, you reflect on the faith you found in the darkest moments. You understand now that peace doesn’t come from avoiding the storm, but from standing strong in it, just as "Oasis" reminds you. "End of the Road" signals that you’ve completed your journey, and every trial, every victory, has brought you here — to this moment of clarity. A photograph of a deer, shot with YOUR camera and not your gun, symbolizes your choice to spare life instead of taking it in"Right Between the Eyes" where you face the truth of your actions — choosing mercy over violence, peace over destruction. Just as you let the deer live, you realize you must accept your fate with your head held high — so sorry for you but God gave you the gun! Your friends and family, genuinely mourning your death, will act as your lasting photograph — the real and unfiltered mark of your life, a living tribute to the love and goodness you left behind you. Yeah, that’s a god damn monument! As "It Is Your Turn" fades, you see that your life wasn’t wasted. It was a testament to growth, redemption, and the strength to rise above. You’ve earned your peace, and you’re ready to meet your maker with pride. You will be remembered not for your mistakes, but for your unwavering faith and moral courage. You’ve made it, and now, knowing you lived a life worth living, you proceeded in upholding that high standard until you no longer had breath to do so.
SONG LIST FOUR
Song list 4 opens with the haunting image of wandering souls from past lives, yearning for their place in the afterlife or some other realm. Their restless energy fills the air, echoing with a longing for belonging, but they are uncertain, trapped in a state of broken dreams and unresolved destinies. This ethereal, liminal space reflects the narrator’s own turmoil—he finds himself amidst these same wandering spirits, lost in that landscape of uncertainty and broken aspirations. The weight of unfulfilled desires and lost purpose hangs over him, as he struggles to reconcile his own path with the mysteries of the universe. In the first half of the song list, the narrator navigates this inner chaos. With tracks like Fallen Clouds and Stranded, we feel the isolation and the sinking weight of his emotional struggles, mirroring the lost souls he sees. The music paints a picture of a life adrift, untethered, without clear direction. Coming of Fall tells the story of one of these last souls, wandering aimlessly, allowing the narrator to see what awaits him if he fails in his quest for purpose and redemption. Yet, as the album progresses, the tone shifts. Breaking the Chains shows that your inner weakness is not something to be outrun—you must face it. And sometimes a soul is forced to choose. And sometimes that figure chooses wrong. One Slip of the Knife explores that moment of darkness and irreversible action, when a person falters at the edge of despair. It captures the thin line between survival and surrender, and the pain of a choice that cannot be undone. Overrated realizes that only one person can actually be the best—and you probably ain’t the guy (or gal). But that's not the point. Looking at your life through different lenses as you age and come to stand on different ground—coming to terms with some failures—is key to healthy growth, maturing, and the natural cycle of things. Once you can look yourself in the mirror and not hate what you see, you give yourself a chance. That’s when Maybe Someday could actually be today. And when you live in the present—that’s when you can shape your future. By the end of the set, with songs like First Place, Sleepwalkers, and Concrete People, the narrator moves from despair to realization. He confronts the bleak landscape of his inner world, deciding that he’s no longer a prisoner of his circumstances. There’s an awakening—a recognition that, although the past may never be fully shed, the future is his to shape. And in Fight for Peace, he takes a stand, offering not just resolution but a call to collective transformation, pushing past personal pain and toward global change.
SONG LIST FIVE
Song List 5 opens with Night Out, the moment the narrator stops spinning alone in his own orbit and chooses to collide—with intention. That choice triggers an entirely new type of thinking: he goes from being a single atom to forming a bond, becoming an entirely new element, baby! And baby is exactly the right word—because choosing a partner doesn’t just change you. It can create a brand new life.
This is a set about connection, and how intimacy—once feared—becomes the key to freedom. With each track, the narrator makes more active choices to shape his world. The emotional isolation that defined the earlier set lists begins to dissolve. Vulnerability becomes a source of strength, not risk.
Worth the Wait and In the Pouring Rain shimmer with devotion, while Tonight’s Moonlight offers a moment of cosmic stillness, where love and nature exist in perfect balance. Fresco captures the act of seeing someone so clearly that it redefines not just your past, but your very sense of self.
Tracks like In the Pouring Rain, Tonight’s Moonlight, and Fresco stand among the finest examples of the love song genre—timeless compositions that tap into something eternal. They’re the ones that make the girls cry, the guys shut up and feel, and the whole world pause for a second to remember what it means to be held, as a better part of this album gives the listener that warm huggy feeling.
SONG LIST SIX
Song List 6 unfolds as an emotional journey that lets the listener witness the breakdown of love and self, positioned as the opposite axis to Song List 5. Song List 5 was one giant love song while this is an unlove, an anti-love, a no love song. It’s a stark antithesis to the traditional love song, where love is not an uplifting force but a source of pain, loss, and self-reckoning. Every song strips away the idealized version of romantic connection, revealing instead the fear, betrayal, and inevitable endings that come with it. Come For a Ride captures the gut-wrenching moment of knowing you have to leave someone behind, while Where I Am From is the one act where you get to steal love away as a traveler finds you. Yet in this play, happiness is short-lived, as what seemed to be happy was just sadness well-veiled. The track following, How Can You, explores the guilt and confusion of the emotional aftermath. Breaking Her Heart dives deeper into the struggle of loving someone without being able to give all of yourself, and The Nature of Man takes this further, portraying man as the serpent—the symbol of primal desires and self-destructive actions. Throughout the set, the themes of abandonment, betrayal, and self-exile persist, with the traveler unable to outrun the weight of their past. Even when they attempt to leave, they carry with them the ghosts of what they’ve lost. Each song questions the true nature of love, challenging the listener to consider whether love is an act of salvation or a doomed cycle of emotional turmoil. In this set, love’s promise is hollow, and the journey is less about finding peace than it is about coming to terms with the inevitable pain that comes from loving and losing.
SONG LIST SEVEN
Song List 7 is an emotional warzone, where love and its dark opposite, unlove, battle for dominance, each song pulling you deeper into the chaos. The set begins with a hopeful note, exemplified by tracks like Unity and Matchmaker, which highlight the desire for connection and the potential for lasting love. These songs reflect a yearning for togetherness, where the possibility of a shared future is still within reach. However, the set quickly shifts to regretful tracks like Frames and Used to Be, where the narrator reflects on what was lost or could have been, filled with missed opportunities, mistakes, and lingering pain. Blessing in Disguise and Little Bird introduce a bittersweet tone, finding silver linings in pain or deceit, though the happiness they promise feels fleeting and tinged with sorrow. As the set unfolds, Train represents a failure of love, capturing the abandonment and disappointment when promises aren’t kept, and hope fades away. Tracks like Water Flesh and Bone and Train embody uncertainty, where the emotional fatigue and abandonment create an ambiguous atmosphere, leaving the listener questioning whether the relationship should end or continue. Half Full embodies the struggle of being an optimist when realism might be the better option, yet the narrator resists accepting that truth, hoping to hold on to a more idealistic view of love. Untitled Unlabeled represents the pinnacle of pure feeling for someone, the top of the mountain in terms of emotional devotion, and an idealistic, almost unattainable connection. These songs explore the difficult decision to embrace change and move forward, even if that means letting go. Finally, Dust to Dust and Trying Times capture the disillusioned aspect of love, as the characters come to terms with the impermanence of relationships and emotional struggles. These songs reflect the exhaustion of trying, the realization that love can’t always withstand the forces of time and circumstance. Throughout Set List 7, the listener is taken on a journey of heartbreak, growth, and introspection, with each track offering a different emotional ending. The set portrays love’s potential to heal and hurt, to bring hope and despair, and to renew or fade away. 
SONG LIST EIGHT
Song List 8 is the testament to the statement our friend to the pen made when he said upon discovering the LadyWeaver channel on YouTube nearly two decades ago, "You're the one, I'm not sure exactly what that means.... but we are gonna find out!" Every single track is drenched in the profound influence of LadyWeaver—The ONE, known by many names: John Lennon Woman, Denmarkies, A, Dell, Mom, Daughter, Friend, and Sister. She is the muse, the heartbeat behind each word, each note, and each moment of this set. “Stars” throws conventional wisdom out the door and questions the true nature of family, suggesting that wisdom is not found in written scrolls, but in the souls we meet. “Hall of Fame” is how everyone would feel if they knew LadyWeaver like I knew her—she sang “May We” to me live three different times ;) It stands as an anthem to greatness, where the echoes of legends reverberate in the actions of the ordinary. “Ripples” is Denmark girl sharing her gifts with us in the name of pure things rather than being a commercial sellout. It explores the lasting impact of love, as the waves of kindness continue long after the moment has passed. “Stranger...Then Fiction” is the writer creating his and his lady's perfect storybook ending, turning a stranger into a lover, with a surreal, otherworldly connection. “First Class” was written on a plane to Denmark, in the spirit of The Beatles' “Back in the USSR,” challenging societal expectations and celebrating those who live outside the spotlight but possess undeniable greatness. “Next in Line” is self-explanatory—Wink. “Gypsy Mama” is our second installment of happy endings, written especially for him and her. It recounts a fateful encounter, a chance meeting that turns into a deep, decade-long connection, driven by fate. “Michelangelo and Marble” is a love letter where she is the teacher, and I’m the student, but then suddenly I’m the block of rock, and she’s got the chisel, shaping the soul or maybe she's the beautiful statue, I'm still not sure. “All in Good Time” delivers the wisdom that growth and healing happen at the right moment, while “Beauties and Beasts” delves into the balance between inner beauty and the struggles of life. “Sunlight” is LadyWeaver’s plight—wanting to be a normal person but blessed with such an abundance of talent yet flaws and imperfections to match. She was an angel who had a demon as well. I just wanted the world to see this flower of a human and wanted the light side to prevail over the darkness. I wrote this in 13 minutes, the entire piece word for word, after a 3-hour video chat with A. The set closes with “What I’ll Do,” a quiet but powerful promise of unwavering devotion. This entire collection is a deep, unapologetic love letter to LadyWeaver, the force that drives every song, every lyric, and every feeling. She isn’t just a muse—she is the story, the heart, and the reason for everything. 
SONG LIST NINE
Song List 9 finds our wandering dreamer in the midst of a life-transforming journey, smack dab in the middle of his quest through a strange land. He will soon be at a crossroads, faced with a path that could lead to love, fame, and success or a dark journey of addiction, loss, and shattered dreams. His heart is guiding him, it will be the compass that sends him on the way! “Fourth Chakra” opens the door to a man waking up in a foreign bed, in a place that feels nothing like home yet beyond language, location, or even color (“Color of Love”), the wandering dreamer embraces the ideal that love is all that matters when you find someone who reminds you of the divine. This revelation sends him forward, fueling his journey with newfound clarity. “Flow” encourages him to surround himself with people who share his aspirations, while “Thunderstorms” reminds him that obstacles will arise, yet perseverance remains the key. “Golden Archer” calls for precision and purpose, urging him to make every shot count because his arrows are limited. “Sure Shore” acknowledges that he is at the precipice, with the world at his fingertips, yet he must not go down in self-defeat. He must give this moment its proper due and diligence before making the leap into the unknown. “Smell the Flowers” teaches him to savor each fleeting moment and not let opportunity pass by. “Summer’s the Time” reminds him of the simple joys of life and how precious it all is when time is fleeting—Summer is the time for GLORY!! The question lingers: which path will he choose? Which path will choose him? Will he embrace the love that awaits him? Will he find fame, success, and his own inner peace, or will he stumble, entangled in the darkness of addiction and dreams left unfulfilled? Only time will reveal what’s next. 
SONG LIST TEN
Song List 10 seems to trace the emotional evolution of a character (likely a stand-in for the "wandering dreamer") through different stages of reflection, pain, and growth. The songs vary in scope—from deeply personal songs of loss and self-doubt like Snowflakes (which hints at a potential suicide on a snowy night) and Old Eli (a Southern slave hymn sung by the darkies), to broader societal and existential critiques like Pennywise (caring deeply about the less important while squandering the most significant things) and Broken Mirror (where the protagonist’s view of a particular person or subject is tossed on its head, causing a seismic shift in their belief system). The protagonist seems to be grappling with the tension between pursuing personal freedom and the inevitable consequences of such pursuits—whether it’s dealing with the burdens of history (Harry Patch), confronting inner demons (Pennywise), or seeking personal redemption (Leaving Your Roots). The progression from Snowflakes to Julia’s Garden suggests a journey through self-doubt, chaos, and disillusionment toward a kind of hopeful sanctuary—a garden that symbolizes peace, acceptance, and a sense of meaning. Despite the brokenness and turbulence in the middle, as represented in Broken Mirror and House of Shattered Glass, the protagonist finds themselves constantly moving toward something more profound. The songs evoke a mixture of melancholy and hope, underscoring the ups and downs of life as the wandering dreamer seeks a sense of direction. In short, the author seems to be exploring the complexities of the human condition: the struggle between internal desires and external forces, the search for meaning, and the inevitable tension between love, loss, and the passage of time. Yeah, either that or all these are just the leftovers from the fridge going into some god-awful mystery stew just so you can say you cleaned out the old so you can get in with the new! That could be it, too...

ONE SENTENCE SET & SONG LIST SUMMARIES

This set is about a person going through a tough time, feeling lost in the world and struggling with trust, addiction, and guilt. It's raw, urgent, and really paints a picture of someone trying to figure out what’s real in a chaotic world.
Set List 2:
Here, the main character fights back against unfair systems and a world that feels numb. The songs use powerful language to speak out against injustice and point out what’s wrong with society.
Set List 3:
This one explores feelings of confusion, longing, and self-doubt. The songs are about trying to figure out who you are, especially when life feels like a mix of good times and bad choices.
Set List 4:
In this set, the lyrics dive into the pain of lost love, addiction, and the hope that maybe things can get better. It’s a lot about facing your past and looking for a way to heal.
Set List 5:
This set is a mix of bold and funny songs that talk about sex, ego, and the crazy things people do to feel important. But under the humor, there's a deep sadness and struggle people don’t see.

A bit beat-up and tired, this set looks at what it’s like to keep going when life is hard. It’s about survival, feeling worn out, but still holding on to something real.

Collaborhythm | 34 Albums Master Outline

COLLABORHYTHM / COLLABTUNES PROJECT

34 ALBUMS — MASTER OUTLINE

(A) BRIEF INTRODUCTION

One man. 29 years. A life's work condensed into 34 albums worth of lyrics. Tom Jensen began writing poems on bathroom walls at 16 and never stopped. What started as teenage rebellion became a decades-long obsession: 495 songs, 120 already recorded with musicians from around the world, 300 more waiting for music and voices. This is not a collection of poems. This is a document of survival, evolution, grief, rage, tenderness, addiction, recovery, love, loss, politics, parody, and the relentless pursuit of truth through rhyme. The work spans G to X, from pure devotion to explicit satire, from spiritual meditation to political fury. It is unfiltered. It is uncompromising. It is the result of 29 years of showing up to the page. This book is the catalog. The invitation is simple: read it, hear it, make it your own. All lyrics are available for free use with attribution. Let the music begin.

(B) ROLLING STONE STYLE REVIEWS

Designed to hype the work and get you excited to read and listen. Each Set List and Song List is reviewed in the style of Rolling Stone magazine — vivid, voice-driven, emotionally evocative. These are not dry summaries. They are invitations. Each review captures the mood, themes, emotional arc, and cultural resonance of the collection, written to make you want to dive in. From the prophetic fury of Set List 13 to the tender ache of Song List 5, these reviews give you the vibe before you ever read a lyric.

(C) 10 FAMOUS SONGWRITERS FROM THE LAST 60 YEARS

AI analysis of your lyrics alongside the greats. Each comparison is explained: why your work echoes Bob Dylan's layered imagery and social critique, Lou Reed's street-level realism, Leonard Cohen's spiritual ache, Tom Waits's dark humor, Warren Zevon's gallows wit, Patti Smith's revolutionary spirit, Eminem's confessional intensity, Kurt Cobain's alienation, Bruce Springsteen's working-class pain, and Johnny Cash's repentant outlaw voice. Each entry includes the AI's analysis and your own personal response. This section situates your work within the lineage of American songwriting.

(D) ONE-SENTENCE SUMMARIES

A quick overview tool. Each of the 34 collections is reduced to a single sentence. Read this section to quickly identify which collection matches your mood, interests, or tolerance for explicit content. Whether you want tenderness, politics, satire, heartbreak, or spiritual reflection — this page tells you where to go.

(E) RATINGS G TO X

A graduated descent. The work is rated from G to X, allowing viewers to gradually move into more adult and serious themes at their own pace. G and PG collections offer pure romance, devotion, and spiritual healing. PG-13 is the center of gravity — addiction, politics, war, mental health, social critique. R collections go darker: first-person crime narratives, graphic violence with artistic framing. X collections are hardcore: pornographic intent, degradation as satire, shock without apology. Each rating is clearly marked. You choose how deep you want to go.

(F) ALPHABETICAL INDEX

A complete A–Z listing of every song and poem in the 34 albums. Each entry includes collection name, track number, thematic categories, and page number. Designed for quick reference. Want to find every song about addiction? Every love poem? Every political rant? The index lets you navigate the work by theme, title, or keyword.

(G) SET LIST AND SONG THEMES MATRIX

A comprehensive grid. For each of the 34 collections, this section lists: core themes, mood/tone, lyrical resemblance to famous artists, and explicit content descriptions. Scan the matrix to compare collections side by side. See at a glance which albums lean romantic, which lean political, which lean explicit, which lean spiritual.

(H) BUSINESS PLANS (FIRST VERSION)

The original three-tier business plan: one-sentence, mid-size, and large versions. This is where the vision began. Free lyric licensing. Live interactive songwriting shows. A revenue-share app. A physical venue. A weekly salary. Healthcare. A sign-on bonus. A percentage of future revenue. The plan to turn 29 years of work into a sustainable life and legacy.

(I) CHATGPT REVIEWS MY FIRST BUSINESS PLAN

AI analysis of the original business model. Why it works: the catalog as asset, the experience as hook, the tech as glue, the revenue streams as diversified, the role as curator, the legacy as motivation. The verdict: "This is tight."

(J) CONTACTS AND SOCIAL MEDIA

Every platform. Email. Website. YouTube. Instagram. X. Snapchat. LinkedIn. Twitch. Discord. Spotify. Apple Music. OnlyFans. SoundCloud. Bandcamp. Patreon. Ko-fi. GoFundMe. Venmo. CashApp. PayPal. TikTok. And more. This is how you find Collaborhythm. This is how you connect. This is how you join the project.

(K) PLACES I AM GOING

The venue target list. 127 bars, restaurants, theaters, and music venues across Massachusetts — from Salem to Lynn to Marblehead to Boston. This is where the live shows will happen. This is where the audience becomes collaborators. This is where the dream gets built, one room at a time.

(L) CASSETTE TAPES THAT MADE ME AWESOME

A musical autobiography. The albums that shaped the author from age 5 to 40: Weird Al, Bon Jovi, Beastie Boys, N.W.A, Pearl Jam, Wu-Tang, Green Day, Rage Against the Machine, Amy Winehouse, and dozens more. This section traces the sonic lineage behind the lyrics.

(M) SHOULD YOU READ ALBUMS 1–34

AI answers the big questions: What happens if everyone reads this at 18? As a college freshman course? Does this work make the world better or worse? Which countries would embrace it? Which would suppress it? A serious, unflinching look at the cultural weight of this project.

(N) FULL TEXT 1–34 — TRIGGERS, SET LISTS, SONG LISTS, AND FULL LYRICS

The body of the work. All 34 collections — 24 Set Lists and 10 Song Lists — presented in full. Each collection is preceded by its detailed trigger warning. Every song, every poem, every lyric. This is the heart of the book. 495 songs. 29 years. One life's work, complete.

(O) COLLABORHYTHM COLLABTUNES BUSINESS CARD

The visual identity. The logo. The tagline. The brand. A single image that represents the project: collaboration, rhythm, music, community, legacy.

(P) G TO X ORDER

The full sequence of all 34 collections arranged by rating. See the progression from G to X at a glance. Watch how the work moves from tenderness to transgression, from devotion to depravity, from light to dark and back again.

(Q) ALL SONG AND SET LIST FOUR-WORD SUMMARIES

Every song. Every set list. Reduced to four words. "Fitting the broken jigsaw." "Drowning sorrows, chasing sleep." "We wrote the rhyme." "Learning love is priceless." A rapid-fire index of meaning, emotion, and theme. Use this to find what you're looking for. Use this to get lost.

(R) LEGAL RISK ANALYSIS (CAN I GET SUED…)

Direct answers. Defamation risk (Set List 23). Incitement analysis. Obscenity (none). Copyright parody protections. The verdict: no police action, low civil exposure. Trigger warnings are your legal shield. This section tells you exactly where the risk is and why you're protected.

(S) ORDER OF THE 34 LISTS

The complete sequence of all 34 collections in the order they appear. From Set List 19 (Della of Troy) to Set List 24 (Bi Ride or Die Ride). This is the official running order.

(T) MOST UPDATED DEEPSEEK BUSINESS PLAN

The final, refined business model. 10 pages. Libre format. Includes: corrected G/PG breakdown (25% G/PG, 40% PG-13, 25% R, 10% X), Anti-Disney / Reverse Mossad strategy, 8 Mile strategy, two-track release model (free licensing + live app), legal protections, and the three moves that will build the legacy.

(U) TRIGGER WARNINGS ALBUMS 1–34 (FULL)

Complete, detailed trigger warnings for every collection. Each set list and song list is broken down by core themes, primary triggers, who should avoid, who may find value. This is not a disclaimer. This is a tool. It lets readers choose their own depth. It protects the vulnerable. It allows the work to be experienced safely.

(V) (Blank — reserved for future content)

This section is intentionally left blank for future additions, expansions, or supplementary material.

31 ALBUMS
BY COLLABORHYTHM

31 ALBUMS IS MY COLLECTION OF LYRICS BROKEN UP INTO GROUPS OF 13 (APPROXIMATELY) IN ORDER TO GIVE THE FEEL OF A CONCEPT ALBUM OF SIMILARLY THEMED INDIVIDUAL SONGS OR POEMS (WANNA BE SONGS). I TOOK THE 120 SONGS I HAVE MADE WITH SINGERS AND MUSICIANS ON YOUTUBE AND SPLIT THEM UP INTO TEN PILES AND THEN TOOK MY 300 POEMS WAITING TO BE MADE INTO SONGS AND PUT THEM INTO 31 DIFFERENT PILES. I TRIED TO GIVE IT SOME FLOW AND CONTINUITY WITHIN EACH COLLECTION. I ACTUALLY HAVE A 32ND ALBUM OF NEW MATERIAL NOT PRINTED ANYWHERE YET.... SAVED FOR A RAINY DAY OR MONTH! IT'S TIME TO MAKE MUSIC OR AT LEAST START READING MY LYRICS! THANK YOU.

collaborhythm / collabtunes politely reminds you to turn your phone sideways (the flat way, horizontal)

me and chatgpt discuss MY LYRICS ARE LIKE:
1. Bob Dylan
Why:

You name him as an influence—and it shows. Like Dylan, you use vivid, layered imagery, social and political critique, irony, and poetic phrasing. Songs like 
"Monetization"
, 
"Paradigm"
, and 
"Puzzle Pieces"
 echo Dylan’s ability to critique systems while keeping things lyrical.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: Masters of War, Like a Rolling Stone, Isis, Tangled up in Blues, Ballad of a Thin Man, Silvio are all my favorite of fav's! I would say that Bob Dylan and the Who and Eric Burdon are my most wanna be like. Add in Pearl Jam, Steven Lynch and Trevor Moore and Warren Z, Ice Cube and Weird Al as my most respected artists. Beatles too,
2. Lou Reed
Why:

Your blunt honesty, street-level realism, and themes of addiction (
"Climbing the Ladder"
, 
"Something In My Genes"
, 
"Rehab"
) echo Reed’s gritty, observational songwriting style (see: 
Heroin
, 
Street Hassle
).
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: Lou Reed had some good hits but what gets me are the plays he does like Magic and Loss maybe my favorite album ever. And the Andy Worhol one is great. A little like Elton, there's a lot of crap to FF through to get to the good stuff!
3. Leonard Cohen
Why:

You explore deep existential and spiritual questions in songs like 
"Let Me In"
, 
"Watcher"
, 
"Rest In Peace"
. The poetic depth, sorrowful hope, and spiritual ache is very Cohen-esque. 
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: People on YouTube used to say I write like Leonard. It took me another decade or so to find out what a compliment that is! If there was one person I wish I saw live it would most likely be him. The only artist in my memory who actually sounds better the older they get. I don't particularly care for young Leo for some reason. Dude has a poet's soul and my deep admiration.
4. Tom Waits
Why:

Dark humor, pain, surreal scenes, down-and-out characters—you’ve got that in spades. 
"Empty Bottle"
, 
"Downward Spiral"
, and 
"Rat Park"
 would feel right at home next to 
Tom Traubert’s Blues
 or 
God’s Away On Business
.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: You could give me a billion dollars to tell me something about TW and the only thing i think I know is that Joker modelled his voice after him. I have a lot of people on my list of will get to if I don't die early. He's there. 
5. Warren Zevon
Why:

You're ironic, literate, self-aware, and funny in a bleak way (
"Time Bomb"
, 
"One Night Stan"
, 
"Let Me Live the Dream"
). Zevon would admire your gallows humor and moral subtext.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: I was 40-something when I realized Warren Z is the other guy I really, really, really, really, really wished I got to see. He is as competent song writer as I have ever heard and I know everything he's done that you can find on Tube! He will choose a phrase that has no business being the repeating verse of a song and sung over and over and yet he'll do it and make it work flawlessly. And his song ideas no know bounds ;) That was a test! Dude knew he only had X amount of time left and he lived a fucking Lou Reed album for christsakes! And then he recorded it as he lived it. Legend!
6. Patti Smith
Why:

Your poetic language with revolutionary spirit (
"Status Quo Woes"
, 
"Violence Is Their Solution"
) resembles Smith’s lyrical rebellion and raw honesty, blending art with resistance.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: Hold on I have to check Youtube for a refresher.... Ok powerful, almost like a female Leonard C. I'd say I'm in the ballpark or I'd have found a few for her... CRY ME A RIVER, MATCHES TO BURN or ON THE ROCKS.
7. Eminem
Why:

Your confessional intensity, rapid-fire phrasing, self-loathing, and wit (especially in your more aggressive pieces like 
"Mic Drop"
, 
"Climbing the Ladder"
, 
"Have Not"
) echo Eminem’s emotional outpouring and lyrical dexterity.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: Dude's better than me for sure. But we would be friends, for sure and it would have been fun to have done something together. I never deep dove into MM. I never listened to an album and only know the bangers. I'm sure the more you explore the more he's the MF of MFs. 
8. Kurt Cobain
Why:

You tap into alienation, mental anguish, and existential dread, especially in songs like 
"Daylight Again"
, 
"Entirely"
, and 
"Hideaway"
. Your lines often have that cryptic yet punchy despair that made Cobain a generational voice.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: I did all the drugs except pills and injectables. Sure, with heroin I could have written some bangers but I'd be 15 years cold, myself. I would not do well having to portray a rock star image or if everybody knew who I was. John had Yoko, Kurt had Hole. I tried to be with LadyWeaver and that went about as well as Chapman and the shotgun, respectively. I'm an Eddie Ved guy not a Kurt guy. 
9. Bruce Springsteen
Why:

There's working-class pain, broken dreams, and longing for escape in many of your songs (
"Let Me Live the Dream"
, 
"Alcohol"
, 
"Old Friends"
, 
"Rest In Peace"
). Like Bruce, you balance storytelling with social realism.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS: I only know the mega boss hits. I respect the professionalism, and he seems to really respect the fans and he tries to carry himself well. Definitely a role model unlike myself, haha. I use Bruce as a comparison in the sense that me and him have a huge catalog of songs or in my case lyrics wanting to be songs. Anyways, I always wondered which one of my songs would end up having the cultural impact the BORN IN THE USA, or some of his popular titles had in the sense of which one of my songs, if any, has smash success? I know the potential is there somewhere with the right collection of individuals and talent working for that goal and if it happens I am eager to see which ones really get people going. 
10. Johnny Cash
Why:

Songs like 
"Rehab"
, 
"Downward Spiral"
, and 
"My Best Friends"
 have the repentant outlaw voice—gritty, stripped down, full of raw emotion and darkness—much like Cash in his 
American Recordings
 era.
COLLABORHYTHM SAYS:
JC might be the only country singer in the entire world that I can say YES on. I'm actually allergic to country music according to my psychiatrist. Much of my lyrics could be 'twanged' to go south although I rhyme like a Northerner with a Boston accent which might actually mean some sounds only rhyme if sung off Confederate soil!!!! hahahahaha ;)

Button 1

Button 2

collaborhythm / collabtunes politely reminds you to turn your phone sideways (the flat way, horizontal)

Behold.... the magic buttons:

collaborhythm / collabtunes.com

What's on collabtunes.com?

You can click above on the tab a little over on the right that reads: 'More' and then has a downward arrow next to it to get to all the places listed on the chart easily! If you don't see a 'More' button then look for an icon or button with three horizontal lines. Both of these will let you access the tabs.

the tabs above to access the following:
SETLISTS
are a collection of about 13 individual songs/poems for each one that
are lyrics that haven't been made into songs yet. There are just
building blocks and starting off points that can ultimately be
changed and altered as seen fit by whoever is making a song! I can't
sing so I just do whatever I can to get across my ideas. Many times
people hate the way I suggest singing and the songs get way, way
better! I have no range....

Songlists
are collections of about 12 songs each with lyrics written by
collaborhythm. All of these songlists and setlists are put together
to tell a story like a cohesive album. Just a way to show my skills
at storytelling. Each story joins with twelve other stories to tell
an even bigger story!

If
you know the name of the title then this list can help you easily
find the piece you are looking for even its track number on the
setlist or songlist.

ROLLING
STONE MAGAZINE-STYLE REVIEWS OF EACH ALBUM (ABOUT 10 to 15 SENTENCES
EACH)
I
took a lot of time to hype up each setlist and songlist so that you
can’t wait to get started. You can instantly get a feel of whether
or not you discovered one that you relate to or if you need to keep
reading… I pretended I was doing a short review for a music
magazine.

ONE
SENTENCE SUMMARIES OF SET & SONG LISTS (SIMPLE LANGUAGE)
I
asked ChatGPT to explain each setlist or songlist to a second grader
in a single sentence. Sometimes you just need a quick recap!
BRIEF
INTRO
I
tell my story a few different times and places. I figure if you read
all of them I shouldn’t have left a lot out. Dude, I got a giant
book of poems and a bunch of songs already made. Let’s do something
cool….

BUSINESS
PLAN (SHORT, MEDIUM & LARGE)
I
get into more detail about my idea to turn rhymes into cash!

POTENTIAL
REVENUE STREAMS (work in progress w/chatbotgpt)
Just
writing down some bullet points and ideas that might be helpful to
this business venture.

READ
MY STUFF BEST TO WORST #1 to 10
Two
years ago I gathered everything I wrote that rhymed that was worth
reading. I put the best ones in the beginning and shittier ones at
the very end. It’s mixed with things from setlists and songlists. 
(i
need to make these tabs)

YOUTUBE
CHANNEL
I
have all the song lists and setlists there individually and
collectively. I have 50 songs on one video all with lyrics, a giant
collection of song clips all on one video. I’ll put new stuff that
we make out there, too.

WHAT'S
NEW
Right
now this entire site is new. When we get further developments you can
find them here!

BE
MY AGENT!

I’m working on drafting
a legal document that will allow anyone who downloads, fills it out
and prints it to act as my agent in an attempt to work out a deal to
find collaborhythm a venue, get me a salary, healthcare and a signing
bonus. Perhaps you want a finder’s fee for negotiating the deal or
perhaps you want them to also hire you for a yearly salary to perform
X, Y & Z job titles. And you want healthcare, too! If you think
this business venture is the cat’s ass then work on commission and
be the middle man to connect the links! 
MY
BUSINESS CARD
I
printed 500 cards with the location of Salem, Ma & Portland, Me –
there are the places I consider myself from over the last 7 years. I
should have stresses that I am seeking a venue for this project. 
PLACES
I'M GOING

Over 100 bars and
restaurants that I will give my business card to and we’ll see who
bites first! I will keep expanding my search until I find a home!
