Angel

Angel, take this pain away

And ease my troubled mind

Take me to that sacred place

That only lovers find

Take this heart into your hands

And heal it with your touch

Let me know the kind of love

That lives in dreams and such

Lose me in your loving eyes

Find me in your heart

Mesmerize me with your smile

As you have from the start

Let me hear your laughter

And tell me they’ll be more

Give me hope for one day

And all it has in store

Slip your hand inside of mine

These feelings I can’t hide

Always live inside this heart

Forever by my side

Adam and Steve

Adam was a lonely boy

Who kept to himself

With his dreams in the closet

And his heart on the shelf

A cold world had forced him

Those feelings to hide

Denying his longings

He kept them inside

Steve was an outcast

He was a prodigal son

Tried and convicted

For nothing he’d done

Society viewed him

As something unclean

In a world filled with hatred

So angry and mean

Then Adam found Steve

And they fit like a glove

You see, people are people

And love is just love

No matter what your religion

Or what you believe

If there’s a God up above

He loves Adam and Steve

Slings and Arrows

I have no defenses

For liars and fools

For dark hearted spirits

Who make their own rules

The world that they live in

Must be dark and grey

I have my opinion

But I really can’t say

They made me a target

I paid a steep cost

I’m nobody’s savior

But I’m here on this cross

They say that they love you

And plot their attack

A hand reaches for you

With a knife for your back

You know who you are

And now so do I

You live like a martyr

And so shall you die

The darkness inside you

Will leave your heart torn

And when you are gone

There'll be no one to mourn
