I didn't want to take away from Ani's thread and poem, so here goes....
This has 50 Sweet song titles in it. Took a bit to manipulate and have it make sense, but it got done ok..
"Tripping Into The Past"
Got my mind thinking
In a dream on kind of way,
How your past crawls back like a cockroach
And a dangerous game again we play..
There’s a fountain of reminders
And the sixteens come flying back,
We breakdown and daydream
Look for the lost action we lack..
This doesn’t fade away
Even into the night,
Jump the fence back into time
And that leap of faith, again, sets all right..
Hold me once again
Like you’re crazy and free,
Like a miss demeanour living inside
As the truest healer allows you to see..
At midnight you get hit
Funk it up, live for the day,
Your past no longer slow motion
Tell yourself I’m on my way..
Chop chop and call me
In a blockbuster kind of tone,
I’ll be with you soon, in a fever of love
No one can take away the music that’s our own..
Let’s do it again
Our souls a Dorian Gray,
Yell proudly I wanna be committed
I wish you would do as I say..
It’s lonely out there
And it makes me wonder most,
Is this an identity crisis or am I invisible
Should I stand up to the hellraiser I host..
Keeping the eye games under wraps
As you hide the inner fox on the run,
You’d do it all over again, and again
Like white mice in their wheel of fun..
Not all of us are airheads and cover girls
We get ourselves hypnotized by laughter and pain....
We see the hard times and the heartbreak today
So set me free, please, in yesterday’s rain.
