What’s It About

 What’s It About


Trigger trigger 

Make me figure 

It out.   What’s it about. 


Foolish games

And a lot of wasted time 

I’m not to hear to spill tea

But if I drop the pot it’s piping hot. 


Wanna know about him 

He’s the devil in moonlight

He’ll lure you in and then

Ruin all that’s good in you. 

I was left in his trash

I built myself up and now

I’m better than ever but 


Bang  bang bang bang

And Still I sang 

My tale.  What’s it about

Trigger trigger 

Make me figure 

It out.   What’s it about. 


Foolish games 

And a lot of wasted time 

I’m not to hear to spill tea

But if I drop the pot it’s piping hot.


What about my past yes

Let’s get all in that my friends

I did drugs, fucked a town

And walked away from it all

I was sin but I’m try

To rise above my mistakes 

I’m better than that but...


Uno dos tres

Despite his lies

I’m true    What’s it about

Bang  bang bang bang

And Still I sang 

My tale.  What’s it about

Trigger trigger 

Make me figure 

It out.   What’s it about. 


Foolish games 

And a lot of wasted time 

I’m not to hear to spill tea

But if I drop the pot it’s piping hot.

Can U Manage?

 Can U Manage?


The night is dark

The sun is warm 

These are simple things 

Your vacant head can’t comprehend 


I need you to know

You aren’t the first 

You won’t be the last 

But right now.   Here and now

You’re what matters


I don’t think to the future 

I don’t dream of the past.  

All I want is right now 

Get it through your thick head. 


Is right now. 

Keeping it simple. 

Can you manage?


The light is bright 

And ice is cold 

These are basic things 

You’d lie and say do not exist 


I need to just say 

You were the worst

Thank god you’re the past 

But that time, you were mine

You’re what matters 


I wish that you had listened 

Dreams that will never last 

All I want is for us 

To be ourselves and what  ...


Is right now. 

Keeping it simple. 

Can you manage?


Kind is blind

Intertwined

No one knows

Ourselves 

 

I wanted to be your only

A fantasy we hide 

Despite us all I want 

Is what we don’t know and 


Is right now. 

Keeping it simple. 

Can you manage?

Doesn’t Matter

 Doesn’t Matter


I don’t know what’s true or what’s real

The lies they testify they swear

It’s all lies nothing but despair. 


I need your touch 

And your love 

Am i a fool 

To believe. 


There aren’t enough hours in the day

And not enough to testify  

About the lies 

I cry 


I try and try 

To be better

But this doesn’t matter

None of it does. 


At times I don’t know how to feel 

And how much of myself I dare

To bare in this life that not fair 


I need your trust

With your lust 

Am I your tool

Should I leave


There aren’t enough words that I could say 

And None of them could rectify 

All my lies

I cry


I try and try 

To be better

But this doesn’t matter

None of it does. 


There is nothing left (I’m out here alone)

It doesn’t matter (anyway)

Despite me

I die


I try and try 

To be better

But this doesn’t matter

None of it does.

Time (is slippery), All I Know


Remember having aspirations 

Of the future

Childish dreams of who we could be

Well we are here now and 

Where do we stand. 


I reach for the future

Angrily

It should be mine 

Damn it


I don’t know what tomorrow means

Or what it has in store for me 

I’m living in the moment 

With baited breath. 


All I know for sure is the past

And maybe today

Tomorrow isn’t clear

And forever is more vague


It thought so much of my forever

When I had no clue 

Realistic dreams were unfulfilled  

Not without effort and 

Talent to stand 


The disappointment now

Is okay 

It should be fine 

But wait 


I can’t see how my story reads

Or how they feel about me

A story not fair 

But it’s okay. 


All I know for sure is the past

And maybe today

Tomorrow isn’t clear

And forever is more vague


The time is slippery

I can’t hold on to a moment

Without it slipping away.

I try and I try but... but... but...  


All I know for sure is the past

And maybe today

Tomorrow isn’t clear

And forever is more vague

Fraud

 Fraud


See my face

Tell me you love me

Even if it’s a lie

What’s wrong with that 


I’m becoming better 

In the bitter and ether 

And I see...  


You claim to be the one and only

Yet you are anything but worthy

I tried to believe in your story 

But I was left in the cold only 

To say...


You’re a fraud 

Fraud fraud fraud 

You’re a fraud. 


Save myself 

From eternity 

We can try to cry 

Without the facts 


I’m seeing it clearer now

What was passive is the wow 

And I feel...


This is a moment that we can share 

But it’s true nothing is ever fair 

I tried to believe in love should I dare 

The human in me was so scared 

To say...  


You’re a fraud 

Fraud fraud fraud 

You’re a fraud. 


You don’t know

Your ego is abound 

I sing this song for you 

Who are you

Beyond your self is nil 

I sing this song for you. 


You’re a fraud 

Fraud fraud fraud 

You’re a fraud. 


混乱


I don’t know

I’ve never seen

What is this

I can’t say 


Who is this person in the mirror

What are these lies I’m hearing 

Why are they saying such things 

When will anything make sense 


混乱

I can’t tell

I can’t see

混乱

I can’t know

I can’t say 


知りません

I’ve never seen

What is this now 

言えます


Why am I a finger to a trigger 

And why do you subject feelings 

I’ve yet to comprehend things 

These feelings are all amiss. 


混乱

I can’t tell

I can’t see

混乱

I can’t know

I can’t say 


Disorder, chaos

混乱

Confusion, mayhem

混乱


知りません

見たことない

言えます


混乱

I can’t tell

I can’t see

混乱

I can’t know

I can’t say

Jane Hall

 Jane Hall



Where do you come from 

Who were you 

How’s your mom and them

I’d never know 

Because you’re an enigma 


Do you know your children 

Rhoda yes 

Cora maybe

William no?


And who am I?

The child of Rhoda Faye

And of Viola

And the child of Rhoda

The children of Jane Hall


What is your story 

What’s your tale

What’s your history 

That’s to be told

Because the dead say nothing 


What could be your dreams 

Clarence?

Or Dover Jack

Jewel eh?


And who am I?

maternal patriarch 

The wrong chromosome. 

The right spirit in this 

But just what can Jane tell. 


What is your story 

What’s your tale

What’s your history 

That’s to be told

Because the dead say nothing 


Jane.  Janet?  Jamesha? 

Mama

The enigma 

Why won’t you tell me 


What is your story 

What’s your tale

What’s your history 

That’s to be told

Because the dead say nothing
