By Michael (singing a wordless tune softly)
Date: 13 June 2000

I'd sing it

I'd sing it. First gold master mix

My one real relationship was like Brandy sings
Almost doesn't count

My head was like Tesla
Though I sang a love song
It just drove me crazy

My body is battered like Trent
I felt somewhat damaged though
We're in this together.

My tears are soft like Sarah
I'm good enough and
I've already told her a million times
I will remember you.

My ego is emaciated like a Stone temple Pilot
Never had a serious sex type thing
More like creep, though I'd call it plush
plus the sour girl left me with a big empty hole
I've filled it with myself

My voice is strong like Vedder.
She found a better man and I got Id.
I'm loving forever even though it's stained black
I know there are oceans between us
I tell her I know who you are and it makes me smile
when the sun don't shine and even when it does
and I tell her this is not for you
even though right here
me and her still have a state of love and trust
I'm not going to hold my breath
I was a yellow ledbetter in hiding
but now I'm given to fly
I decided to do the evolution
I left my wishlist on the porch
she has released me
I'm putting all those yesterdays to rest

My heart is eternally broken with Adam.
It's been a long December
Got out of perfect blue buildings
I'm doing a walkaways from my past.
I can't wait for the finality of August and everything after
I could spend a lifetime recovering the sattellites
but I don't want to be the Rain King
and I don't want to participate in the murder of one
and I don't care if it's raining in baltimore
so Anna ends it time and time again and
I've been hanging around the angels of the silences too long.
I wanna dance like Mr Jones.
See baby I'm a big star now

My wings are strong like Tori
I cried a thousand oceans
while waiting silent all these years
Hoping for that spark of recognition in a lady's eyes
Tired of all these little earthquakes
I don't need to crucify myself.
I'm taking to the sky.

My eyes are intense like Fiona
I have been a shadowboxer
but I don't sleep to dream
Bored of chasing a criminal that won't confess
She got caught by somebody else anyway
I'm dancing and flailing before I go limp.
Time to get gone and stop chasing paper bags.
Sitting in limbo waiting for the right woman to use me
I want to make a mistake though I know better

My smile is sexy singing with Jewel
I'm flirting with everyone on my stage
Tired of singing you were meant for me
Tired of these foolish games
she said love me but leave me alone
It's over, I'm sensitive and sometimes it be that way
What matters is the heart

My fire is fierce like Creed
Spent too long with arms wide open
I'm torn, but out of my own prision
I'm wondering what this life is for.
I asked her - Is this the end my friend?
I ask you - can you take me higher?

My spirit is alive like Live
I gotta do an operation on my spirit
stop bridging the damn over otter creek
Stop thinking this white discussion
will get me anything I can hold onto
put the book down
enjoy the beauty of gray
Hear the dolphins cry

My ears are listening for another kind of Whitney Houston
Instead of I will always love you
I need your love is my love
Dunno what your name is though

My will is like T'pau
Not afraid to give a little heart and soul

My wish is for something good like Robyn
Show me love

If I knew your name I'd sing it.
I know I will eventually.
Come sing with me.
Hurry lady.
My voice is getting hoarse.
