Wrong

For some time, I’ve been driving around thinking about it.
The guilt has me driven by autopilot.
Sliding on ice, no brakes wondering where I’m headed.
All my friends tell me, Danny gotta think about it.
All my questions circle me to where I started.
Out of excuses, time to face it up and say
I’m wrong, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking,
I’m wrong. There’s no point in spinning
I’m wrong, and I’d like to admit and work my way back,
It takes a wise person to step back,
And mark yourself a new trail - a new map
A new revision to your first plan.
And know in life it's not all first drafts
Your omelette must have two halves
The melt is magic if you can cut down the heat and not burn out.
Tread lightly,
Eye contact,
Don’t let your Id take you back.
I’m right when I’d rather be wrong.
I’m lost when I try to right a song for you.
Too caustic to sing from the soul.
I’m wrong but the only one right for you.
I’m right when I’d rather be wrong.

Understatement of the year. Thanks.
See you later.
This game is cancelled on account of inclement weather.
I’ll wait for the night to put us back together
If fate has the right to bring us something Better
If it's a long time from now, you’ll think about it later,
Play some NBA 2k, or Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
Sink a shot, kick a flip, look how the times gone by/
In a tour bus on the road
In a season of staying home,
In a life I’ll never know……
I’ll wait for the night to put us back together
If Fate has the right to bring us something Better
I’m listening to you.

Another Lesson Learned
03:35
|

|
Have you ever felt you left a bad impression?
You wish you could, have another try,
And you wondered,
Why this had to happen.
Because after all
You were just being you.
Algorithms sending you,
Everywhere you go
From A to B on GPS
Where you’re going next, it's all up to you
You’re now becomes then, and you can chalk it up to
Another lesson learned
Trained to find your information,
Trained to learn from you.
Artiffically examining all your exams too!
Baffling concentric circles now encircle you.
Mapping out all of the thoughts and words you'll likely use
Everything I have learned is everything I can’t do
Everything I have learned I can chalk up to.

Train Tracks

Corn fields look like running horses.
Cold steel, hardens in the forceps.
New will, dominates the old.
On train tracks, we extract,
And mine out, these isles.
We send off in smoke stacks,
The profits from train tracks.
The networks,
And shipments,
The movement
Begins.
On train tracks,
The valleys,
And inclines,
All play in.
Through calm
And dark wood.
Go value,
And trade goods,
From Baltimore and Ohio
Laying first stones.
On train tracks.
On train tracks.

Circle Back Around

All I’ve taught
Is trying to be kind enough to
Gain a brighter future. Invest in my own energy
A light that shines upon a future street.
Heard you slam the door, for a phone call you had to take,
The news wasn't what you were hoping for, new problems now facing you.
The choices seem limited to none.
All I hoped,
For you to have the foundation,
To Find your own way, evade all of this hesitation
Writing all your own wishes and goals.
Tell me now,
As you write your final reports.
You’ll forget me as a passing face.
Share with your friends,
The knowledge and the lessons learned,
The trees planted, and roots that roots that burned away.
All I taught, is everything I learned too late.
Something you have learned before I did.
Circle back around!
Don’t forget to say hello!
Zero sum gains can't be what we take from life.

Sara's Sky

In Sara’s sky, I wait.
Forever, is our fate.
In Candle light, I wake.
In rolling, drag the lake.
In Sara’s Sky, I wait.
A constellation away,
Stardom has not rewarded me
Ptolemy, why did you lead me this way?
Sara, Sara, Sara!
Track with me

Bubbles rise, to the top of your glass.
Ice falls in, splashes waves sent into your past.
Forming moments,
Clouding evaporating
Time lost to hesitating gone.
If you go, go,
I dont need to know
The glass returns to the temperature of the room,
You’ve stopped sipping long ago.
You used to take advantage,
You manipulated
Now its all obfuscated, and you are not the one defining.
