Wicked Game by Hauser on his wicked cello....omg




On The Other Side of The Other Side




On The Other Side of the Other Side




Out there in the cold gray dawn
I see you in the mist
Your face so sad and vulnerable
Needing to be kissed.

I cannot bear to see it
I cannot bear to feel
And yet I do not really know
If it is false or real.

You raise your hopeful eyes to me
A tear runs down your face
You plead with me yet silently
To all your fears, erase.

And I don't know the way to go
To make you smile again
Two lovers, we, so wild and free
That started out as friends.

Then love stepped in and pulled us
Down to love's dark depths
So star-crossed, we, so love starved, we
Needing love, despaired, bereft.

And the more we loved, the more we wanted
The more it slipped our grasp
And futures bright bade us goodnight
And slipped into our past.

What good is love if it can't live
Within the present time?
What good is love if it can't exist
Outside the tortured mind?

I ache to hold you desperately
In my two arms so tight
To bid you stay here in the day
And banish the lonely night.

But wishes are only wishes
And hope is just a yen
And yearning is just a dream undreamed
Of what might have, could have been.

I see you in the mist of dawn
Your head bowed on your chest
Waiting for me to come to you
And give your soul a rest.

But here between the two of us
There stands an invisible door
'Twixt tangible and ethereal
And it won't open any more.

I've tried to break it down with tears
I've tried a hammer's pounding
But the hammer bounced back in my hand
And in my tears I just fell, drowning.

I watch you in that mirror now
There on on the other side
Waiting to see if you can find the key
To the place where I reside.

What cruel, cruel fate, the two of us
Have been assigned and yet
We're sentenced to recall the rise and fall
And the love we can't forget.

My love, I know you hear me
There on your side of this
Unhappy world where boy and girl
Were wedded with one kiss.

Then torn apart with breaking hearts
To exist in the world alone
Watching one another fade
Till the two of us are gone.

The Wrong Road To The Right Place



























The Wrong Road To The Right Place




Whistlin' in the dark
As I traverse this here dark road
This road that ain't found on no road map
Nor on no piece of paper
Nor drawn on a napkin by a "greasy spoon" waitress.

No, this road don't rightly take you no wheres
Didn't start no wheres and who but God 
                      Knows where it ends..................

I don't. Or I didn't.

I just closed my eyes as I stood there
At the fork in the road and threw a stolen rose
Over my left shoulder
                 And it fell to the right............
And that is how I ended up
        On this here dusty road tryin' to get to Heaven......

Honk HONK!!!! Get out  of the road, you OLD fool!!!!

(Some kid feeling his oats in his daddy's car, I reckon)

NO.....some wanna-be gangster boy from up North
wantin' to mess with somebody out here on these back roads.....

What am I lookin' for?

    You tell me........boy!

You're the Son of A Gun askin' the questions!
I didn't ask you nothin'
And I reckon that's what I 'll get.....

Story of my life.....Always nothin'!.

The Bible says: You have NOT
  'Cause you ASK not............

But I don't know what to ask fer
(I don't want to get...smited) (SMOTED?) Kilt...
Lord, I don't know....God always uses such BIG words...
My brain can't hardly ascertain the little ones
Like thee and Thou and How Now Brown Cow....

Oh, wait! That ain't scripture, is it? Or is it?
Shoot! I don't know nothin. I'm half heathen, I guess
But I AIM to make HEAVEN my HOME!

WHERE AM I GOING?
   you just full of questions, ain't ye???
Dang fool Yankee!!! (sotto voce)

You don't hear me goin' off half cocked
Askin' you jack! 

                  Mostly, 'cause I don't care

And secondly, 'Cause I don't CARE!

Tears Have Been My Companions






Tears Have Been My Companions 




Lost years had shadowed me so long
I couldn't see the sun
I couldn't find the strength to crawl
Never mind to run.......

I looked in the mirror and every day
A stranger looked back there at me
She covered my eyes and filled me with lies
And pure darkness was all I could see........

What hope that I found was found in the sound
Of the music that played in the world
And when it died, I died inside
A lost and lonely girl..........

I didn't know just who I was
I didn't know my name
The more I changed and tried to fit
The more things stayed the same.........

Putting on the costumes
They gave me for the parts
I read my lines and took my bows
With the other broken hearts.........

Crying in the mid of night
My pillow stained and torn
From screaming questions out of fright
And torment hard to be borne..........

I lived in fear. I lived with tears
My life was filled with grief
I laughed and played my parts so well
But tears were my relief........

And now, but now, I've found myself
The true me, after all
The building that I thought I was
I watched it burn and fall...........

And tears are still my companions
Though not instruments for fear to employ
To my great surprise, when Love touched my eyes
Those same tears filled my eyes with joy.
