Lyrics: It's the same old story, we hear again and again There's but a sip of pleasure, within a glass full of pain Seduced by a solvent, drunk on illusion Hope, merely the froth above this empty solution Relations failing, but find it hard to cease As convenience perpetuates this brand new disease Some are stuck, caught in a trap They live in a box, and their fear is the wrap Far from a gift, they can offer to you You only get coal, and cold residue
So leave the past as dead, bring on the future to come Now's the only moment, The Only One, The Only One Tangled web before me, strewn, grey, entwined Lingering promises, faded smiles, echo in time A brief embrace, a flustered face, a nibble of heaven Just a taste This phantom feeling, ghost of passion, reveals itself before you, and then dissipates
So the past is dead, the future yet to come Now's the only moment, The Only One, The Only One Pages will turn, the chapters will pass Perhaps pleasure can overfill the glass The book of now is written today The story will become what it may You let down your guard, but hit a wall hard Not completely let in, for you're still a wild card The hands have been dealt, and you got an ace But you may be beaten by the full house in place The high card can't win if that house remains, and The one that you love cannot break from the chains
So leave the past as dead, bring on the future to come Now's the only moment, The Only One, The Only One

  • You rule boss.really.

  • @IVIyboss Thanx again Boss.

  • Aaron, this is fucking terrific.

  • @theScytheofGod Thanx much for the kind props sir. I dig when folks can appreciate what I do. No mystery here, just a guy writin' some tunes, but much is soon to change with a move out east. You're in New York? Coolness, I won't be far, as I'm starting something rather interesting with a particular female vocalist/songwriter soon. Doin' the whole nine yards, hehe, one last shot at the real deal. Thanx again, keep in touch. L8

  • This one was another fun day messing around while inspired. I wish I could be inspired, disciplined, and true to my potential more, but I act on impulses that reveal themselves less times, than more.  Cheere, and thanx, apb

  • Nice work man.

  • Hehe, I thank you for the killer comment sir. I write when I feel it from within. It does not happen often, but when it does, it's from the heart stuff. I love the art, the process, and 27 years on the guitar doesn't hurt. I like songs, good ones, and for another to see my work as legit, is very soothing. I'm glad that you enjoyed this, apb

  • Hey!

    It is the chilling roar of the engines!

    Amazing man!!!10 stars!
