    One boring day, I sat on my porch
    Surrounded by my friends of the past.
    We chatted about current conquests
    and the good ol' days
    while passing around the smoking bowl.

    We sang the songs we used to sing,
    back in '94 or '95.
    Blind Melon, Sublime, Nirvana.
    Those were the tunes we jammed to
    while passing that smoking bowl around.

    What happened to those days,
    we thought noglistacally.
    We grew up and moved on.
    The smoking bowl was no longer passed.

    Well, some of us had but others were
    still living the same old life.
    House arrest, weekends in county jail?
    That's not the life for me
    Let's leave the smoking bowl in the past.

    Peace and love

    Come sit with me under the maple tree.
    Let's listen to Bob and Tom
    and enjoy our morning cigarette together.

    Let's laugh at the many wisecracks they make
    at various celebrities such as Mel Gipson,
    Michael Jackson, and of course, Courtney Love.

    Let's enjoy this moment of peace
    we are sharing in the back yard
    with the blazing sun rising above us.

    Peace and love

    There's no attention span
    so what's the master plan?
    Just to write out a verse?
    This gift is nothing but a curse.

    Sprawling out for all to see,
    the ticket sells for free.
    Hear me out just this once,
    perhaps I won't be the dunce.

    My heart lays on my bed,
    the place to rest my head.
    Does this make sense?
    My words, I don't mince.

    Speaking simply now
    I feel like a cow.
    Trudging without grace,
    better than a fall on my face...

    Peace and love

    Drifting away to another land,
    a far away place with exotic life.
    Not like this boring town.

    Adventure lay ahead as I
    leave behind my dreary past.
    I would rather forget about it.

    Sunny days lie before me
    without a single drop of rain,
    unlike the gloomy days of yester year.

    Rolling hills of chartruese grass
    occupy the purple horizen.
    So different from my shithole life.

    BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ!
    I was rudely interrupted
    from my nightly vacation
    to a far away place
    I will never reach.

    Peace and love

    I'm falling away from you,
    drifting ever-so far apart.
    Do you even have a clue?
    Can't you feel it in your heart?

    Shit doesn't seem alright,
    I can't decide exaclty why.
    Maybe you can shed some light
    without ignoring me with a lie.

    Maybe I'm too blind to see
    what's been going on today.
    You don't want to be with me
    but would rather find someone else to lay.

    That's the sad truth I fear
    but what can I do about it?
    Have some vodka and beer;
    drown my sorrows in that shit.

    Peace and Love

    Sitting on the sidelines,
    always the odd man out.
    Feels like I don't fit in
    or can't or won't

    Just hopeless on the
    outside looking in
    the window pane
    on all those people
    with all their friends,
    while I sit all alone.

    I feel so abandoned,
    without a trace of hope
    of finding someone
    who understands me.

    I'm not the only one
    who feels this way,
    but am I the only one
    who feels like it right now?

    Peace and Love

    So alone
    in a room filled with people.

    My own loneliness consumes
    my heart and soul,
    no worse a fate can be than

    Drowning in a sea of still water,
    bleeding to death
    in a serene meadow.

    The fight seems hopeless,
    no method of winning
    comes to mind.

    Then a shy boy steps
    across the void and
    he says "Hi"
    and everything seems okay.

    Peace and love

    It reminds me of my ''Stuff" back in my teen years.

    The depths of depression lie far below
    what any superhuman can face.

    Most people can't understand the constant pain,
    the anguish from feeling so alone, so isolated
    from the rest of the world.

    To feel dismissed by those closest to you,
    to feel the unbearable feeling of emptiness.
    Please, someone fill the void.
    Stop these tears from falling.

    But the lonely truth is that no one
    is able to fufill your needs.
    Only you though what do you do when
    you can't help yourself?

    Where do broken dreams fall and
    shattered hearts rest?
    This is the place I am,
    here between no where and nothing.

    Peace and love

    Hey Hippie_chick,

    I really like "The depths of depression' sounds like it comes from the soul.
