dear idol i
want to be like you
dear idol i
want to be you
scratched your name into my arms
your face is my tattoo
your tattoo is my face
i've been listening a decade
there is something about the way he sings
his lyrics are a mystery,
old like a redwood's age rings.
everyone knows his name
they worship the man, Hozier
everyone knows of his fame.
We have a light in our hearts
Those dreams that have made us stars
But you've been staying out having fun
Time and time again
You said those games would end
You're a picky one
You're having delusions of grandeur.
Your heart is racing fast,
Enebriated. You think you're inspired
But this isn't going to last.
Is it better to know or be known?
If it is knowledge that is power, which realm does one call home?
It is fair to say,
even though very cliche,
beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I shall have a love that cannot be found
Like a single rose roasting in the sun
Never had I thought that I would be bound
By the things that made me feel emotion
The cameras flickered all over the place
But to only one direction were they intended
The figure that stood like a sculpture
Like displayed gold that everyone tried to get a glimpse
Marionette onu! The big heroine
im a self made man
said the stud in the
backlit
studio a small-screen personality of
the glorious yesterday leaned over
a curvy glossy desk and listened
with frank disinterest though he was very
I've got a word for everybody,
Ain't nobody's gon call me 'buddy'
Until I've done something nasty like sell my soul to the earthly daddy,
Do you like your photo taken?
Can you stand without even shaken?
Sometimes if u with a dime you need to separate No magnets , no clamps, no bands , ain't no fish and bate I ain't no show and tell Ain't no presentation Treating me like Ima alien inside this nation You try to stop me with my hands up This ain't
Nightclub singer walking downtown
French scene
Alone on stage,
I own the stage
I'll play you a song or two if you're kind
I sing the same old tunes
The same old blues
We all say Emily Dickinson in our sleep
And watch Van Gogh as we eat,
They say it's best to read your bible and that it's best to have a title,don't worship false idols, who's to choose, well at the top of the list is,"if it's at all tribal" it shouldn't exist,
Radiance, torridity and stars exploding on the inside of your eyelids.
Symphonies of light and sound, and hell with it’s unwithstandable blazing.
No one else
Under its scrutiny
Its light
Because you are under it
All of your faults on display
Just out there
Exposed
And for
EVERYONE to see
But you must show them
Her name
Was Insane Jane
She was insane in her brain
She was always afraid of being on a plane
Her Brother Wayne
Was always a pain
And walked with a cane
you all are so self inclined
like your strugles are any worse than mine.
like you could be any greater than me,
just because you wrote your feelings in lines?
Oh, how wonderful it must be,
but our hearts are on the brinkof killing us quickpoisoning our veinsand melting our brainswhere have we gonefaded into the shadows
Standing behind the curtains
Hiding from the crowd
He really wants to see her openly
But his presence is too loud
She’s been waiting for her moment
It seems it’s finally here
You’ll be famous one day, love
Shooting up to soar with the stars
Where some have faded,
But will never burn out
And up in the sky you’ll have your moment
Of being the brightest star in the darkest night
I am Bill Gates
At least I wish to beileve that's true
A high school drop out with fantasies that explains
If he can do it I can do it too
I get it.
We grow up.
Or maybe we grow out...
We grow out of clothes and shoes,
Maybe we can grow out of friendships.
I didn't want to.
I knitted my heart ten times bigger than I
Down the ground lookin' so low
All i want to know
will I go high, so high that I cant touch the ground?
Stuck in this cage with ties that i cant abound
I want to be more than this
with my uniquness
They're selling "dreams" for the price of your soul.
Wrapped in pretty green paper,
I went to sleep and I had this dream
Bright lights and a brand new car
They told me to go where I saw the yellow beam
I was just 19 when i finished highschool and didnt quite know if i could get into a good school. The ambition I have put me on a higher level then my peers making me realize that i can make it without having fears.
A job equals money
Ain't it funny?
But there goes your time
An asset most prime.
Don't want to sit behind a desktop
When my body wants to shoo-bop
A job like the Grease greasers
Of this perception I am curious;
what motivates the human attitude?
Who is born more or less delirious,
but yet a genius life they should allude.
Their inspiration premeditated
Sometimes I think I’m wasting my time.
I sit around, just tasting my rhymes.
I’m dreaming of the day I’m televised
After coming from the bottom – a poetic surprise.
You see, one day I’m gonna be so famous
She screams without noise
She cries without tears
She sits in a world alone
Left drowning in her fears

See you are the type of girl who wants everything handed to you
You want diamond rings, foreign cars and clothes made by designers who's names you can't even pronounce
I have met the ugliest man
That ever has survived
His cheeks are sallow holes
And his hair has never thrived
Upon his fingers delicate
Sit the rings of fortune and fame
Slowly the years of my life go
and I sit here with nothing to show.
I look up at the beautiful sky,
not really caring whether I live or die.
Some things just can’t be described.
Your porcelain keys
and golden strings
come natural as
the blue jay sings
You’re going places
I can tell
You’ll leave me here
It’s just as well
But if you end up
in a place
i've heard that fame isn't everything
but i want it all
i will admit i'm shallow
completely devoted to aesthetics
cold as ice and hedonistic too
is it so wrong to live in pursuit of pleasure?
All the talent in the world won’t save you if you are ugly!
You try to have confidence
But the moment you stand, you are beaten!
You aren’t loved!
You aren’t worthy!
