Anew

With every new day
a new breath will come

With every new breath
a new setting sun

With every new beam
each ray of sunlight

A new stroke of luck
a new chance at life

Coaster Writings

Coaster Writings

By: M. MacMinn


Still taken in by mysterious skinny legs
by soft smiles and curious eyes
Still taken in, taken in
playful, young, reckless, unashamed
shy, insecure, I could crush you, if you let me
if we set me loose

Disposable party beats
trying to enrich when I should be superficial
When does over critical soul come into fashion
what creates these creatures
all living in a dream
denying reality is all to easy
in the consumption

Blessing, curse, paying do's, but still in debt

throwing soul when I should be vibrating

No longer matters 

where I go and what I do

now is all that is important

not how many stars I've crossed along the way

Where I've been

she slows down

To The Moon (song lyrics)

To The Moon

By: M. MacMinn

Song lyrics for "To The Moon" off the ep Song Warrior, sex party, dragon ride, Salvation (available on itunes)

She said she wanted to go to the moon,

It just looked so close so real in it's loom

She said it just didn't look that far away,

It's so bright we could touch it, it's just right there she'd say

I looked to the sky and I thought she was right,

It was heavy upon us, like god's eyes at night

And it could see through the bullshit, and the tension and the smoke

It could read us from within and know our topic was a joke.

Just a shadow of safety for what is cooking beneath,

It's just a shelter from the unknown, a shield for the the weak.

But we're all weak aren't we, though I know you'll try to deny,

With a twist of your heart I could shake you to a sigh

Fantasy has a way, of making me look deep inside,

So focused on myself, I know not where I reside

Just the victim of the present and the lesson of the week 

Is knowing, I do not know myself, and I will never hear you speak

Still the moment comes and I latch on

So invested in the dream that I cannot see it's wrong.

Maybe I'm walking the right path, and just got distracted by the 

wrong tree, to open to the possibility that I found the one for me

Stop I tell myself to focus more, I'm just sitting on the foot stoop,

I'm right outside my door.

And all that I see is empty, all that I see is not right,

all that I see is darkness, brooding here at night

Fantasy has a way, of making me look deep inside,

So focused on myself, I know not where I reside

Just the victim of the present and the lesson of the week 

Is knowing, I do not know myself, and I will never hear you speak

Well I know not what I am saying,

Or the message I am trying to convey,

I'm just dreaming in the open

I'm just inviting you to play

Fantasy has a way, of making me look deep inside,

So focused on myself, I know not where I reside

Just the victim of the present and the lesson of the week 

Is knowing, I do not know myself, and I will never hear you speak

Well you said you wanted to go to the moon, 

I just wish I could take you, just wish I could take you real soon.
