It Was Never Better

It Was Never Better

Times long gone are better forgotten

Those long encumbered woes

Stales smells and dead horses

And pretty maids all in a row

Bowers of women who never dance

Waiting for men to pick them

Hoping for a match to further their houses

And children to be the next victim

On and on the cycle goes

Never ceasing never halting

When will right the world?

When will stop this faulting?

Women everywhere be proud of who you are

Stand, be brave and bold

One day you will be counted

Make sure you break the mold

More Perfect Union

I can never be the better person

Remember that, love

When you are in your cups

In your grey hair

Hating me

As men grow to hate their wives

Time can’t stand

Something to last

Longer than it

Heaven forbade it

This more perfect union

A joining of souls

Better left asunder

Beyond The Rainbow's End

‘Cause it’s time to stop running

I’ll just stand my ground

These circles I’m spinning in

Make me lose what I’ve found

Without my balance

I’ll just keep losing my way

My numerous talents

Get brushed simply away

A steady hand reaches out

The frantic spinning stops

My balance is restored now

The right side is back on top

Problems cease to exist now

My journey is at an end

Time’s rightful march continue on

Beyond the rainbow’s bend
