     C                       Am
I'm leaving now and I don't know when
F                  C
I'll be coming back again
    Em                      G
To pick up where we left off
       C                      Am
And where we are to go

  C                            Am
I have a some things I need to do
      F                            C
But they have nothing to do with you
      Em                      G
But when they're done I'll be back
       C                       Am
And we can start over again

  F                  G         C   G   C
I know that we made a connection.
  F                G          C  G  C
I know it was close to perfection.
  F                   C           E7        Am
I know what we had was one of a kind.
      F                C           Dm7          G             C
But before it will work my loose ends need to be tied.

C                            Am
Unfinished business still haunts me
F                      C
So I just have to go and see
   Em                                    G
If the things in the back of my mind
C                             Am
Are just things of the past

   C                            Am
It may be wrong, and I hope I'm right
F                 C
But it's you I keep in sight
         Em                G
When thinking of the time
         C                                 Am
When I'll know exactly what to do.

     Bb            F                  C                F
Forgive me for running when we were so close.
     Bb            F               C               F
Forgive me for leaving you alone.
Bb        F             C            F
While I take off to chase my ghosts.
   C                            Fmaj7
It just may take some time.
   C                            Fmaj7
It just may take some time.

     Bb             F           C           F
I'm Looking for answers you cant provide
     Bb             F           C           F
I'm Looking for answers you cant provide
Bb          F              C                     F
But when I find them you'll be by my side
  C            Fmaj7
Again.
  C            Fmaj7
Again

       C                    Am
So I ask you to not give up hope
       F                         C
That someday I will be able to cope
              Em                      G
With the demons inside my head
       C                  Am
And face the given truth.

      C                      Am
But I know that your belief in fate
       F                    C
Will give you the all strength to wait
           Em        G
For my final resolution
    C                        Am
To point right back to you

  F                  G         C   G   C
I know that we made a connection.
  F                G          C  G  C
I know it was close to perfection.
  F                   C           E7        Am
I know what we had was one of a kind.
      F                C           Dm7          G             C
But before it will work my loose ends need to be tied.
        F             G                        C
Don't worry, my loose ends will be tied.

It took me some time
But now I realize
I'm much better alone
Than I was in your eyes

For years I had thought
All that I wanted was you
And to get what I wanted
Seemed too good to be true

I disregarded the warnings
My brain sent to me
My heart was in charge
A blind heart, you see

So when the time came
For us to be one
My wait it was over
It was finally done.

Life it was perfect
I couldn't believe
How should I have known
It was only a reprieve

But quickly does milk sour
When left in the heat
Any passion you had
You let quicky retreat

My deep seeded devotion
For you I kept sound
I kept a glimmer of hope
You'd soon come around

How foolish was I
To put faith in you
I thought it before
Things were too good to be true

Only so much deception
Can one devoted man take
It was time to part ways
But my heart it did break

I was lied to and cheated
By the one who I trusted
Then left on my own
To feel battered and busted

It took me some time
But now I realize
I'm much better alone
Than I was in your eyes

-Mickey Mossey, November 2, 2006

Surrounded by fabric all cushy and soft,
She picks up her book and then she drifts off.
Into a world of goblins and elves,
Don't try to talk to her, she's somewhere else.

Penned by another for people to read,
It's like taking a trip, but not having to leave.
Her physical body is sitting right there,
I try to converse with her but she doesn't care.

Ignore me, oh darling, ignore me some more.
Put down your book and clean the shit off your floor.
Or maybe come closer and listen to me sing,
It's not like it's Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.

I beg for attention, just give me a sec;
I promise, oh darling, you won't regret.
I'm writing some lyrics, from my heart to you,
Do I bore you so much this is what you must do?

At least it's a book and not some silly game,
For that I give credit, because you could be playing.
Indluged in a world of electronic crack,
At least in a book, when it's done you'll be back.

Ignore me, oh darling, ignore me some more.
Put down your book and clean the shit off your floor.
Or maybe come closer and listen to me sing,
It's not like it's Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.

But for those god damned authors, to cease and desist,
Is not but a lonely man's very last wish.
More volumes and stories and books they do write
From me they take you, and for that I must spite.

This is a story of how things just are,
Only ten feet away, but I feel so far.
Ignore me oh darling, ignore me, OK?
Ignore me oh darling, I'll just sit here and play.

Ignore me, oh darling, ignore me some more.
Put down your book and clean the shit off your floor.
Or maybe come closer and listen to me sing,
It's not like it's Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.

Forgive me, oh darling, for writing this song,
Because how things are, I don't think it's wrong.
To put down my feelings about what you do,
But no matter what I say, I still love you.

Yellow Post-It's taste the best to me,
I can not tell you why.
It could be their unique shade,
Or their number seven dye.

I know that eating little bits,
Of paper isn't good.
And I would stop chewing them,
Only if I could.

Is it better than smoking cigarettes?
Oh wait, I do that too.
I am going to die real young,
What is a man to do?

So I guess I'll keep on doing it,
To this office supply.
And 3M will surely stay in business,
Until the day I die.
