Black Rabbit

Why do we go back to the places that cause us the most memories?
Do we do it to never forget what we were 'once apon a time'?
How much we could do, or what we could've been?
Where would we be now?
...

I have given this one most thought.
To learn this lesson you may not want.
But everybody knows and everybody felt
Some have seen more with the hand they've been dealt.
...

Ok, you want the truth, here it is:

The truth is that lives get lost.
Love doesn't always pay the cost.
...

Bring out your Dead! !
He yells, and they walk out carring it, the box.
The box that holds his whole world, the memories he can't share with her again.
The moments that will never be, or the time that they will never spend. Together.
...

I don't really expect to see you again.
but I do hold out every now and then.
When I walk through my front door.
It takes a moment to realize your not there any more.
...

When you look at all the great deeds we have done.
And if I do this well enough, this could be one.
I think about all the people displeased.
With all the works of art that people have released.
...

This is an easy one for me, because when I grew up, (someday I'll grow up) I wanted to live in the time of cowboys and indians. I wanted to be a gun-slinger really bad. Pulling my twin shooters, taking down people with my hot steel and not caring who they were.
When I was young I could see myself, with my spurs and my horse, and my cowboy boots, and hat. Riding out onto the plains. Only stopping to bunk for the night. Living under the big sky and doing what I want, when I want, with who I want.
Yeah, that would be the life.... I could see it all.
...

Weather or not is not the question it use to be.
But because its in the end that we never ask.
These things that we need to know.
All things that we wish we did.
...

What I do, where I go.
What I think, I don't know.
I try to do right, never wrong.
Bad things may happen but life goes on.
...

Verse 1
I know heavens looking down
I can feel spirits all around
I wonder if there happy with me.
...

Into the dark hole I will go.
To the place that the light will not see me.
So you won't have to look at my face and see shame.
I've done it before, I can do it again.
...

Have you ever had?
Have you ever heard a story, or read a story and then couldn't remember it later?
Have you ever had a dream that you lived so vividly and then couldn't remember later in the day?
Ever had a life that you couldn't get back.
...

The sun goes up and the sun goes down.
All the little things you can find lying around.
On this great big, little place we call earth.
All the dreams that die to all the dreams we give birth.
...

Going out on the town tonight.
Looking for some fun and maybe a fight.
Doing only half of what I should.
The other half doing what I would.
...

Why can't this would be right?
Why must we argue and fight?
Why can't we be happy today?
Why must we +bleep+ when things don't go our way.
...

Sometimes when people go
They would like to know,
if they will see the heavenly sights.
Tonight I won't have to wait
...

The old folks sitting in their homes.
Sitting, watching nothing with nowhere to roam.
Wondering how things came to this.
Wondering about the things they miss.
...

We would circle around the floor like angels.
You always looked like one to me.
Fast or slow it didn't matter at all.
We could keep the time well.
...

Yes this is a classic
once again
done to death
'people are stupid' poem.
...

There are so many people who can say alot.
About all the things they've done
and all the stuff they got.
...
