For a friend:

Never Let Go

Verse 1
i watched from the terrace as we made love
in the coming electrical storm
you were the heavens i was the rainfall
Tonight we gave birth to a malestrom
right then and there i felt the shiver
that traveled to her at the same time
i felt her pain, i felt her horror
i breathed the mountains that she climbed
I've tasted the fruits of her crimes
The more she runs, the more i want her


Verse 2
Jackie came from L.A. suitcase in hand
she whirled the sinews of my soul
left behind used condoms on her dresser
and stockings that weren't her own
she said look at these hands , i'm not crazy
i saw charcol slits made on your her (Calling me Calling me)
Drenched in the dried tears of a wild virgin
she said "make the hurt go away" i couldn't resist

(hook)
Jaclyn my wilted flower
surviving a thousand days in the rain
memories of fathers asking you to dance naked for
dandelions and CandyCanes
making love to me in that parking lot
promiseing me you'll never stop, and cry again
Told me you were tired of living a lie
so you prayed for wings so you could fly
away and never cry again...

verse 3
just as eve was lured to the apple
you were lured to a thing called love
a false love baring a chamber of secrets
that flew away like mourning dove's
day after day the sun grew redder
the blood of loved ones spilt on her
poppies for my dear jaclyn, "Hello...."
looked out my terrace,thinking of jumping
feeling the winds vibes thumping
I begged jaclyn , please don't let go

Bridge
raped of your pride like a messiah
doomed to become an eyeless pariah
jumping into the serpents tail
even the heavens assume you'll fail
A storm will come from beneath the mire
to cool the embers of your fires
onto my ship thats guided near gale
only two lovers and a sail


Verse 4
Together we can dance on a river of why
place your burdens atop my back
cast a blind eye toward the devil's grin
let my love bring you back
cause you dying tonight would be the death of me
and my return from the cold
please do not give the rowing rivertor
his two shiny coins of gold

(hook)
Jaclyn my wilted flower
surviving a thousand days in the rain
memories of fathers asking you to dance naked for
dandelions and CandyCanes
making love to me in that parking lot
promiseing me you'll never stop, and cry again
Told me you were tired of living a lie
so you wished upon a star so you could fly
away and never cry again...

(spoken)
Wondering if jesus ever climbed a mountain
and saw sins stained on the whole worlds soul
as he is running from the jackals
stumbling upon a cross would he know?

Your writing style paints

Either way...
looking forward to your instrumental....

The Ballad of Jaclyn Turner ( Jaclyn Never Let Go Part II)

Verse 1
I followed a white rose through the sloshy banks of Tyne
from its source to the wild north sea
watching the overview of heaven and earth
Flowing blue, Yellow and emerald green

Verse 2
there laid Jaclyn naked
near the bay with peach blossom hair
eroding the middle path of heaven and earth
with her beautiful wicked stare

Verse 3
she said she knew how to make a man feel like a man
in-between a temptress and a mother
slowly unbuckling my belt
to feast upon my power

Verse 4
a head monster pursuing a jackal
on this scottish evergreen
pumping away on jaclyn turner
princess ascending to a queen

Verse 5
the horizon has turned crimson red
has the monster been fed?
passing me a metal shard for the climax
"keep pumping away baby, we'll reach heaven so fast

Ooh Ooh,
Ms Turner
Ooh Ooh
Ms Turner

Verse 6
there was the rose beside the banks of Tyne
two lovers beached in a hypnotic unwind
Dear ms. turner do not let go
Heaven is now, Let thee count the moans

(Spoken)
peach blossoms fall
behind my licks of passion
these licks of guitar
were designed in your fashion
Jaclyn Turner...

and that was the ballad of jaclyn turner...

Oh no Thompson only inspires me when it comes to my journalism works
when it comes to my writing my biggest influencers happen to be T.s Eliot , Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Prince, Sting, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchel
i use alot of imagery in my writings,
For instance Jaclyn Turner is a cross between Sting and Prince
I like it to be sexy but not vulgar, let the persons imagination wander into the catacombs of their inner sexiness

T.s Eliot , Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Prince, Sting, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchel and jounalism....

I'm liking how it all comes together in your instrumentals....
currently listening to "the ballad of jaclyn turner"
