Much Ado about You
(A.Ruffcorn)
random thoughts flash through my head
of all the things I could've said
and the love I took for granted
jaded fears hide in my heart
they were there from the very start
expressed through this so called art
bitter tears flow from my eyes
generated by a darkened sky
I've got wings but I forgot to fly
the best part of my life is now through
but not without much ado about you
the best part is now through
many thanks to you
the best part is now through
with much ado about you
rancid blood courses through my veins
the cause and effect of all your pains
the moon of our love starts to wane
fog like a helmet clouds my sight
I hope we can make it for one more night
if we can it'll be alright, it'll be alright
repeating redundancy jinxes my curse
my heart throbs, as if it might burst
I'm in last, where I once was first
the best part of my life is now through
but not without much ado about you
the best part is now through
many thanks to you
the best part is now through
with much ado about you

All to Myself
(A.Ruffcorn)
when I first met you, I thought you'd be my queen
another highschool crush, another distorted dream
I tried to get attention, and apparently it worked
now I can't get rid of you, I feel like such a jerk
I see you wanna see me, and not just with your eyes
I could say I want you to, but it would all be lies
I knock your picture off my shelf
and raise a glass up to your health
I need some time all to myself
I need some time all to myself
you come on so strong, it's hard to self control
now it seems I've won the day, but dug a deeper hole
can you understand, the thrill is at its end
as you sit and stare at me, my feelings fail the trend
at first you're all I wanted, for my very own
now I see there's more to life and I want to be alone
I knock your picture off my shelf
and raise a glass up to your health
I need some time all to myself
I need some time all to myself
dot your T's and cross your I's
'cause I'm here to say goodbye
do your best, defeat your tears
you know I hate to see you cry

Brigitte
(A.Ruffcorn)
he's in the way, but just for today
it won't be long, 'til he does you wrong
he's in the way, another cliche
he's not the one, look at me
what would you do
if I leaned close
what would ensue
if we were left alone
I hope to kiss
before you're gone
wake up beside
see you at dawn
he's in the way, but just for today
it won't be long, 'til he does you wrong
he's in the way, another cliche
he's not the one, look at me
if I touch your lips
it'll only be worse
kiss me now
paradoxical curse
ghosts of your smiles
echo in my eyes
I'll be sad to see you go
this always happens, goodbye

London Is Still Angry
(A.Ruffcorn)
her initials are L-something-D
I like her and she likes me
we just met the other night
I'm not sure, but it feels alright
you and me at 203
drinking wine at Claire's party
the fire alarm it kicked us out
we both know what it's all about
you and me, we're so pretty
like a third time ecstacy
if it was all in my head
then how'd you end up in my bed, girl?
her initials are C-something-Y
I held her, told her not to cry
I'm not sure what she sees in me
all I know is she makes me happy
you and me at Sam's party
making out with everybody
you don't mind and I don't care
if all the party stops to stare
You and me, a drunken spree
swimming naked, jacuzzi
if it was all up to me
you would be my new steady girl

This Is Not Wise
(A.Ruffcorn)
you called me up, late last friday
begging me, to swing by your place
I wasn't sure, if it was a good idea
but my homies told me to have no fear
well, nothing happened, but I saw in your eyes
what you wanted, was me by your side
the people all say, this is not wise
to get back together after all of the lies
your friends are all saying you'd rather have me
it all sounds so perfect, it will never be
you called me up, the very next day
telling me when your boyfriend would be away
don't forget, to bring a raincoat
check the counter, mom left me a note
son, she said, don't be foolish
open up your old wounds, is that what you wish?
the people all say, this is not wise
to get back together after all of the lies
your friends are all saying you'd rather have me
it all sounds so perfect, it will never be
you're checking me out, with your big green eyes
it makes me want to let you back into my life
if you think that I'll make you happy
come with me, and we'll move out to Cali
start it up, all over again
we'll get new jobs and we'll make new friends
the people all say, this is not wise
to get back together after all of the lies
your friends are all saying you'd rather have me
it all sounds so perfect, it will never be

Brigitte Too
(A.Ruffcorn)
as we stand moonlit
your eyes won't sway
only tired by time
tonight's the very last day
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen days mine, and ferociously fine
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen days mine, and ferociously fine
keep looking at the time
I'm feeling so fine
it's happened once again
for the second ever time
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen days yours, few hours are ours
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen days yours, few hours are ours
your dance was here
but it's time to die
so go back to Paris
tears tear, by and by
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen days gone, a dozen day song
dream of a sky, above even time
a dozen day song, a dozen days gone

One Day Ricochet
(A.Ruffcorn)
have you ever loved a girl
with a twisted head
you only knew you loved her
once she turned up dead
this has happened to me
I tell you no lies
on a tuesday mid-morning
my girlfriend did die
this song is for her
and for her memory
for it's true without her death
our love would never be
one day ricochet
from the eastern end
my mind works in the western way
my heart starts with your end
one day ricochet
tuesday on the tongue
memoires wear thin
her song's well sung
take care, my love
our time is done
watch from above
soul on the run
peace and love now
why not before
appreciate not
what I truly adore
one day ricochet
from the eastern end
my mind works in the western way
my heart starts with your end
one day ricochet
tuesday on the tongue
memoires wear thin
her song's well sung

Splitting My Head into Pieces
(A.Ruffcorn)
my desires are splitting my head into pieces
a stolen line, a well thought thesis
a beautiful bird, my feathers ruffled
our eye contact means nothing but trouble
you were looking right at me
I could hardly believe it
I still have zero self esteem
but this is such a lovely dream
so I smile right back at you
and hope and pray that you can see through
the facade that is my face
girl, you put me in my place
my desires are splitting my head into pieces
the hour is upon us, and it is the season
never been so happy, and lived to write of it
maybe just maybe, more smiles will come of it
you kept following me around
and so my ego soars up off the ground
I still have zero self esteem
but this is such a brilliant dream
so I confess, I'm chasing you too
you look like Gwyneth Paltrow, this is true
celebrity sex is every man's dream
unhealthiness encased in gleam
my desires are splitting my head into pieces
I want you so much but without reason
by the time it takes these words to get to you
they'll mean nothing to me and even less to you

Bikini Angst
(A.Ruffcorn)
in the presence of the present
screeching heart-throbs abate me
the girl in my poster comes alive
and strikes her legs against mine
the inflection of her hips, in our convergence
the confection of her lips, vivid diversions
bikini angst, in triangles, and thin lines, down there
bikini angst, my favorite shape, covers up, down there
her skin is darker than mine down there
her skin is darker down there
in the presence of the present
reason for clarity escapes me
the girl in my poster is a trend
a trend to end all trends
it is perfection death of nocturnal virgins
it is perplexion myth of televised immersion
bikini angst, in triangles, and thin lines, down there
bikini angst, my favorite shape, covers up, down there
her skin is darker than mine down there
her skin is darker down there

Girlfriend for a Week
(A.Ruffcorn)
time tempts my mind
wish you could be mine
know the end is soon
beneath an english moon
girlfriend for one week to date
melody got going late
reincarnate as my next love
adored while I'm dead and above
fall in love with the fear
forgotten why we're here
a naked boy with dusted eyes
inferior fears reign tonight
within our bedsheet normality
a focus on impossibility
neverending blissture
she won't believe, but I'm going to miss her
futile flirtations with fate
frustrate straight to mate
tackled and told of friction
all adds up to new addiction
>back to top<
Potential
(A.Ruffcorn)
I'm failing in the time department
time to depart, for sale, set sail
terrible timing, pointless rhyming
it's happened here, begin again somehow
begin again somehow
I'm staring into the starter's pistol
come help or highwater, I stare
beware He says, last length of rope and time
end of mine, I cope somehow
I cope somehow
amble across the soaking green
filmic control over all that's seen
capture of image, but not of thought
this had meaning, or so I thought somehow
or so i thought somehow
potential potential potential potential
potential potential potential potential
words mean most, thoughts and sounds
follow the coil around the rounds
synaptic firings control this most
makes my mind feel lack in boast somehow
lack in boast somehow
an unending flash of train
throughout this winded brain
pleading perpetual dusk
then the rest can rest somehow
the rest can rest somehow
know not where it comes
abound from a genius numb
genius knows at what cost
when you win, still you've lost somehow
still you've lost somehow
still you've lost
potential potential potential potential
potential potential potential potential

Until Next Time
(A.Ruffcorn)
someday soon, you will be mine
someday soon, it'll all be fine
then you will see in me
what I see in you
and we will be in love
in a love so true
until other boys
see you, and pursue
until you leave me
I'll see you, adieu
that will be the day
that we say goodbye
that will be the day
that you see me cry
until next time
when you meet somebody new
until next time
when I meet someone like you
then you will see in me
what you once had had
jealous as you are
it will make you mad
until next time
when you meet somebody free
until next time
when you meet someone like me

The Duel
(A.Ruffcorn)
difference doesn't make much sense
since you're always smiling when
I come by, I wonder why
you stay with, though he makes you cry
where'd you go to school? oh, that place is cool
where is your boy, would he care to duel?
seems the time is right to peck a noble fight
to win the love of you, when he and you are through
put a dime into the juke, bid your boy put up his dukes
you're the music to fight to, he doesn't care like I do
I long for your embrace, so I punch him in the face
the face that hits the floor
