Find Me
by Sotr Caf
Verse 01:
These dreams never seem to come alive
No matter how many times I plead to the sky nobody answers my cry
Put my hands in my pants and keep walking on by
I’m over asking him why how many times can I ask without a reply
Looking for a clue a reason we exist
Doomed to repeat the seasons with no reason to live
Why keep breathing the meaning eludes I’ve been meaning to shift
Take it to third fourth then fifth drive off of this cliff
Before my mind outwits my grips and loses the nerve to commit
I swerve so many times get close to the edge and then quit
Something tells me to stop if I knew what it is
I wouldn’t be doing what I did but I do I’m doomed to be this
Existence whatever this is I do not feel that I fit
Would you help me a bit I’d be the first to resist and admit
That I’m at my last wits I can’t climb out of this pit
Would you climb down sit and coexist for bit that’s it
Chorus:
I just need friend friend won’t you find me
I just need somebody somebody to like me
If you could find find where you might find me
I’ll try this time this time I’ll find me
Verse 02:
My life’s been lived still I got a long way to go
Looking for whatever it is that better men know
Sit on a bench and watch em walking like I’m watching a show
They got places to go I wonder where those places are known
I got a space of my own its a place that’s alone
No faces are shown only see the world through case of my phone
If I could own what I see on these cobblestone streets
Where throwns of the kings snuggle in between sheets
And every day and night of life is a struggleless feat
This place is complete I find no rubble in streets
I’m in trouble I stumble to keep sanity sweet
My mind bitter it flitters and flies far from the fleet
These scars tarnish and streak leave lines over marginal me
Cut to the core like apples you eat I grapple to keep
These shackles discreet if you saw what I see
These mirrors tell the truths I try to keep even from me
Verse 03:
There’s hope where’s theres a breath left and I still breath
Asking for answers aint the answer I need
On hands and these knees I crawl outta these weeds
All ever I wanted was a want that wanted to need
Every time I try to stand I buckle these knuckles bleed
Been fighting to believe in something other then the unseen
Its the self in self help that doesn’t set its self free
Nobody hears what I mean its how it feel when I scream
Nothings as real as it seems life aint real on these screens
Settle for dreams when self esteem won’t settle me
I just want a hand to help me stand you put your hands in your pockets
And protect what you can a predestrian plan keep walking
Look the other way when you damn what I do
What I am when I can’t handle what you have what I’d like to have too
But I aint asking for much just a reminder a touch
A kinder life I could clutch and kind of life no crutch

Crushed
by Sotr Caf
Verse 01:
If I could take back what I said I don’t think I would
But if I could change how you feel I wish I could
To whom I said those terrible things to
I’m in a terrible place too
I know the pain I know the panic
I know the zanic control the manic
But I don’t feel like a man if I have to ask you to hold my hand and dammit
You shouldn’t have to have a hand in it
Hope you find your place in this planet
I’m still floating in space hoping to land it
My ships sailed coping with damage
Hoping telescopes spot a landing before oxygen vanish
And if the day come and I’m gone know I tried
I gave it my all til my all expired
This soul’s been broken longer then you’ve been alive
I know you care care to share it sometime
Crushhhhed
My soul feels crushhhhhed
Crushhhhed
My soul feels crushhhhhed
Verse 02:
It feels likes its been forever maybe it has
Or maybe when time pass with no laughs it can’t go fast
Gotta tattoo to make a change
It was a man smiling a little younger
A little less violent
Reminded me of a time when
The sun would shine and I wouldn’t mind it
When I shower for a few minutes a day
I can watch the man remember his way
Forgetting what made him this hateful
If you think I hate you it aint true
I’m just pushing cuz if you get too close
The most you’d be is not what you hoped
What you had in mind or what I hoped you’d fine
You won’t catch me cryin’ cuz these eyes aint hard to hide
I’d say its been a fun but I’d be lyin’
Its easy to be alone then to be left in a line

You Don’t Know
by Sotr Caf
Chorus:
Step
Fall
Dead
I try not to care..but I can’t
I try not to share..but I ran’t
I try not to show but your hold on these lies are about to let go and know
If I could walk away from everything i’d walk away from you
If I could forget these pains that make me strange I’d be the man I knew
You don’t know what I’ve done or where I’ve been
Or what I’ve seen or what I’ve said to them
You don’t know (you don’t know) you don’t know (you don’t know)
You don’t know a fucking thing
Verse01:
I’m amazed I’m still alive
Its a haze I feel at night
Its a ways to feel alright
And this maze is still a fight
Leaving me in a state of mind of insecurity
The words used to burn to me
Now you don’t even reply when I try to turn the tables on eternity
I try to learn be what you want
But you want is nothing to do with me
Nothing to do with you and me
Nothing to do with how it used to be
I use to be important now I’m less imported
A door mat an adornment put up once and forgotten about
Until you need something important
And I can’t unlearn the synapses that fire when desire
Reacts in a blink of the eye like perspire
Its just happens with no conscious reaction
I’m constantly asking why with no response to my passion
Chorus:
Step
Fall
Dead
I try not to care..but I can’t
I try not to share..but I ran’t
I try not to show but your hold on these lies are about to let go and know
If I could walk away from everything i’d walk away from you
If I could forget these pains that make me strange I’d be the man I knew
You don’t know what I’ve done or where I’ve been
Or what I’ve seen or what I’ve said to them
You don’t know (you don’t know) you don’t know (you don’t know)
You don’t know a fucking thing
