ONCE UPON AMERICA
© 2010 Author: Dawn Maracle
What does it mean to be an American
It seems it’s changed over night
The pledge of Allegiance to our flag
One nation under God indivisible
It’s fading out of sight
Don’t say those words we were founded on
So politically incorrect
The early light no early dawn
Divided we’ll fall I’ll bet
Angry winds volcanic ash
Nashville’s under water
I can hear the thunder and wall street crash
Nothing for our son’s and daughters
History repeats itself it seems we never learn
Just read the books upon your shelf
One more page to turn
Can you hear the cries of dying life
The Gulf now black with oil
The earth is rumbling about our sin
The West Virginia mines are caving in
See the terrorists with no love
our government ignoring God above
Jobs are scarce our money is too
Can’t even recognize this place
God bless America
And God bless you

Two People
Dawn Maracle
Two people on a rock looking down on the world they say
Two people on a rock oh what a day
Two people on a rock and the light shone down on them
Two people in love in love again
Two people were walking in paradise they say
nobody but them that day
If anyone asked it would always be this way
until a cold and snowy day
Look away Look away Look away can you look away
Look away Look away Look away sometimes you gotta look away
sometimes the story books have endings
not quite the way that we'd have planned
and when the cards have all been dealt out
sometimes you need another hand
Look away Look away Look away can you look away
Look away Look away Look away sometimes you gotta look away
Snow white has played a larger part now
and Cinderella had to leave the ball
cause virgin white took Charming's head and heart now
and golden coaches are just pumpkins after all
Look away Look away Look away can you look away
Look away Look away Look away sometimes you gotta look away
Two people on a rock looking down on the world they say
Two people on a rock oh what a day
Two people on a rock and the light shone down on them
Two people in love in love again
Two people in love and they walk away
EVERYBODY
Dawn Maracle
Everybody wants to take what you've got
Everybody wants to take what you've earned
Everybody wants to see you get hurt
Everybody wants to see you go down and burn
Everybody out there wants to fraud and scam
tell you that they'll take you to the promised land
lie and cheat you out of your hard earned cash
just to fill their pockets in a hurried flash now
Bridge
Don't you believe it when they tellin' you
they've got the answer that your lookin' for
another easy way to rob you blind it's cool
another fool another dollar more
Chorus
Na na na na it's a shame
na na na na now it's not the same
na na na na well it's upside down
what's right is wrong
and it's turned around
what's right is wrong and it's turned around aaaaaaaah
Everybody wants to see you suffer
Everybody wants to hurt another
Everybody wants to be the one who
rises to the top wearing their disguises now
Someone had a heart they let them slide
Someone told them that there were no more free rides
I couldn't believe when I heard her say
someone did something nice it's wrong that way
Bridge
Don't you believe it when they tellin' you
they've got the answer that your lookin' for
another easy way to rob you blind it's cool
another fool another dollar more
Chorus
Na na na na it's a shame
na na na na now it's not the same
na na na na well it's upside down
what's right is wrong and it's turned around
what's right is wrong and it's turned around
what's right is wrong and it's turned around aaaaaaaah

TRUSTING YOU
Dawn Maracle
Too many nights have I waited for you
to come to me oh Lord
How many times have I cried in the night
waiting for your light
To come to me oh Lord
Chorus
And when I come to the end of my rope
That's when it happens and you give me hope
To go on to go on trusting you you
God how I've tried to show I can be strong
And you know I have
I have had faith and believed what I asked
Has been done by you
Chorus
And when I come to the end of my rope
That's when it happens and you give me hope
To go on to go on trusting you
Whistle - Solo
You have put desires into my heart
Before time it's true
and I must patiently wait for your time
I believe in you
Chorus
And when I come to the end of my rope
That's when it happens and you give me hope
To go on to go on
To go on to go on loving you you
Trusting you trusting you trusting you trusting you trusting you
Trusting you trusting you trusting you trusting you trusting you
GOOD LUCK BAD LUCK
Dawn Maracle
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
I am told it's only what you choose
You control your life your destiny
But I think that they are blind and do not see
Chorus
Some have blind luck and some do not (ooh no no )
some get it all without a thought ( you know they do you know they do now now)
Still others struggle all their lives they work so hard
Knocked down each time that they try
Who you are you know just where you stand
Hard or not some kill some lend a hand
Deep inside a force is telling you
Good luck bad luck tells you just how you will choose
Chorus
Some have blind luck and some do not (ooh no no )
some get it all without a thought ( you know they do you know they do now now)
Still others struggle all their lives they work so hard
Knocked down each time that they try
Scat Instrumental
Too many times some may want out
While others flash their cash all about
You can never tell who may do what
Insane is sane and sane acts like a nut
Chorus
Some have blind luck and some do not (ooh no no )
some get it all without a thought ( you know they do you know they do now now)
Still others struggle all their lives they work so hard
Knocked down each time that they try
Good luck bad luck Good luck bad luck Good luck bad luck
Good luck bad luck Good luck bad luck Good luck bad luck .....................

CAN YOU RELATE TO ME
Dawn Maracle
As I sit here and I wait for you

I gives me reason to review

About old loves and about the new

PRESSURE
Dawn Maracle
Right now I wish you could stand in my shoes

I don't think you even care about me anyway
That's why I keep pushin' your pressure away
Ive got pressure pressure pressure pressure

I've got pressure pressure pressure pressure
I've got it on my mind all the time
You don't want to be here with me tonight

and give me pressure pressure pressure pressure

I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS (THE BRIGHT RED BULB)
DAWN MARACLE
THERE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE
HUNG A BULB BRIGHT AND RED
A CHILDS FACE LOOKING BACK AT ME
GAZING AWE STRUCK INNOCENCE
A MEMORY NOT SOON FORGOTTEN, VIVID AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
AND WITH EACH CHRISTMAS COMES THAT BRIGHT RED BULB
HANGING HIGHER ON THE TREE UP THERE
CHORUS:
I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS AS IT WAS WHEN I WAS YOUNG
I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS AND THE BRIGHT RED BULB THAT HUNG (FROM THE TREE) I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS
THE FACE OF MY CHILD STILL IN THE BULB
I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS THAT'S THE WAY I ALWAYS WILL REMEMBER CHRISTMAS
NOW THERE ARE OTHER LITTLE ONES WHO'S FACES WILL BE SEEN
FROM THE BOTTOM OF A CHRISTMAS TREE IN A BULB BRIGHT RED (MAYBE GREEN) SO ONCE AGAIN IT HANGS LOW ON THE BOTTOM
JUST LIKE IT DID WHEN I WAS A LITTLE CHILD NOW ANOTHER LITTLE FACE INSTEAD (LOOKS IN THE BULB) WILL SING
CHORUS
SO MANY CHRISTMAS'S AGO SO MANY THAT HAVE PAST
I WONDER WILL THEIR MEMORY FADE OR BE LIKE MINE AND LAST
TO SEE THE FUTURES CHILDREN
AS THEY'RE GAZING IN A BRIGHT RED BULB
WONDERING JUST LIKE I DID WHAT WOULD THE FUTURE HOLD Back to Top
WILL THEY BE SINGING
CHORUS
GO TO HELL
Dawn Maracle
No sound coming round anymore

But me I'm doing fine
I've gotten you off my mind
I'm tellin myself

Hello baby how have you been

love letters again
Some people they come and they go
a smile on my face they don't know
the shit that you've put me through
now I can't stand to think about you

to the surface that's all that I see
now I'm wishing that you were still here
so I could kick your dumb ass into gear
ch
But me I'm doing fine (breath hahaha)
I've gotten you off my mind (breath hahaha)

love letters again
Instrumental (vocals & guitar solo)
Now you keep on telling me
aw that your coming home

Ch
But me I'm doing fine heh heh heh

love letters again
Hello baby how have you been

Hello baby
Fly Away
Dawn Maracle
I need some, some time and some space
Get out of this crazy race
Close my eyes universal ties
Ties that bind
My spirit and mind
Open wings and fly away fly away
White wolves are calling me
On a mountain top over cosmic seas
The wind is blowin' all through my hair
The wind is blowin' it's blowin' every where
Open wings and fly away fly away
Instrumental
Meditation is the key to this door
Relaxation is on a distant shore
Never come back if I could stay
I wanna come back oh everyday
Open wings and fly away fly away
Fly away fly away
outro
Suffer Me Not
Dawn Maracle
SUFFER ME NOT SUFFER ME NOT
SUFFER ME NOT LET IT GO YOU KNOW
IT'S DEAD AND GONE YOU KNOW THAT
NO ONE SHOULD HAVE SUFFERED SO LONG
DEVOURED ME STILL IN YOUR SPIDER WEB
COLD DEATH WAS ALL THAT YOU WERE FED
BURNING FIRE TRIED TO MELT THE ICE
BUT THE COLD ONLY FROZE YOUR EYES YOUR EYES YOUR EYES
ONE FINE DAY YOU'LL WAKE UP AND FIND
YOUR HEART GAVE IN JUST ONE TIME
YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE WORDS WERE SAID
NOW WERE EXISTING ONLY AS LIVING DEAD
NOW WE ARE STRANGERS
TOO LATE WE ARE STRANGERS
CAN'T CHANGE WE ARE STRANGERS
WHAT A SHAME WE ARE STRANGER

pay bills do lunch over here over there

It’s alright we’ll play music tonight
You and me in the vicinity
Frankly speaking I’ve come to know
The meaning of your words and actions
Cryptic movements a random show
A unique form of communications
Getting loud Getting quiet
What a challenge what a riot
A Sherlock Holmes mystery
The answer just came to me there within the vicinity
I’ll be in the vicinity thereof
It’s all right we’ll play our music tonight
You and me in the vicinity

Vicinity afore mentioned vicinity

THE POETRY OF DAWN MARACLE
DEDICATED TO ALL WHO HAVE INSPIRED THESE WRITINGS EVEN THIS IS INSPIRATION 12/29/98
After you have read this poetry you will have a profound understanding of who I am today and my philosophies about life, love, my Lord and Savior. Who I am now is only a temporary state and is ever changing. The worse thing that can happen to a soul is to become stagnant and closed to any growth that God would have prepared and waiting for us to reach out and take. Ask and ye shall receive. Please God let me grow. Do not hoard your god given gifts. Empty your cup to that God may fill it up again to over flowing. Then you will see the cup not only becomes full again but, it also becomes larger. God will not give us more than we can handle, be it bad or GOOD! God is my highest power and it is that power that has inspired these writings. Without God I would not have the insight into any of the subject matter within the following pages. For a greater understanding of the words within these pages I would suggest an open heart, mind, prayer and meditation about what you are about to partake. This is the True Supper That I dine on.
