The houses around me Are filled with people who panic They hear the noise and the static And then we all become frantic We hear the omens and legends We’re praising gold and our pleasures We’re looking over our shoulders Pretend we got it together Draw the blinds Check under your bed Hide your gold And hold your breath Feel the ghost In your chest Check your pulse You’re scared to death Para paranoia You know what’s coming for ya Venom in your blood And there’s no one here to warn ya Para paranoia You’ve been here before Ya can lock up all your doors But there’s a phantom in your foyer Para paranoia Para paranoia Para paranoia Controlled by the tension That’s taking all our attention To busy with expectations We’re losing all our convictions Draw the blinds Check under your bed Hide your gold And hold your breath Feel the ghost In your chest Check your pulse You’re scared to death Para paranoia You know what’s coming for ya Venom in your blood And there’s no one here to warn ya Para paranoia You’ve been here before Ya can lock up all your doors But there’s a phantom in your foyer Para paranoia Para paranoia Para paranoia Draw the blinds Check under your bed Hide your gold And hold your breath Feel the ghost In your chest Check your pulse You’re scared to death Para paranoia You know what’s coming for ya Venom in your blood And there’s no one here to warn ya Para paranoia You’ve been here before Ya can lock up all your doors But there’s a phantom in your foyer Para paranoia You know what’s coming for ya Venom in your blood And there’s no one here to warn ya Para paranoia You’ve been here before Ya can lock up all your doors But there’s a phantom in your foyer Para paranoia
My 2 Cents- I asked my daughter for a song for the week, and this was her suggestion. It is a fairly upbeat tune. I like the way the lyrics go. It is not a song I would normally go for admittedly. Still it is not a bad song in all.
What happens when the littlest princess in the land of Nod gets lost? A story of friendship, adventure, and surviving. This is a second edition release. Help us celebrate the release of Patricia Harris’s Bedtime Tales The Princess Lost. The images are sharpened and the layout cleaned up to give the reader a better book.
Something we’ve been excited to see with this second anthology is the mixture of familiar faces, along with fresh new voices. Last week, we announced another familiar face in the CCP world,Katheryn Schwarz.
This week is our last first-time CCP contributor, although we were fortunate enough to help him edit his amazing fantasy tale, Princess Olive, in 2019. Jonathan Degler has been a friend and mentor in our writing endeavors, and we’re elated to be able to include a story from him in our upcoming second anthology.
Welcome my lovelies! It has been a minute since I have done this. Today is Chai for me, what are you drinking?
I feel ashamed that I have been slow to update the tea party, but I try and save them for times when I have news to pass on to you.
Upcoming in March: Serena has an anthology she will be in – will post a link as soon as I have it along with a release date. Bedtime tales : The Princess Lost will be re-releasing March 1st. The images are cleaned up and the layout is so much prettier. Fae Corps will be releasing Tullawalla by Ivor Steven My birthday is on the 13th. I usually try to do that week ahead and schedule. I don’t always manage it.
Upcoming in General: I am working on a pad(Poem a day) challenge for Fae Corps Blog for April. Serena has Decided to do a poetry chapbook. I designed her a cover….
I finished writing a early Chapter book Titled Afraid of Shoe Mountain. Serena is back to working on Madness and Truth. She tells me it is coming along nicely. Fae Corps is working on compiling and polishing Faery Playgrounds for a early May release. I have several art pieces in it and Serena has a story. Lily M. Snow is working on a kid’s book series that will include my art – Lily Doodles and the Ethereal Sparkles. I have been drawing the bad guys(the Blahs, The Closet monsters, the monsters under the bed, and the other things that frighten Children) (I am having so much fun!) Cyndi and I have been discussing doing an online store for our crafts and art. More information as I have it.
Well, I think that is everything. Tell me, What do you have coming in the next couple of months?
Lyrics: I let myself fall into a lie I let my walls come down I let myself smile and feel alive I let my walls come down No matter how I try I don’t know why You push so far away You wrapped your hands tight around my heart And squeezed it full of pain With this knife I’ll cut out the part of me The part that cares for you With this knife I’ll cut out the heart of me The heart that cares for you I can’t believe the way you took me down I never saw the pain Coming in a million broken miles Like poison in my veins With this knife I’ll cut out the part of me The part that cares for you With this knife I’ll cut out the heart of me The heart that cares for you The hate and the fear The nightmares that wake me up In the tears The nightmares and (the hate)…
My 2 Cents: This song gets a bad rap I think. so many see it as emo. It is expressive and poetic. It feels like a song that I can relate to. sometimes that idea of taking a knife and cutting out the heart that wants to hang onto a toxic love…is strong.
My girl Cyndi has taken a indeterminate break due to health from Coffee House Writers. And Tish apparently did not post this week…So I found a couple of other posts that looked interesting by other friends. I like sharing three of us.
