Moonlit Shore
Walking along the train tracks
Watching as each track passes
Passing through my very soul
Like butterflies through the sky
Trees outlined by moonlight
I can see a plane in the distance
Carrying souls, they know where they go
I had no idea
No idea where I was going
Or that white flowers along the sides of the paths
Could be so beautiful in the night
Or that the rocks in the distance
Held that moonlit shore
I just wanted to get away from it all
Love letters written on the rocks
I wonder how many hearts blossomed in this place?
The...

I Can't Listen Anymore
I want to scream
Tell the world to go fuck itself
Burn everything till there's no more green
No more beauty in this world
I want to hold you down
and breathe the smoke from your heart
Take all the worlds monuments
and crumple them into a ball
and throw it into the trash
Shoot every endangered species
Blow up every useless fucking T.V.
Kill every piece of shit rapist
Mark every government official off my list
Drown the oceans and smother the skies
Blow up the moon and engulf the sun
Light the ends of every tree on fire
Like a big...

and crumple them into a ball

Shoot every endangered species
Blow up every useless fucking T.V.

Growing Up?
Remember when we were young?
Had no cares and nothing to worry about?
Just our friends and family
Outdoors and video games and anime and cartoons
Then we slowly all grew up
All except those that couldn't handle it
Or for some unforeseen circumstance didn't get to
Then we became what people call "Adults"
I don't know about you
But I still don't know what an adult is
Maybe it's when we lose our innocence
That freedom we held onto when we were young
See I lost my innocence when I was 8
When I watched my parents break up
Standing...

The Modern Revolution Handbook
The only things trapping us to this earth
Are love and want
The sun will rise whether you do or not
The guns will rise
At everyones expense
We are all poor in this sense
None of us are immune to this disease
We cling to this life for want
Not for need but greed
Where the honor of Samurai fell
Desperation and cowardice rose
There are no true warriors anymore
Any man or child can pull a trigger...
We can take our life at any moment easily
But to live it, many are too afraid
Afraid to look past all their silly wants ...
Are love and want
The sun will rise whether you do or not
The guns will rise
At everyones expense
We are all poor in this sense

We cling to this life for want

Where the honor of Samurai fell
Desperation and cowardice rose
There are no true warriors anymore
Any man or child can pull a trigger...
We can take our life at any moment easily
But to live it, many are too afraid
Afraid to look past all their silly wants ...

Eden
The pain of everyday life
Sometimes it's a struggle between happiness
and the losing battle of sorrow
No days comes without at least one care
Once concern and this concerns me
Knots my stomach into a ball
I began to see the light
I didn't run this time
But like always the window was shut
Just before I got there
My Eden to the East
Trapped to the sands of time
Long lost before my time
Ravaged face from the harsh bitter winds
I cast the first stone upon my sins
Plague the people not of my aura
Story myself into the lost history...

You Know
You know, the worlds resistance
Could fall without assistance
and cause panic in just an instance
One instance of heart racing instinct
Where man could come out of sync
Being the back seat driver as we become extinct
We link all our problems to pills over the sink
and write our fears in ink
But for that one second you blink
and that moment you think
You become the kink
The kink in the line of "peace"
and lose the lease on your life with ease
We revert to the things a child sees
Religious chants more or less pleas...

Bird's Nest
The rustling leaves sing
Birds live a life of freedom
Flowers bloom beneath

Foolish, Foolish Heart..
You know, I almost made a fool of myself again
But you look so much happier, that I just can't
Happier than I feel you could be with me
I can't offer fancy things or nice gifts
I can only offer me. My heart.
I was on the verge of saying I want you forever
To hold your hand as long as I have the strength to
To say I don't care anymore I would love you till I marry you
But I'm so stupid, so foolish, so vulnerable
I just wish the world would go easy on me
I can't help what I'm feeling
I guess I need to fight these feelings away again ...
But you look so much happier, that I just can't
Happier than I feel you could be with me
I can't offer fancy things or nice gifts
I can only offer me. My heart.
I was on the verge of saying I want you forever
To hold your hand as long as I have the strength to
To say I don't care anymore I would love you till I marry you
But I'm so stupid, so foolish, so vulnerable
I just wish the world would go easy on me
I can't help what I'm feeling
I guess I need to fight these feelings away again ...

The Eyes
Perhaps I was born this way, I barely remember childhood
But I could always see the darkness that others couldn’t
See the shadows that lurked within the shadows themselves
The demons of the modern day, riding the trains
The evil in certain people, disfiguring their faces
To dark eyes, grey skinned horrors
As a child I would often take off running from my parents
Or just run away in general, from everyone
I saw the demons on every street corner, why did I have this sight?
I saw the evil in my father’s face; saw the darkness in his heart
I used...
But I could always see the darkness that others couldn’t
See the shadows that lurked within the shadows themselves
The demons of the modern day, riding the trains
The evil in certain people, disfiguring their faces
To dark eyes, grey skinned horrors
As a child I would often take off running from my parents
Or just run away in general, from everyone
