last
if I ran into the dark
waiting for the light to come
I would still believe
I miss it like it was yesterday
maybe that's why I don't feel so far away
I know the best has come and gone
still I fool myself that I can return
maybe I'm living euphoria
didn't think it would be this dull
when I said all that needs to be said
is it worth repeating?
they try to come for my really good time
they try to ruin my peace of mind
I haven't reached my full potential
they'll love me when I'm dead
what is bullshit for 400$? ...

Me Again
trying to keep up my hopes
doing it one foot in front of the other
I have problems that are hard to admit
life can be such a struggle
there's people I love that need me
more often than not I fake a smile
I'm stuck, but won't give up
starting to see things more clearly
no one will fight for you
can't help but feel disappointed
I'm a little bit wiser
and a little bit older
I know I haven't been around
guess I should expect the cold shoulder
sometimes I don't know what's killing me
empty inside...
doing it one foot in front of the other

and a little bit older

Goodbye Humanity
I think we all might
be a little dead inside
goodbye humanity
there was a time
I was happy
with the world around me
that smile faded
like a flicker fame
I try to still believe in society
but the more I try
the more bullshit I see
they say no one wants to work anymore
well I guess that might be true
but you pay and pay into a corrupt system
then have fuckers like Joe Manchin
saying how the poor will misuse taxes
all while screaming this from his yacht
the hypocrisy probably would be funny
if it wasn't so...
be a little dead inside
goodbye humanity
there was a time
I was happy
with the world around me
that smile faded
like a flicker fame
I try to still believe in society
but the more I try
the more bullshit I see

well I guess that might be true
but you pay and pay into a corrupt system
then have fuckers like Joe Manchin
saying how the poor will misuse taxes
all while screaming this from his yacht

It Weighs Heavy
whether I go to heaven or hell
one thing's for sure, imma burn
so I better learn to stop stressing
live life for those that lost their paradise
but it gets hard to see horror stories
watching from afare like some movie
playing out live
prime time 24/7
wishing I could do more
but my body in the earth won't change a thing
a few donations and standing ovations
seem a bit condescending
change requires life
we want world peace
but too afraid to die
don't you know it takes blood
to fill up that gas tank ...

Melatonin
I used to dream a rockstar dream
then I realized it wasn't for me
so I started writing poetry
gave me a bit of that feeling
looking back at my life
I had a lot of wonderful moments
like when I first met my wife
we lived apart but made it work
when I finally held her
I promised to never let go
oh melatonin
send me a dream
make it the best I've ever seen
of all the great moments in my life
come rushing back at one time
playing old games on my snes
making foods that my mom used to make
pretending...

Go f**k Yourself Putin!!! (Sunflower)
get the fuck out right now!
I said get the fuck out right now!!
you're a lonely little prick
with a little prick
that's destined for hell
what's the matter?
daddy didn't love you?
was mommy a whore?
you have trust issues
now you take it out on the world
that's too bad
no one will ever understand
only yes men
and enslaved people do your bidding
but you will never know true riches
no friendships or misses
torn apart by your own greed
has you eating alone at a very long table
the devil is eagerly awaiting ...

Devil
sometimes I feel the fire is dead
than I find someone talking shit
it ignites my core
reawakening the rebel in me
got my new shades on
think I might fly closer to the sun
don't think if you try me
I won't return to my former glory
come at me, I'm a wolf
fangs out, ready to pounce
this world will kick you down
a fact I know much about
so I choose to fight
every false accusation
a shpening of the knife
for the next confrontation
I have no sympathy or mercy
calling me a devil
like I give a shit ...
than I find someone talking shit

reawakening the rebel in me

Donald Trump never was president
just a faild reality TV star
there was no insurrection
because we're all grown ups
Bernie Sanders was elected
and everyone accepted the results
we now have universal healthcare
and big business pays their fair share
all the liars and cheats
have been shamed out of Washington
and best of all
we're all flying in cars!
no one wears mask
because we believe in science
so Covid was easily combated
grandma and grandpa are still alive
Sarah Palin went into porn ...

Yesterday's Feelings
living in the shadow of my youth
I once felt like I could go forever
but my eyelids got heavy
and my heart went hollow
filled my mind
with resentment and sorrow
not knowing if I'd ever be ok
still waiting for the answer
searching for it in my past
till then I just keep telling myself...
I'm not dead
I'm just sleeping
no need to worry
I'm still breathing
one day I'll wake up from this dream
standing back on my own two feet
stronger than yesterday
I drew the line
gave up on...

Men Aren’t All the Same
I’m obsessed with your curves
call me the luckiest man on earth
but that isn’t why I love you
it’s when you lay your head on my chest
late night while we’re in bed
I promise, cross my heart & hope to die
I’ll never leave your side
so let them say
whatever they want to say
I say it isn’t their business anyway
tell your mom, tell all your friends
men aren’t all the same
babe, just take my hand
we’ll drive across this mystic land
leaving behind only a note
saying don’t bother finding us
we can hit...

InTeRnAlLy
I have searched for reasoning
like running in a maze
the heartache always reminds me
these worries will come hurrying into my mind
like a fire, the emotions ignite,
singe, and burn me from the inside
I spin round and around
on this merry go round
the ways of the world crashing down on me
can I scream at the top of my lungs?
this is all fucking WrOnG!!!
and write down all the crap that keeps
hurting me...
this is my disease, the ink it bleeds
InTeRnAlLy!!
i'm fearful that I'll become lonely ...
