POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
The only the thing I ever need is you standing right next to me The world could fall apart, you own my lonely heart The only the thing I ever need is you smiling right back at me The world could fall apart, you own my lonely heart
Kill the Boss *Re*
Mistake our hearts for stepping stones
They live the life you’ll never know
Hook you up to plastic tubes, to suck the life right out of you
No thanks, no hello, no good fucking bye
They rather sit and watch you die
And when you’re done they give a nod to let you know they’re superior
But there’s a world outside of here, where the working class has been for years,
plotting to take back what’s rightful ours
We’re rising up to kill the boss!!
So boom, boom work it off, work it off
Take the mop, clean it up
Walk it off, sweep it up ...
They live the life you’ll never know
Hook you up to plastic tubes, to suck the life right out of you
No thanks, no hello, no good fucking bye

And when you’re done they give a nod to let you know they’re superior
But there’s a world outside of here, where the working class has been for years,
plotting to take back what’s rightful ours
We’re rising up to kill the boss!!
So boom, boom work it off, work it off
Take the mop, clean it up

Hostage of War

I don’t even fucking care
I just want to fucking die
Treat me like I’m less than dirt
Stab out my fucking eyes
Tired of seeing corpses everywhere
Hating more than any man ever did
Not wanting to be your victim
Standing up to get knocked down
Praying for a better life
But that day will never come
This night last forever
The pain and scars are proof of that
(Hook)
I can’t do this anymore
Can’t stand being tortured
I’ll sock you in your fucking face
So make me drink your gasoline
Then shoot!
I won’t fear...

Reflective Spirits (Feat. Rose)
Wondrous infatuation lured me
A fling flaring out as soon as it started
Temptations grip has unclenched
Now I set my sights on my true vision
An angel’s heart that I've always held
Her voice of sweet serenity comforts me
Opening my being to let her awaken,
An intense love from lost recollection
Be him the one that makes ashes of quarrelsome thought,
quietening the questioning voices, raising the temperature
peaking
flushed
breathless
tempestuous be the scene playing out that creates stand up
applause within my...

Bleed
Hear me! all I need is for you to read me
Open me up and build me
Some parts are shattered pieces
Waiting to be thrown away
And somehow it doesn’t matter
That I let everyone step on me
It’s like what should I do?
When I lost what was special
Worked so hard
Just to lose what I gained
I feel so used
Downright pathetic
And all I’m waiting for
Is one more word
To let me decide my fate
So are you sorry?
Will you admit that you were wrong?
Would you even care at all?
Still I have those that...

Start my life
I step back to reflect on my life
To only see loneliness and awkwardness
Running thoughts go through my mind
Of hopeless feelings regaining control of my body
Hurting always hurting till I go hunting
For those that don’t see me
So foolish to ignore the danger
It’s like they were begging me to leave
(Hook)
Gray turns to dark
Darkest and you drown in the puddle
Choking on what you want
Realizing what you get will never be good enough
Tell me how to be me without disappointing everybody
Howling at the moon...

When we were animals
You said life could be so perfect
when we were animals
Like children in the sand, we didn’t know what we had
and life was not as miserable
So tell me how to look you in the eyes, knowing you’ve been consumed by this lie
Don’t tell me I’m living in the past
You secretly want to be there too
Sometimes it’s hard telling you the truth
because you don’t listen to a god damn thing I say
What’s the point in fighting anyway?
You put me down once again
So go fuck yourself my friend
You said life could be so perfect
when we were animals
You had...

Hi Alice, I’m Mad! (Ft. 666XXX)
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
She is late for our date
Damn that Alice and her wonder
If she bails I’ll send that Cheshire Cat
To seek her out and send her back
Into my maddening grasp!
Oh honey apologies of my time
Lost did I get on my way but with you I'll spend my day
I found a dress to impress with my body I'll amaze you
Now show me how to love like no one ever knew
There you are my sweet Alice
Now come here, let me pet that bunny rabbit
So soft, furry and kind of wet?
Is that cream you spilled on her?
Why you laugh? Stop...

Lost in the Stars*
I spent so many nights
Looking up at the stars
Thinking there must be someone out there for me
Been torn from the pain of everyone talking
Throwing me aside as an outcast
Why do I feel like I’m so different?
Heartbroken every time I speak
I don’t want to be alone again
I can’t stand the hurt, I’m about to give in
Till I see the light shine in the dark
A text of sincerity
Telling me all I need to hear
A person that makes me feel wanted
No one in my life has ever done this to me
Now all I want is your touch
And if I don’t see...

Champions (ft. diamonddave75) (Re-post)
Generation strange is the place I arose from
Born with a hole in my soul and it can’t be patched up
I’m the rage in the machine of politics
The monster fighting when no one else did
So rise against all that are ignorant
And bring some friends and riot like a black parade
(Hook)
This is to those that I never knew
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa
Paying homage to the ones that got me though
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa
Helped me grow when I needed to
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa
They let the freak off the leash
And gave me the strength of the world
...
