Salute
I raise my glass in a silent salute
For the hardships I’ve gone through, and the achievements I’ve earned
It leaves a bittersweet blanket over my tongue
Yet I down the drink, and set the glass on the table
Regardless of its content, I’ll quench my thirst.
For the hardships I’ve gone through, and the achievements I’ve earned

Want More
The ocean waves keep crashing on the shore
I’ve been told to accept less, but I want more
The moonlight is the only guide that I need; a steady comfort to protect me when I bleed
I write my own destiny; this is what I swore.
Love hurts, but loneliness kills
My goal has been accomplished with the blood that I’ve spilt.
Come and push me into the water; let it ooze in my pores
Even when my lips say “stop”, I keep on wanting more
I’m told that I ask too much, that I should accept what I have
I don’t expect empty souls to ever understand. ...

Pet Peeve
Dontcha wanna know my pet peeve?
Use it to get back at me
Irritate me just right; ferment my blood into aged wine
Dontcha wanna know what are my dreams?
Burn them all up right at the seams
Hijacking my sight; playing dirty games in my mind.
Use it to get back at me

Hijacking my sight; playing dirty games in my mind.

Liquid Fire
Liquid fire flows through my veins
A passion ignited my dead heart
The internal drum pulsating across my body
A living canvas painting out my life story
With my lifeblood that I willingly sacrifice
To offer to the stars above.

Queen of my Heart
Blessed are the flowers that bloom in your hair
Fed by the warmness from your heart full of care
The moonlight beams down, and your soul shines
The stars are twinkling, and I know this is a sign.
An otherworldly gift has been presented to me
A beautiful expression of heavenly art
This precious gift has set my soul free
A Princess; the Queen of my heart.
Fed by the warmness from your heart full of care

Stand Up
I’m sick of this bullshit that most people use as fuel
I’d rather be called crazy than played as a fool
What wouldn’t I give if it meant freedom?
Most people wouldn’t walk this path, but I’ve got my reasons.
Stand up and feel the fire
Reach out to ignite my heart’s desires
An organ I once thought dead and cold
Now I watch the events unfold.
Stand up; get my ass into gear
I’ll face life head-on and vanquish all my fears
I value actions over words
The unspoken language that can’t be heard.

Bored
I’m so fricken bored; I’m losing my mind
I should go smoke a joint to reach that high
Stop the intrusive thoughts that make me want to die
Yet I’ll be bored again once I get off this ride.

To Love You Again
Broken promises and lost dreams
This dead relationship that once was so sweet
Who I was then and who I am now
Have learned to reconcile as much as my heart allowed.
The past is the past; the future has yet to come
I’m feeling once again when I used to be numb
My heart, my life, my soul
The shattered pieces of me have become whole.
Hush child, it’s okay to cry
You’ve been strong for so long, and you’ll continue to soar high
Love hurts, but that’s part of the journey
Some people are meant to be left in a memory.
If I...

The Dragon's War
Come seek your blessing in the purified water
Don your armour for war is upon us
Embrace the true gift and wisdom of the Father
For we’re off to battle against the absence of love.
An eternal conflict that’ll end in victory
For the holy forces of divinity
And we shall liberate his chosen children
By granting them the true vision.
The fallen ones will curse and cry
A symphony of yelps, howls and roars
They’re damned to hell though they wish to fly
We fight the dragon’s war.

Relinquish
Faith in myself
Is the only substance keeping me going in this waking hell
Held in a divine embrace
The world smudges into a blur as I wonder at my own pace.
I set off into the darkness to cast the divine light
I rose up from the ashes to continue the fight
Hazy dreams are all that remain
I no longer have the willpower to play this mind game.
Come and find me in your memories
I gave you life every time I’d bleed
My flesh and soul were offered willingly
Now you’re left with ashes and lost dreams.

Inner Child
Life goes by yet part of me stays the same
I guard close to me the innocence that still remains
I often question what’s this worth, when I’ve experienced so much hurt
There’s a beauty to the soul when it overcomes the pain.
I’ve grown into my whole self under the guidance of my mother
There’s no confusion with me; I always show my true colours
It’s all fine and dandy, but I want to be really happy
Not just plaster a smile for the sake of pleasing others.
Take the pieces of your heart
Mix and match ‘till you find your counterpart ...

Bonds
Late-night conversations and genuine heart-to-hearts
Left me feeling closer even though we were far apart
I yearn for authentic community support
Some bonds will last a lifetime whereas others are cut short.
Whether it’s a friendship or something more
This built-up affection seeps through my pores
I’ve got no time nor interest for superficiality
I don’t ask for perfection, merely humanity.
It’s left a touch on me, a spiritual imprint
This impression affects me far more than I’d like to admit
