Poet Introduction
Been writing songs since I was nine. I can't be the judge of when they started being good, but I have a massive backlog that I'm going to be dumping here. Possibly all of them, even though a lot are rather embarrassing.

Exiled
This was my home.
And all I ever wanted.
Was to protect my family.
Now they are gone.
And I am haunted.
By this insanity.
Lost to the fire.
And broken glass.
Oh, my humanity.
I have no desire.
Let my troubles pass.
To waltz in eternity.
Oh, exiled.
Onto the fringe of this city.
Oh, exiled.
I barely exist, but still I'm free.
Cold wind whips.
Around my face.
Chilling my skin.
Parting my lips.
This freezing place.
Seeping within.
Ghosts of the...

Daughters Of Utopia
Anger!
Hunger!
Rage and bloodlust for death.
Danger!
Thunder!
Radical furies ahead.
Power!
Devour!
Storming with darkness inside.
Hours!
I scour!
This land in search of a fight.
Cosmic wars, celestial bodies.
Crashing into the sky.
All for one, they're coming for me.
All lined up to die.
This is the end of Avalon.
The war for Megiddo's plains.
This is the fall of Albion.
The march to Heaven's gates.
Rise!
Fly!
You voices of Inferno.
Cry! ...
Hunger!
Rage and bloodlust for death.

League Of Rogues
Take the powers of the maiden.
From the goddess of revival.
Return from the dead.
Fire synapses in your head.
Read from Lovecraft and the Bible.
The portrait's of you now instead.
Read into the meaning.
Show us direction.
And grow to unreasonable size.
Protect us and guide us.
You will provide for us.
You with the inhuman eyes.
The league of rogues wanders time and space.
Searching for where they might call home.
The league of rogues, living out of place.
They belong nowhere that is known. ...

The Shame
It's time to step on the stage.
In front of everybody you hate.
Before they glare you down and throw you out.
You have two and a half minutes to change their minds.
This is the end of your day.
The light won't shine in your face.
You are on your own, but I hope you know.
That I'm here, cheering you on, if only on the inside.
You can hear the crowd waiting for you.
You know what you came here to do.
I can tell you have pain running through.
But you want to run straight and true.
I'm sorry.
I can't let you do...
In front of everybody you hate.
Before they glare you down and throw you out.
You have two and a half minutes to change their minds.
This is the end of your day.
The light won't shine in your face.
You are on your own, but I hope you know.
That I'm here, cheering you on, if only on the inside.
You can hear the crowd waiting for you.
You know what you came here to do.
I can tell you have pain running through.
But you want to run straight and true.
I'm sorry.
I can't let you do...

Fathom This
Silent silver specks of snow falling to the ground.
Among an endless empty battlefield, spent casings all around.
Testaments to murder and to death, lay at rest now.
Never to show life again as we pass through a ghost town.
Sprawling grand metropolis, futuristic ruins lie.
Telling tales in foreign words of times long gone by.
Destination somewhere, maybe up, we can't decide.
Where inside this dying world, a future might we find.
Fathom this.
Skeletal bombers.
Thousand years old.
Rusted out tanks.
Tribute to a dead world. ...

Nothing For All
Mister confusion.
Give me illusions.
I can't wait to use them again.
Master intrusion.
Built by delusions.
You and I are one and the same.
From me to the future.
A planetary sustenance.
I will return again.
And call upon the waves.
Just nothing for all who look too deep into their minds.
It's nothing, and that is all that you will ever find.
Just nothing for all you've done, no pay, no fine.
It's nothing, I knew it all and I don't mind.
Ghastly infusion.
List of collusion.
It makes no...
Give me illusions.
I can't wait to use them again.

Rock Monster
Rocka rollas ride.
On wings of destiny.
Sin after sin again.
Beware killing machines.
Hell bent for leather ending.
Stained class is tearing down.
Heed to British steel.
Point of entry in the ground.
Screaming for its vengeance.
Defenders of the faith.
Into turbo, ram it down.
The Painkiller awakes.
Raise the Jugulator.
It's demolition hour.
The angel of retribution.
Redeemer of souls' firepower.
Hail to the Judas Priest.
Heroes born from hell.
Raising up to fury.
The Iron...

Trapped By Ourselves
Heroes of older than fables of old.
Dive into darkness where legends unfold.
Battling serpents and enormous crabs.
In shimmering shadows and prime evil labs.
Armored colossus, the source of all sin.
Standing and chattering with their kin.
Spinning and beating the world into hell.
Defeat them and then you must battle yourselves.
Trapped by ourselves.
Facing the dark mirror inside.
Trapped by ourselves.
Purge the darkness with light.
Into internal fires of conflict.
Burning without a new spark.
Mottled in...
Dive into darkness where legends unfold.
Battling serpents and enormous crabs.
In shimmering shadows and prime evil labs.
Armored colossus, the source of all sin.
Standing and chattering with their kin.
Spinning and beating the world into hell.
Defeat them and then you must battle yourselves.
Trapped by ourselves.
Facing the dark mirror inside.
Trapped by ourselves.
Purge the darkness with light.
Into internal fires of conflict.
Burning without a new spark.
Mottled in...

Some Who Dare Be Crazy
I awake, I find me staring at myself.
On my hand I find the mark of an elf.
In the distance I hear manic laughter.
It scars my soul forever after.
Cause some who dare be crazy.
Some will dare be strange.
Some will dare speak bravely.
Some will dare be insane.
Blazing sun turns to placid nightfall.
I just stand in myself straight and tall.
Just waiting for the life to recall.
Struggling in this lifeless brawl.
Some who dare be crazy.
Some will dare be strange.
Some will dare speak bravely.
Some dare be...
On my hand I find the mark of an elf.
In the distance I hear manic laughter.
It scars my soul forever after.
Cause some who dare be crazy.
Some will dare be strange.
Some will dare speak bravely.
Some will dare be insane.
Blazing sun turns to placid nightfall.
I just stand in myself straight and tall.
Just waiting for the life to recall.
Struggling in this lifeless brawl.
Some who dare be crazy.
Some will dare be strange.
Some will dare speak bravely.

Catch Them All
I have a mission I've been told.
All my plans about to unfold.
Hear, everybody heed my call.
I gotta catch 'em all.
Got to catch them all!
I hail from Kazamino.
Had my place carved out in stone.
Took a blow to the ego.
Now I'm wandering alone.
Chased through streets and dirty alleys.
By some bullies, you could say.
They took all my defenses.
Chased all of my friends away.
But I hold within me a power they don't understand.
And now I have the oracle in the palm of my hand.
Make you mine,...
All my plans about to unfold.
Hear, everybody heed my call.
I gotta catch 'em all.
Got to catch them all!
I hail from Kazamino.
Had my place carved out in stone.
Took a blow to the ego.
Now I'm wandering alone.
Chased through streets and dirty alleys.
By some bullies, you could say.
They took all my defenses.
Chased all of my friends away.
But I hold within me a power they don't understand.
And now I have the oracle in the palm of my hand.
Make you mine,...
