But the voices in my head always disagree
The voices in my head do not always agree
one says yes and the other says no not me
when one is stupid and young the other is wise and older
and when one feels hot the other feels colder
when one wants what's wrong the other declares I want what's right
when one sits alone in the dark the other searches for the light
one afraid to stray from comfort the other embarks on the next challenge
the battle between them use to drive me crazy but I learn it's also keeps me balance
but this time it's different and I'm scared cause I don't know what to do ...

Misery to Misery is comfort
Have you ever felt like you spend your life holding your breathe and it’s not until your alone
that you are truly able to breathe
Lonely but not alone and just wishing the strangers you know so well would leave
That view you as solid cause they don’t see when you sweep up your own crumbs
Your calm and collect composure doesn’t expose your heart beating to the rhythm of cinematic drums
Do you reflect on death a lot , wondering if in the afterlife you would even think that you left a lot
But that’s neither here nor there because for others you must laugh a...

A This is
The responsibility of society we don't put into a deity
no mass deception or mask perception
or scripted collections form as spiritual weapons
shall hinder the sender, nor the sinner
for who are we , not to remember
our very own transitions, transgressions
that makes us translators for transformations
and removes judgement from conversations
but they ask me who God is
and I say a this is
no mass deception or mask perception
or scripted collections form as spiritual weapons
shall hinder the sender, nor the sinner
for who are we , not to remember
our very own transitions, transgressions
that makes us translators for transformations
and removes judgement from conversations
but they ask me who God is
and I say a this is

Broken
Broken promises scattered amongst broken dishes
broken hearts that broke apart now require stitching
broken limbs no longer bend to gusts of winds
is all a sign a broken man is breaking down within

Someones hero
When people want to be with me they give me all my special characteristics,
and I just sit there and listen
athletic but poetic, smart with a dreamers heart
connecting to me and never wanting to part
hansom and well groomed
the shine of a lit moon
financially stable, healthy and able
and brining so more then then many to the table
and on the list goes but it seems nobody knows
the reason I would let them into my soul
they say I love you because of this and that
and all they list is me so I consider it to all be fact
but I fear...

Farmer and his seed
A farmer planted a seed, and something amazing grew out of that seed
so amazing that people came from far to see the farmer who had planted the seed
they interviewed the farmer intrigued to his methods and where he had gotten the seed
but one day while talking the plant went through a transformation and this was obviously not your average seed
it begin to reached further to the sky and its bulbs open to display colors of a wide array
somethings so beautiful and enchanting it was heavenly sent and many begin to pray
to the glorious plant that once was once just...

Lovers Vow
I will follow, please just take it slow
where ever you lead me, believe me I'm willing to go
just don't get me out there and leave me neglected
cause all I ask for is to be protected
where ever you lead me, believe me I'm willing to go
just don't get me out there and leave me neglected

To be loved
Broken promises left their fair share on damages
Only the strong could survive but somehow you handle it
I know your heart is nothing to play with and how much you hate it
they ask for your heart , they take it then they break it
and you just wanna be enough
and you just want to be loved
Only the strong could survive but somehow you handle it
I know your heart is nothing to play with and how much you hate it
they ask for your heart , they take it then they break it
and you just wanna be enough
and you just want to be loved

Kings and pions
Pions mad they dont receive the same treatment as kings now
They dream of being royal but do not keep in my mind heavy is head that bears the crown
You see they are not equal one gives so much more, responsible for so more and is weighted by stress that would pin a pion to the floor
Cause kings give purpose , direction and guidance
And pions rely on kings for purpose, direction and guidance
Take a way that purpose, direction and guidance
Then pions are left with out purpose , direction and guidance
So dare they ask me one me I hey my cake and eat it...

Love Hoax
Love is a hoax , a cruel joke composed of complex chemical reactions, attractions and social interactions. Where it is more defined by time and presence then something we perceive to be something manifested from the heavens.
The first one you said I love you did you feel any difference cause on the outside it still sounded the same
Still probably lit up the face of the reviecer before either party knew it would change.
I mean it's not like when fucking we moan any different,
Do you crave it from everyone you love as much as you beg the one you currently love to give...

Stones
What its like to lose a diamond collecting stones
Looking for something worthless, over looking the priceless jewel you already own
believing that quantity is worth more then quality
unknowingly blinded by feudal attempts to equate quality to quantity
