Butterfly
If the darkness cleaned our bodies
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us
If the air that we suffocated with
Only hadn't let us go
...
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us

Alone
Sitting here alone
Waiting for someone to speak
Time will someday end
Waiting for someone to speak
Time will someday end

Take Me Back
Take me back to a place I want to go
Where cartoons and candy is all I know
Life was easier and more grand
Go to the beach, digging in the sand
Met with friends, knocked on their door
Kids today sit around, what the fuck for?
Baseball, biking, swimming all day
Post 2001 life has turned so grey
Government and tech has ruined our lives
Increase pressures, illness and suicide
Optimism flew away years ago
My personal opinion, just so you know
Where cartoons and candy is all I know
Life was easier and more grand
Go to the beach, digging in the sand
Met with friends, knocked on their door
Kids today sit around, what the fuck for?
Baseball, biking, swimming all day
Post 2001 life has turned so grey
Government and tech has ruined our lives
Increase pressures, illness and suicide
Optimism flew away years ago
My personal opinion, just so you know

She
She was a junkie
she told her friends that she was going to get out of this apt that her boyfriend owns
she says there's bad vibes there
she said that he keeps me hooked on smack
she wanted change
she wanted to pull away from him, seek help and move forward
she wanted to escape the city & get away from people, places & things
she decided to hang with her girlfriends one night
she was at her best friends place
she got the urge to get high
she most certainly did, a half hour later,
she was found dead on the floor in her girlfriends...

A Crooked Concept
Some monsters have always said
There are parents under my bed
One of their names is Ted
The other goes by Deb
There are parents under my bed
They won’t eat me as long as their fed
There are parents under my bed
Their complexions are lumpy & red
There are parents under my bed
My dreams are filled with dread
There are parents under my bed
I’d like to shoot them with lead
There are parents under my bed
Must act now before I wind up dead
There are parents under my bed
They say this illusion is in my head
There are...

On My Farm
My wife began singing yesterday morning
within one hour, all of our livestock perished
she's tone deaf and damn proud of it
within the hour a cow, a pig & horse from out of nowhere came to our front door
there were all standing on their hind legs
the cow had a crowbar
the horse had a sickle
the pig had a gun
they confronted me and asked to see my wife
i said there she is
she was still singing
they placed earplugs into their ears
then headphones over their ears
they confronted her and began slicing her to bits
the pig...

Big Pharma = Big Corruption
Pharmaceutical companies have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders to maximize profits.
By law, company directors and executives can and should be removed from their positions if they fail to maximize profits.
No one disputes this. This is true for all corporations but in the case of the pharmaceutical industry it leads to the death of nations.
Curing disease is not profitable.
Treating chronic disease is where all of the money is to be made.
Causing chronic disease increases profits further.
Therefore, by law, pharmaceutical...
