Evil Within Us All/Spread Like a Plague
Have you any clue whatsoever?
I have a world of doubt
I've snuck into backrooms
To view the acts of darkness
I've been the punching bag
But I too am filled with violence
I could rip each layer of skin off
While locking eyes
Fading from consciousness
Demons are inside us all
Evil
Spread like a plague
We all have our moments
To cower and to beg
We've all been the victim
Turned guilty
And I live with regrets
Spread like a plague
We all have our moments
Where justice seems vague ...
I have a world of doubt
I've snuck into backrooms
To view the acts of darkness

But I too am filled with violence
I could rip each layer of skin off
While locking eyes
Fading from consciousness
Demons are inside us all
Evil
Spread like a plague
We all have our moments
To cower and to beg
We've all been the victim
Turned guilty
And I live with regrets
Spread like a plague
We all have our moments
Where justice seems vague ...

I Am Afraid
Somberly coming to a realization
The present scares me because
I see the sun now, it's hopeful
I don't want the future to become
The past I tried so hard to get away from
I don't want the sun to set.
The present scares me because
I see the sun now, it's hopeful
I don't want the future to become
The past I tried so hard to get away from
I don't want the sun to set.

Contentment
I could float away on your smile
I don't know how to swim but
I could swim away in those eyes
Your face is a painting
You're a walking artform
I am wholly content
Within the embrace
Of your loving arms.
I don't know how to swim but
I could swim away in those eyes
Your face is a painting
You're a walking artform
I am wholly content

Death and Friendship
Twin eye glisten
Water falling down
Porcelain cheeks
I've been locked inside
Dying the same death for weeks
Lace dragging the floor
From your favorite dress
The one you were going to
Get married in
But now it's a death gown
No one is smiling
You faded away, a needle sticking in
Dead veins, eyes rolled shut
Nothing is redeeming
I am not dreaming
The sky isn't blue anymore
I'm still silently screaming.
Water falling down

You faded away, a needle sticking in
Dead veins, eyes rolled shut
Nothing is redeeming

The sky isn't blue anymore

Smells Like Decaying Spirit
The room is silent
Yet it is void of peace
It's an anxious hush
A gun is pressed tightly
Against my temple
I can hear the trigger
Creak slowly toward oblivion
I can't tell if I'm holding the gun
Or if it is in the hand of my enemy
Or if in fact, I am my enemy
And both of these are true
The bullet is antsy
The great anticipation
To carry out such an adventure
Into the brain matter and skull
My head will turn inside out
Homicide? Suicide?
Someone will have to...
Yet it is void of peace
It's an anxious hush
A gun is pressed tightly
Against my temple
I can hear the trigger
Creak slowly toward oblivion
I can't tell if I'm holding the gun
Or if it is in the hand of my enemy
Or if in fact, I am my enemy
And both of these are true
The bullet is antsy
The great anticipation
To carry out such an adventure
Into the brain matter and skull
My head will turn inside out
Homicide? Suicide?
Someone will have to...

Lovers No Longer In Love (Making Love)
Let this fight die
Instincts will win
Skin burrowing into flesh
Two turned into one
Intertwined bodies
Both void of any soul
To see you in such a moment
To witness you in such a state
Is shattering, who knew
We were so fragile?
What a goddamn lonesome love
One painful orgasm
I hate you as much as I hate myself.
Instincts will win

Two turned into one

Both void of any soul

What a goddamn lonesome love
One painful orgasm
I hate you as much as I hate myself.

The Blissful and The Blind
I wish I could tell you everything
Unload the burden kept within
I am free to do so
But you're a captive
You're walking alone
With an illusion of love
I wish you had my vision
I know I'm usually wrong
But this time I'm right
Time will prove it to be
I hope before it is too late
You too can see what I see.

A Mirror of Voices
Can you hear screams coming from the forest
behind my distressed house?
They sound like they're far away
They aren't
they came from me
It's just an echo reflecting
A mirror of voices
A mirror I wish I could break.
behind my distressed house?
They sound like they're far away
They aren't

It's just an echo reflecting
A mirror of voices

The Exit of A Smile
One smile
To a life
Unlit
Is such a gift
One smile
That now is
Fleeting
Turning away
As I turn to catch
One last glimpse.

Silent
Too timid to speak
I lied to you twice
With words unsaid
Just a pale look
Intertwined eyes
You took as anger
You supposed the silence
Was a lack of affection
I hope one day
I can right the wrong.

What a Fine Day to Die
Quiet waters unmarred
Still and refecting heavens
The air feels like common autumn
You can almost feel the forgotten
souls who've closed their eyes
I've closed my two windows
From this peaceful view
I wanted one last memory
Of a world that didn't seem
So utterly fucked
I came here to find joy
I wanted an escape
I've only found a shortcoming
My emotions no longer function
I'm blind to the beauty
And deaf to harmony
It all seems so silly
To expect some view
Such as this scene
To be...

Forced Upon
Walk across this floor
As I once did
With cold bare skin
Between a cage of pink walls
These awful plastic shower curtains
It was agonizing and terrifying
I tried a lifetime of denying
Those few minutes that changed me
I rocked to and fro
In a sea in trembling
I've not seen a blue sky
I've not felt a warm night
Torturous memories
Keep your disgraceful face alive
I thought you died long ago
But you remain in my mind
As vile and violent as then
Mastermind, keeping silence
That sacred...
