ON A LIMB
ON A LIMB
Just a misanthrope without any hope
Hanging and dangling on the end of a rope
Swinging and singing without any breath
Dancing with Death on A whim
As the bright light of twilight suddenly dims
and grins at my Southerly sins
on A rope gently swaying within dancing belief
hanging out on the end of a limb

A CELL IN THE BODY OF GOD
A CELL IN THE BODY OF GOD
Everything I've ever seen
will always remain immortal
stained in inspired pain
behind a wire framed window pane
A multifaceted manufactured string woven
around every other single being struggling
and everything they've ever seen
will always remain woven together
into a majestic tapestry
of eternally flawed perfection
We're all just a part of a higher being
born and living and dying unseen
in a jail cell in a prison pod
We're all just a cell in the body of God

A GOG IN THE SCREAMING MACHINE
xx
COG IN THE SCREAMING MACHINE
Feed the machine
Forget the words
Just know what it means
as it moves forever onward
Sometimes you gotta lose your mind
just to save your soul
Sometimes you gotta burn your soul
just to free your mind
Just leave it all...

12;00 O'clock BLINKING
12.00 O'clock BLINKING
I didn't call in to work late
not that I was lazy
although my mind was mixed hazy
with hazelnut nut busting bustling coffee
dusted with no call, no see, no show
Beelzebub cussing, set free
with sprinkles of sin of man
with aspartame, the ass part of me
drunkin' in a dark mix
of sugur free dicks
set free for all to see
to shame me and to blame me
for my falling fate for not to call in late
as I'm holding my cock and staring and sinking
and thinking and still...

THATS THE PLAN FOR THE SANDMAN
THAT'S THE PLAN FOR THE SANDMAN
He's not like a snowman, no, man
Not a man-shaped sand castle ass hole
He's an emptied out part of your soul
POP THAT PILL---POP THAT PILL
FEEL THAT FEEL---MAKE IT REAL
And let the world grow dim in new light
Delight---new sight
Yeah----see-now you see---that is him
Reel in reality -suck in the aroma
Like a scorned newborn
awoken from a coma
Suck in the sounds which surrounds
the sights scorched
with torched tortured lights
Now you know----mmmmm.....
........me ......... ...

SHADOW DOLL
SHADOW DOLL
Fancy doll, dance and fall
and spin within a mating call
dance, deceive 'till we believe
the song behind the fading wall
persuade the fading masquerade
to never sever, play forever,
reinforce our fair endeavor
and shadow doll dance on

SCARS
SCARS
Scars are simply life's tattoos
ones we rarely choose
like artists' ink, each tells a tale
laid out on flesh for all to see
paid with pain as currency
come here and see
what fate has so far offered me
in every shape and size, design
upon our flesh, our soul, our mind
etched into every thought we think
unseen except through artist's ink
We're each given a scar upon our belly
an initiation badge for enduring our birth
Now earn your scars before you're set in a scar
dug deep in the belly of...

STILL ALIVE
STILL ALIVE
Bare your teeth in the barren land
join the dance
Never gonna get another chance
now's your chance
End your surrender, stay strong
Endure
Struggle to fend off Death's allure
Pain is pure
Swimming endorphins fading in the night
failing sight
Dimming of darkness, waiting for the light
Fade or fight
Grasp the last gasps of your final breaths
Let fate arrive
Cling onto the chance that you may survive
Still alive

PUNCHES IN THE ALLEY
I was walking the alleyways, collecting aluminum cans to sell on the next Saturday. I usually did this alone. I liked being alone, however, on this day I was there with my little brother, Alex, on babysitting duty.
Jason roared down the way with his side-kick riding bitch on the back of a gas powered mini bike, stopping there just to fuck with me.
Getting my ass kicked in the alley by the bully while his crony told him to let me be, as I picked up the pretty pink brick for defense, as the dobermans barked across the fence.
The bully grinned, and I dropped the brick back...
