An Empire Of A Thousand Years
Cries of anger in the fatherland
The cession of the west and rape at Versailles
The sparks for armies again to rise
A party of men with another vision
It's so clear to them now
Different people cannot share the land
A plague and he has the cure
Inspired by deeds done long ago
Flesh turned to ash
Armies pouring through the borders
They have been waiting to long
The fires all over the land burn
Troops go in and cattle cars go out
Parades bearing torch...
The cession of the west and rape at Versailles
The sparks for armies again to rise
A party of men with another vision
It's so clear to them now
Different people cannot share the land
A plague and he has the cure
Inspired by deeds done long ago
Flesh turned to ash
Armies pouring through the borders
They have been waiting to long
The fires all over the land burn
Troops go in and cattle cars go out

What Do You Not Understand About Death
Do you think death understands time
showing up as a final act
stopping the music
nullifying encores
That's not your only death
Some deaths are tiny
Staying seated when you want to dance.
Suppressing your opinion
Staying with the same hair color and style for decades.
Some deaths bury you three feet under.
Being the exact same person you were a year ago.
Avoiding relationships because you've been burned.
Keeping a job you loathe.
Neglecting your health.
Not actively striving to be better at...
showing up as a final act
stopping the music
nullifying encores
That's not your only death
Some deaths are tiny
Staying seated when you want to dance.
Suppressing your opinion
Staying with the same hair color and style for decades.
Some deaths bury you three feet under.
Being the exact same person you were a year ago.
Avoiding relationships because you've been burned.
Keeping a job you loathe.
Neglecting your health.
Not actively striving to be better at...

Is There Life on Mars?
Such barren fields of verse eye sees
the only crop is withered angst
all fertilized by me! me! me!
such arid lines of verse to read,
Aye', and here's the rub writ on sleeves
and at the risk of seeming crank,
seek outside self just look and see
then you might write some poetry.
I swear I'd see more life on Mars
dumb robots squeak much sweeter tunes,
no trilling larks but lasting marks
than those writ here without a spark,
no canals for sure so no barques
no maid Thuvia too or Barsoom.
it seems to me the...

what I would ask our leaders
if you've forgot the place
where you came from
then how the hell do you
know where you are going
...and why would you expect
us to follow
where you came from
then how the hell do you
know where you are going

straight forward metaphor
do you see me brother?, why of course you do
I see your men of course I do
I see your plan
did you really think I would cross over?
no, really you didn't
you know better about me
I belong to him
my house will fall, I will burn if he orders
your dream is obscene
get off my block son
you're treading murky waters
no Luce, I am an underwater swimmer
I see in the dark without eyes
keep your offer I don't seek to rule with you
I didn't come for money
I am a royal soldier of old ...
I see your men of course I do
I see your plan
did you really think I would cross over?
no, really you didn't
you know better about me
I belong to him
my house will fall, I will burn if he orders
your dream is obscene
get off my block son
you're treading murky waters
no Luce, I am an underwater swimmer
I see in the dark without eyes
keep your offer I don't seek to rule with you
I didn't come for money
I am a royal soldier of old ...
