What on earth!?
What on earth is happening
What on earth is going on
Can’t keep up with all the calamity
But everything’s going wrong
First my dad gets cancer
Then I find my own mum dead
Now they think I have HIV
And it’s fucking with my head
Just give a girl a fucking break
Let me please chill the fuck out
Need a lie down in a quiet room
It’s stirred up so much doubt
Brother in rehab the year before last
A cousin with a brain tumour too
Got debt coming out my eye balls
And yet I keep plodding on
...

Major Depressive
Depression waits
Around the corner
Lurking in the dark unknown
Depression weights
Deep in my soul
Clawing when I’m all alone
When did the moon
Get so heavy
A burden of light and hope
Why does the moon
Cut me so
A crescent razor to cope
It may take years
To face my fears
And overcome this plight
The end isn’t near
But my eyes are clear
And I’ll never give up the fight
Around the corner
Lurking in the dark unknown
Depression weights
Deep in my soul
Clawing when I’m all alone
When did the moon
Get so heavy
A burden of light and hope
Why does the moon
Cut me so
A crescent razor to cope
It may take years
To face my fears
And overcome this plight
The end isn’t near
But my eyes are clear
And I’ll never give up the fight

go ahead
I dare you
test my strength
it’s a little known secret
I go nowhere without backup
it’s never just me
he knew this
I warned him
he just didn't listen
maybe he thought himself immune
...silly fool
when my safety is in jeopardy
she's always there for me
my hidden weapon
even I didn't know she existed
until we came together
unexpectedly
always in moments of crisis
she emerges from the aether
the first time...
I watched as she emerged ...

Wrong Choices
staying out for the night
playing with matches
arsom favours unhinged minds
creating coctails of pills and booze
keeping everyone waiting
whether i live or die
another selfish act
verifying my asshole credentials
cause it fails every time
nothing falls alone
as hearts hit stone
like falling raindrops
leaving a blood red ringed rainbow
precious little breaths
makes this void so much worse
blindly coming undone
still life upon skewers
biting hard on bone
stops rising throat screams
...

Rammed Fist
spirraling
downwards
abyss awaiting
old dark friend
whisper poison
rejoin the conversation
paranoia never far away
persecution stabs deeper
insignificant ant scurry along
we are killers incorporated
ants our specialty
causing mayhem
in your once peaceful mind
feel wires burning
circuit board melting
thought process tangled mess
up all night overthinking
each scenario builds darker walls
imprisoning light
fist rammed down throat
muffling coming screams ...

Pressure
Will someone be my stomach
So I don’t have to eat
Will someone be my eyes
So I don’t have to see
Will someone be my mind
So I don’t have to think
Will someone be my ears
So I don’t have to hear
Will someone be my smile
So I don’t have to laugh
Will someone be my heart
So I don’t have to feel
Will someone be my nose
So I don’t have to smell
Will someone be my voice
So I don’t have to speak
Will someone be my arms
So I don’t have to hug
Can...

At your local auto store
People are like oil filters,
after 5,000 miles or 6 months,
you should replace your lover.
Over time people build up,
harmful, abrasive, sludgy bits,
that will find their way into your heart.
If not replaced as instructed, those toxic pollutants may kill you.
So remember,
keep your organs and psyche clean.
That's my message to you...Guaranteed!

Other Than That, Missus Lincoln
I got to sleep
finally at 5 a.m.
forgot to turn off the phone
and case manager called at 9:55
about my protein order
which is months late bc
I or somebody forgot to--
no, they had left a msg
on my whatchacallit
voice mail
and I never answer
unknown numbers or voice mail
bc they always want money
and I am already tapped out,
giving to Katie Porter--who lost-- ...

Something needed to be done
The board review came to a decision
They found him sane
One doctor felt otherwise
Doctor knew that he fooled the board and staff
The doctor pleaded with the medical board
They saw nothing wrong
The ex girlfriend was always afraid of him
He went psycho on her a few times
For no apparent reason
She would have liked to do normal things couples would do
Instead, she had to worry when something so small and minute would agitate him
He didn't like that she was talking to her brother
He thought her & her brother were secretly in love ...

Their out there, just be aware
God told me to slay you, so I can stay alive
I slay children
I enjoy to see them in pain
I slay children
Bounded in shackles & chains
I slay children
Lure them in with colorful gum
I slay children
Their last day of having fun
I'll detonate the school bus
Blast out the tires
Explosion so grand
Kids dead from the fire
You all need to die
and that's the price you pay
I'm taking away your precious one
Could be tomorrow or maybe today
I have no regrets
I have no remorse ...
