Truth hurts
You talk
Lies come
You walk
Time goes
The clock
You fly
No flock
No door
You knock
Afraid
You balk
A net
You're caught
The pain
You fought
The hate
You brought
The life
You sought
The world
They taught
The path
You got
The rope
The knot
The line
The dot
The sun
It's hot ...

Cock-Blocked
The source of my frustration
is that the World’s got the Kung-Flu
So now I'm stuck in isolation
'cos the government told me to
I’ve been held up in my pad
Every single night and day
And I’ve lost the job I had
So now I have no bloody pay
No women will hook up with me
for a casual root
So I’ve been getting no pussy
for which there is no substitute
I used to gallivant ‘round town
like a suave womaniser
But now I’m just a lonely clown
wanking with hand sanitiser ...

We Both Want Someone to Love Us Sincerely
There's a girl who wants someone to love her.
It must be hard for her to live without a relationship.
Sometimes she despairs when she's alone.
And she just can't resist the desire of her heart.
She's wondering if there’s someone who loves her.
It really hurts not to have a man in her home.
If she reveals her feelings and admits her loneliness,
Someday she'll learn what true love can do.
I also want to know if there’s someone who loves me.
Every day I try so hard to find a girl for myself.
I hate competing with men for the love of a...

Nightmarathon
I wander into the abyss many nights
Not just a tourist with a suitcase full of fears
But a resident in this wretched place
The demons crawl out of every shadow
And ravage me relentlessly
Sadness in my soul presses me harder and harder
And my mind is haunted by past horrors
The devil is my doctor and his cure is suffering
And on his surgeon’s table, pain eclipses fear
Nightmares come true at times and turn into realities
Only...
Not just a tourist with a suitcase full of fears
But a resident in this wretched place
The demons crawl out of every shadow
And ravage me relentlessly

And my mind is haunted by past horrors

And on his surgeon’s table, pain eclipses fear
Nightmares come true at times and turn into realities

Surrender Ave.
Maudlin unsigned love letters sent to you
by a bloody-knuckled drunk
organ-fucked into the next life
Perhaps I shall take my leave
A suicide promise free-fall
Then would you hear me?
Haunting you from the other side
of our world
Eternally untouched where I need you most
You are always searching for something
and I know it isn't me
by a bloody-knuckled drunk
organ-fucked into the next life
Perhaps I shall take my leave
A suicide promise free-fall
Then would you hear me?
Haunting you from the other side
of our world
Eternally untouched where I need you most
You are always searching for something
and I know it isn't me

Too Much...
My body hurts
Like all the time
Got nothing left
In this brain of mine
Running on fumes
Anxiety like spikes
Shards of negative thoughts
Shot out like daggers
Of a scared porcupine
I ain't got much but responses
Always responding
Always on edge
For the next thing to go wrong
Surviving from one bad thing to another
Here I am dancing on the ledge
Pretty sure I'm going to kill myself
But I'm always thinking that
An escape hatch
A door to open space
To a place without oxygen
There's no oxygen here ...

The Heir Apparent Part II
Here lies breeding grounds of amends
Drawing from the principles it defends
Trapped in the righteous tirade it faces
Welcoming its revered coming of ages
An enticing presence from moons ago
Its lewd indecency, obscene depravity
Streams of awe ripple along adversity
Lured by the seductive appeal of woe
Defying liabilities of intrinsic hostilities
The foul beckons, lures, casts its spell
Housing falsities and impure dualities
A shelter where dubious creeds dwell
It upholds the...

the begger girl
she was berely there,
a shadow cast in the
rain.
her wet hair matted
to her face,
head tilted down,
eyes squinted against
the spate.
as I drove past,
I read the sign
in her hands...
"ANYTHING
HELPS,
GOD BLESS."
I don't think
he does...
a shadow cast in the
rain.
her wet hair matted
to her face,
head tilted down,
eyes squinted against
the spate.
as I drove past,
I read the sign
in her hands...
"ANYTHING
HELPS,
GOD BLESS."
I don't think

Sweetwood Song
I still remember our last night
These streets empty
I collapsed in your arms
in a graveyard
The dead flowers felt like
kitchen knives beneath my feet
I just wanted to bleed all over your world
And chain you to mine
These streets empty
I collapsed in your arms
in a graveyard
The dead flowers felt like
kitchen knives beneath my feet
I just wanted to bleed all over your world
And chain you to mine

Love Hound
Pretty lady on my mind, consuming time from inside.
Fighting spirit indigent from lack of love.
Lost to confide, openly craving her touch.
Eager to learn your nature internal.
Heart meets doom, passionate realm infernal.
Baby ride with me and take your time with me.
Eternal, is my desire undying.
Yearning for you I die slowly, crying.
Jumping leads me to ends, with no chance to win.
My beautiful smile, as into deep, pretend.
Torture welcomed, as I let you gaze upon.
Wishing for the sin of ends, I can't pretend. ...
