Be silent they said
It was how I was controlled
Being seen not heard

Promised
The rains are here
Just like you promised
Shall I cry with them
Or remember
At least in this, you were honest
Just like you promised
Shall I cry with them
Or remember
At least in this, you were honest

Blinded Heart
The demons, they lurk, /
unseen by my blinded heart, /
my sweet tormentors.
unseen by my blinded heart, /
my sweet tormentors.

A Gremlin In The Kremlin
Vlad The Mad
Gremlin, in the Kremlin
Inhuman
and inhumane
Deranged
And insane
If he wishes
To serve up nuclear dishes
To denazify
He best make a fist
And place himself
Top of the list

A Suffering of Fools
The ones
who whisper
behind the
backs of many
haven't a face
but a mask.
Those who
listen are
all ears
and no mind.

with friends like this...
when they keep
throwing you back
into the fire you
are trying to
escape from,
and telling you
that they care...
liars.

It is of these

are born that
even God dares
not sleep

Puppets...
We've
evolved
into puppets
but the strings
grew longer
so that you
can't see
the fingers...

Flatline
Conditioned to believe this
Told to do that
Falling in line may be bliss
But that line is flat
Told to do that
Falling in line may be bliss
But that line is flat
