Silence
My dreams echo into silence
where dark shadows wander freely,
as voices weary and worn stumble
over beautiful and tragic audiences,
within a barren landscape
while thoughts drip into puddles,
overflowing the senses
growing like a twisted memory.
where dark shadows wander freely,
as voices weary and worn stumble
over beautiful and tragic audiences,
within a barren landscape
while thoughts drip into puddles,
overflowing the senses
growing like a twisted memory.

Beast 2
I am my own worse enemy, behind lies lain in self.
Though, long in path, this strife is owned, untamed, dispite what's felt.
Wherein, staid dreams of sweat-filled Past come to stir The Id in
embrace. And with mournful sighs, It pierces night to drive forth heartless
stake.
As the rivers run red in spiritual blood, to course with Fate's filled
swells, The Heavens reign down Its trumpet's call, wherein, prey
thirstless wells. And, to fill Its void in depthless pools with all that life has
feared; Hell does take what Life remains uncut, found in...

Remorse
He is racked with full remorse
So much to forgive
His past yet retains its influence
The many vices
Treachery
Negligence towards those he loves
It all echoes in the night
Down hallways of recollection
Still, he now vows to gaze ahead
Diminish tendencies that linger
The duplicity of his soul
His time may well be limited
But there is decency, his lasting goal.

Call out my name
In my dreams you still call out my name. You are gone now, we are both to blame for the extinguishment of that flame. Lasting forever was the aim. Your heart I tried to claim, but it all came to an end like every other game. Due to all the trials of us I may walk in shame. I used to think what we had was above all, so great we should have been in the hall of fame.
In my dreams you still call out my name
My name you still call. It’s not ever so small. All the arguments all the built up distrust, I shouldn’t have kept it going I shouldn’t have played ball. How high...

Vanished
As I walk through these gates ahead,
I am left, I am left; I am left behind.
In this cold world when there is nothing but regrets,
I fall to my knees to pray, all I can say is why?
As the beauty shines from up above,
I am alone in fields of thorns, waiting on a sign.
In a land of darkness, I am searching for true love,
But there is nothing out there to be found, all the flowers have died.
The roses I carry are wilting away,
The basket I made has holes throughout.
The hope I once had will never find me again
And as...
I am left, I am left; I am left behind.
In this cold world when there is nothing but regrets,
I fall to my knees to pray, all I can say is why?
As the beauty shines from up above,
I am alone in fields of thorns, waiting on a sign.
In a land of darkness, I am searching for true love,
But there is nothing out there to be found, all the flowers have died.
The roses I carry are wilting away,
The basket I made has holes throughout.
The hope I once had will never find me again
And as...

Feel my pain
Fell my pain
It runs deep.
So close to
The edge
I dont no how
Steep.
Feel my pain
My heart never
Beats
My mind my
Body my soul
Is were
You eat .
You hear my voice
You fast to
My cry im
Far drivin
To see you
Some how die.
Alone so alone
To live in my
Pain
Feel my pain
It drives me insane.
It runs deep.
So close to
The edge
I dont no how
Steep.
Feel my pain
My heart never
Beats
My mind my
Body my soul
Is were
You eat .
You hear my voice
You fast to
My cry im
Far drivin
To see you
Some how die.
Alone so alone
To live in my
Pain
Feel my pain
It drives me insane.

Gave it all i had
I told you a lie
That probly made
You mad.
I made it look
Good i gave
It all that i had .
I told you,you
Were Beautiful
But your ugly
As hell.
I said I'd be fateful
I lied to you
As well.
I told you you
Couldnt see
Some how you became
Blind.
I told you you
Couldnt be
Some how you
Became mine.
You should be happy
But i hope that
Your sad.
I made it look good
Gave it all
That i had.
That probly made
You mad.
I made it look
Good i gave
It all that i had .
I told you,you
Were Beautiful
But your ugly
As hell.
I said I'd be fateful
I lied to you
As well.

But i hope that
Your sad.

The Perverted
What happened to the one I was the one I used to be?
Stranger am I each time my gaze is done reflectively.
The sin I seek is often stroked leaving love denied.
An audience I feel at home among them I can hide.
Things and others badge their failures upon proud uniform.
Uncloaked and naked revealed to all despite the armor worn.
Kept are mine like treasure earned never will I share.
So near to me one day she’ll see and wonder if I care.
Ironic slave that will not master graces painful fall.
Blind more when more can be seen desperate for it all. ...

Several flights of stairs
There's a spiral staircase in my brain
And it just so happens I'm falling down
Like many droplets of sunny rain
I put a smile in front of my frown
And bitter tears I do not shed
I shed them all within my head
For thoughts of the past and good deeds
I've changed a lot, I know, indeed
And it just so happens I'm falling down
Like many droplets of sunny rain
I put a smile in front of my frown
And bitter tears I do not shed
I shed them all within my head
For thoughts of the past and good deeds
I've changed a lot, I know, indeed

No Prince Charming
It is a deeply lonely life
That I have chosen to live
Surrounded by myriad people
Who take but never give
I retreat into my own little world
When a kind word is spoken
I am skeptical and unbelieving
So many times, my heart has been broken
My loneliness I don like armor
No prince by my side
No fairytale man
The pieces of my heart scattered far and wide
I chose this life I know
Always doing the expected
Devoted to a misconception
Now choices regretted
That I have chosen to live
Surrounded by myriad people
Who take but never give
I retreat into my own little world
When a kind word is spoken
I am skeptical and unbelieving
So many times, my heart has been broken
My loneliness I don like armor
No prince by my side
No fairytale man
The pieces of my heart scattered far and wide
I chose this life I know
Always doing the expected
Devoted to a misconception
Now choices regretted
