Ignoring It
When one
Feels it
One cannot
Unfeel It
One can only
Ignore It
Where one could
WELL regret it
For the rest
Of One's life
Feels it
One cannot
Unfeel It
One can only
Ignore It
Where one could
WELL regret it
For the rest
Of One's life

Exasperated.
I sighed my last sigh.
With nothing to show.
For all this wasted time.
The still buzz on the screen.
Electricity.
And a passion.
I could never find.
With nothing to show.
For all this wasted time.
The still buzz on the screen.
Electricity.
And a passion.
I could never find.

All love is lost
It's all over now
I had one more chance to live
I wrecked my own dreams
I had one more chance to live
I wrecked my own dreams

Whiskey
Half gone, that
Old No. 7,
Thoughts perking
Toward Heaven,
But mired in hell,
Nearly fully drowned,
Truth to tell:
How it’d always go down
Old No. 7,

But mired in hell,
Nearly fully drowned,

Silence
Bring to me
the death
of my memories,
this blissful spawn
of sweet relief.
Release Belial's
brutal squeeze
before the rage
of dawn arrives
to take away
into a bloody bath
the ghostly silence
of the night.
the death
of my memories,
this blissful spawn
of sweet relief.
Release Belial's
brutal squeeze
before the rage
of dawn arrives
to take away
into a bloody bath
the ghostly silence

Web
I cried above a spider's web,
Lucky for the spider each tear dropped between each thread,
Felt too soon was relief,
For it began to pour;
And I watch the web unweave.
Lucky for the spider each tear dropped between each thread,
Felt too soon was relief,
For it began to pour;
And I watch the web unweave.

Life forever erased
I can't see my lucid dreams
Blindfolded
Thoughts abandoned in empty frames
Climbing stairs to chaos
I fall before I awake
Visually dying
Life forever erased
Blindfolded
Thoughts abandoned in empty frames
Climbing stairs to chaos
I fall before I awake
Visually dying
Life forever erased

Waste
I fell in
Again
Halfway down
A bottle of bliss
Wasted the day
And now I’m pissed
And all I hear
Inside my ear
Is the reprimand
For my error
And then I see
It so clear
Facing me
In the mirror
Again
Halfway down
A bottle of bliss
Wasted the day
And now I’m pissed
And all I hear
Inside my ear
Is the reprimand
For my error
And then I see
It so clear
Facing me
In the mirror

young and fearless
i was once
young
and fearless,
i did
things
to my
satisfaction,
too careless
to be
beat down,
but now
so many
years
have passed,
my youth
long gone,
and i
take
my time,
i'm
a little
more cautious
these days.

Grief Lives After We Die
As I die
mortals watch the day
crying for eternity
embrace your hand in mine
daylight torn
pity the sadness
no forgiveness
forever be
burning me
mortals watch the day
crying for eternity
embrace your hand in mine
daylight torn
pity the sadness
no forgiveness
forever be
burning me

Mistakes in Stone
I, fully convinced,
Blazed a trail through walls of stone.
I, wholly mindless,
Destroyed beauty and love.
My folly now etched in time
Blazed a trail through walls of stone.
I, wholly mindless,
Destroyed beauty and love.
My folly now etched in time
