Roads
Opens his arms to all the condemned
lays down his sword when overwhelmed
To puzzled and frail to comprehend
Rage fuelled agony all in his head
The now is his but the rest is lost again
A memory of laughter grazing his skin
Blood boiled in oil as he pretends
A parody of society now the 1%
Tired, boots laced up with no honor
A nostalgia from the past sad & somber
Sinking in his shame, red dagger, blue fire
Weights so heavy it crippled his posture
So..
when the world comes crashing down ...
lays down his sword when overwhelmed
To puzzled and frail to comprehend
Rage fuelled agony all in his head
The now is his but the rest is lost again
A memory of laughter grazing his skin
Blood boiled in oil as he pretends
A parody of society now the 1%
Tired, boots laced up with no honor
A nostalgia from the past sad & somber
Sinking in his shame, red dagger, blue fire
Weights so heavy it crippled his posture
So..
when the world comes crashing down ...

Some Days...
Some days I fly
Some days I crash
Some days I glow
Some days I am a black hole
Some days I thrive
Some days I whither
Some days I try and succeed
Some days I try and fail
Some days I feel loved
Some days I feel I let everyone down
Some days I feel like a winner
Some days I feel like a failure
Some days I feel magnetic
Some days I feel I'm repellant
Some days I felt alive
Some days I felt a want to die
Some days I do just right
Some days I try too hard
Some days I go with the flow
Some days I hit...
Some days I crash
Some days I glow
Some days I am a black hole
Some days I thrive
Some days I whither
Some days I try and succeed
Some days I try and fail
Some days I feel loved
Some days I feel I let everyone down
Some days I feel like a winner
Some days I feel like a failure
Some days I feel magnetic
Some days I feel I'm repellant
Some days I felt alive
Some days I felt a want to die
Some days I do just right
Some days I try too hard
Some days I go with the flow
Some days I hit...

All about my Father
All about my Father
He is the one that
Made us
Many years ago
And we are here
Because father
Gave us our lives
That is very special
We are very happy
Living every single day
Our lives
We know that we just
Can't gamble with our lives
It is only our Father
Who can put an end
To our lives
Also we are all brother's in
My father's world
He is the one that
Made us
Many years ago
And we are here
Because father
Gave us our lives
That is very special
We are very happy
Living every single day
Our lives
We know that we just
Can't gamble with our lives
It is only our Father
Who can put an end
To our lives
Also we are all brother's in
My father's world

The House on the Hill
The click of the lock is a familiar friend that I've heard a thousand times before
Strangely it never opens; it just helps remind me that it's closed.
Water in my lungs, sand in my eyes. No breath. No escape.
I am Jack's overwhelming knowledge of failure and disappointment.
You are the whirlwind, the storm to which a thousand voices call out in prayer.
Mine among them, whimper though my voice is compared to its thunderous roar.
But I am just me. Little, trapped, old, me.
That mirror is completely empty.
It always is because I...
Strangely it never opens; it just helps remind me that it's closed.
Water in my lungs, sand in my eyes. No breath. No escape.
I am Jack's overwhelming knowledge of failure and disappointment.
You are the whirlwind, the storm to which a thousand voices call out in prayer.
Mine among them, whimper though my voice is compared to its thunderous roar.
But I am just me. Little, trapped, old, me.
That mirror is completely empty.
It always is because I...

Torn
The guy in the mirror keeps smiling, but I don't want to.
Why????
Why????

Perpetual Agony
The point of your sword
Rests gently against the hollow base
Of my throat
After an eternity of quarrel and defeat
Domination and submission
Sex and brutality
The cycle is everlasting
Yet somehow you have managed
To discover the heinous act
Of destroying your greatest friend
Your faithful lover
Your compassionate kin
Your worst enemy;
We have gone through all that we did
For a sadistic victory;
One that was never fought for, or won;
But stolen
You cheated Fate...
Rests gently against the hollow base
Of my throat
After an eternity of quarrel and defeat
Domination and submission
Sex and brutality
The cycle is everlasting
Yet somehow you have managed
To discover the heinous act
Of destroying your greatest friend
Your faithful lover
Your compassionate kin
Your worst enemy;
We have gone through all that we did
For a sadistic victory;
One that was never fought for, or won;
But stolen
You cheated Fate...
