Bottom

 

Pick yourself up

Look around

you have fallen,

Fallen down

From your perch

Up in the sky

Now you sit

and wonder why

The status quo

You lived by

They up and left you

Now you cry

on the bottom

of the land

Weep and wail

hold up your hands

I walk on by

this is my home

The shadows comfort

I can roam

I see you there

Help you up

You turn around

And see the cups

In my hands

One of truth

One of poison

One of youth

Drink your fill

Try again

I slink away

to my den

So if you fall

and can't get up

Remember me and

the three cups

One of poison

One of truth

and the last one

One of youth

What does it mean

No-one knows

I'm not telling

Maybe crows

Can tell you why

The end of days

The end of stories

End of haze

I eschew youth

and questions why

I shun the end

and suicide

I drink of truth

My only friend

The deepest pain

The beginning's end

So when you're pushed

and then you fall

pick yourself up

my name call

I will arrive

The shadow's man

the guide and prophet

The one who can

Help you back

On your feet

Try and thank me

I am fleet

I live alone

Will never die

For I drank of truth

and not suicide

Dreaming

 

I see your eyes in the night,

Watching me

I feel your caress in the blanket,

Touching me

I hear your voice in the music,

Joining me

I cannot be beside you

For I hate me

 

I want your kisses on my lips

I want your body next to mine

I want to feel your arms around me

I know I can never have you, time, time.

I want to know that you love me

I want to talk to you all night long

I want to taste your sweet skin

 

But I'm not worthy of what I have...

Which is nothing at all.

So I'm not worthy of you, girl,

I can never ever love you

My issues weigh me down

I need to hide myself from you!

 

I need to feel you voice beside me

I need to be your valentine

I need to be your loving companion

And you need to be mine

But it's not what I need that matters

It's what has to be done

To keep myself from loving you

The pain is never fun

 

You always hurt

The ones you love

The gentle voice

Of God above

He cursed me with my sickness

And left me here to die

I will not be defeated

And spit blindly in his eye

I will walk my path alone, dear

You cannot follow me

I balance on the thin line

between madness and sanity

 

I need to feel your body

But I know I can't

I need to hear you love me

But I know that you don't

And even if you do,

I'll end up hurting you

Because I'm dreaming

Dreaming of you girl...

Yeah, I'm a dreamer

Lost in my own world

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Am I?

 

Am I

Handsome?

Am I

Kind?

Am I

Funny?

Or do you

Lie?

Your face is vibrant

Full of life

My face is deadened

Full of strife

So why do you want me

I cannot say

I run away now

For fear of day

Though you need me,

Tou must stay true

To the man that

Will shatter you.

I wait alone now

I'm sleeping less

My eyes are empty

My room's a mess

I wait to see you

I need you near

I long to feel you

And ease my fear

We thrive in discord

Chaos is home

I sit and watch now

Within my dome

I reach out to you

You fade away

I'm only dreaming

I sit and pray

 

Oh god, please help me

I need her badly

I cannot bear it

I live life sadly

I need to touch her

And rub her back

And compliment her

When comes back

I need to stay up

All night with her

And talk 'bout the sky

And the free birds...

Sins of the Father

 

I am my father's son

Killer, liar, thief

I am the firstborn son

The one brought to grief

I lie awake and dream

Of pits of hell below

Of burning fires and ash

From the lava flows

I cannot touch the skies

Cannot reach for life

I cannot help the hate

My soul is stained with strife

 

Why did you leave me dad?

Did I betray you?

I bleed invisible blood

And wish for a clue

 

I hate myself for this

Your crimes must be my fault

My fault you killed that man

My life's locked in the vault

Your guns stole from the world

Humanity's my foe

Becuase of me you killed

Satan wants my soul below

I am a sinner born

Born to mom and you

Your sins have passed to me

The evil sinks on through

 

Sins of the father passed

It must be my fault

Though I know not how

I've the soul of an adult

 

So I sing this song

And hug my sins so close

My friends can't understand

In my faults I find hope

If I atone my marks

Against society

Maybe I can live

In common decency

So with all my soul

I stand and fight

I killed so many men

I live within the night

 

I

Die

With

Sin

This

Night

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Not the End

 

I fell down the darkened well

My soul was wounded, would I heal?

I decided to end my life

Rid the world of me and my strife

I walked down the hall of doom

Drew the knife, entered the room

My final rest, the one deserved

The knife's edge is sharp and curved

I set the blade to my skin

I tried to slice and reach within

But I could not find the strength

To end my life, pain without length

For as I stood there with the edge

I gazed at my eyes, at the ledge

Within my soul, my perfect place

My soul's temple, no disgrace

Within I found there was need

My soul on the world of greed

The one I need, I've never met

She said she needs me, I regret

My decision to slit my throat

I cannot kill me, so I wrote

This little poem, hope it explains

Why I am alive and not insane

I cannot leave this world behind

That would be selfish, and a lie

So I stand, alone with my friends

And wish I was happy, though I never am.

So don't worry, I'm still here

For my life you should never fear

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Two-Faced

 

You're trying to trap me

With your lies

Put your arms around me

And tell me it's fine

But I know my secrets

My other side

You've never seen the darkness

That grows inside

 

Two-Faced!

I'm swallowing hate

You can't

See my fate

 

Razorblades and curses,

Notes of suicide

Knives and broken edges

Wishin' I had died

I'm worthless in the darkness

A liar in the light

I'm so ****ing two-faced

I'm sneaking through the night

There's nothing to me now

I'm not alive

You think to change me

Like to see you try

 

Because I'm so

Two Faced!

Swallowing Hate!

You Can't

See My hate!

Pity's Overrated

 

--Intro,three-by-three--

When you crash and burn

And you cry alone

Don't expect me to pity you

When your hamster dies

And the world's ****ed up

Pity won't help you though

--end intro--

Pity's overrated

Out world is built upon it

Pity's worthless garbage

I never give that ****

To all the sniv'ling whiners

Who ***** about salvation

Well I'm the lord incarnate

And I'm passing judgement

On all the little ****heads

Who think they are the 'bomb'

Who play their girls like cards

And are always running from

Their itty bitty concience

A voice inside their big heads

They're running from the justice

And heading towards the fall

Well I'm satan incarnate

Watching from below

I see them running like mad

From justice's unending flow

They're searching for some pity

An ego-booster for em all

It makes 'em feel all fluffy

And big and strong and tall

Well I'm justice incarnate

And truth, it is my sword

I cleave apart their big dreams

They're nothing but a whore

It's mental masturbation

That's what pity is

And if you indulge in that sin

The system's got you in

Now I believe in shadows

And black I think is pure

Your white lies are decieving

And pity's not the cure

So next time you reach out

For your little pity trip

Remember that it's killing

Us all with worthless ****

Brand New Day

 

It's a brand new day

But the same old play

Get out of bed

And start to pray

Get dressed in black

Fill my backpack

Look around

For things I lack

Get on in the car

Drive through dark

The end is

Still so far

Sit through school

This isn't cool

So my teacher's

A great fool

End of the work

Sarah's a jerk

Drive on home

Like a clerk

Get in to my bed

Lay down my head

And think of all

The things I said

T'was a brand new day,

The same old play

So depressing

So I pray

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Shadows Dance

 

Silent room, dark as night

Where I can watch the shadow's dance

In the candle's twirling light

I find pure creation

Strike the match and light the wick

Send the shadows jumping through

With a final guttered flick

The madness has begun

First comes Gola, spinning brightly

Twisting, turning into air

Visage of a god, quite sightly

Leader of the shadows

Second's Thoma, darkened sadness

Shade of sorrow and of fear

Landing hard among the madness

Flicker, flicker madly

Third is Luna, lady of night

Dancing like a harem girl

Leaping, jumping into flight

Daughter of the moon

Laughing Anya, friend of darkness

Born of shadows, melting light

Bow and leap across the armrest

Won't she stay awhile

Lastly I come, lord of sorrows

Seeking truth and finding none

Images of death I borrow

For my joy of song

We five dancers, flitting madly

In the room below the hall

I find peace in the dance gladly

I am at home now

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Forever

 

Look through the mirror at the gathering clouds

Demons and angels all spinnin' around

Stuck in the cyclone, forever I scream

Hurts like torture, feels like a dream

Chorus:

Forever and ever and ever again

A hell of my making, a cage built of sin

Call the police, notify my next of kin

The promise of the knife is sucking me in

 

Holding on to life with a desperate grasp

The voices in my mind torture and rasp

The walls hold me in, hold me up, hold me down

I sit on a throne with a thorny crown

 

Chorus

 

Forever(Echo X4)

Never(Echo X4)

(Very quietly)

Sever the wrist, blood on the floor

Tears in their eyes, police at the door

I slump and fall down, the puddle expands

Fading and falling down to grasping hands

 

(Loud)

 

FOREVER AND EVER!!!

FOREVER AND NEVER!!!

FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER!!!

FOREVER!!!

Cannot

 

You smile and laugh, live in your lies...

Your lovers love has long since died...

I can't stand the pain of my life...

This facade sickens my mind...

 

All you see is white in the black

All you see is gain in the lack

All you see is hope in the fall

Can't Can't Can't go on now!

I can see the Truth in the lie

I can see the death in my life

I can see the betrayal in his eyes

Won't Won't Won't Live this way!

 

A blanket of lies smothering me...

I can never be what I want to be...

This illusion is pulling me in,

I cannot avoid my sins!

 

I can see the pain in my life

I can see the hope in the knife

I can see the dark sun at night

Can't can't can't keep on now!

You can't see the betrayal in trust

You just see the love in the lust

You won't see the truth in the lie

Can't can't can't keep it going now!

 

BRIDGE

 

You cry alone, weep and wail...

The truth came alive, your trust fails...

I hold you close, show you the lies...

The madness opened up your eyes!

 

Now you see the hate in the love

Now you see the raven in the dove

Now you see the Night in the day

Lies, lies, lies all around you!

Now you see the mocking in his eyes

Now you see the lord of the flies

Now you see the end of the line

Keep, keep, keep on going now!

Got to keep going now!

King of the World

 

Holding fast,

Slowing down,

The ride has ended

Go on home

There's nothing

Here to see

Just the broken hearts

And the memories

 

She played him up,

She knocked him down,

Her smile's plastic,

Laugh an empty sound

He didn't see

The coming end

When she pushed him off

The letters she will send

 

He was king of the world for a day

Felt big and grand, what could we say

Now that she's gone he fades away

The lonely ending, hope's last ray

 

The second one,

Not much better

He perks a little,

Maybe he'll let her

In his life

In his soul

Maybe not,

Who could know

She's sleeping with

His older brother

Promise broken,

Try another

 

He was king of the world for a day

Felt big and grand, what could we say

Now she's gone, gone with Ray

A cliche ending to another May.

 

Here she comes

Down the hall

Name is Susan

Rather tall

Fairly shy

Nice to talk to

He sat with her

Stopped feeling blue

Took her out

To the movies

Then to the drink bar

For a smoothie

They were wed

Five years later

A happy ending

A lonely guy

 

He's king of the world now everyday

So big and grand what can we say

Her love is real in such a way

He'd never felt till that day

Dark Girl

 

You...

You enter into my life on a string

The spider on the web of feelings

Why must I feel this way,

The knife will remedy my pain...

 

You...

You opened yourself to me heart and soul

We are the same, my instincts say no

Though I try and fight

The onrushing night

I know that I can't right

The wrongs within my life

So why do I try

All because of you

Because of you

Because of you

Because of you

 

You came into my life,

Switched me all around

My emptiness you filled

All my secrets you found

And while you stay...

I cannot fade away...

I will stay...

Until the end of days...

 

Is this love, I hope not

or is it something I caught

But I'm tearing in two

What to do about you?

Should I run?

Should I stay?

Pray for night?

Hope for day?

End this all

Stay and play?

Kill myself?

Or say nay?

 

I'm so happy

So damn happy

When I'm with you

So damn happy...

Snowflake

 

Shaped from the tear

Of a perfect angel

Frozed in the frost

Of the winter's heart

Perfect and sublime,

Unique in all your features

I love you cause you're different

they think you are the same.

 

He was tall and bright and handsome

The image of perfection

He swept you off your feet

And carried you away

I just stood here waiting

Waiting, because I knew

He would soon come back

To throw you away

 

Now you're feeling used (pronounced you-zed)

Helpless and abandoned

I reach out of the shadows

And point you on your way

A guide to the fallen

A hope to the downtrodden

I accept nothing, back to

The shadows whence I came

 

I watch from under their bridge

spun of light and gold

the light does not shine down

upon the ditch below

So when you fall down there

Just don't cry I am with you

Dark as deepest night

Pale as winter day

 

Here it all is...tell me what you think.
