Efforts in motion tell stories from the root.
These moments are fleeting because of the boot.
Its armoured and toughed and stings like a knife.
Especially when it bites into my shins during night.

But ignore the teachings and you might fall flat.
Not an easy fix to bring yourself back from that.
I’ve done it a few times and still bare the scars.
Most meanwhile end up trapped with life behind bars.

Though the evidence is thin it could be enough.
At which point your relationships can turn to rust.
Decay like fruit left out in summer sun.
You know how little those temperatures tend to be fun.

Sent on a mission to a world.
No clue as to what will be found.
Set down and push deeper in.
Only to be attacked but something.
Stripped of resources and cast down.
It feels like I’ve become nothing.
These doubts are creeping and working deep.
They exclaim I have been beat.
That I am useless and can’t prevail.
Each one of them finishes me to fail.
But I refuse and swear I’ll rise.
Lay my hands upon the prize.

Bruised and battered.
My fringes are shattered.
Back against the wall.
I will once again be standing tall.

I reach the summit and taste the chill.
Nothing compared to dread I feel.
Sinking feeling and tightening throat.
I am convinced I soon shall choke.
Lose my life and my claim.
Be left to decay as if I was nothing.
Terror grips and then my foe appears.
Filling me with all new fears.
Force them aside I manage to do.
Then the thing comes at me in a blink or two.
I defend myself and steal my resolve.
These are the problems I tend to solve.

Bruised and battered.
My fringes are shattered.
Back against the wall.
I will once again be standing tall.

Equal footing and even skill.
Neither has the edge to deliver the kill.
Still I refuse even though it does chant.
Every statement made ends in can’t.
Not words I heed or make efforts to discern.
Rather more focused on what I can learn.
Adapt my strategies and then it clicks.
I work out how to end this quick.
Executing it does stumble and shake.
My chance is open and it I do take.
Death blow delivered the body slumps.
I stand victorious cause my blood still pumps.

What is, What is…
The face…
That you never want.
To see, To see…
From me…
Cause of how you went about your…
Endless nightmare!

Ionised in a cloud of faded gas.
Based upon performance it will never last.
For the demons knocking and the angels gone,
So from this point right here there is only wrong.
And does that sound like a place to be?
No you can count but it won’t free anybody.

What is, What is…
The face…
That you never want.
To see, To see…
From me…
Cause of how you went about your…
Endless nightmare!

Spliced from two but falling down.
The continual slipping of the crown.
A piece meant to resonate but kills,
There are so many ready to apply the chills,
Feed the beast that is deep inside.
How about another fatality ride?

What is, What is…
The face…
That you never want.
To see, To see…
From me…
Cause of how you went about your…
Endless nightmare!

Gravitas sold but its only a placebo.
All of it meant to breed an alter ego.
From the masses to which its fed.
Before too long they’ll be trapped in stead.
Treading water until they are allowed to drown.
Proof is here that such is hows its going down.

What is, What is…
The face…
That you never want.
To see, To see…
From me…
Cause of how you went about your…

Stare out your window and what do you see?
For me it is stars and they are as mesmerising as can be.
What I would give to sail through the black.
And no I don’t care if there’s no coming back.
Cause space is our future so why do we fight?
Insist on multiplying issues just out of spite.
Pointless and careless it’ll kill us all.
Rather be exploring than being the husk of a thrall.

Build up your imagination and what do you get?
To you there are places which need to be visited.
I trust in your reasoning as you explain it to me.
Why don’t be construct this instead of misery?
Questions with no answers cause nobody knows.
Confusion is multiplying and it really shows.
So lets put down our weapons and violent tendencies.
And spread through the stars with their numerous galaxies.

Passion in creation is for what we should strive.
Without it our species cannot maintain our drive.
And if you doubt that is what fuels us so.
Remember the bloodshed we often resort to.
Does that look like prosperity from where you stand?
No, it looks like madness and its our ancient brand.
Its why we need to shift or be lost to the ages.
Cause at the moment we are living in suffocating cages.

I hear a voice but it speak no words.
Get more sense out of singing birds.
But the gums keep flapping like they just can’t stop.
Please, I beg of you hurry up and drop…
Cause anything is better than all these lines.
Each one should have attached big fines.
If that happened then you might first think.
Though some how I seriously doubt it.
For your importance is in your head.
Meanwhile many wish you were dead.
I wouldn’t go that far but I would agree,
Get out the office and return to obscurity.
As there is no way that you have a clue.
Show your lack of empathy daily too.
Sometimes I wonder if your a killer,
After all you certainly made the world better.
You might argue but who gives a damn?
I’ll tell you now it isn’t this man.
Cause from my view you are naught but a fraud.
Not something anyone should applaud.
But then those hyenas you call friends like to remark.
Only thing they believe in is taking stealing to heart.
A sad state of affairs is over what you preside.
So I’ll implore you its time to bow and step aside.

Practice with preachers from the years in the dark.
Your moments are fleeting without a new spark.
So rap on the doorframe and beg for reprieve.
Though watch for what magicians keep up their sleeve.

Paradise is but a state to claim.
Too many minds have gone down the drain.
Simple lie hidden amongst the masses.
None of us our holding passes.
Its why we’re always outside looking in.
Wondering if this is for what we’ve been looking.
Some say yes but I say no.
For these figures are bodies no longer living so…

Pull out the figments and cast them in piles.
What is being kept are personal files.
Means to an ends which you won’t enjoy.
The way we are treated is not unlike a child with a toy.

Do not falter and fail.
Out of this there is no prevail.
Jury rigged and fading fast.
Into this part we have been cast.
Notes on paper made to control.
That is the fews endless goal.
Its why we twitch and scream,
And get labelled as the unclean.

Paradoxical dread bathed in brains long stewed.
These are the avenues down which we are shooed.
Not a place in time but a point for beating.
Every breath you take shall start yet more cheating.

Wanna build us up,
Just to take it away.
To you,
We are…
Nobody!

Sandwiched in the mud fashioned from grime.
Sentences are fading because of all the crime.
Fractures born in fragments is what can be seen.
Every hope you have will remain nothing but a dream.

Wanna build us up,
Just to take it away.
To you,
We are…
Nobody!

Clientele of victims fed like meat into a grinder.
Execution on our knees would be much kinder.
Effortless in the scheme to strip us to bone.
Abandon and rip from us that place we do call home.

Wanna build us up,
Just to take it away.
To you,
We are…
Nobody!

Farewell.
Don’t calling this an ending.
Don’t think this a stop.
All that is happening is we’re parting from the rot.
So hold all your memories and never let go.
This separation will not be final so know…

Farewell is temporary.
Not the same as goodbye.
You can see when you wish,
Just look to the sky.
Never let voices tell you that they know most.
I am a long way from being a ghost.

We’re not all rich and you need to see,
Beleiving we are will lead to catastrophe.
Cause if you keep pushing then we’re all going broke.
Brainless theiving morons we all hope you choke.

Pity we can’t tax you like you deserve.
Maybe then your opinions you would remain in reserve.
Now stop mouthing off with claims that ‘you understand.’
If that was true you’d wouldn’t be biting off our hand.

We are limited.
Not dimwitted.
See all that you steal.
You’re always yearning to make a self-fulfilling deal.

We are the many but can’t fix your flaws.
Too busy slamming in our face all the doors.
And if you keep pushing it’ll become naught but ash.
Then from what source will you bleed all the cash?

We are limited.
Not dimwitted.
See all that you steal.
You’re always yearning to make a self-fulfilling deal.

Sick of the words filled with just lies.
If you’re not careful one day people will rise.
What will you do if that comes to pass?
Because do not think you’ll be amongst our mass.

We are limited.
Not dimwitted.
See all that you steal.
You’re always yearning to make a self-fulfilling deal.

March to the beat of thundering guns.
Disassociate from a mountain of puns.
Graft the pieces and form the puzzle.
Upon this world there remains a muzzle.
Lichen sprouting from the undergrowth.
Don’t allow them to take…

Hope from the armies of a star.
From disaster we can rebuild wide and far.

Scream in pursuit of remaining without fame.
Not a moment in time will this be a game.
Selected steps on the edifice crown.
Turn upside-down your growing frown.
Never let it steal your…

Hope from the armies of a star.
From disaster we can rebuild wide and far.
