I saw a sight that I don’t believeIt can’t be real for me to conceiveJust a mirage to my eyesAn illusion of my fractured mindSo I walk across the sandDesperate for a change in landMy body weak and my soul corruptSome might want to call it justBut I just want a place to restA chanceContinue reading “Mirage”

Wrap Yourself In A Flag
Another claim about how fair we areWhile killing those who don’t obeyJust wanting them to go awayA finger on the trigger to force your agendaMoments before your next benderDrowning what you don’t agreeCovering what you love in filigreeWhile praying to the colours of your flagSickened at the burning crowdChanting for your very endJust as theContinue reading “Wrap Yourself In A Flag”
Forcing Views
You push your agenda onto all that surroundPretty sure you won’t achieve in the endOur choice, our decisionDon’t try and make us follow your missionCan’t you see it won’t end wellDon’t you get its not our willTrying to force your point is stupid as hell You say how wrong we truly seem to beWhile continuingContinue reading “Forcing Views”
Crumbling
Devious smile of torturous intentYour integrity has been spentSold the dregs to the dogsIts why you’re stuck in bogsSinking deeper until the endNo longer can you pretend Envied knife of lesser designYou are the last from this timeA relic trapped inside the flameReflecting off all the blameWrithing while locked inside the cageLying about being aContinue reading “Crumbling”
Craven
You linger behind the rocksAfraid to speak upSubvert what you believeJust to remain at easeDuck out of sightAfraid to fightWhat do you have left?Seems you gave up the bestTried you so hard to conformActing like you hadn’t been bornIts why you’re craven through and throughVery little for you to doSo you watch from afarHidden withinContinue reading “Craven”
Unhappy Ending
Ascending the spireThat lies in the mireA swamp of the damnedDrowning the landWhile the tower decaysNo getting awayLocked deep insidePrisoner up higherA princess of foolsAdorned in jewelsWaiting for the oneWho can end this runStuck in the towerChances are lowerAs the darkness spreadsA world of the deadShe sleeps awayMaybe one dayAs a knight does ascendHoping toContinue reading “Unhappy Ending”
Fate
You look to destinyAsk if you’ll be freePray to the stormsWait for the answer to comeLive for the dreamHope for somethingEven as you sitAlone with all of itA weight on your chestNo way out of thisFetching the sunYou search for oneA bright day to comeNo time for funChants to your fameProof of your shameSick ofContinue reading “Fate”
Complain Or Pain
Bring the bottle that’s full of whineKick the brick to say I’m doing fineWhat a tale to weave about yourselfPity the toast is not to good healthJust a sliver of glass beneath the nailEnough to cause me to shout and wailIt’s why the banshee never shuts upIf it did then there’d be a chance toContinue reading “Complain Or Pain”
Neural Fires
Cross off the prediction that you can still flySuch a claim did go spiraling down to dieFracture past the outer edge to what lays beyondAn area within which the world is still to comeHosting jokes that were never funny from the startGrasping at the shadow of the ever shifting heartWhile calls of memory descend intoContinue reading “Neural Fires”
No More
A knife in the backHere you go againSearching for a weaknessBetraying a friendBut too little too lateYou won’t be fulfilling that hateI’m too busy moving past itSmiling into what’s comingInvincible from your painBetter luck on the next game Kick to the teethYou refuse to be beatAiming for my dreamsBut I’m far from thisOblivious to theContinue reading “No More”
