Alexander Montgomery Dawson  

1993 -   
There's a few things you should know about me before you read my work. First, I am a very passionate person. 99% of my poems/lyrics are based of life experiences I have been through. I started a writing about a year ago when everything in my life crashed and burned. This was one of the only ways of releasing my emotions and coping with pain and passion.

I am an artist, so I also draw, paint, make videos, and play guitar. Maybe you will laugh at this but my favorite band is Limp Bizkit. Their music has gotten me through many hardships in the past. They are what has inspired my to start writing and creating music. I met the lead singer, Fred Durst. I told him how much his music means to me and how it has helped me so much. "We have to reach the deepest darkness before we can come out into the light" he responded. I believe I have a purpose in life, and that purpose involves what I am doing right now.

Pandemonium seeps, swallows, and creeps like a crawling
Virus barreling havoc far beneath the innermost psyche
Dispatch the strike, angels discern demons alike, appalling

The flight of sparrow's circum to children below
Consumed within a thoughtless crow
All bold to make haste on an hour's race

The final shade seeps under all frontiers
A foe abandoned in fear
Passing tides in the dead of night

Shown troubled to the world's delight
Such lonesome calls to a stranger
Embark on this journey, my ranger

A girl lays by her bedside staring out across the room to window to the world. She is transfixed within herself, her soul scattered, and her heart isolated. The last tear drop slides off her still lips as she clenches her eyes shut.
She attempts to fall into sleep in hope her dreams carry her away from cruel shadows.
She is awoken by a continues thump, her toes numb and her cheeks stale from tears.
Daylight streams in trough the rugged curtains. She is briefly blinded and then stunned by an overwhelming sensation. As the hazy world around her is brought back into focus, she looks down and finds what appears to be the word "LOVE" written on the palm of her left hand. Charged with a burning passion, she jolts up and finds her footing. Through the garden, she is lost in herself. Gently, her fragile finger tips brush against ancient stone figures entwined with plantation of humble vine and flowers. She dances with an electric essence. Free from the pressures of a once unfaithful world, she has discovered a blissful universe within herself. A hazy figure reveals himself from the shadows. A servant to a well deserved cause. He steps with ease towards her, his kind eyes in pursuit of beauty. A sense of security fixes itself within the girl, she is helpless to herself.
The two converge hand in hand as they illuminate, then devolve into the suns rays.

She's got lips like spice
Eyes rolling like dice
We find common ground
From the heavens on down

Her dance strikes a fire
An essence that will not tire

Shes got a laugh so nimble
That stirs away sickness
Kissing the world with a love shy
But not simple

Starstruck, I stay rivet on her
Reluctant to wind her hand within my own
Holding firm, drifting across the sea I've grown

Tugging against a surface
The swift whispering hallow
Shaken to rehearse this
Each breath, a swallow

Raising unto clouds above
Eyes wide, stars collide
The sky casts over dove

Shattering verses divine
Ill intentions mutant into mine
Battering bones ignites a wind inside
Still overhead appears this silent white wisp

A tender heart lay beaten uneased
May I remain doubtful to claim
The chasm in which I have seized

start to the finish
dreams came to diminish
maybe today was done well
and these angel's spell made demons repel
but still I'm at the bottom
I came asking for the tools
now I got 'em

the next sunrise shadows my days
it whispers and wallows distinctly in praise
my days and nights swallow my sin
just as my hopes that seize to begin

sensual springs damned to a drought
leave me standing in fear and doubt
refusing to accept the stain on earth
no measure was weighed
not even at birth

I read you this note I have to bare
that is only real when spoken unsaid
so you'll have no words to mutter or share
settle your tongue as you take this oath
and save any further words that'll fuck us both

I looked
I saw something above the clouds
Eyes glazed
I found all I was looking for

Whoa it seems that I have found new hope
Whoa I feels as if I turned around this slope

Gracefully
Something sunk into my pores
I don't mind
It simply soothes my sores

Whoa a Oh
The water flows
Whoa a Oh
It flows

I reached
I touched the oxygen
Blood rose
It all went to my head
And all the people fled

Whoa my faith, it's questioned once again
Whoa so I've had enough
Someone else please answer whenever I say when

Merciless
The atmosphere crumbled down
So pointless
Why be the last to frown?

Whoa a Oh
But water flows
Whoa a Oh
It flows

My writer's block come back

Every time I reach out
I have my hand smacked
Spare me frustration
And prove the fact

You've walked away before
You disappeared into thick air
Leaving me blinded in pain
And I'm still in despair

At first you were real
Now your just a phony
I'm sick of the lies
So cut the baloney

Stop feeding the addiction
Get your head on straight
I want my friend back
And I don't wanna wait

You fell victim to a horrid curse
Friend or foe, I don't know whats worse
Remember to park before you reverse

In the deepest darkness
I've been spotted by the white beast
Then I decided anger is a dead end
All the air in my balloon has been released

I walk around bare skinned
Careless to my bleeding wounds
Sat nights on end
Seeking out new moons

You just throw it all away
When we could be expanding
Bleached out the paint
And left me, the last clown standing

They say "Let me live"
In soft spoken words
Asking angels to forgive

The world falls blind and deaf
Underneath a shadow of clouds
Holding ground to share my breath

They tremble and begin to fill
I rush to cradle your thoughts
So the tears feel safe to spill

Your fingers dig into my back
Embracing a place that pounds in my chest
Because pain is the last I have to lack

They scream not to let this moment go
Or fall down and crash
Like the sadness on the floor below

In a world without words
Actions always speak pure truth
Our peace lies within tunes of the morning birds

They are your eyes
Which can never lie
But never failing the task
To express a lullaby

You cut the barrier down
You came crashed through my walls again
Screaming secrets through the code of men

This time you went straight for the scars
Every word digs deeper
Forcing me weaker
Your my grim reaper

When I look to the sky
These angels pity flow through the stars
They stay locked behind cold bars

I hold my tongue behind my teeth
How much more could your anger seep?
My heart cracks and tears before I sleep
Falling deaf as my soul weeps

Yet you walk away unharmed
Keeping me torn and fully alarmed
Spitting out dust to make me choke
Taking more from me? I'm broke

I've been crushed

Again failing to hold the truth
That you kept from me in youth

Now that you've had your fun
Leave me alone
What's done is done
It's a nightmare to be your son

With myself, I'm disgusted again
I walk away from my evil doings
Afraid to hear screams as I stare in the darkness

Then again, it might be my fears that I scare
A mutual fear, I ponder
Then finding a deep peace inside

My actions take ease and slow
My lungs prove themselves strong and young

Body, mind, heart, and soul
Wound together, singing a tune
Not a blink is taken for granted

But just one fear stands everlasting
To lose my peace,
My happiness,
My love

That, I trust in God
He will not strip me from my joys

With all of me
I am forever thankful
For the gifts
Both good and bad

For each stone thrown
I hold my own
Accepting the chips taken off my shoulder
I am what life gives me

Guess that's the way my dreams break loose
A dark angel falls prey, and I seduce
It's so mysterious

Shutting my eyes to a world so distasteful
Then lifting my veneer to colors dancing in a spirit's wake
It's a path I have yet to take

Bones falling out of their rightful place
All constructing a brand new purpose far from grace

I WATCH MYSELF SHATTER

Deep booms, dripping hot vibrations
Thick fumes, slipping dead sensations

Stretching my arms out to the silver screen sky
Seeking further hope until my blood runs dry

Holding my back leaned towards the soothing light
Keeping watch for my demons, breathing terror through the night
I fear the worst of going under

With skin so fine
A scent so swift
You make gravity shift

A touch so gentle
With warmth so pure
Your the definite cure

I'm a natural cause
A recurring  case
Of a heart in need
Of an everlasting embrace

The face of a goddess
With a smile so sweet
Forces an armies retreat

Playful laughter murmured
With a quick hot kiss
That I'll always miss

I'm a burning ember
With hope for a flame
Just waiting for your claim

These waves
Splashing
Crashing

IN OUR EARS
Listening
Glistening

IN THE STARS
Shining
Blinding

IN OUR EYES
Projecting
Reflecting

IN THE SUN
Burning
Yearning

IN OUR HEARTS
Waiting
Debating

IN THE CLOUDS
Soaking
Joking

IN OUR THOUGHTS
Shouting
Sprouting

IN THE DIRT
Growing
Glowing

IN OUR DREAMS
...we're living it

Remember meĀ 
At the end of days
Sing to me
In your deepest ways

Expand us
Beyond the stars
Let's build a kingdom
And call it ours

Must you
Make me laugh
Promise me this
On our behalf

Express yourself
In a single atom
Give me reason
To stare and fathom

Marvel us
Before you sleep
Count our kisses
Instead of sheep

Bless me
When I sneeze
Calm my spirit
Keep my heart as ease

Enchant us
As new magic
Vanish it all
Anything tragic

Rest now
You've fulfilled so much
All I need
Is your gentle touch

Do you remember me?
Take a look though the screen
See the guy that wanted you
Your the answer to his dreams

A beautiful angle looked down
Saw you both
Found two lovers right there
Long ago we made an oath

We would be together
On a whole other planet
Whenever we would meet again
Never would I take it for granted

Can you feel this?
Its a sweet breath of love
I hope we feel the same
Cupids arrow didn't miss

For once it's so real
But at the same time
I almost can't believe
I can barely say how I feel

Please say your name
One more time
Words spoken so calm
I think its love but it ain't the same

This is so much more
What you offer
I can always return
Thank god I got the key to this door


And if he's not what you find
Its time to move on
Blind the hungry child
The dreams were so wrong

Are you really the one?
The girl of my dreams
The special person I know
Your eyes shine brighter than the sun

It's gotta be you
To me your perfect
Your amazing
So what am I to do?

Take you by the hand
Show you my world
Tell you my secrets
You've stepped into an unknown land

You know me better than anyone
All we did was talk
All I did was share
You seem to be the only one to care

Your the first
The only one
Odds are insane
How lucky I am, your the cure to my curse

Just when things got ugly
I looked for the light
I saw you standing there
Wondered if you had something to share

Had no idea it'd be you
Everything between us grew
I was afraid to let you know
All the things I felt

How amazing this is
To finally find you
You have all I wished for
And so much more

Still my heart beats five times faster
You've taken control, I'm no longer the master
Drive me like a crazy train
Yeah I'm crazy for you

At first I was cold
Now I'm on fire
Something about you feels so right
For love we both have a crazy appetite

Finally my heart is at home
No doctor can name this syndrome

We shuffle around
Throw our clothes to the ground
In my ear you whisper a sweet sound

Together we lay
All night we stay
Neither of us know what to say

Takes a while to find lips
Pull my hair as I hold your hips
I kiss your neck, taking gentle nips

We've been waiting so long
This is where we belong
I can feel our love is strong

As you hold me close
I felt the world slow
Everything but us froze

When our lips meet
I get knocked off my feet
So glad we met, now I'm complete

Cupids bulls eye with his dart
In touch with my heart
Nothing can rip us apart

Why cant every moment with you repeat?
You make me skip a beat
How'd your lips become so sweet?

Demons knocking at my door
I feel this strange fear
Its never been here before

I try to ignore
But they knock louder
They've taken so much
Now they want some more!

Hold down tightly on my ears
Sweating, turning red
It's the worst of my fears

But they're already in my head
I can't get em out
Not even with a shot of lead

Demons digging me out of the mud
This evil is my nature
Its in my blood

They wanna bring back the pain
Break my chains
Let me go insane

Not knowing the source
I let it all go
Feeling no remorse

Hells gates open wide
Fingertips touch feel the heat
I fear I'm already inside

Every sin is a guide
Another arrow pointing me to hell
Pulling me inside

The devil needs me, I can't fucking hide!

Another scream
Can anyone here my fear?
Still not out of this dream

What does it mean?
They call me something strange
Are they here to burn me or are they on my team?

No, its a nightmare
They only come for me
Its not that fair

Maybe I got something to share
I've been called a sick fuck
I've been called freak
Only the devil is here to care

Angles have turned their backs
They leave me to rot
Evil is all I got

I'm under the valkyries wing
The very son of evil
Pain and destruction I'll bring

Tears of fire and ash
I've seen the worst of life
I'll be the product when two worlds clash

But in the end isn't it just black and white?
No matter how you act, the world is never right

We need the good and we need the bad
It's the balance of all things, happy to mad

Now as I turn around
See the faces in the ones I ruined
The blood mixed with tears on the ground

Their eyes speak to me
I see it all
I fucked up everything
That's a guarantee

This could never be me
I wish I could be good
Look what they carved me to be

Take a look at the devil with disgrace
What a sick mother fucker
I spit in his face

Now I'm living a curse
Look what I am
It couldn't get any worse

Just kill me now
I wanna get out
Just kill me now
I wanna be free
Just kill me now
This is all I deserve
