There is danger down on the edge of town Fire on the horizon it's scorchin' the ground Hoards of unrest as people pass the blame Who's the real culprit at the top of the chain The burning sunset spills across the rot of the land While the deceiving evil doer licks blood from his  hands Greed riddled bombs fall from dead skies Blanketing the poor, warm tears swell in their eyes Oil soaked hills burn down through their valleys While war torn screams ring out from all around me The milky white sap is scraped from the flowers Then sold in the streets as ****** powder   Junkies fumble over spoons with needles in their hand While the money is filtered to rulers of land On with the show the director he screams While the masses consume garbage projected on to screens I sit motionless and stare at the wall As the prison door slams shut I wonder how long How long  will it be till I'm back on the streets With a dagger in my hand and blood on my feel

Same as it ever was
Shadows crawl against the fade of the sunlight on the window payne. Damp night with a warm breeze the darkness it consumes me. Layin still and prayin for sleep but my mind is on fire ablaze in the sheets. The sun cuts a slit through the leaves on a tree. Burns through the curtains and incinerates me. Sunshine on the high side, inside feelin run down. Dim light in a ****** eye. Monday morning comin down. Rundown from the comedown of flyin, sundown comes the dread of tryin. Thread the needle just to sew up the need, steady feelin deep like the sea. Maybe freedoms just a state of mind, rippin, tearin, flyin down the line. Soarin through the wind on a hope and a whish. Headed down the ridge on a prayer and a whim. Sunshine in a dry time, landslide on the way down. Dim light in a ****** eye. Monday morning comin down. Well baby, we have been up for a ***** age, them long nights we had no escape. All day we would just wait, and wait, for a wild nights that would last for days. But honey It's touchdown from a long flight, we ain't slept in our whole lives I'm a train wreck, and a car crash. I'm comin down and I'm not alright I got sunshine in my eyes, inside I feel so low down when I see that dim light in a ****** eye. I know it's Monday morning and we're fallin apart.

Sunshine in my eye
Out walkin in the moon light, out away from the fire light. Feelin kinda bored with life, wonder if there's more to life. Thinkin if the time was right, how to play my cards just right. It was a starry night, you should have seen the stars that night. It was marvelous, as I stood there starved of breath. It was hard to catch, but otherwise it was marvelous.

In awe
We've got to free the others Now before too long It's been too long Far too long Are you willing to pay the cost? It's time to tear down the structure Take down these power driven mother ******* Lets make em' pay Before it's too late We've played their game A game that's no fun So tear down the walls And burry the skum We've got to free the others.

Freedoms mother
Here comes the sun to set now burning fire in the sky. As the sunlight bleeds away from here, the shadows come alive. Ensnared by the nimble night where the devil himself does hail. He was blinded by the searing night, where darkness does prevail. The moon hung low, but stakes held high, he hungered for the solution. In that moment he did atone, and was given absolution. The day then did ignite, and was ushered in by morning wind. As the shadows bleed clear in here, the sunlight filters in. He seen the world for what it was, not just shifting winds. And tasted the morning air so sweet swimming against his skin. Then and there he heard the voice, who absolved him of his sin. The strings are tuned to perfection and the music begins.

descending transcendance
This is hungry country, one notch above hell. He said, as he stepped out in to the wind, before the darkness fell. And again came the long red sunset,but no moon rose up in the night. I looked out in to the darkness beyond where flames could fight. Past the fire was nothing, nothing but stillness and cold. I dreamt of warmth from the suns ascent, but woke before the night did fold.

Dirt farmer
On the brink of a breakdown, and armed to the teeth. He packed up the provisions, and headed for the street. Readying for resistance with blood letting on his mind. That's when the series of events began to unwind.                                      Welcome to the killing floor                                      The band it did sing.                                      Bring along your loved ones                                      For it's the falling of the king. He has taken all precautions in the exacting of his revenge. He will follow his thoughtful plan through the bitter ******* end. We will burry them in fault lines that fracture to the core. Enough with all the bawking, let's settle this old score.                          Welcome to the killing floor.                           We're so glad you could attend.                           Come gather your belongings                            For it's the beginning of the end. Bathing in the carnage, the taste of vengeance on his breath. One by one they took the look in to the eyes of death. and one by one their corpses were carted from the ring. It's a **** calamity, you could hear the angles sing.     Welcome to the killing floor.     Runnin' red with blood     Rising to the rafters     Filling with the floods.

I just flew the blue bird, chained like a bandit out of hell. feelin' awfully down but there ain't a soul to tell. My lady love she left this place, went belly up and blue. she's a goner with the castaways, what a useless way to loose. She was a torcherous deceiver born from burning waste. like a feather in the gutter, she floated down my way. I knew it was all bad, could smell the trouble on her kiss. But there I was, lookin' for more, as that serpent gave a hiss. Couldn't no wild horse or the hounds of hell drag me. From ridin' those ol' rails of love, her and I were meant to be. We set out searching for our paradise on them icy seas. But got lost among the poppy fields, higher than redwood trees. We drifted on, and danced along, a riddler she became. that crazy night under diamond light, in the green gorge, our love was made. I doubled down, and paid the price, but nothing with us changed This I'm sure you know, my friend, no one wins this game. I knew this to be true, and did slip and slide away. Gone along while the song birds sang, and dawn became the day. But she didn't see that mornings glory falling with the dew. She had already came and went, belly up and blue.

The Sun did do
Risking life and limb , like there ain't no tomorrow Doing reprehensible acts on condemnable terms Was catagoricaly enjoyable In some folks opinion,but Baby it's ok I guess If you would ask me Its ok if you would ask me On a cold calm morning in the great white north All adulterated and cooking up a scheme. We sat dissecting our minds Spun and interlaced We were entwined with more than we could dream. But Baby It's ok I guess Its ok if you would ask me Full of flying colors we were blown to kingdom come. Conceived from a dream Born Burning, higher, wider,and brighter than the sun Struggling just to survive the mess ,but Baby it's ok I guess If you would ask me who was there. With an ear piercing bang we watched as the fully fueled fire, flared, scorching everything that was, every single  hide and hair. we found ourselves standing in the embers all alone everything around us had gone on along for home.

With flying colors
This is the Canyon lands Can you feel it man? Dawn's early promise to lend you her hand. Awake from the cave from the rubble you climb. Down the lonely path to the river of time. This is the Canyon lands far from the thought Plateau. Deep down in that crevasse where the warming fires glow. Where the canyon walls climb to the cheeks of the sky. The sun she peaks in from time to time. This is the canyon land Where the River she winds. Cut down deep by her flowing design. Through the valley she runs away from the caves. On a long from our shelter to a place that we crave. This is the Canyon Land but all we want is more. To travel the river of time set sail from our Shores. Slide along the river to where the canyon meets the sea. Float on from that crevasse to Eternity. This is the canyon land from where we took the plunge. In to her cooling hands flowing toward the sun. To divide and conquer explore the high seas. Gain, grab, and get more than we can dream. This Is The Place To Where the River Flows and the canyon meets the sea. Plastered form our being until eternity. Something Beyond this miserable cage that we live in. and the sky opens up to give all she has to give Where the sky opens up to give all she has to give.
