Don’t ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness.
He knew it was only she whom he could possibly love He turned towards the darkness, ran from the sun For it was in loneliness where he could hide his pain That love was a trend he could never feel again And it was his love to give that was the passing trend For he had grown fond, loneliness was his friend

Fate of Those Who Know
The voices aren't around much Haven’t been for awhile Now it’s just noise Like static in my head You’d think that’d be better ‘At least I’m half-way sane’ But it is detrimental It tears away at me inside It never ends Oh, it has its moments When I think that all is quite But the most minuscule of things Causes chaos in my brain I can’t control it either It just goes on and off And thoughts that it brings on Well, they’re a breed of their own And it just keeps coming Until I satisfy its needs

Musings of a Psychopath Pt. 2
A single spark Brought about in the dark Sprung to life Bringing me light The heat upon my skin And the flames burning bright All through the night While the stars in the sky keep turning My home, so safe Brought to soot and ash Smoldering in rubble By a great serpent from the north Death from above Wings of fright All around me fire Smoke in the wind As I flee for my life I turn towards the wreckage And all that remains, A flame in the night…

A Flame in the Night
Allow me to open up my mind For it will only take a moment Just a second of your time To spin a tale Of woe and love That I know all too well For you see This mind of mine It’s really quite special But you really wouldn't know it For it’s not safe for me to show it For life For love For death For blood It’s really all the same to me And I can’t ignore my sinister deed I hear it calling Beckoning... Just for one quick killing

Musings of a Psychopath Pt. 1
All around there is hope All around there is pain All around sits a world Full of decent people All around sits a world Full of murderous fiends And what is it to me? This world that I can see This world of love and hate Life and death Of unbeknownst fate Of the rich and the poor The elite The meek All the same but never knowing What a shame I'm merely an observer And these are the things I've seen

These Things I've seen
Sent away from the familiar To a place where the different are trapped And those who are sane Quickly fall prey to madness “You can’t leave here” “No you’re stuck” “Oh you’ll be leaving soon” *No, you have to stay* The games they played Took their toll And soon I became A damaged soul

Trapped in my Mind
Liquid pain Liquid hope Without perspective It’s all the same It takes both these things to feel It takes both these things to live You can’t have one without the other Too much hope Then life becomes a dream Almost coming true But never within reach Too much pain And your soul begins to wither away Casting you into madness Fading into dust

Into Dust
Who am I? And what can I be? The potential I hold Has the power to shape me What can I do With the time I've been given To find all the answers That this universe has kept hidden Who am I But a man searching for truth To know the unknown And see the unseen Who am I And what can I be Than all that I am All that I see This universe is one with me

Who am I?
The time of my life It's the only thing I own That is out of my control The swing from the pendulum of life Tells me how my events go by Tick I'm born Tock I die But what is this for? A God with a plan Or rather nothing more Than that of a universe set forth to go on forever more Yes, the time I have is a gift to me For it is mine alone to keep And my time is always free This gift I have of Time It help's me find the truth I use it almost nonstop So it led me to you

Time is a valuable thing
On down the long winding road To a place where dragons roam Where the fantasies of children run forever free To find myself on the edge of the rabbit hole Wondering if it’s where my imagination goes A place of brave knights And alluring damsels Who find loves sweet embrace Where they live ever after in happiness Fantasies never ever die Eternity is where your imagination lies
