Burrowing further Shattering a path of rubble Darkness lurks Calm storms bring trouble Escapism prevails Tearing truth apart Slithering disguised Venom floods the heart Stifled into shadow Creeping across the floor Drown amongst the rubble Arresting inward evermore

Snakes Spread Like Wildfire

Burrowing further Shattering a path of rubble Darkness lurks Calm storms bring trouble Escapism prevails Tearing truth apart Slithering disguised Venom floods the heart Stifled into shadow Creeping across the floor Drown amongst the rubble Arresting inward evermore

Trouble brews these wicked nights Dark gazes pierce the facade Hunger tells us to rip each other apart Ravenous and devoid of heart Crippled minds run this show Beating down your soul Chopping off your limbs Culling out hope with a snip and trim Can't catch what never leaves a trace Demons can't walk among us For the fate of our grubby hands Lies within our festering palms

Wicked This Way Comes

Trouble brews these wicked nights Dark gazes pierce the facade Hunger tells us to rip each other apart Ravenous and devoid of heart Crippled minds run this show Beating down your soul Chopping off your limbs Culling out hope with a snip and trim Can't catch what never leaves a trace Demons can't walk among us For the fate of our grubby hands Lies within our festering palms

Hatred flows like a mountains melted snow Cascading against these stones And ripping apart all my bones Chill seeps in deep But our demons drown slow While our souls dim their glow Can't escape this trap I've laid Frost burns through the skin Reject this life for my final sin

Freezing Cascade

Hatred flows like a mountains melted snow Cascading against these stones And ripping apart all my bones Chill seeps in deep But our demons drown slow While our souls dim their glow Can't escape this trap I've laid Frost burns through the skin Reject this life for my final sin

Demons knock so loudly Echoes scream of their intent Nightmares wrack my brain Leaving my body broken, spent Falling down the rabbit hole Tumbling forevermore No white rabbit leads the way Darker creatures hide behind this door Fixed in time We laugh and rhyme Blood seeps and pours Drowning inner cores Darkness need not defend Knocking echoes the doom The demons can't be let in When they already fill the room

An Army Awaits Within

Demons knock so loudly Echoes scream of their intent Nightmares wrack my brain Leaving my body broken, spent Falling down the rabbit hole Tumbling forevermore No white rabbit leads the way Darker creatures hide behind this door Fixed in time We laugh and rhyme Blood seeps and pours Drowning inner cores Darkness need not defend Knocking echoes the doom The demons can't be let in When they already fill the room

Scarcity has gripped our world The lack of knowledge, lack of resources, a lack of trust We hopelessly divide ourselves up Perfectly portioned for our predators We scream at injustice So we may turn away from our own shortcomings We aim to fix others And yet we leave our own hearts and minds torn asunder And for what? Don't answer that. It's a trap. Just like that new sale at Nike Or the newest superhero movie Because their only commonality: No Way Home

Echoes are filling me up Clouding my air and staining the walls Memories follow deeper into the forest Hidden in every shadow, eyes stare lifeless as a doll Stumble and turn to find a light Knowing nothing but fear and hurt I scream and fall to my knees Echoing a child at his mother's skirt Their faces twist in my mind and scream Killing me with daggers I build From the wastes of youth that litter my halls Potency more than had ever touched their wills

Let Them Go

Echoes are filling me up Clouding my air and staining the walls Memories follow deeper into the forest Hidden in every shadow, eyes stare lifeless as a doll Stumble and turn to find a light Knowing nothing but fear and hurt I scream and fall to my knees Echoing a child at his mother's skirt Their faces twist in my mind and scream Killing me with daggers I build From the wastes of youth that litter my halls Potency more than had ever touched their wills

... Breathe... Breathe... Breathe.......breathe....breathe..breatheBreatheeee Where has all my air gone? Did you steal the oxygen I so desperately need? Or has the air lost its life as you did? Nothing hides in plain sight like the broken man of yesterday, stepping through each day as if it were a doorway into the infinite of repetition. Work numbs the brain and drugs dull the pain. Words comet across the sky Bursts of flame and rage trailing behind Brilliant array of blues and greens to twist my world round and round towards the blackest pit the world has never known

Drowning in the sorrows of my fellow men Staring at their souls' dark and bitter end I come to the conclusion And have left no illusion Death makes friends when we least expect While the devil befriends all who stand ***** So rigid and so proud it makes them fall For centuries we gossip and lie and stall Until we break into little tiny pieces Shattered and broken, all breathing ceases

Tantalizing is the use of harmony Deep is the need to explain Silence is never a friend Words crash down like an autumn rain Sense is fleeting and often askew A sign could mean nothing A word might change the world Interpret each without knowing Losing a battle of truth Winning during a loss Kindness ebbs and flows Eyes painted over in a gloss

Hello, can you hear me? I sing to you from miles away While driving in my car alone Towards a newer, colder day. I never imagined silence could hurt Until the day I realized a month went by And no words had filled our conversation, Just the emptiness of space and sky. Alas, I cannot let this end. It would tear me deeper than before, It might leave me helpless and broken Crying you a river on my bathroom floor.

Is 'F' for "Friends" or "Fire?"
