A young man, with old eyes.
****** off metaphoric empowerment Drained from mental imbalances Constructed from symbolic injustices Surviving political malpractices Jaded mind and a jellyfish spine Land minds and a dozen dimes Days roll on this glass rock All I hear is the tick and tock Thirty three is all I read Number seven is all I need Fragmented thoughts and acquired taste Requires thought of fragmented hate Twisted tongue over a gun It's old and useless, but cool and vintage

Detach From Civil Eye Station
It all started out just running around On a playground, playing endless games, Throwing ***** at walls for hours Just to see who could catch it...first That all was so normal Eventually we all grew up, At least that’s what thought Smoking cigarettes and drinking up Just to see who could get ****** up... first That all was so normal One day not too far from now we’ll eventually be All grown up and with our own family Looking for a job with some degree we got Just to see who could be successful...first And that’s going to normal

Tag You're it
Take quiet seconds alone to ponder and to breathe Yet this silence has become nothing more then my enemy I’ve become the target Always unable to win, always under the pointiest pin Always the dimmest of lights, always the darkest of nights I’ve lost But in the end, I’ll have the only laugh Cheers to a defense mechanism perfected And to a mind frame demented Yet aren’t we all born insane? Lost and afraid, unable to communicate Only able to scream like a madman lost I’ve lost Don’t we all grow from experience which is suppose to give us that sanity Now more knowing yet more afraid, unable to communicate Only able to scream like a madman lost I’ve lost Have I missed the boat? You all got shipped off with some sort of sanity To enjoy large campuses of pure vanity While I’m left chasing whatever sanity may be here In this town that proves to be trapped with only fear And he and I can bet, that he and I have never met Yet from his absence, I hold one thing those sailors will never The beauty of change Because to accept change You must create it yourself You must master it You must tame it You must simply change Consistently constructive but constantly carefu

Mad Men
let this be a reminder to you let it be my beggar's plead these tall brick walls will never fall let us fill these empty glasses with some courage juice are we not what we've all wanted is this not what we've intended a broken bottle, the shattered glass that ripped right through us a brother pact, this blood will last all you know the truth the thing i've longed for, the things i’ve wanted all you know the truth and though her eyes say she is angry she just wants our love so let us sing, and cheer to this a brother's love, a fellow bliss let us do our thing as years they die we'll stand by our words and never fade, and never falter we're young together, we're drunk together we'll stick together, through rugged weather we’ll be old  together, still drunk together we’ll stick together, through rugged weather and never fade, and never falter

An Ode to Blood Brothers
Here is a thought for the one's left over, Not everyone would understand. The ones our teachers had counted out, The ones you see and you’re parents warned you about, "Don't be like that guy" they say. The unsatisfying, the un-welcomed, and the unknown had caught us all by surprise. So face it, we are not satisfied by where we are because we rather be at a real "place". Just face it, we do not want to meet these people because we would rather meet people with more intellect. Now face it, we do not know where we are going. We would rather have our "four years" planned out. In torture, we all ask each other, "where are you going next?" In stupidity, we all respond the same way, "um...probably .. um.” Oh the mumble of the one's who have been hung out to dry, or die All of us men and women if you can even call us that, all think of that one, The one they love and the one that had left, Which leaves us in despair. So call it what you will but this "place" This god forsaken place is, simply enough, not the same You’ll catch us as we all kid and joke saying we're happy here "Here's to our new crew" Oh the awkward fear that gives me chills day and night And it is because we wanted this, right...? So say hello to the unsatisfying Have a few shots with the un-welcomed And share that cigarette with the unknown
