The cretens slipping through the trees Nooses wound tight for the hangmans head The angels weep n **** their guns Fire charring the vocal strings of the innocent Comparing battle scars to shooting stars Its all in desperate wishing Desire for their fallen deeds Dragging steel shovels at their heels Claiming bragging rights for dead dreams Slow destruction of the spider webs A delicately demolished reality Those trapped at hells gates are singing sinfully.

Analogies for petty problems
Keep the cold drops in your pocket Come in handy to fake sorrowful moments Standing in a crowd creates the worst solitary confinement Wicked hearts dug up from the graveyard On pickets, bait for the hungry wayward Fog so low, hazed, evaporated into pupils Relieving the red hot, blood shot, what a clear head Carrying shovels on their backs Eat the dirt they shower on you Sand between your teeth, bleeding gums Warriors with sharp axe pix instead of guns The ravenous never sleep Blood thirsty they want their keep String em' up high and watch the angels weep

Dreary Days
A pity Edward Scissorhands was hired, To clip the Phoenix's wings Everyone applauded, Ooh-ed and Aah-ed at it While Edward sat behind the curtain Over a rusted sink he'd slit his wrists in.

Poor Edward
Twisted vines and blood stained canines Damp caves and sulfur mines Prehistoric nocturnal brain waves Caught the sun in burned out eyes The lonely pull chains, mud caked stains Singing, swinging on Saturn's sings

Dead Head
When I think of you, I still remember the first time you said that you loved me You held me timidly in the kitchen of my tiny underground apartment, We were both drunk and it was awesome, You took another gulp of your beer to calm the nerves gittering in your throat But I didn't notice, because I was in my own heaven laying my head into your chest I'd been dressed in ****** lingerie and I think at one point you snapped my thong. You told me you had something to say and I looked into your eyes just happy to be there. In a quiet voice you uttered, I think I'm falling in love with you.

Young Love
I didn't feel so conflicted till I got in the moment holdin' strong egos, like chessin' opponents who could hold out and show they're the strongest of love tryin' to hide they ever felt any but how could they when everyone's the enemy why would I trust you, when I'd do to you, what you might do to me? So cat n' mouse chase won't look ya right in the face lying to myself that I don't miss the ****** embrace why even care when its just a race for that feel good first hit when it aint found claimin rights to quit quit ******* what life? ya man I'd be the first to tell ya I've written a verse on sacrificing myself for the own good of the ******* earth but hands on the shoulders stopping the ****** from the right to shed skin they're own contraband n' now its tough everyone thinks they're the diamond on the ruff but told true to dwelling in the soul hard n gruff keepin to the sunrise, lookin to the set under nights hand guard everyone's a threat guns in the temple consider em mental for resenting the present social norm of talking to everything and everyone just to mold n conform light n dark is a misconception cuz there's lots of beautiful **** to be let in by your own definition thas what matters can't be bothered by other mad hatters perception give what you need n always be freed from the chains set in place by societies greedy ****** need and its all to god **** beautiful to the human hating anti social to admit they'd slice the life to their own sacrificial right not abandoning light but the body gifted to the sight of others that's what brings the sadness cuz from the dirt, leaves and trees is this made up ruling tyranny madness to take flight n life is just plain beautiful sadness

I tried to say I miss you, but this came out instead

If I wrote a letter to myself, I'd tell myself everything. The little and the big things, and all the in between things. The long and the short things, and all the every things. I'd say, slow down and take a breath, your treading water, your heaving chest When things get hard, purse your lips, and give the world a **** you kiss Smile on and give a wink, be yourself, dont overt think And I know you, dont think I dont Stop over analyzing and getting depressed, theres nothing for you to second guess through lost love and a broken heart, theres nothing preventing a new start And maybe that love isn't at its end, but just on pause waiting to begin again. Patience, patience its a virtue, so make progress, its just something you've got to work through So your mad huh? So what? Scream and shout and kick and fuss Dance all crazy in your room, sing and yell out of tune Laugh at yourself, and keep going Or maybe slink around at night With your backpack on and that spray can held tight Looking for the perfect place, to leave your mark, to leave your trace Feeling victorious the next day, lookin at the stencils which you lay Smilin'

Yes
When the bottles empty The trains fly past thee Homeless on the corner Eyes are so lonely Suns going down Wind brings the fields alive Trespass on the earths plains Constant water flowing like veins Stretching out like the roots from the trees Capturing the living Words spoken so softly The bottles still empty Fall passes and winter rolls Coming down like meteors The fields are smoking Burning cigarette ashes blowing Rising and falling Slow melodic refrains Seeping under the bed frame Red eyes are closing The sandman is crouched on the night stand Can you feel the rain? Warm hands around a temple Sharing the night Looking through the window Now knowing which side is which Incredible, the mind body and soul Floating in and out of foggy weather Ghosts treading through the leaves

Pretty words
Late night trying to enjoy my show I tried to convince him not to go But he came with me The whole time spewing **** about our destiny All I ******* wanted was to jam at my show He kept trying to grind on me and wouldn't let go. So I'd disappear into the pit Just to get away for a bit I wanted to turn around and punch him in the face "Jesus Christ ******* Give me some space!" So I'd smoke a cigarette Because his company? I was ******* sick of it We sat by the fire, while the show played He'd whisper in my ear about how he wanted to get laid Feeling uncomfortable. "Uh...Ok?" **I just wanted to see my ******* band play!** Decided to leave early Cuz I couldn't stand his pressure clearly He tried to kiss me And get a feel against me Pushed him away and said not today BECAUSE I JUST WANTED TO SEE THE BAND PLAY The whole way home, calling me princess **** you kid, your NOT catching my interest He'd talk about his fetish or slapping my *** Still wishing I had more cigarettes, I told him I didn't care That I wasn't going to **** him at all, anywhere What if I called you a ***** Hmmm, NOT AT ALL, **** YOU, YOU WISH Still ****** and wondering what I got myself into. **I just wanted to see the mother ******* band play** So after a ****** 30 minute drive I pulled into the lot between the lines Ok, alright, have a good night. He just sat in my car, pushing the subject On getting me upstairs, to get his **** wet Not that kinda girl, and I'm not sorry Cuz I've got a guy who's got love for me He didn't care, he took my keys and said "I'm ***** Upstairs for 5 minutes, just give me a little baby. Why am I trapped in this cliche... I didn't even get to see the band play...

I feel like I'm split in two places Think of a mirror Clean and if it's really that clear Then that's still me on the other side Splitting like the continental divide Sometimes I lean in close and look in my eyes And whisper "Are you alive inside?" Tapping on the mirror Thinking about the other side of that glass. I feel like there's a whole side of me Trapped under what I see Not trapped. Hidden
