My skin is bruised
My body abused
Your hands at faults
With torture I waltz
My soul has been used
You stand by amused
I open the door
For you to take more
The walls came down
The fire was lit
In this sea I drown
Can't seem to quit
Stay leave stay leave
Both bring misery
Live breathe live breathe
Hollow for eternity

Why does the ice
Want to melt away
Why roll the dice
With aces and eights
Why does the smoke
Want to rise high
Knowing that it won't
Ever reach the sky
Why seek laughter
In this empty shell
When we know that after
We'll end up in hell
Through my veins
My sweet morphine
I might go insane
In the morning
Oh but I don't care
Do your worst devil
Refuse I wouldn't dare
A chance to be special
I'm a unique grain
Of sand on the shore
A unique drop of rain
In a strong downpour
I'll deal with it tomorrow
Whatever the consequences
I'll rebuild in sorrow
All these broken fences

Sunlight glimmers
The birds cry
Water and earth
Both collide
Peaceful waters
Set in your ways
Time is life's father
Subject to change
Wind howls
Waves crash
The beast growls
Teeth gnash
Forever in this agony
Forever in this rain
Forever it shall not be
It is subject to change

tired legs, winded lungs
weary eyes and dry tongues
yet we go on
chasing and chasing
what, i don’t know
racing, racing
current against boat
all I’m after is what i had
whats history is not past
across the water i see green
velvet black darkness gleams
never to be had
it is not meant to be
the past is in the past
like us lost at sea

mother nature is unforgiving
with or without you always spinning
dragging you down deeper and deeper
remember when you used to be eager
map in hand leading the way
barely breathing at the end of the day
hoping wishing grasping for some
feeling like from when you were young
we all start at the top of the hill
running only on what we feel
the wick is short and the wind is strong
your fire will not burn for long
are we just brought to reality?
sentenced to live in this gallery
full of lost and forgotten dreams
hopeless still we chase the green
never to be reached, a desert mirage
mistakes and failures form a collage
a sorry thing we like to call life
spent sitting around and getting high
what more is there to do
the sands of time wear on the soul
until you are but a bottomless hole
everything drained, nothing left
used and abused a victim of theft
look out for yourself
if ever you were
taught a lesson in life
this one is sure
no one will stop, and no one will care
trampled on, no one there
a lonesome road
crowded you still walk
completely alone
with only the rock
you kick on the way
to guide you through
and keep you sane
through and through

Just one lonely pair
Of tracks in the sand
The wind whips my hair
My toes feel the sand
My throat is on fire
The worst kind of burn
Swallowed my desire
Revenge has its turn
My eyes are stinging
So bloodshot and tired
No strength, I'm leaning
Devoid of required
Certain will power
Faith purpose and drive
My mouth has gone sour
Lackluster is life
Monstrous waves crashing
Pushing me farther
The current lashing
Under the water
Will I ever reach
The water surface
Waves crash on the beach
Nobody jealous

A tendency towards
Self destruction
From thoughts and words
Seeking interruption
Anywhere anything
More hurt but more things
Nothing left the same
Carved out on my skin
Your sickly name
Buried deep within
More pain to treat pain
Distraction is a must
Call me insane
Only myself to trust

Blame me
Irrationally
Can I even blame you?
We are only machine
Built to do
Constructed for doom
Geared toward lust
Selfish not just
Hide in the shame
But all are the same
The battle forever rages
Between words and thoughts
Thoughts that are heinous
And words that are "oughts"
Hide in the shame
But all are the same
To deny your animal
Is almost criminal
When you know you lie
Or at least try
To believe you are good
In this world of darkness
But it's understood
That the black artist
Engraved and innate
Seething with hate
With love only for
The mindless carrier
Hide in the shame
But all are the same

Lately it's been so
I don't know
So many voices
Too many choices
Battles being fought
Sitting on a corner
Battles of thought
Nobody sees her
Internal vs external
Which is which
A raging inferno
With no off switch
It used to burn
But dull is the hurt
Now it is a custom
Growing accustom
What is pure
Cannot endure
It must grow black
What once was a mansion
Now a shack
Don't even mention
Turning back
Can't go back
Can't go on
So where does that leave us
In the black
Before dawn
Ashes and dust
Return we must
How soon how soon
By the next full moon
Sleep peaceful sleep
Is what we all need
We can't get there
In this miserable nowhere
Sleep sleep
Come to me
Let me breathe
Finally

Machines roaming
More cloning
Perfect droids
Being deployed
Off the assembly line
With a set time
Before self destruction
More under construction
Programmable
Flammable
Almost animal
Is there free choice?
Or follow the voice?
The largest illusion
To demonstrate power
Building on delusion
That we think it is ours
My hands have holes
In which they bore
To run the strings
To make play things
Run by shadows
Whispering powers
Hung from gallows
By deadly flowers
Usable is useful
Worn out is thrown out
Void and null
When the light goes out
Disposable, moldable
Rogues removable
Cast out into the flame
The mentally sick and lame
Underground insurgent
Hiding behind the curtain
Waiting for the time
To betray their design
And face their eminent doom
For the masses leave no room
For individuals
Pulverized and destroyed
Any short circuited droid
Maybe for the better
No longer a debtor
To the society that razed them
While trying to "save" them
