Pre-contemplation and cutting our teeth On reading our books and ignoring our needs A jest about pain, a joke about sadness Driven by knowledge is driving to madness Never accepting the reality Of losing our grip to our insanity

On Being Pre-med...
To what end, then, will this duty be done? The passion and skill of a tireless free will Answers daily duties from dusk until dawn. Wandering freely, the soul cries for life Oh the conflicting spare moments resisting The insatiable urge for waning and wine To the revolution I say "fare the well" For I, an unbiased soldier, Could not give brood such as this any food Or fodder to feed or console her. I'll accept the fate of a life out-of-reach, Never to find or accrue Neither faith nor fame nor money, but pain; For all I desire is truth.

1) Here in the dark where rules don't exist Gravity slips my wrist to your hips And your kiss like Soma lay burned on my lips Sudden a slight, subtle physical gesture So foreign to think of it - only conjecture Alluring, your posture bent into mine first 2) Unable to think, unable to breathe Unable to reason rational reasons for such indulgence So known was he to penitence So unknown was this dream And that, it was a dream Cortisol surging, testosterone flowing, epinephrine...surely would split his mind at the seam, and end this cruel romantic dream 3) Soma to touch her Soma to feel her Nothing to know, and none left to sow Soma to see her Soma to hear her When won't it last? When will it go? Soma to think Soma to dream Forever unknowing Forever I'll be

Soma
Just there -- I can nearly see it Light from where they lie Suddenly the talking stops --trembling hands; quiet breath-- Let out the silent sigh

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance Have you lost the ability to see? You look for another to give you some cover My, I wonder who that will be.

I just wasn't made for these times I wasn't made, molded, borrowed or bought I don't consider the feelings of others And I don't walk on these shells fraught with sentimental prejudice Do you want to hear something? Do you want to hear the truth? Whose truth is truer than you and your toothless troupe? Your spineless surrogates. Your fangs are gone and your signs are up. If that be the truth, then I be in cuffs. I just wasn't made for these times A jest is a stab and a stab a statistic Whose stats stack the stabbings of someone's jest If none of the cameras cover it? I don't care about you, and that's how it should be. Why in the throes of wrought liberty shall we concede? Why in the hour at hand, with all on the line... I just wasn't made for these times.

Stealing another ****** moment - her eyes were watching All of his movements till she had to have - his body dripping Melting over all the other flaming pools will do it to you too "How do you do?" Acetylcholine failing, blaming it on ethanol Despite a dehydrogenase, he's bounding for the fall Cold, scared, and dying on a billowy soft cloud and out She takes his body to sleep the first time he was weak

Animals
I have no friends - I have no wife; An ogre in a bog. I have no love - I have no life; But ****** I've got a dog.

I've been hoping for months Hoping for years Hoping I might forget Oh, but it don't get much dumber It don't get much dumber Than trying to forget a girl when you love her
