The higher I go
The more things become bizarre
I don't have a lot to show
But I know I'll make it far
Even with all these scars

Everything is swell
here in hell
We are united
And we make the best of it
Not corrupted, just illuminated
A true free spirit is he
Who is not morally restricted
We do not judge
Only love

Feel no guilt
Become an outlaw
Do what thou wilt
Shall be the whole of the law
So mote it be
Society too shall see.
One ambition, one direction
A new dawn
While in front of me stands Babylon
There it stands
Ripe with perfection.
The place of sin, filled with corruption
The true place
For salvation.
Missed opportunities
Endless tragedies
Why is my life filled with such misery
I don't know who I am
Don't know what to be
I write poetry
But it isn't bringing me to victory

I'm meat-rotting at home
And can't wait to die alone
No more stress
No more worries
Just me
and the unknown
What a perfect existence
That would be.
The life that was once was has faded
Now the life before us is twisted
Nothing can stop it
Not those good-hearted
Nor to those who are soundly minded
It's set in stone
No thanks to those
Who are truly wicked.
My mind has been scarred
Soul laying in the dark
Nevermind my heart
Which is nothing
But a tragic piece of art

I've lost all sense of direction
But I'm still here and aware
Even while looking in my reflection
He's got a grin
But I can tell
He's wearing thin

The world at large is falling apart
And I've done my part
So I guess it's time to get dressed
For the upcoming end

I took it all for granted
Including my friends
But I'm glad life was good
While it lasted.
I've got a secret
Its something you must know
I don't want my throat slit
So I'll let it go, where I'll once again
Drown in sorrow
Not just today
But tomorrow too.
Dancing and singing, laughing and crying
Its the way it goes
From within the shadows

Sounds of all kinds going way up into the sky
But pay no mind
For the blind and those deprived
Will climb up high where they will thrive
Such is the great plan, the great heist
Curated by the great mastermind
The one who did not fall, but leapt
For showing the truth
To mankind.
