Its to much
You're grammar isn't good enough
You should follow there rules
I to
But really, whose two say whats right or wrong
Just for fun

Press Pause for one moment
A moment for eternity
Find your light inside yourself
It's terribly clever, an expert in disguise
It hides from the storm, which...
The storm of perception
But, turn off for a moment
Put the flurry out, and as the debris settles
Your light will be seen
Be careful, you don't want it to run away
You must love it and care for it
Feed it
Not with the faults in our world
But our TRIUMPHS!
Introduce it to the other lights
And soon you will see an eternally brighter world

The world around me vanished as my voice echoed out to you
It would never reach you again
You were taken by the hands of a murderer
Too soon

It was the perfect picture
I made sure of that
Credited to the make up, the scenery, my mood perceived by me
Brand new name brand shoes and a glass of pricey *****
The planning and time that I spent
To hold my arm in full extent
I am the envy of all your dreams
The inspiration to your themes
And you can pay me back in likes
To validate my portrayed life

But the pricey ***** washes out
The truth of all my faults and doubt
For my perfect picture wasn't me
It's what I wanted you all to see
Your likes help lift me just a bit
To cover up what I can't admit
Credited by credit, it's what you don't know
So I'll keep it to myself and prepare for my next show

We say hello, thank you, you’re welcome, goodbye
We compliment each other, or agree when we’re shy
We model the perfect gentleman or gentlewoman
Marching in unison like a high school band

Then we unhitch a latch and step through a vortex
Forget who we acted like, our name and our ***
Hands on the wheel, no one else matters
Fight for position, fight until…
Crash! Bang! Drip, Drip, darkness, everything shatters

A few minutes come at a very high cost
Beat -- beat -- beat --  then lost
Our cage is what brings out our true colors
Our victories certainly somebody's dolors

Moments are precious wherever you are
Learn to find joy and peace in your car

I choose to work on this humble journey
Gold shining within reach
Reach is a decision

I can choose his path, her path
Or the true path
It lives within my core
Derived from the earth beneath my feet

It’s what was intended for us
All of us
But ignorance is a cunning trickster
It’s the engine to society

Man, woman, cannot create happiness
Happiness is what flows throughout the universe
Unlike the book you hold in your hands
But the story that is born from it

And then you realise how rich we all are
Each time you dig your toes into the sand
As you watch a powerful tide roll in
Or as a strong wind helps carry you

And so I’ve made my choice
I choose truth

I am the universe
I am you as you are me

In a dark place
Dense as the deepest violet
A spark emerges
Dancing so beautifully
Full of life
Its glow expands and retreats
Tighter and tighter
The spark tenses, suffocating by its own light
Smaller and smaller, microscopically still in space
An extreme mass, too heavy for the vacant universe

It’s bursts!
A million stars dust the canvas of nothing
Each with its own glow
Again and again
Infinitely
