My mind it just will not stop
It wakes me just to torture
From now to then up and down
The past becomes the future

I never seem to get a break
From dusk to dawn I tumble
I walk within the morning mist
My mind forever mumbles

It always seems I’m searching
For a place that I can hide
But never can I run away
From self voices deep inside

My happiness is locked away
In the darkest of the night
I chip away unendingly
To bring it to the light

I woke upon a moonlit night
The stars seemed never ending
A slight breeze blew across my face
I sighed and then imagined

I wonder if you gaze upon
The same stars that I see
I wonder if you look above
And sometimes, Think of me

Sometimes it feels like you are here
Or maybe I am there
Even darkened stormy days
I feel we are together

As days go by I think of you
And wonder where you are
I stare upon the moonlit sky
And wish upon a star

I dream of being with you
Till that day I walk alone
With heavy heart and cloudy eyes
Awaiting your return

The shadows cast
A somber glow
The sounds drift
Into silence

The air hangs
Heavy, Hauntingly
My heart skips
With excitement

The moon shines
Bright upon the scene
I feel as one
The dark and me

A creature’s howl
Cuts through the air
My eyes reflect
An eerie tale

As clouds obscure
The winter moon
The wind doth play
Unholy tunes

A window shows
Me many things
As I look out
It stares back in

An icy frost
Morning dew
A summer breeze
I think of you

The nighttime stars
Destroyed at dawn
Leaves of fall
A violent storm

A purple sky
The sun at noon
Reflections of
The autumn moon

The heavy rain
And rolling fog
A rainbow smiles
To end it all

I don't know why I do the things I do
It makes me wonder am I really in control
Or just a puppet falling under
Someone else's evil spell then I wake up from the screaming
Saying how the hell just did I get away from all the dreaming
About the end of the beginning or the start of something new
Cuz I cant tell if its me or if its really only you
Who says it first then makes it last until the sun comes up again
And then the moon it takes control until I cannot comprehend
Then I'm right back where I started then I have to start again
Without a reason or an answer only thoughts are closing in
Until I have no where to run and hide I break from deep within
As it snaps my final thread of hope but still I'm glad that its the END

I went to where
I shouldn’t go
I went there
Even though I know

The grass was sweeter
So it seemed
But the other side
Hides in deceit

I traveled over
No way home
Illusions gone
Now all alone

The painful truth
Is now revealed
With flesh is sin
And hell is real

As sweeter taste
Of dreams subside
I  savor only
Sour times

Again regret
I must endure
Self-broken
Heart forevermore

The inquiry still
Puzzle me
Again I ask
How can this be

How many times
I’ve been a fool
I’ve drank upon
This poison pool

I see no ending
To this pain
I’ve lost all hope
Lost all refrain

OIL
Gleaming chrome
Reflecting skin
Revving up
Climb on in

Leather seats
Lay Em back
Open wide
Commence attack

Engine screaming
Round the turn
Oil and sweat
Bodies’ burn

Pistons thrusting
Up and down
Primal screams
Rumbling sounds

Friction building
Perfect time
Checkered flag
Cross the line
