With our souls aching in strain,
and our hearts drastically drained.
I feel nothing but disillusion,
in my search for a conclusion.
If tears could stain,
I would look to the rain.
In hopes that you won’t see the pain,
that pulses through my veins.
As I untangle the chain,
wrapped inside my brain.
I hope you find a way,
to wash away your disdain.

Desolation and despair,
the scent of blood in the air.
These are things that I know well,
like the fires that burn in Hell.
In a world without vision,
we are destined for collision.
If I must shout then I’ll scream,
I’ll do whatever by any means.
Know that they’ll be frightened,
if we ever become enlightened.

It’s all so draining,
but somehow I feel myself again.
I used to wonder if I’d live this long,
now all I wonder is when I’ll die.
I’m curious if the angels will sing my song,
the life of a drained man.
I am no longer afraid of myself,
I am no longer lost,
I have found myself again.
But what is the cost?

I lay here as I wither away,
It turns out the world is pretty grey.
As time goes by I can’t help but wonder,
Is it true that lighting always follows thunder?

I heard my mind yell as loud as it could,
It shook up my head so I’m not feeling good.
As time goes by I can’t help but wonder...

I’ll apologize solemnly if you let me,
this pain in my chest really upsets me.
I continue to make emends,
in hopes you’ll forgive me.
At this rate we know you’ll outlive me,
a lot of my past memories feel like regrets.
I’m sorry,
this pain in my chest really upsets me.
As I get older I begin to find happiness in things that hurt me dearly.

Your words are Art.
Like the birds, are Art.
Home is with you.

Today I am a Man,

Boots on and belt tight,
I button my shirt and act right,
The child in me has almost faded,
The mind of a man has invaded,

Today I am a Man.
