Loneliness is just a game,
Finding ways to lay.

Write the answers down for once
Escape impending fate.

Erase the marks upon my soul
With brilliant light and pray.

Jesus
Fingers, ET too,
A healing thought today.
Serenity spirituality beauty simple gestures positivity
The treasures of a million loves,
The times I've had are priceless.
This wave pool nears me quickly and the ocean here is iceless.

This whiskey bourbon did the trick,
For all the times but this one here,
My pirate hat and red king coat,
Won't save my life or dry these tears.

The work of an entire lifetime,
Sinking in the ocean,
All my chances spent and gone,
Im drinking in the motion.

The sun bleeds red across the sky,
My golden goblet suckled dry,
This wooden platform takes my life,
The waves and depths of shiny eyes.

I suppose,
That this is where,
The world has gone,
Beneath my stare,
My bottle shatters,
With my care,
Ill join the masses,
Pirate lair.

(He sheds his coat and strips down. The sun sparkles off of the waves and all the millions of diamond rays glisten like the treasures of history. Water begins to rush over the wooden planks down the ship to where he stands. He salutes the sky, and drops his whiskey goblet, and the roaring water currents behind him drag him to the waters.)
The sunlight seems like static.
A murmur in the attic.
Creaking cracks from studs my house
Is creepy late at night.

Unexplained pressure builds within
A motivational delusion begins,
I lay there feeling quite annoyed
And try to sleep again.

When the door begins to slam
And footsteps patter near the lamp,
And darkness seems to understand,
I wonder when Ill finally know.

This empty life and little spark,
This fadingness within my heart,
The ups and downs the endless art.
Of knowing love, alone.

My past mistakes,
My crimes and wrongs,
The others hurt,
The others gone,
Stillness haunts me all night long,
But they've moved on,
And sing me songs.
Everything,
Real life in motion.

Withered branches,
Bold and sturdy
The natural ground alive.

The sky emanates a pastel mix
Of colors to my eyes.

Magical nature,
Brilliant and vibrant,
Vivid and dark,
And colored eternal.
Imagination Materialized.
Car drive reveals my imagination of days before.
Writing the song or the dance that can clear me of pain
drowning in you every day
failure eminent searching for fearless portrayal
give me your love anyway.

Seething from hatred I've stored deep within
burning and torturing me ill begin
to write an escape from the cell where I'm bound
to everything wrong that's inside you I've found

Implicate everything concentrate hiding the truth
reactions from you in the booth
you seem to make me explode in a chamber of thought
all of the things I've been taught

hurt me betray me and leave me here dying to die
let me down slowly as i can inside
hide
the day of the died
writing this song on the side of my mind
emptiness lurks in the shadows,
it hides on the faces of strangers,
it finds you at night and it strangles your soul,
til nothing is left but a bed.

Alone and bewildered of others,
forgotten and oh so afraid,
anxiety creeps through your window,
and leaves you relieved and betrayed.

What is the meaning of nothing?
monotonous floating through life?
When everything's gone and the people are too,
where do you go in the night?
slowly moving always floating
riding slowing ever flowing
something lost
and something found
every broken piece of ground

lost and cracked and torn and dead
love and life and grace and bread
break me slowly over water
live in fear while taken for slaughter.
