Empty is my mind of colours
As I wash the walls inside me I see
Only white
A colourless colour
Missing the world
My mind on empty
Empty of life

Brushes wash and paint
Yet the white remains
Inside
Painfully hurting
Biting its way to a blur

Let me see
Let me see the colour of the ocean
Let me see the sun and the moon
Even my bitten lip cannot change this madness

So in my mind I follow the blinding
A slave to the system I paint
Painting the cracks
Patching the leaks
Holding back the colour
I battle it's beauty ..it's rage
It's wanting
Wanting me to burst
Into life

The silence deafened us
Yet we all knew the language spoken
Air so full of breeze
As waves of hands spoke their volumes

Prove enough that we were as one
Raging conversations for the muted
So in the end
Just like any other voice
The sounds became a din
So be it written

Into the four corners of my mind
Sat the monsters
Quietly sleeping
As I searched for their wake

The time to ripple was nearly upon us
Scars ready for the burst
The never ending **** of failure  
Would be haunting

So the tickle has begun
Wake my soul
Shake these bones
My talons felt thirsty

From the four corners of my mind
Dead eyes now shone
Rasping breaths devoured the stench
The wake had begun

Into I walk on this day
For my fear is with tomorrow
That tomorrow I know about
The one where I hear it all
Yet say the wrong
Place the mind
Rest the soul
Feed the earth  

That one day
Not yet
For my words need a breath
Listened too
Played and sung
To the kings and queens
That play our cards

Maybe then I will allow
My tomorrow
But it is I that still holds the ace
The trump card

The pièce de résistance
Is all mine
My tomorrow can wait
For today I will shine
Stride upon this earth
And raise a smile
For tomorrow

The Gods meant well tonight
For they ate the tastiest morsels
Drank the finest wine
And laughed at us
Below

No mountain rage or thunder strikes
No shakes under foot
No bullets fired
And the whole world was good
The whole world was good

The dice came out in a rumble to our skies
What was the bet we fear
The wine was good
Peace still wanted
No misunderstood

No killers on the streets
All pain ...all gone  
No cancer-ed angels
And the whole world was good
The whole world was good

The fallen glass fell as rain in a blizzard
Fall was out
Rage was in
The Gods meant well
A praised believe
Still they drank
Till the party fell over
And the 7 billion suffered
The bet was lost

Save us
Save our world
Save our self destruct
The Gods meant well

Didn't they!!

As you read these lines I will etch out into your mind my nothingness
See I am the words that you seek
I am the lost pages from a book that will never open
You will never know me
Or my title

My world is our world and what you see and hear
Can never be written
Can never be read
Observed ...yes
Till you forget me and my nothingness  
For then you will continue
Carry your life
Remember that you will not remember
Me or my words

My Life

See my face as I walk into the crowd
Another wasted moment  
Watch me melt away
Feel my breath
Faded
Lost into the forest of your dreams

The tasteless drink falls from my lips
My train likes to roll and sway me
This keeps me safe amongst the people
In my hidden life I feign

Smells of the earth from worn leather
I hope they fed well in their time
For now I was thirsty and my enemies
Close

The day goes on
And on

The sounds continue and the voices shout
My world is screaming
Change your life
Get of the bus
Remove that cloak
The fear is old ..the love all gone
Yet the train keeps coming
My heard is loud

Into the whispering night I stay
I like the moon glistening silver shadows
Feeding these eyes of hope
See the twinkling diamond dance and leap towards me
Feel the silence as I walk on frosted strands
Everything looks beautiful
All is fine
This new world is mine all mine
