The Enemy comes to
Steal, ****, and destroy
But before he plunges you
Down to the dark abyss,
Your ultimate defeat
He will cause you to, to, too, toooooooooo

----------f l a t l i n e----------

He will set a feast of lies before you where
Every sweet, delectable crumb
Is poison that will
Numb
You from your head down to your toes

The poison won't
Make your ears deaf
Or your eyes blind
It will seep in deeper in your system
And cause your brain to harden
And your heart to grow cold

It will inflict hallucinations
And bring your conclusions to distortions.
To hunger, poverty, you will say
"That happens everyday"
Injustice, greed
"Everyone does it anyway"
Pain, sorrow
"That is normal, usual"
"All is just the way it should be"
"Everything is ok"

So now you will fade to
Inaction, stagnation
And your life will end
Into mere existence
And so now you will drift
And roam
This aching, weeping world
That you've tolerated
in a

Sometimes, I let my pencil draw with my hands
keeping my eyelids open
but my eyes closed.
Sometimes, I let the road walk on my feet
keeping my hands in my pockets
and my head in the sky.
And during those times,
I see your name on my paper
and your eyes in the stars.

Rip out those feelings,
Those consuming, devouring
Emotions
Seal it in an envelope
Stuff it in a jar
Cement it in a box
Ribbon it with chains
Tie it tight
Then pay ten bucks,
Pay whatever amount,
To ship it to the Sahara
Or maybe to Alaska,
No wait!
NASA
So they can put it in spacecraft
And make it blast
Off into the deep space
Where it can drift, d r i f t ,  d  r  i  f  t
And then
CRASH and BURN
In the nuclear sun,
Exploding in violent sparks
Disintegrating into ashes
