You single out an innocent child
Claiming he's a bad seed
Never given a chance to prove himself
Guidance and support is all he needs

Drugs have become the common answer
A classroom full of doped up kids
No uniqueness or originality can surmount
Shielding parents with their own eyelids

Flushing out the child's deemed impurities
Punished for something he hasn't done
Portrayed him as a problem child
Labeled him as the one

You're supposed to be supportive
Giving children hope to succeed
Instead, you ruined him at a young, tender age
Smashing his aspirations and dreams

Turning children into robots
Addicted to medication, fiends
No unique thoughts or beautiful  minds
You rob children of their being

Their innocence stolen
True thoughts hidden and unseen
Convincing them that free will is evil
With consequences obscene
Easily disposed of
In this game of Russian Roulette
A false move or faltering hand
A thought you wrongly interpret

The hammer clicks once
You've escaped death's grasp
Your life moves on
As present is now past

The shot echoes
Resounding through the halls
Life is out of reach
Before the body falls

No chance to change
The past or the now
You move through the chaos
And suddenly hit ground

Sitting and wondering
How life might have turned out
With a few different choices
Success is no doubt

You come back slowly, languidly
To the lingering voices
You've seen your eternity
Painful afterlife of your choices

The endless darkness
Lit only by furies of pain
The Bible's wrath
Has come down again

Open your book
Begin a fresh page
Your soul has been chosen
New flesh in new age

No more fire
Of earth, wind, and water
What you desire
Is societal disorder
Our sky
Another world's ocean
Our earth
Another world's hell

Our dreams
Another world's space
Where free thought
And free will dwell

Sharing a drink
We call obsession
Sharing misguided
Views and perceptions

A world lost in itself
Of its own accord
A world taken for granted
When it should be adored

A life of confusion
Terror and bliss
A life of illusion
Fear and loneliness

A future, certain
The past shows the way
For ancient revelations
Have not gone astray

A purpose, unknown
Of longing and strife
A purpose, unsatisfied
At the ending of life

A creature suppressed
Locked away in a cave
A creature unwanted
Society depraved
A night I don't want to attend
Filled with people who pretend
Pretend to be sworn enemies
Pretend to be good friends

Hidden behind a mask
Of lies and inebriation
The tension fills the room
With cruel and icy sensation

False compliments
False statements of affection
A curtain of lies hangs in between
Only to protect them
You couldn't hide it any longer
Always ahead of the game
Before you spoke a word
I already knew the name

Of the man who robbed you
Of your innocence
Stole away your childhood
Left you cold and alone
Forced you to grow up in an instant

He planted subtle lies in your head
Forced you to grow up too quick
He told you he'd love you forever
And you foolishly fell for the trick

Is five minutes of pleasure
Worth a lifetime of pain?
You say it's not his fault
Who else is there to blame?

What are you ashamed of?
Afraid to let me know?
I would have taken care of you
He's gone and left you alone

I've always been there for you
Through times thick and thin
Always put you ahead of myself
Why won't you let me in?
Blessed is the night
That conceals our identity
Blessed is the night
Such peace and serenity

Blessed is the night
Of sensations and no control
Blessed is the night
Of undying rock and roll

Blessed is the night
Where creatures come to play
Blessed is the night
Where we become the prey
Just as wide, clouded horizon
Began to fade to gray.
Kissed softly by your sweet whispers.
Presenting me with reason to stay.
Glowing fires in the hillside,
A reincarnation of forgotten dreams.
Brilliance in beauty;
Magnanimous affection soulfully gleams.
Once, I departed on a wondrous journey,
When, upon arid land I did arrive.
Finding unrivaled comfort in your heart.
Discovering everlasting solace in your eyes.
Exuding an inimitable beauty,
Radiating from supple face and glowing smile.
Surely angelic attainment of said virtues,
Bestowed upon such a divinely gorgeous child.
Offering my unfaltering love and loyalty,
Happily adorned in sweet reverie.
