Children running,
through the streets.
Taking cover,
under rubble,
and the deceased.

Children cry,
and they scream.
Their parents dead,
planes overhead,
drop bombs on the city.

They have no hope,
they don't believe.
They are war torn,
and they mourn,
over the dead bodies.

Regretless bullets,
fly across the battlefield.
House destroyed,
parents dead.
Sorry children,
this is real.

The children of war,
they are no more.
The children of war.

They're homeless,
they're starving,
they're tired,
they're scared.
Bullets fill the air,
they can go nowhere.

The children,
they're crying,
bullets flying,
through the air.
And nobody cares.

Nobody cares...

War torn,
civilians mourn,
over dead childrens bodies.
The children of war,
they are no more.

It was the summer,
of 89'.
The weather was beautiful,
so fine.

The wind whispered through my window,
softly.
Kissing my face,
as it blew by.

I rolled over,
and said, "good morning".
But you weren't there,
to my surprise.

Where did I go wrong?
Can we start again?
I never meant any harm.
Is this really the end?

I searched here,
I searched there.
I searched far,
and I searched wide.

And when I finally,
found you.
There was another man,
by your side.

Where did I go wrong?
Can we start again?
I never meant any harm.
Is this really the end?

Can you give me one more chance?
I'll give you all that I am.
I'll do all I can do,
to show I still love you.

There is no telling,
just how long I have,
every second with you,
could be my last.

They say there's no answer,
to this disease,
which flows through my veins,
flows through me.

Spent the last couple days thinking,
about it all.
So this is really the end,
my final fall.

I'm sorry I have to leave you,
but this isn't the end.
I know we'll both be together,
someday again.

Why did God choose me!?
Why can't it be,
someone else!?
I can't leave my family!
Why can't it be,
someone else!?

There's no reason,
for me to die!
So why,
why,
why,
why did he,
why did he choose me!?

I don't understand why,
just give me a sign!
Why!?
Why?
Why...?

America isn't what it used to be.
What happened to the American Dream?

Now we're a country that depends on foreign oil.
Fighting wars, all on enemy soil.

Our leader's a coward,
cowards are our leaders.
And mother Earth,
just look how we treat her.

We spend money frivolously,
haven't you heard?
We even are hypocrites of our own word.

The American Dream murderers,
we are!
The American Dream murderers,
we are!

Oiled up machines stealing our jobs.
As the unemployed let out weak sobs.

We let our greed get to our heads.
And now soon we'll all be dead.

The American Dream murderers,
we are!
The American Dream murderers,
we are!
The American Dream murderers,
we are!
The American Dream murderers,
we are!

We are the ultimate murderers,
of the American Dream!

There's no light,
inside this broken heart.
Just a love,
that can never restart.

There's a place,
inside my heart that's hollow.
And it's waiting,
for you to come home.

And I know that you're out there,
somewhere.

Sleepless nights,
in an empty bed.
Thousands of,
thoughts flow through my head.

No escape,
from the pain I feel everyday.
Ever since,
you chose to walk away.

And I know that you're out there,
somewhere.

I'll wait for you forever,
my hearts wide open,
we belong together.

Just don't keep me waiting for long,
I don't even know,
what I did wrong.

Please come home,
come home.

There's no light,
inside this lonely heart.

And I know that you're out there,
somewhere.
And I know that you're out there,
somewhere.
And I know that you're out there...

God,
holds you over the pit of hell.
You have offended him,
infinitely.
Sinner!
Suffer,
this fierceness and wrath,
of Alrighty God.
You must suffer,
for,
eternity!
It is,
inexpressible,
inconceivable,
the power of God's anger.
Suffer!
Infinite,
misery.

If I keep waiting up,
will you show up,
and give me your love,
mend my broken heart.
I've been waiting out the days,
for you to come home.

It's been years now,
since I last saw,
your gorgeous face,
still hasn't been erased,
from the back of my weary mind,
just come home.

Hour by hour,
day by day,
I sit around,
and I wait.
Please remember me,
if we ever meet again.
I know when it comes to you,
I could never forget,
your beauty.

You just slipped away,
slipped out of my grasp,
into the big red sun,
and it's setting fast.

I still sit outside,
on my front porch,
every single day,
awaiting your return,
back into my heart,
come home.

Hour by hour,
day by day,
I sit around,
and I wait.
Please remember me,
if we ever meet again.
I know when it comes to you,
I could never forget,
your beauty.

No, I could never forget,
your beauty.

There one was a day,
I didn't feel pain.
There once was a day,
I enjoyed the rain.

There once was a day,
I used to feel.
There once was a day,
you used to steal my heart.

And I don't feel anymore,
and I don't feel anymore,
I don't feel anymore...

There once was a day,
I would run for fun.
There once was a day,
I enjoyed the sun.

The once was a day,
I used to believe.
There once was a day,
you used to complete me.

And I don't feel anymore,
and I don't feel...
And I don't feel anymore,
I no longer believe.

And I don't feel anymore,
and I don't feel...
And I don't feel anymore,
I no longer believe.

I no longer believe.
I no longer believe,
in you.

I was traveling down,
a long, dusty road.
Wind blowing through my hair,
I was on my own.

I saw from a distance,
he was standing there.
Running his rough hands,
through his thick white hair.

I tried to walk by him,
but he grabbed my arm.
"Hello", he said to me,
"I don't mean any harm."

Then he said...

"I have an offer,
that you can't resist.
I can make you famous,
I can make you rich.
All you need to do,
is sell me your soul...
And I'll give you all you want and more."

He stared me in the eyes,
his eyes were black as coal.
They ****** me in,
just like two black holes.

I shook his hand and said,
"Sir, you have a deal."
I started to walk away,
man that was a steal.

Before I could walk away,
he grabbed me by the arm.
"Wait one second," he said,
"you're mine from now on."

Then he said...

"I gave you an offer,
I knew you couldn't resist.
I knew you wanted fame,
I knew you wanted to be rich.
All I needed from you,
was your pathetic soul...
And now you're mine forever."

I made a deal with the Devil,
now there's no looking back.
Made a deal with the Devil,
a deadly compact.

He gave me an offer,
he knew I couldn't resist.
He knew I wanted fame,
knew I wanted to be rich.
All he needed from me,
was my pathetic soul...

Let my greed get to me,
now he has me,
forever.

I left my home with dreams to,
make something of myself.
Landed in Hollywood,
bright lights, lots of sound.

They took me in,
like a good friend.

Showed me all the ropes,
gave me riches, fame.
Messed with my head,
dug a hole, for my body.

Everyone's out to get,
you to submit.

I was a fool,
and I fell,
fell for it all.
And they didn't fall for me.
The Devil lives here,
and there's no...

Tried to go home,
and when I got there,
it didn't take long,
my addiction, it was too strong.

The drugs are out to get,
me to submit.

I was a fool,
and I fell,
fell for it all.
And they didn't fall for me.
The Devil lives inside me,
there's no...

escape.

Out,
out,
out,
I'm fallin' out...

Out,
out,
out,
I'm fallin' out of...

Out.
I'm fallin' out of reality.

I'm fallin' out,
out.
All the love.
I'm fallin' out,
out.
Was not enough.

Dark, grey, stormy nights,
with little light.

A cool, soft, whispering breeze,
with something to read.

You, here, lifting my spirits higher,
next to a warm fire.

A nice, warm, cup of tea,
with you next to me.

And I feel,
so alive,
with you,
by my side,
on this,
stormy night,
on this,
dark stormy night.

You walk around,
without making,
a single sound.

You pick me up,
and walk me to,
my bedroom.

You tuck me,
into bed,
and kiss me on the forehead.

I'm the luckiest man alive,
to have you by my side.

I believe
             that you believe
                                        that you believe
                       that they believe
                                                   what you believe
                                                         ­       and you believe
                                                  what he believes
                                                        ­                     and he believes
                                                        ­                                   what she believes
                                                        ­        and she believes
                                 what they believe
          so she believes
           what she believes
             and he believes
              what she believes
                 and they believe
                    what he believes
                                                        ­                                      and I can't believe I got a 113 bowling last night.

He passed away,
nearly three years ago today.
And it feels like he passed away yesterday.

And so I grieve,
but I do believe,
I will see him someday again.

But one day, to my surprise,
he was at my house,
in the dead of night.

Came to visit for a while,
just to show he was alive,
and doing well.
But I didn't know...

He was my friend,
from start to end.
A bond that could not be broken,
just by man.
We both shook hands.

I couldn't believe my eyes,
the way he just,
took me by surprise.

We rejoiced,
and relaxed,
and he told his jokes,
and I subtly laughed.
But I didn't know...

And I smile,
there are tears of joy,
I can't believe he's here before my eyes.

He smiles back,
wipes the tears from my eyes,
and he does what he has never done before,
he cries.

He says he loves me,
slowly hugs me,
shakes my hand again,
and says,
"goodbye bestfriend".
And that was the end.
The sun rose again.
And I slowly watched him,
as he ascended,
into heaven.

The patheticness of the human race has become rather unbearable to me.
Self image and personal wealth have become more popular than shows on daytime TV.

The average American consumes more ******* than their daily food intake.
Letting social networks become our main source of communication was our first mistake.

There is no escape from the sounds of the keyboards endlessly typing out our lies.
We think we are the almighty but every time we speak another one of our brain cells dies.

Look what we've become,
the sum of,
technology and TV.

The right to own a gun,
was fun till,
the gun was pointed at you and me.

Funny how we want to change the world but are not willing to change ourselves.
Blaming the presidents because there was no change and then retiring them to a dusty shelf.

"How many carats is her wedding ring?!", the guests ask, as if that's what a marriage is all about.
At the speed we are heading there is no doubt that we will soon die out.

Look what we've become,
the sum of,
technology and TV.

The right to own a gun,
was fun till,
the gun was pointed at you and me.

The silly nonsense of technology and TV have overrun our lives with dramatic balderdash.

We stare, hypnotized, into the ridiculous lives of those on our TV's.

The plastic ***** and plastic *******,
are not better than the rest.

Don't you know you look just as fake as the puppets on the strings.

You're not fooling anyone,
look as you melt in the sun.

But we do not realize their lies, we're the puppets on the strings.

The patheticness of the human race has become rather unbearable to me.
Self image and personal wealth have become more popular than shows on daytime TV.

Look what we've become,
the sum of,
technology and TV.

The right to own a gun,
was fun till,
the gun was pointed at you and me.

I'm freezing over,
an icy frost,
consumes me,
my mind is lost.

The ice is cold,
and thickens fast.
Memories,
they never last.

Soon the ice will melt inside my mind.
Spring is coming, but not for long,
summer brings fire.

Soon my mind,
will be encased,
in thick ice,
memories erased.

Teeth chatter,
I can't explain,
but the snow soon,
will turn to warm rain.

Soon the ice will melt inside my mind.
Spring is here, but not for long,
summer brings fire.

The ice hasn't melted and spring is here.
Summers fire will soon be coming,
I'm going crazy dear.

The ice still hasn't melted,
and summer is here.
My mind can't make up its mind,
so I live in fear.

Love is deep,
deeper than the sea,
and is as rough,
as the waves.

It has no limits,
no boundaries,
and it moves,
through you and me.

The oceans waves will tear our ship apart.
But we keep on sailing,
we knew the risks from the start.

Our sail is torn,
mast snapped in half,
but we still follow,
our charted path.

I can see,
bright skies ahead,
rest easy my love,
we are not dead.

The oceans waves will tear our ship apart.
But we keep on sailing,
we knew the risks from the start.

The sunshine will lead us to promised land.
Lead us down the right path,
take my hand.

The sunshine deceived both of us today.
The seas are still rough,
led us the wrong way.

Devouring natural resources,
is it really worth,
destroying our planet,
our mother Earth.

Machines covered in oil,
drill to the core.
We can't get enough,
always wanting more.

And if we could,
we would,
**** this planet dry,
till we all suffer and die.

Wipe the oil from your mouth,
you sick corporate machine.
You're the greediest *******,
that I've ever seen.

And your putrid smile,
how it makes me sick.
The oil that covers your hands,
will always stick.

Our world is crumbling to pieces,
to nothing.
Is it really all worth while?
If they could stop, would they?
No, they'd continue.
No one can wash away,
the sticky black residue.

Wipe the oil from your mouth,
you sick corporate machine.

Bottles all around him, half empty,
as he lies on the floor.
Feels absolutely nothing,
knows nothing because he is...

Just a boy,
losing hope,
losing faith.

He has,
no control,
of everyday.

Won't run out of beer, he's got plenty,
so he drinks some more.
Drowns himself in his dreams,
has millions of dreams because he's...

Just a boy,
on the run,
from his fate.

Because he,
can't carry,
his own weight.

Bottles all around him, empty,
as he lies dead on the floor.
Feels absolutely nothing,
knows nothing because he is...

nothing.

My mind is clear, unclear,
slipping in and out of conciousness.

Here, there; there, here,
impossible to control it.

And I'm slipping,
away, away.
Slipping,
away, away.

My minds not here,
not there,
it's everywhere,
and I can't control it.

I'll follow you, you follow me,
I'll take you everywhere.

Lead me to the sea,
we can swim in our reveries.

But I'm slipping,
away, away.
Slipping,
away, away.

When you're not here,
I fear I'm falling,
out, out, out of control.

Out, out, out, out of control.

Don't know what to do,
that's why I'm with you,
you hold me,
hold me,
together.

The president has arrived,
the creator of our demise.
Signing deals in blood, no, in oil,
all while on enemy soil.

The desert sandstorms do not lie,
they tell us of our future.
A swirling whirlwind disaster,
that will be our future.

The burden of the beast,
is carried by the weak.
No one can escape,
even the simplest fate.

There is no knowing,
just how long we have.
But I can promise you,
we won't be judged on what we had.

I see the stars, all around me.
They sparkle, gleam and shine.
All these stars, all around me.
I wish they were all mine.

Sitting in my floating capsule.
Floating around the massive Earth.
All this beauty, all around me,
makes me wonder what my life's worth.

In a universe so big,
we're so small.
Makes you wonder,
what's the meaning of it all?

I see the moon, shining bright,
full and large, perfect circle.
It may have a dark side,
but it's still beautiful.

Shooting through the atmosphere.
Back down to the Earth below.
Burning up as I fall to the Earth.
Gravity is my only foe.

In a universe so big,
we're so small.
Makes you wonder,
what's the meaning of it all?

Please take me home.
I want to go home.
I need to go home.

Please take me home.
I miss my home.
I miss being able to roam.

The stars,
they are,
my home.

Silence!
Do not move!
Do not speak!
Do not eat!
You ******** freaks!
You and your *race,
are a disgrace,
to our nation,
to the world!!
Now get down!
On your hands and knees!
You people are sick!
Like a disease!
This is the end,
for you my friend,
now crawl into,
that ******* room!
This may be against,
our constitution!
I don't ******* care!
This is my final solution!

Walking along the train tracks,
leaves rustle beneath my feet.
There's no looking back,
I'm moving on.

Earth is a pretty big place,
for two people to meet.
Feels as big as space,
yet somehow, we met.

And somehow, we stayed together,
somehow, we stayed strong.
You promised me forever,
I held on to every word.

But forever didn't last,
didn't last long at all.
Now you're the past,
and I'm moving on.

I may not be strong,
but I'm moving on.

Man searches for the key,
the key to immortality.
There is no key,
for this unbreakable lock.
To open the door,
the door to endless life,
is not possible.
Although,
there is one key.
Death.
Death is the key,
to immortality.

You brought me into this world,
suffered through all the pain.
You held me in your arms,
and you gave me a name.

You taught me how to walk,
and you taught me how to speak.
You fed me because,
I didn't know how to eat.

You taught me good manners,
so I didn't look like a fool.
You told me I was wrong,
when I broke the rules.

You volunteered at school,
you were always there.
You read me bed time stories,
only because you cared.

And all because you're the best mom,
the best you could be.
And for that I'll always love you,
for all the things you did for me.

You told me drugs were bad,
and so were cigarettes.
You told me never to use them,
and I'd be all set.

You were there when I fell down,
you were there at my worst times.
You always could tell,
what was on my mind.

You gave me all the advice,
that I'll ever need.
You taught me wrong from right,
and all in between.

You gave me all your love,
every single day.
So I devote this poem to you,
on this Mothers Day.

Because you're the best mom,
the best you could be.
And for that I always love you,
for all the things you did for me.

It's getting harder everyday,
just to find a way,
to make it through the day alive.

No one seems to see,
the pain within me,
and the silent pleas for help.

It's getting harder to believe,
that I can beat this disease,
when it has control of me,
I'm weak.

Everything I feel,
no longer feels real,
as the disease steals,
my heart.

I am just a man,
what else can I do?
The only thing that can save me,
is you.

These feelings,
that I'm feeling,
leave me confused,
feeling used.

Now I'll hang myself,
by a thread,
and if I fall down,
hang me up again.

Feelings rising,
feels like I'm falling.
Feelings rising,
up and down,
now I'm fallin'.

Pay no attention,
to my feelings,
they're just there to,
be played with.

Feelings rising,
up, I'm fallin'.
Feeling rising.

Put my life,
in the hands of God.
But it's really,
in the hands of you.
Feel the pain,
I'm going through.

Now I'll be fallin',
down, down, down.
And I'll be fallin',
my friend.

Feelings rising,
feels like I'm falling.
Feelings rising,
up and down,
now I'm fallin'.

This broken heart,
is falling apart,
and you have no clue.
The strength that you have,
what you can do.

You have the power,
to cause me pain.
Left me broken,
never the same.

You nail me to,
your wooden cross.
Throw stones at me.
You spit in my eyes,
till I can't see.

You took what was ours,
and threw it away.
Took our love,
and put it to shame.

There was a shower,
of rain today.
It gave me the power,
to throw you away.
Throw our memories away,
throw the pain away.

Do you remember when,
everything was new?
You, me, everything,
what wrong could we do?

The golden sun used to shine,
even on the darkest days.
Now that golden sun has set,
far, far away.

And the rivers of love are dried up,
into thin air.
Leaving my heart thirsty, dying,
searching for water to spare.

And the wilderness has burnt,
went up in flames.
As you continued to **** me dry,
played me like a game.

My world is burnt up, dried up, dead,
since you left me,
since you played with my head.

I know we can't see,
but we are chemically unstable.
Racing a race that we can't win.
Losing control,
we live in a fable.

But change is near,
I feel it coming.
A change is near,
I feel it coming.

The sun's setting,
on a not so bright future.
Empty minds full of empty ideas.
Others beliefs,
go in and out our ears.

But the sun will soon be rising,
on a new future.
We can change,
only if we choose to.
I will,
will you?

But change is near,
I feel it coming.
A change is near,
I feel it coming.

In an age of technology,
we can barely ******* breathe,
smothered by machine.
We don't really need,
to depend on machine to keep living.

But change is near,
I feel it coming.
A change is near,
I feel it coming.

The degression,
of my progression,
shows I'm suddenly losing steam.

This here disease,
is killing me,
and I can't fight off this cancer.

I am willing,
to fight this killing,
but will power,
ain't enough.

So I'll sit here,
and fight the fear,
of dying,
and of suffering,
through it all.
Suffering,
through it all.

My life bleeds,
as this disease,
slowly eats me whole.

From the inside,
to the outside,
there's no escape from being devoured.

So I'll sit here,
and fight the fear,
of dying,
and of suffering,
through it all.
Suffering,
through it all.

I surrender,
to the illness,
and it takes control.

I'll just lay here,
no longer fear,
dying,
because I'm gone.

Gone.
