The thing about the young blood
Is that it has no age to tell
Weather life has been an angel
Or a creature from a hell.
A hell which we created
Within our deepest fears,
The grass becomes intoxicated
With the alcoholics' tears.
You give up hope,
You long for dope,
Just something for the now.
But to sit and observe,
I haven't the nerve,
And I simply could not allow.

Young Blood, Red Mud.
Nobody seems to care.
Just as messy, just as new
Even demons have troubles too
And nobody seems to care.
Nobody seems to care.

They crush your dreams
To better themselves.
Given the credit
Of Santas elves.
They bar the windows,
And they lock all the doors.
They call the men deliquents,
And they label women ******.
Into this world we're thrown
In a direction without our choice.
Whats the point of speaking
When you havent got a voice.
They sit you row by row,
And they all pretend to care.
But as soon as they know your secret
All they can do is stare.
Art is for the artistans,
And the music is for the gifted.
Dont try, you'll never do it,
Anything but keep you lifted.
Before Im in the coffin
And they hammer the last nail.
I'll get out with good behavior,
And then I'll go back to jail.

Losing all the inspiration;
The reason why I try.
I need myself a mind vacation;
Don't need a plane to fly.
Here I sit without a clue;
No rhythm and no beat.
Nothing will stick without the glue;
A trick without the treat.

The art without the eisle;
The beauty without the beast.
I never thought I'd lose my mind;
My motives in the least.
Positivity isn't present;
Happiness holiday.
Good vibrations took its toll;
But misery here to stay.
Optimism should've been my friend;
Good fortune was my savior.
Negativity shall bring it to an end;
No matter my behavior.

Perhaps there is a single soul;
To bring me from my demise.
Filling up an empty hole;
From underground i'll rise.
From me to you, lets sail away;
In the tide of your ocean eyes.

I dont know where the future lies.
Im just as scared
As the rest of you guys.
I admit it,
I forget it;
The colour
Of sobriety's eyes.
No funeral
When an angel dies.

Why do the heroes
See themselves as the villain?
Why do the demons
Think they save the day by killin?
Where does the day go?
Why doesn't anyone know?

Sayin sorry
For all the wrong reasons.
Lives are changing
In a matter of seasons.
Sick of staring
At my bedrooms padded walls,
But ill be here
When society falls,
And sobriety calls.

Trying to function
Just aint in the cards
When your mind is a mess
And your body in shards.
Feelin lonely
Walking down the boulevard.
Brody Thompson Oct 2012
Losing loved ones,
Senses dying.
Given wings,
Not meant for flying.
Bonds are broken,
Tears are shed,
Incredible knowledge
Lost in your head.
A pinky promise
Never kept,
Insomniac;
Never slept.
Lives are shattered
Like pain never mattered,
Express your love,
Only flattered.
Blood is spilled,
Unfulfilled,
Love the dumb,
**** the skilled.
Drowning in
A viscous pool;
Life is but
A cruel Jewel.
Brody Thompson Oct 2012
Couldn't call me Jeckyl
Or Mr. Hyde.
Just something im used to
Day or night.
You wanted a thriller, boy
You're in for a ride.
Don't get scared now;
Stay by my side.

I remember innocent ages.
The book of youth
Torn in many pages.
Always hearing silence,
The sounds that are not real.
Without enhancing love,
How else am I supposed to feel?

Where am I going?
What side of life will I lead?
Beware the river flowing,
That's the last thing we need.

Live and let live,
Grown and learn.
Discover before
You crash and burn.
I dont wanna see
My best man die,
Haunting will happen
In the Drink of an I.
Brody Thompson Oct 2012
Sinning till we sleep,
Kids on every street,
Making friends and making love
With everyone we meet.
One with the world
Celebration field,
Feeling triumphant
Without a sword and shield.

Unfamiliar faces
Well known places,
No bat or ball required
To run all the bases.
Not enough hours
In the 24 I got.
It's only illegal
If you get caught.
Face in the grass,
Head in a cloud,
Tell the neighborhood,
It's gonna get loud.

At the hour or morning,
When the sun hits the hills,
Your body's in ruins,
And you've spent your dollar bills.
The night after chaos
Is a day of torture,
After spending a night
In the insanity orchard.
Dont remember it at all,
Dont remember what I said,
I just know it was good,
Till I woke up this morning
Halfway in my bed.
