A circle drawn about the dirt,
The sacred herb burning in the moonlight,
I fire in the center nice and bright,
As the night drags on, the spirits come,
They have come to join in the fun,
Till the next morning sun,
Then as the dark turns to light,
The oracle will claim their sight,
May fortune be in your favor,
And your bounty shall you savor.

Death had a vice grip over humanity,
but its lost its icy touch...
Some people claim their not afraid, or they die for a cause
We call them martyrs
But really why do they do what they do?
Do they do it for us?
Or is it for there benefit to go to the place they want
Maybe they need escape from this world
Perhaps they have been purged into darkness and can see no light in this world
Is this what we should believe in?
No, we should believe in a world where you can trust in a complete stranger
In a world where the Demons don't exist
Is this in the future?
Time is the key were just the lock...

We see our lives go day by day,
Floating away to where we can't grasp...
Non-palpable,
Until we feel that we have achieved our dreams...

We let the mistakes we've made haunt us,
Until we make them right...
It rips away at us...

But even in the bad there is your good,
You remember the faces...
The faces of the people you once loved...

You reach for them...
There a guiding light to bring you back into this world,
Out of the shadows that have absorbed you...

Your among the living again...
Thanks to the people who care for you,
The Truth is we can't live until you do...

So keep living, and we will live just the same...
A convergence of souls...
To guide the others,
From the Shadows

People don't see what your going through,
But that doesn't mean you go alone...
We will stand with you at the gates of hell if your afraid,
But don't you dare give up...
Here we are for you,
So pick your head up and look life in the eye...
Never look back just go,
We know that you feel lost in this world...
But your going to start heading back on track,
Don't let any one tell you else...
Remember were here.

Light shines through the black clouds of depression,
As the golden rays penetrate your skin you feel it,
Happiness is the cure to any sickness,
Never a better feeling when you can feel the smile,
You let your inner soul out to soar like a crow in the air,
A great aura cascades around you collapsing despair to its god-forsaken knees,
Each inexhaustible breath through your smile is its nail in a coffin,
Shielding you from the inferno yet to come,
One can only understand what its like to be happy when its been stripped from them,
So lest we remember what it truly means To Be Happy.

You have security behind your mind...
Never letting anybody close in fear of that you might get hurt...
Blocking all emotions towards other people...
This wall filled with sadness and fear like a solid concrete...

But I will chip away at this wall and bring you to this world...
With a violent concussion I will shatter this wall to bits in hope of the future...
A future where there is no need for you to be afraid...
Where you can live your life and not regret that in which you missed...

To go ever upward as the motto Excelsior is for told-
Conor Cleveland Dec 2011
Welcome to the world,
Where nothing exists,
Because it is yet to be created,

And yet it is all over-rated,
Reality is nothing to us,
Ready to take the bus,

Gotta face your fears,
You have to have faith,
Now you gotta set down all those beers,

Please just realize, You can't keep going this way a- hey,
So come on now and be apart of the bay,
Because you never know if this is your last day.

As my feelings were drifting by,
You took the time to take a hold of my heart,
We would talk for hours and hours to come,
My Mind would be blown,
For it was love at first sight,
It took me by surprise as your hand gripped my hearts wings,
I would have never expected to find love,
I thought I was destined to be alone forever,
But now I have you darling,
~So you can be mine forever~
Conor Cleveland Jun 2012
Rage has no limits, no boundaries to cross,
You make my addiction every time you catch my eye,
I have to drink to get you out of my head,
My soul burns to end you like a lightning flash,
This world may be cruel but not as cruel as you,
Its raining blades that just pierce the innocent,
Cannibalistic feelings just overdose your mind,
Now you stand tall,
Your the worst kind of villain,
You take pleasure in the hate you create,
Egotistical murders and atrocities you commit,
Now that I have the strength and thunder in my soul Ill defend myself from you,
Who are you?
I am you.
Conor Cleveland Apr 2011
In this forsaken realm we call a world...
Nothing achieved was free of blood shed,
Blood has been spilled time, and time again...
It's animosity...Its human nature-
Aggression is present in animals, though in humans too...
Let it be that I just let you know,
That the world has been covered in blood so forth since time began...
Yet stop this foolish squandering upon old tales, and Protect the Peace that is Present now... For it may not be much more-
And embrace the true meaning of life...
Religion claims holiness yet more blood has been spilled over foolish disbuts,
Let this be a remembrance to the rights of mankind before it is lost in time and Fades Away... Say good bye to the past, and Welcome the future.
