Here I take a stand
Against all the crimes of passion
I'll make all my demands
Just keep the mob from flashin'

And here's to all the fans
Of the criminal fashion
I'll tie all of their hands
To stop all the out lashin'

This world may never be
Brought down to only ashes
This train of anarchy
Will be the one that crashes

As I give my confession
I was once like them
So let this be a lesson
And let this be the end

The end of all the madness
And all of the fatality
And families of sadness
From dealing with these casualties

While I scream into my pillow
I couldn't grasp the storm
A bold-gutted thriller
And a believer is born

Believe, no lies
Just entangled in your
Disguise
I see, you try
Just wipe the tears
From your eyes

I am this hidden place, motionless within you

Piercing your disguises, growing stale
You know, the ones you defined with trust
Why now put them to waste?
The thick and thin—right through you,
This swollen tension rises. Provisions fail.
Below the grunge, a soul of rust,
Has peeled away down to the bone
Not a sliver left to shed
Corpse identity unknown…
Your fate would soon be sealed,
In the promises shattered
Those scars will never heal,
Until you’re debtless ever after
The lesions drain the lies
Out all except your mouth,
And how they cheer in awe
Witnessing your downfall,
The flames will not subside
When you’re begging on the ground,
Don’t try to climb the walls
The blaze won’t melt their frost,
However there is one way out
But you must pay the cost.

There is always love
Burning a candle at both ends
Filling the air with hope
Melting wax slowly descends

Nothing is infinite
Forever isn't real
Just stumble upon a dream
A fiction you can feel

Take me to the sky,
Bring me to your feet and I’ll ask you why,
Take me on a hike,
Bring me far away just as far as you like,
Bury me in filth,
Let me dream in peace like the time that you killed,
Carry me away,
Bring me to the place where the pain won’t stay
Can you make it go away? Here I wait alone,
Can you turn my night to day? Only there I roam
The skies looking over can make us all colder,
The brave and the bold are the ones, who will live,
The mountains around us, the ones who have found us,
Who worshipped and crowned us are the ones that we give,
To sacrifice, we suffocate, in avarice, we congregate,
Make me wonder why,
Bring me to the ground and then to the sky,
Turn the day to night,
Blow at the sun just as much as you like,
Changing left to right,
Ready for the punch line, are you ready for the fight?

I’m not so ******* perfect
Mediocre at best
I only care about her
Don’t care about the rest
I’ll swim in seas of rage
I’ve slept in fields of sorrow
Let outside of my cage
Live only for tomorrow
And in these barren roads
I learn integrity
Although I am alone
I know who sets me free
And she is beside me
We dance to symphonies
The only air we breathe  
The one epiphany
Forever. Infinite.

don't ever think you're the best
until you've climbed a mountain
don't even waste my time
until you've drunk from my fountain
my rhythm, my rhyme
my legend, my crime
innocent as the moon is bold
magnificent as the sea is cold
you cry, you beg
you may even scream
the words pour out of your mouth
like steamy fog
it lingers, it loiters
for corrupted exploiters
tears weep and they crash
out poison and trash
and you have the nerve
to just push me away
through the black and the white
thick and thin shades of gray
you might hear my words
you teach what i preach
but just remember
my voice may be tender
and yours will subside
i'm your last contender
