Tonight every cricket chirps,
His soft little sounds booming in my ears,
Along with the sizzle of a midnight Marlboro
It is here and now I feel fully alive

Nothing but myself and my thoughts
Running through my head, of love, of loss,
Laying in my bed, thinking of the cost,
Of life, and happiness
Is this how it's supposed to be?
What am I  supposed to see?
The world revolving in conflict. and violence.
I'm told to sit, and revel in global silence
While everyone won't accept my guidance
Or learn to treat each other with love and kindness
A veil of violence, causing global blindness

I'm a gentle man in a violent world
I do what I can, then maybe a little more
Everyone is so fixated on settling scores
If only we could find the kindness in humanities core
And before we fight, we think about what we're fighting for
Then we won't have to face karmas vengeful scorn
I am the lion, you are the lamb.
You're just a follower,
Comply with the man
Who makes you taste of the apple with a sour core
Once you fall in the line, You're stuck forevermore
Nevermore, will I be stuck again down at the job core
Won't be a statistic, another cubicle tyrant
Customer service "Hi, how can I help you?"
**** that, I stand defiant

We walk around our lives, blind to the corruption
that's being taught in our schools, you can't get away from it
So I've come down to the deduction, that we need to over throw our government
Cover it, it's all they ever do
Nobody see's all the lies in the news
but I do, and I may be killed for sayin' this
But Obamas got an agenda, open your eyes and be convinced
He stays on some shady ****, hiding everything
But he's tapping our phones? Where's that birth certificate?
Oh that's right, he can't declassify
All the information that we need but just pass by
Sandy Hook was a set up, I'll carry that till the day I die
Pushing gun legislation, to further his advances
Are we so blind as a nation, we can't see all the questionable answers?
We need to take our freedom back, one day at a time
We need a newfound leader that'll stand his own and hold the line
He stalks, he walks,
Underneath a cold street light,
He kills, he wills,
Her body into the river at night
He remembers, when he saw her,
The first sight,

It's ten o'clock in the evening,
When he sets out to prowl
His knifes blade is glistening,
As he listens to the hoots of the owls
he prowls, along the boardwalk of a bustling city
Prostitutes running in and out of cars, for every fifty

He picks one out, a tall blonde, in red heels
She struts down the street, safe she feels,
Little does she know, a murderer is on her trail
Lost in thought of blood spatter and entrails

She turns down an alley, heading towards home
He knows her name is sally, what she's called by other hoes
She turns, looks, and sees nothing, but deep down she knows
She turns back around, gets stabbed in the throat, blood pouring from her nose

Falling crippled to the sidewalk, She prays to God,
Asking for forgiveness, for the path she walked
Now, forever, in the ground she rots,
food for the maggots and by demons she's stalked
Just as she was in life, she is in death
Just another *****, lying in the Devil's bed.
My dishonest nature pushes people away
I'm so immature, but I'd beg you to stay
But I guess, I'll leave, and head for the come what may
With nothing but old photographs and memories of yesterday
I'm tired of writing about love,
I'm tired of writing about trust
Looking to the skies above,
Thinking about the memories of,
You and I,
Love is patient, love is blind
But why do I need, love,
When I can open my minds eye
And see a world never seen before
Envision a world of peace and no war
A world rid of the reasons our children are crying for
a world in which everyone is valued
Instead of thrown, like trash, to the floor

I'm tired of writing about change,
I'm tired of writing about space
Maybe instead of words on a screen
I can make these visions a reality
We can make the change, one person at a time
Curing the sick, healing the blind
When we all can work together,
We can achieve a global peace of mind

Change doesn't just happen,
It's caused by an event
Most often, catastrophic
But it doesn't leave a dent,
On the minds of those it didn't affect
We have ideals and values we want to protect
But we leave our kindness at war's doorstep
She wants to sing,
Pour her heart out,
To me,
feeling so lost and alone
She sings of love,
She sings of loss,
Of how she's turned,
And how she's tossed
And how she's been through this
More than enough

She looks to me for guidance,
I hold her through the night
She looks in my eyes, so,
Kiss her, I just might
A kiss that could bring us together,
From now til forever,
Or make her go back to him,
And leave my with my lonliness,
And my sins

Chop it up and grind it down so fine
sift through these few words of mine
take your time and read line by line
words entwine as the thoughts combine

it's designed to define my own mind
sometimes it's a sign of a sublime kind
it's words combined that bind my mind
it's thoughts assigned and pen inclined
She tells me these things,
She's a tease,
Makes me feel like a king,
Baby please,

I want to hear you scream,
Like you mean it,
I want to hear you scream,
Like you need it

Your body twists in pleasure,
Dripping wet,
A perfect measure,
After the sun has set
You and I, all alone
disconnect the phone,
The only thing I wanna hear right now,
Is the way you moan,
Sitting in my computer room,
Staring at a monitor that laughs in my face,
My words spilling faster than my hands can will them
To be carved into my retina,

My thoughts return to her,
She's wonderful, assured
A person far away,
Maybe on foreign shores
And I will find her before,
I die
