This is the first day of your worst nightmare.
Can you fall asleep tonight?
Tomorrow dreams might exist..
But tonight, we lay in fright.
Waiting for an answer,
But no sign will come to you.
Waiting for it all to end..
One simple deed will do.
Once we were united -
City, State and all...
But now the greed and corruption
Have made all of mankind fall.

Pleasure trips go far into the world of sin..
They leave me distant and keep me confined;
Desperation hiding within.

Blinded by what life really is, isolated behind a self-made wall
I can remember the feelings of love and joy,  but only as flashes and
then they fall.

The other side, the other world, my sweetest death;
Perfectly still in a twisted way.
Lifting me to the fantasy that makes me want to stay.
The ultimate game,the tragic choice, my sweetest death.

Emotions imprison my soul, as if in a state of shock.
My body is trembling with alien sensations with no end in sight.
Throbbing pain that once was love, bruises and crushes my heart.
Leaves me utterly alone with memories to torment the eternal night.

The overpowering struggle leaves me no other choice--
They try to manipulate me, but I refuse to hear their voice.
The flip side, the dangerous way; sometimes sinful deathy.
Seeing just a moment of the past, trying to catch my breath.

Lying adrift a cloud of light, drifting to the stars; its all that's left
The ultimate game, the tragic choice, my sweetest death.

Promise me that you'll be here when I wake up from my death.
Promise me that you'll still love me when it's time for my rebirth.
Grasp my cold, limp hands as I lay there lifeless.?
Don't find someone else to occupy your time, your heart...
And in my death, the distance will only make our love grow.As we wait for the day to arrive, live patient with the violence and corruption.
For when the day does finally come; it will bring us such glorious satisfaction.
And as we bond together in a lifeless form
Like the ocean meeting the shore.  
We will have an eternity to be together again
To share our passion evenmore.

Reality is not what it seems.
Changing colors and often dreams.
It makes us see what is not there.
It tries to make us too aware.
Beneath the glory, behind the scenes....

It's stripping us of what life really means.

A palisade of colors dance through the depraved glass.
Tormenting me with the thought of tranquility.
The world is overflowing with the hostility of humanity.
The environment is decaying rapidly.

I gaze out into a nation that I don't want to know.
Politics, persuasion and hushed discrimination.
So, I struggle to alter just one person's ways--
No other solution or explanation.

The government manipulate everyone
Like puppets on strings..
We just protest and go on -
Another one of life's blasphemous things.

An alternate plan, a life of love and peace.
We dream of ending all the power of sovereignty
But until deceit and corruption ends-
This fantasy will never become our reality.

Like the surging wwwaves
Of an angry ocean..
My feelings are the same.

Wanting nothing better
Than to be swept away
By one of those waves.

.... And if by chance,
Under a wave I'll plunge
Beneath the sea.....
Clutching onto my last breath, gasping.

Knowing my existence on earth has ended
Trusting the spirit to unite me with the beginning
To answer every question I've ever wondered
Billowing in the wind like a fresh breeze.

Knowing my voice will never be heard again....
Only the brief murmuring that can only be heard...

....above the sea

Pain is misery.
It sounds like the shrieking I'll be doing tomorrow.
The odor is of decrepit wintry must.
Salty tears fill my mouth, I can no longer trust.
It feels so frightening that it could be no other, than my pain.
Misery is pain.
thoughts, critiques, anything... ?
