#13th
From ditches, from rubble, from dungeons From false memory’s catacombs From barely legible signs of death When a startled heart from the grave reforms You will select a single date With the wind, which approached underground So you could plunge the freedom as a burning needle To the glass square of the sky “January 13th” by Leonardas Gutauskas (in english) Iš griovių iš griuvėsių iš požemių Iš klaidžios atminties katakombų Iš žūties vos įskaitomų požymių Kai širdis prisikėlus nustemba Tu atrinksi vienintelę datą Su tuo vėju kurs artinos pažeme Kad į skliauto stiklinį kvadratą Smeigtum laisvę lyg degančią adatą. „Sausio 13-oji“, Leonardas Gutauskas (in lithuanian, the original language)

“January 13th” by Leonardas Gutauskas
The 13th says that everyone is free No slavery for you, and me But something between those lines Criminality, and power lies You’re free unless convicted But the locks for these chains are fake No matter what color or race The deciding people are corporate Now you have my attention Welcome to the birth of a notion A reckoning of epic proportions Welcome to the birth a nation We’re all prisoners in a way or another I need not explain any further Brother, father, locked up in chains Walls of deception, a means to an end Now you have my attention Welcome to the birth of a notion A reckoning of epic proportions Welcome to the birth a nation How do we break free from this life? How do we run? How do we break free from these rocks? How do we run? How do we break free from this life? How do we run? How do we run? How do we run? How do we, run?

The doors creak to remind me you’re here I can’t escape, I can only run to nowhere If I try to hide, I’ll drive myself insane If I show up for you, It won’t be the same The doors creak to remind me you’re here The air is different, filled with smoke I can hardly see, hardly breathe This is truly a nightmare I feel

A Nightmare I Feel
Find yourself among the sea. (We all know you'd **** to be clean) You're dissolved memories rotting with purity Unobstructed details of a killing spree. You're ragged knots hanging in the tree Vain attempts at writing new memories. But god my god, you're too blind to see Hell is with you in your veins as you sleep. So bless me, or curse me, really Whatever's easiest for you. Your gut wrenching sorrow is getting old, too. Do me a favor Just once for me, please. Count your blessings four by four by four And with the scripture you hold to the highest degree Shout to the condemned what exactly it is that you see.

I can’t wait until tomorrow is just a date again. When it’s not a Friday night full of giggles and blushing and over-excited chatter. When I don’t see myself running around telling anyone who will listen, that I have the cutest boyfriend ever. When it’s just my friends birthday- not the night where I thought I’d smile for the rest of my life. When it no longer makes me smile- yes- It still makes me smile, even though things have changed. I can’t wait until January 13th is just that- another day.

Happy *Not* 4 Year
Paris was targeted on Friday the 13th, It's an evil incident further defaming it, Now would be bolstered the superstition, Sad...

Emergency on Friday the 13th
Today is the day A bright sunny day But a day in Autumn Yes, a day in November Perhaps a bad omen In fables and movies I was told since childhood It is the day that demons let lose from Hadies Today is the day the day that I fear 'cause twas told a bad sign to be dealing with the ill-reputed combination of Thirteen and Friday Today is the day That I will Live to prove that All such tales are made up To make human die of fear A fear that would cover up The strength and resilience From within to Look At one's glorious inner SELF Seeing that glory Demon has no choice But to retreat to Hades Today is the day A bright sunny day But a day in Autumn Yes, a day in November

Everybody's having a bad luck today. And as for me, i don't feel very nervous about it. I just wanna be strong to sucess for inspiration. Because it's a better way to save a lot of money. This is the great day for me to enjoy. It's Friday The 13th in Massachusetts and it's time for me to be safe and secure. And when spring 2016 comes, i can feel the beautiful breeze of substantial sucess. Anonymous.

Friday The 13th
I never asked to be ugly dunno why it made me so hard to like My own peers they killed me while our adult supervision got high. I had no friends when I went away to the place mom told me I had to go stay, "It's a happy place," I remember she said, "Called Camp Crystal Lake." Sounded nice enough at the time. Crystal Lake. A family fave. Nowadays, when you hear the name You don't think of a sunshiney place full of laughter and happy children You think of misfortune you think of my face and if you think of visiting, You better not stay For more than a day, Or the children will play on your grave. This is my home and I'd rather be alone, With the dead animals and my mother's bones.

Crystal Lake
Where did it start but by one little cry, one mother's love, one day she will die Trees grace the land, the water at peace Visually astounding, pleasant at ease The lake was open for summer time fun Camp Crystal Lake where it begun A boy and his mother greeted each soul, welcome my friends enjoy it all. The torment started, it lasted all season, they beheaded his mother for all the wrong reasons Emboldened with fury, deep in the lake drowned by cowards, feeling no shame Each year they returned, hearing stories of the camp the man in the mask, machete in hand Not believing the myth, what shadows do lurk no hearts will be pounding, only their blood will spurt Pre-marital *** upstairs in the cabin rolling blunts on couch, look out, he's coming Naked in the shower, Alice did fall, ice pick in hand, no scream or no crawl Squeezing your eyes out or smashing your face Ask all of the counselors at Camp Crystal Lake One hundred and fifty more victims will fall This is my place, you are not welcome at all Mother, I love you, through all of the pain Hide behind my mask, my machete does reign.

It's Friday the 13th. To night we will see a full moon... Lifes a mess but "what's new!!" Just waiting on someone real to come through.. Someone who knows how to ride true.. I know I'm a queen to be... Just looking for my king..
