You slipped up, You ****** up, Creating that trap Made for our attention; The inter-net. You can't help but gloat That the cards are stacked, But I've got your ticket.

It's Punched
To the Earth, we mourn! Goddess Mother & Father Cosmos, How far we have fallen; How much we have let you down Though you've nurtured us And helped us to grow. We were specks On the backs of giants And we thought ourselves special! How ignorant we are, How arrogant we have become; How confusing have we shaped our existence. The shades of black made white, But the way the light shines Shows there is no difference When we are open & transparent. The shades of white made black, But the echo of the song Reminds us there's more than the wailing Of crimes against humanity being normalized again.

Cut Out All The Spiritual Crap
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, No man ought to look up But down on which he is given. Heywood, ever hear of the Trojans? Or is that thye pun On the stupidity of the common person? But, then nobility repeats it? Hey, look at me! I know my history! I'm so educated that I know better! That a coward correctly surmised That a cat may look on a king Is certainly no surprise. The more haste, the less speed; Rush-in over your head, And regret you did not faster think. Wedding is destiny, And hanging likewise. To be married to such ideals, I would rather swing. For when I gave you an inch, You took an ell. I gave you a slighting And you reached for arms. Now, you tell me; Did I say these things? One man's interpretation Is another man's insulting.

And It Just Keeps On Happening!
Have you ever had one of those moments? You know, like; when before you can begin to get a sentence in, you see the other person's eyes roll. when words of wisdom sound arrogant and cynical. when you know you're being far too critical. when your obnoxiously focused on the most simple wrinkle. when your little issues seem to flip to psychosis and drive you mental. when your own thoughts threaten to send you to a hospital. when tomorrow feels like just another obstacle. Those moments when breathing feels impossible When contemplating turns suicidal And dreaming becomes unbearable That special moment when it sets in that this doesn't feel like living, This feels more like survival No? You've never had that feeling of being out of control, Lost in a downward spiral? Where you swear, This mountain used to be a molehill... ®2024

Listen... If this goes down like the Christians are sayin'... Ain't no one getting in and god knows it That ash hole loves it He's super into punishment That and judgment Those two seem to be his favorite Bringing true enjoyment So arrogant he wrote it down, A confession in print It's obvious no pastor is oblivious, There's just a willingness, A complete lack of acknowledgment They preach benevolent All I read is maleficent All I see is a battlefront A holy deficit How he treats his creation, Love and compassion destructively absent It's an embarrassment Secondhand, none from firsthand involvement Unless you think abandonment is an accomplishment Or fraudulent is some kind of complement Yeah, I've read it I wouldn't have taken it public It's a narcissistic story of sin and atonement Punished for the failure of a first experiment Because one decided to be disobedient Now ungodly pain will accompany pregnancy, Fuuck the pregnant Punishment doesn't fit the crime, But don't question it That's how it had to be, But I don't understand that argument Does the almighty have a limit? They say no, There's nothing he can't do So, This is exactly how he CHOSE to do it And when it comes right down to it, If this shiit I hear is legit, Let's see if he can feel regret Will we Get any Apology For this kind of "heaven sent" treatment Force it to admit to all of it Even if it takes an eternity, I'll have all of eternity to do it ©2024

Descend My Pride
I tread beneath this limitless sky; this limitless sky of which I also am above. I soar high till my wings melt, keep falling; falling till I run out of breath. But I am worry-free; worry-free because I know I'll land on a fluffy bed. What just happened? What. The. Heck. Falling, until I run out of breath.

Arrogant ****
Under your gaze I was lovely Like the bright sun rising over the gray clouds You filled the sky with shining stars above me You promised me there was no doubts But now your arrogant boasting crushes me I become so insignificant and small Like a blade of grass flattened by a falling tree Now I don't recognize you at all The insults and jabs are plenty Though you search for those old stars But my night sky is black and empty As is my shrinking heart

Searching for the Stars
i am nothing if not just my mistakes, with bones. i will wear a cheap suit to your dinner party and hit on your wife by accident. sorry. im just so tired of pretending id rather just be. Confident Sad. Arrogant. Alone. when you are those things you just are. and when you want to be youre just toxic. i am green. with poison and absence of anything someone would call normal life experience. i cant tell *** from tequila but i will drink them both if offered. i thought i found heaven on the queensway, it was really just a cable boy, who wants to make music.

Beastly Cadillac
How can my eyes hunger for tormentors bodies where in my soul can I find desires for sadists Eves threw on fitted coats of Marquis de Sade borrowed his manuals and added even more pages pierced the heart of a Dove defending his nest with lethal pins And in joyous indignities with devilment aplomp they reclined and crackled in wanton doltishness He thinks of and desires us and wants to make amor with us How can a heart marinated in love truely sincere a soul ready to die rather than any harm to Eves Be mother or sister or perchance even a stranger alas in utter ********** and grotesque situation dire Come undone with healthy pristine heart ripped to pieces hung drawn and quartered and sliced in tiny morsels Like fish baits for mice and minnows or hens clucking All at the hands of Sirens who worshipped in Satan's cravens How can a soul with only the spark of Salvation aglow where it once housed his heart and enduring humanity With brimful joy and devotions in fitting measures true as all Eves where to him nowt but sisters and earth angels Now his burning blood runs cold like rivelets in the Arctic their words ring hollow and smiles shows rapiers of snakes Nothing stirs desires for all Eves now seem and look like wicked corpses Delilahs' wrecking vengeance on Samsons in wickedness supreme [email protected] rights reserved

I Don't See You That Way Anymore.......
Leaving on a world tour Where I'll be alone Surrounded by all the unknown I got no plans for coming home Oh, oh I'm not coming home Follow the road Of paved stone Concrete laid beneath my feet Yeah turn on the lights I'll hit the stage Surrounded by anarchy and rage Like an animal in a cage That's my cards well played But god I'm glad that I didn't stay In this place Leaving on a world tour Where I'll be alone Surrounded by all the unknown I got no plans for coming home Oh, oh I'm not coming home Hear the crowds roar Memories locked and stored Some that just burn to the core Never be the same person as before Run away little train From the thinking in his brain Try to break free of these chains Burnt by the flame Bound by his own shame That was the day That the monster came Leaving on a world tour Where I'll be alone Surrounded by all the unknown I got no plans for coming home Oh, oh I'm not coming home ©2018 Written By Benji James

World Tour (Not Coming Home)
Hello, hello old friend! How's the weather up there on thy lofty perch? Does it neither thunder nor rain? Do you too not experience unexpected storms that toss and tumble things about just so? Does your upturn nose not itch from the stench of your own narcissism? Do you not fear the arbitrary nature of your own will, that it should grow a life of its own and tumble you down like a potted plant from a high rise window sill ? Does your *** not hurt from how stiffly you sit? Fixed in your stance, relying solely on your own crooked opinions? Hello, hello old friend! Do your ears belie the sound of the condescension in your voice And your eyes blinded by your own pretence to hide you from yourself? Oh, no wonder you cannot see further than your nose.

Hello hello old friend!
"But the Lord called to Adam, where are you?" Adam turned his back, There is no one holier than me and the life I am. My Lord, you are a man with complex much too far indulged by the only people who have ever loved you. You were a peasant, a pauper, a campesino Left behind family for the God that left you. To answer you Lord, I am tending to my cows, my chickens, my pigs Waiting for the day you wake up and see, I was born from nature itself, not the fists of a man Too arrogant to both love and accept all the brothers and sisters, You left behind, trying to reinvent yourself.

*"In the realms of tomorrow I'll lay out my sorrow In the realms of yesterday There was nothing much to say In the realms of today I showed you the highway"* You've being too arrogant from the start And acted aimlessly to be smart You let me down in front of our friends As a result this has come to an end Yesterday you never made a call Today you show up with another doll I got your meaning of love today You change dolls every second day Soon you may realise my worth But then it will be too late ofcourse... ©sim
