Scars on
my soul
and body,
eyes
closed,
I leave
my skin.
Isolation
pain imparting,
tortured
are the
souls of
men.
In the
empty night
I’m flying,
I pass this
gift unto
my kin.
Inside
I feel
like dying,
light infused
with dark
within.

Anointed
by copper,
Armed with
blazing lead,
Looming over
corpses,
soaked in
****** red.

Running past
city lights
A silent cry
it’s your design
Winter’s grasp
a heart confined
The lonely pain
that haunts
my mind
****** tears fall
from my eyes
Melting dense
walls of ice
Around my heart
it’s yours tonight
Resurrected
under moonlight

Her ecstatic radiance
Rivaled the sun’s brilliance
And could set the world ablaze

Her eyes gleamed with intense heat
Desire’s fires reddened my pale flesh
As I dodged embers of dragon’s breath

Your soul is mine to reap.

The sorrow we display reflects the sympathy we have, and reflects the shattered vision of a world we will yet have. Our despair is the inverted image of our nobility.

Her purity is beyond my ken
Afflicted are the hearts of men
Truth and blood mix in my pen
Please, don’t let me fall again

The illusion of reality is melting away,
The people are apathetic
The colors are fading
The song is falling out of tune

Soon all will see the world as it truly is,
Through the eyes of the hermit
Through the hunger of the destitute
Through the songs of the widowed

They’ll finally see the world as I see it,
Stripped of emotion
Painted with faded colors
As the birds sing sad songs

I feel love
I see doves
From above
Kingdom reign

She shows love
I play tough
She shows up
In my brain

Watch her run
I’m no fun
She said “hon,
Your insane”

In the club
Drugs on us
I’m the plug
Heal your pain

Rebrand love as promiscuity
Rebrand fantasy as reality
Rebrand slavery as liberty
Rebrand greed as morality

Lord death has arrived!
Hide in your castle, Prospero!
The devil’s in disguise,
Hasn’t been seen in a week or so

When I met her I was ready to die
Ready to go quietly into the night
Without a trace, suicide in haste
But I held on just to see her face

Karmic expenses
Endless depression
Clouding my senses
Hiding possessions
Drug consequences
Hear my confessions

I can’t let my heart run away again
But it always feels so good
My love is diseased, watch her condemn
I really think that she should
Try to make it right, make amends
But I know she never would
This is why every night I ascend
Into the dark sky welcoming the end

The demiurge feeds on my primal urge
Half of the darkness in me, I purge
To my spirit, my mind is a scourge
From this corrupt world, I diverge

Nothing makes me speak,
Unless I’m moved by the unseen
Thus spake Zarathustra,
I have angels under me
The New World will be built from my philosophy

I don’t feel golden,
For my crown is heavy like lead
Some days I don’t get out of bed
And I have this voice in my head

The voice tells me to push forward
To always push forward,
For there is a destiny waiting for me
I can see it unfolding finally

Through years of pain
I called up to the voice
My tortured shouts were in vain
Because all that fell upon me was rain

That rain has since ended
The light that I’ve befriended
Has turned my dark soul to gold.

I don’t understand what the spirits are telling me
I have no interest in what these snakes are selling me
I’m sipping poison and getting lost in the melody
The psychos in charge want to give me a felony
