Insanity

My life has been...
Egotistically hypo-manic 
Systematic and tragic
Insanity looms like a ghost in the attic

Ive been in five point restraints
Because of my mental state
Ive been driven by fate
And the need to create

Somedays Im up, Im higher then high
So high above the birds that fly in the sky
Then I come crashing down, I cant help it but cry
At least its real, Im not living a lie

My state of mind is my state of affairs
I talk my truth but and see nothing but stares
I get to my knees and say nothing but prayers
I ask for help but nobody cares

Be Yourself

Black shiney leather sado-masochism
Goose stepping Hitler homosexual fascism
Auto-erotic asphyxiatoin
Lesbian butt plug masterbation
Two girls one cup making me throw up
A transgender surpise lifting the skirt up
Double and triple penetration
A whole new deviant sexual nation

Be yourslef
Be true to me
Be yourself
Be true to me
Necrophila
Watching Susperia
Hot candle wax
Making new trax
Veins full of love
When push comes to shove
Two girls and me
Two girls and me

An Addicts Prayer

To the light my soul entrust
The human journey that I must
Partake and find my way
Know where to go, know what to say
Learn from deeds in which I fail
To the Glory of God I hail
From the cross in which I bare
I pray my soul to God with care
Soul with body, not adverse
My disease is not my curse
But the way in which I learn
For, no longer will I yearn
For the outside to come in
Because all I need comes from within

Selfish Turned Selfless

What we struggle with
Is what we must investigate
God wants us to improve

Death At An Early Age

I come from the suburban white
Struggle and fight
Of a misfit born
To the sound of his own horn

I was six weeks on this earth
Mom had just given birth
When her husband succumed
To the cancer in his lungs

To deliver my family from pain
A savior I was named
Some pretty big shoes to fill
When I lack the courage and the will

My mothers father's all I had
When I was just a young lad
When an attack of his heart 
Had finally made us part


...to be continued...

The Chosen Ones

We are the chosen ones
Cuz we know of pain and loss
We know of highs and we know of low's
We know how to carry our cross

We've seen the world through many different lenses
Some were scary some were fun
Times were good and times were bad
But our journey has begun

Once we see our cross to bare
To carry it we must
We are chosen to know this world
Of spirit love and trust

All things are but one thing
The darkness is of the light
Once we realize who we are
We will pick our cross and fight

Once the promised land
On the horizen do we see
We go back to find those who have fallen
For that is how its meant to be

Untitled

Locked up
Inside my head...
Dont know what to do 
With this feeling of dread...

Insanity...
Look where its gotten me
Insanity...
Why cant I see

Crowded pain
Of love astray...
Dont know how to leave
But dont want to stay...

Chemicals
Are my base...
No more fear,
A momentary case...

Pumping veins
Full of lust...
I've lost the might
In God to trust...

Recovery...
I'm the only one stopping me
Insanity...
Why cant I see

Death of a Blind Man

Her hair was soft as were her eyes
Out of her beautiful lips, nothing but lies
But I was blind so very often
Untill I wound up in this couffin
Stabbed in the back heart cut in two
Her kiss left my skin dark black and cold blue

What I Want

Top ten things in my life I want
For these things continue to haunt
So here we go I start off with love
Someone to be there when push comes to shove
Next I want the pleasure to be crowned
A voice for the world of the undergrownd
Third I want an IPOD I cant afford it
Then I want sobriety, for the drug world I already explored it
Number five, I want enlightenment
To continually learn brings excitment
Six is so underrated
Keep the past and the present completly seperated
So seven must be to trust me
I want to know I can rely on my family
To be married to Shakira must be number eight
Baby if you dont want commitment at least give me a date
Number nine, I think I just want a nice car
And number ten I want to remove my scar
A scar left by my past actions
I hope you liked this I want your reactions

Live For Love

A time comes in every mans life
When a decision is to be made
"Should I go on living in this hell,
Or should I die by the blade?"

Is the pain something to sustain
Is it worth all the strife
Is it worth all the lonliness
Is salvation rife

Ive decided long ago 
To suffer through the pain
To go on living in this hell
For I have become the swain

Ive found a light through all the black
A house at the edge of the sea
A becon in this lonly land
And I know shes just for me
