Doggie Lullaby

Hush little doggie don't say a word
Daddys gonna buy you a new bird
And if that annoying bird don't sing
Daddys not gonna buy you another thing
Look daddys got your ball
Better come when he call
Don't you give me those sad eyes
Just to get food they tell lies
So I keep rubbing your belly
I know it might seem silly
But you close your eyes and fall asleep
Right on top of me you sink in so deep

Light In Dark

You twisted and diseased creature 
Deceitiful little lies your best feature
Slithering around like a snake 
From my fantasy coma I awake
Into a much worse tragedy 
Into a worse and cruel reality 
Where you feel so at home
You decay my soul to the tone
Of your devil delivering laughter 
Pushing my peace and mind farther 
Into darkness where you dwell
My remaining light your Hell 
I'm here to bring an end to your crooked ways
Forced to change wherever your demon lays
I won't stop until I bring you back to life
No longer in darkness full of delightful blithe
In the eyes of the sun shining up on you 
My words in the end will prove all too true
This promise I make to you right now
See light in the dark I will show you how
Just open your pointed ears to me
A brighter world soon you will see

Communication Differing

Differing of communication of beliefs 
Escaping rage the only thing that reliefs 
Drunk on your self worth and pride
All your flaws and insecurities you hide 
Practicing selfishness and no empathy 
But then you lie only for some sympathy 
Causing fury I feel to build up even more
You turned the knob but then shut the door
In my changed soul I've become so torn
Gaining gratification from growing ego as porn 
You've forced my secret thoughts and feelings 
Angering my heart and soul with each of your dealings 
Socialized gatherings have turned so sour of a taste 
To my wondering mind and bleeding heart a true waste
What was once ever so real 
Now is so fake solid as steel
Wearing your ignorance on your arrogant face
You act as if it's a competition like some grand race
You jock for position by kissing ass 
So clear to me like reflecting glass 
So drunk and full of yourself now
To bend no one can teach you how

Hero Turned Villain

The past worst distraction for the future
No remedy to stop the yearn for an adventure
Here once again so heavily breathing
In my mind so deeply I'm dreaming
So far away is excitement from my feelings
No longer do I listen to these teachings
Another hero has died once again
As the villain grand rise starts to begin
A endless story without an end
High on your horse with hypocrisy in mind
Searching for any probable cause of some kind
No meaning to any lives lost or saved
Personal gratification we all so craved
Now is gone from everywhere but our memories
Once were our closest friends now only enemies
Stuck between heaven and hell such a thin line
That has become much weaker over passed time
Now the time rang to change who I remain
Now I'm forced to go farther truly insane

Black Shadows

Black Shadows
Pornographic images of destruction to a greedy mind
Starvation of education and chivalry very rare to find
Bittersweet memories becoming even more bitter
Wovening hatred and lies our society the fitter
Try to undo it again try to forgive them again
Before the flowing memories and hate begin
All our own insecure imperfections bleeding
Through these scabs we all been scratching
Lie to ourselves, but we know the truth at heart
We let the world tear and rip our souls apart
Lingering black shadows lurking in the dark hidden
Created by our own mind to remember the forbidden
Paranoia fear causing anxiety losing control of ourselves
Praying to the ones we place so high up on shelves
I been creating escape goat delusions like shedding skin
Doing my best to erase and find forgiveness of every sin
Death, justice, and truth I've been truly contemplating
To find my soul and bring it back again needs completing
But I've been blinded by the darkness caused by these shadows
They see through me so clearly like they're looking through windows
Through my confusion and delusions I want to find what it's hiding
When finally my eye sees it and my heart will be truly happily crying

Last Ride, the Crow

Sitting in the corner looking out my window
Is it real this time or just a shadow
I spot that old black crow
Then I for sure truly know
A new bottle whiskey comforting me
Who is that coming up fast upon me I see
Another demon searching for me again
From a blurry haze I raise my lingering chin
The reaper has his scythe pointed right at my heart
Is this the true breaking point trying to tear it all apart
A longing still burning in my old lost soul
Same familiar stinging and gaping hole
My mind lost of all thoughts shared
Pondering if anyone ever truly cared
Slip right into my own personal fantasy
My grand and cherished escape from reality
The only words that matter are the ones left unspoken
And the only true good ones left are ever so broken
Looking into the mirror reflecting the one I've become
Painfully and slowly fading all who have gone and have come
Once friends turned enemies
Such as remaining memories
The one me no longer dwells here
Emotionless the only feeling left fear
Fear for who I am from this point on
The one I once was back then is now gone
Faded away such as my empathy
For all cruel people left no more sympathy
If this is the end of me
Just let it all just be
Let me burn out with pride
As I take my very last ride
A sad song I ride put on to
So goodbye I now say to you

Waves of Life

I now understand the reason of it all 
Why so many times I had to truly fall 
All the times I had to suffer through 
The real reason I always lost it was you 
Looking back at the past I see it lead to this future 
Amazed how far I've come what a long real adventure 
Forcing in escaped shallow breaths back then 
Back then that's how it had always been 
Now I breath in life with every breath 
No longer black and dreading my death 
For I truly live my life so thankfully 
Moments these days they fill so heavenly 
When the bright warming sun shines upon me 
The rain pours I dance as I swim in the sea 
So many waves I've overcome to arrive right at your side 
The life you bring to me and the love I feel from you I can't hide 
When I look into those mysterious cute eyes so beautiful 
I see raging waves so mesmerizing a view so wonderful 
Those waves have swept me off my feet into your arms 
We keep each other chained with the others charms 
The way you smile and laugh I so much cherish 
The way you read my words until the very finish 
How you feel the things that I write 
It makes you glow with this light 
It grows so bright I feel it shine out the darkness 
When it comes to loving you I'm ever so helpless 
For you I'm always caring about how you are 
I still feel you like you're here and not so far 
When we connect I feel you beside me 
Truly happy and so at peace as I can be

Janey 16 Days

You were the color among all the gray
Words left unsaid so much I have to say
Your wings that spread kindness I can't see
Since you flew away whole again I can't be
You were my true savior my only light
Shined you always did ever so bright
Never afraid to rattle someone or fight
And all the memories flood my mind tonight
Unconditional bond tied tight together
A loss of hope and happiness so deep
So long I've searched by there's no other
My mind does wonder if you know I still weep
Janey so many close used to call you
Stories you shared with me when you wanted
The way you spoke I knew they were true
These tales and you my memory they haunted
Like a guardian angel to protect me forever
To try and forget you and them I could never
Sixteen days which existence has come to an end
Yet are still here and hard for me they all have been
Your blessed light you inherited right onto me
The only way I can still see you is in my dream

The Insane Leading the Sane

Speeding down on this train
Becoming even more insane
You can't make me see the light
Reality gives nightmares flight
A broken picture with empty frame
A lifeless life living among shame
The all blinding light shining so bright
My own conscious gives no fight
My conscious has become empty as a bottle
Numb as I speed away pushing down the throttle
Cold night air numb on my skin
Twisted mind full of only sin
You judge and analyze us all
But far from grace you too fall
Ignoring your own arrogance
Preach your own ignorance
We're all just passengers along for the ride
Divided right in two for there's never one side
The insane are now leading the remaining sane
Off the limited rails speeding farther away this train

Judgement Tree

All my friends I've counted there's three
How strange that they never talk to me
A road I travel down is all to familiar to be
I need a place so that my mind can truly flee
Will you old friends of mine come to me
So concern and care in your eyes I can see
Don't you shut me out and stop talking to me
Don't going judging me and let me be so free
Don't you ignore me when we arrive at the judgement tree
How weird would it be as we stand so tall cut off at the knee
A rope of our sins lingering from a limb
Fitted tight against our throats to the brim
The executioner the one we both crossed 
That time a shame when those rocks we tossed 
Shattering a mirror with our reflection 
The glass spreading the worse infection 
Lying through teeth who was the real sinner 
In the end it never mattered no one is a winner 
And that's how our true stories last pages were written 
For you can't stop the old itch once you have been bitten
