Self Control

annoyed of SELF CONTROL
controlled by the insane 

defined by its people
the chemicals changed

its the anger in your mind
that despised 
all the rest

screw it,despair and ashes
suit it best

its the refused realization
a sick portrait 

of the young world with
a crooked mind

its like she plays innocent
to pass the time

what she lost
is sent to no return
the only thing that lingers

is her annoyance
of self control.

Bedtime Stories

Dark trees hover over me.
I’m left in the woods.
Sounds and even owls, don’t lighten the mood.
Lost with my map, I cry, I pant.
Looking left and trying to find the right path.
Somebody save me,  there is something lurking behind me.
It’s creeping and crawling and it’s right there! It surprised me.
It grabs a hold of me tightly, and speaks into my ear.
“ Goodnight my sweet darling, the morning will soon appear."

I Can Only Dream

Wake up in the night,
having you by my side,
I dream of this moment with no end,
I can't remember how long its been,
but I seem to manage,
its hard being a hopeless romantic,
cause when faith falls,
I don't know if you'll be there to catch it,
I can only dream of this night, with no end,
I can't remember how long it's been.

Moment of Exhilarating Taste

I took one hit and then a few puffs more
I'm waiting for the rush, I'm waiting to explore
Into my mind of eternal bliss
the moment, it stands but does not exist 
I think about that moment and hold it dear
I know it wont last and it slowly dissapears

I take a shack more to get lost in the moment
I look back, close my eyes and seize the moment

the smoke fades but leaves the smell of a exhilarating taste
I clear my mind once more
now it's not eternal but everlasting, taking me in, once more.

Where Are You Now

Dont come to far to save me
Dont make anything feel right
I am stopping you now
Before I change my mind

I want you to go
Dont leave me here
Why did you pick now, darling
to dissapear

I needed you the most
Where are you now
Why can I feel you close
Are you listening now

Are you waiting on change
Are you waiting on time
Is it up to me
to change your mind

Pass Me By

Come
Pass me by
It's not the smile that's in your eye's
or the way you hold her hand
it's how you could
never
simply understand

Decrepit Landscapes

Dreary decrepit landscapes frost over the hills,
No land to salvage, no time to kill.

Close your eyes into a paradise that will never find you,
Sences leave you blind, As your soul will forever guide you.

Valid dreams no longer vivid, In this world so directed,
Time can no longer pass, but with you, I have existenced.

Moonlight Glow

I bathe in the moonlight soaking in, the nights glow.
My skin shines with the stars, but, I have to remain unknown.
I can see the fields below.  The wind has died down and the birds have gone home.
I’m in my shower, looking out from my window of my black tower.
My body flows in the waves that the radio plays, as the water drips to the beats, of the words, to be sang.

Turning and Spinning

Turning and Spinning,
the days go round,

Faster and Faster,
were feeding into the Sound,

When it whispers,
it starts to grow,
I can hear it spreading,
and it's spreading across the Globe.

We need to stand before we fall,
Against these triangle eyes, we call them all,
It's not that these days are near,
It's just,
that were blindsighted,
Covered in Fear.

Traits of the God's

Sunrise to sunset
to live in the life of the unrest
where beauty meets cruelty 
depending on how you see the reflection
opened or closed eyes
either way we are, alive.

Traits of the gods with independent thoughts
genes from our mothers, if we know them or not
love we experience, foreshadow's it not.

Bound to a beautiful time,
it is pure cruelty, I can't call you mine.
