An Average Day

The water 
The spring 
The sparrow that sings 
The grass 
The field 
The cotton 
The chains 
The whips 
The whoops 
The ache 
The bones 
The blood 
Oh heavenly father 
The blood 
The feet 
The guns 
The street 
The wounds 
The woods 
The hounds 
The men 
That they seek 
Scatter they flee 
Once they run 
Twice they shoot 
Three are down 
Four cheer 
Five grieve

Never Coming

Never coming 
We’re out here all of us wanting to be home 
we’re going mad here 
endless deserts 
nothing but yelling 
the wanting to see our families smiling faces 
the fear in there eyes 
the sounds of guns firing 
the calls for help 
oh god the guns 
the screams of mercy
all of us don’t want to be here 
we don’t want to be doing this 
oh god the agony 
we call put to you to be set free 
from this hell 
but you don’t answer 
now were going into even more hell 
oh god please stop this

Arbeit Macht Frei

We were afraid 
Constantly 
Afraid 
They could 
Kill us at any moment 
For no reason suitable 
For taking a life 
Little food 
Little water 
Little salvation 
Nothing but work 
After all 
Arbeit Macht Frei 
Is what we lived by 
Every day 
Forced to live by it 
To have it mockingly 
Branded into us 
But 
It was all a lie 
We 
Were 
Never. 
Free…

Son

Fee fi foe fum 
Wake up when the 
World is gone 
Fee fi foe fum 
Stand up when the
World is done 
Fee fi foe fum 
Get ready to run 
Fee fi foe fum 
You are the 
Unwanted 
Son

The Violinist

A violin plays 
Softly in the breeze 
Its melody floats in the 
Air 
A lone sparrow flies 
Landing on the delicate violin 
It turns to sand on the beach 
The lone violinist 
Weeps 
He curses the sparrow 
To no longer fly 
Causing the sparrow 
To wither and die 
The violinist cries out 
As he slowly turns to sand himself 
And is swept into the sea

Poor Alice

Poor Alice -
 poor alice 
you messed up 
and it can’t be fixed 
you’re trapped 
and you’ll suffocate down here 
you can’t get out of this 
your legs are broken 
your arms twisted 
your neck cracked 
your tears salty 
no one will save you from your fate 
poor Alice 
their filling in the hole 
with you inside 
poor Alice 
you can’t scream 
the dirt is filling the hole 
Oh,
poor Alice 
can’t breathe 
the dirt’s covered 
poor Alice 
Welcome to 
Wonderland...

March

March
Why do they blame us momma? 
What did we ever do? 
We never asked for this 
We never asked for this 
Never 
Never 
Please momma 
I want to go home 
We want to go home 
It hurts 
It hurts 
There’s so much blood 
So much  
So much blood 
Bodies drop everywhere 
We’re just kids 
Only kids 
We didn’t ask for this 
Why are they yelling that it’s our fault ?
Please momma 
I want to go home 
Will I be the same man momma? 
I hear them 
There coming for me momma 
Please save me momma 
Please momma 
Their coming closer 
Closer 
Their right here 
Please 
Save 
Me

I'Ll Speak

I’ll speak 
And be spoken to 
I will speak my mind 
I will be heard 
I will listen 
What I say is truth 
What you say will be lies 
But i listened 
in amusement 
For a while
You spoke 
And it all fell out 
Your disgusting mouth 
Rotting your teeth 
Your tongue fell out once I opened Mine 
My words bring meaning 
Yours bring chaos 
I am strong 
You are weak 
I sing 
You scream 
I prosper  
You fade 
I grow 
You disappear
