room

A room full of history
Not knowing to start
Boxes of intricacy fill to the top
of this broken room
Like a secret room
With contents hidden on the inside
Yet it's exposed for all to see

Music

Musical notes pumping through my veins
Bursts of inspiration burn my eyes
Until I put the instrument down again

G

The hawk eyes preying upon every disappointment
Hone in on every piece of sensitivity and strike with sheer accuracy
Scar this broken piece again and again
Sharp the beak is, backstabbing, swooping

Let's take off the blindfold
We'll open your eyes to the world
No restrictions, what you see is what you get
Wide in full view, your own surroundings

"Oh I'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows It's got to be this time
Avenues all lined with trees
Picture me and then you start watching
Watching forever, forever
Watching love grow, forever
Letting me know, forever."

As I take my first steps towards liberation
Leaving only behind the materialism
Subjecting myself to sheer masochism
Bringing onto the road, the sentiment

A silent goodbye is whispered in my mind
A half-hearted grin without turning back
While a part of this organism waits for a tap on the shoulder
The rest walks slowly slowly away

"Oh I'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows It's got to be this time
Watching her, these things she said,
Times she cried, to frail to wake this time"

Iconography #1

The iconography stares me straight in the face
Burning with guilt and resent
Wrong timing as always
It wouldn't be as bad as it is now

Ocean

Confusion mixed with the questioning of existence
Let the pulses of my brain beat and throb
For there's always the easy option or the difficult one

Here I stand in the abyss of the ocean
As the seas part leaving a gap
Slowly closing in on each other

Rushing through the gap
Stopping to let the pulses get through
Stopping to hold the negativity

Let it close in on me
Just let it close in on me
Let it sweep me away

Let's have a toast

Let's have a toast to humanity
Let's have a toast to the contributors
Let's have a toast to the innovative minds
Let's have a toast to knowledge distributors

"Let's have a toast to the douchebags
Let's have a toast to the assholes
Let's have a toast to the scumbags
Every one of them that I know

Let's have a toast for the jerkoffs
That'll never take work off
Baby I got a plan
Runaway as fast as you can"

Waiting

Waiting for the downfall
Waiting for the explosion
Remnants of debris left with the ashes
As everything placed into the building
Is destroyed and turned into nothing
Absolutely nothing, for he has nothing left

Iron & Wine - Naked as we came

I was listening to this just then, appreciate the lyrics and its truth.

________

She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard

She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard

Nothing

There's nothing to place in this box
There's nothing to say
There's nothing to express myself
Trying to sieze the day

All these words are meaningless
As they are formed through my fingers
Reminiscing about past, present, future
As everything in my head is lingering

Me

Eyes start to droop
Hair a mess
Ears ringing
Look like a wreck

Rain

It pours outside while the stupidest ideas come to mind
Only in my imagination does it happen, yet in reality,
A lack of guts is shown to go through with them

Let the chilly rain drip down my face
Two substances intermixed, unable
To tell apart between the two

A sharp pain at the core
Has been stabbing all day
Wanting to lay down, but i'm too tired

Stabs at me again and again
A kick down there
Struggling to get up again and again

Unending continuation #4

He waited and waited
For once to conquer the fear
For once to gain the new found confidence
For once, to make everything clear

The glowing aura that protruded
From the face into my eyes
Left a euphoric nature
Ironically now, they're blind

Cycle

It's the same cycle every time
It's all the same, the process, the ending
It starts the same, and ends the same
This is the cynic in me speaking
As words and pictures have poisoned my brain
