Cogs

Screech of the gears come to a halt

The workers leave the building desolate

End on end, working the cogs of the machine

Innate, yet building and progressing from humanity

Staring at the blank building

Workers once do dream

The rust, the faults, the cogs

Will enable themselves again

As for now, the workers stand backs turned

Fire in their eyes, stomach's churned

As the building behind them recklessly burns.

Past

Live in the distant past

Forget the present

Fuck the future

Such a mentality insisting upon living then

Such a mentality having a firm grip

When the world starts to keep moving on and on

You stay, just stay

We'll move with the world

Revel in ignorance.

Hypocrisy

Hypocrisy, self indulgence, inherent greed within myself

The wanting of what one can't have resonating within

Questions, insight, wealth of knowledge, insisting upon

Knowing, insisting upon insight, feeding upon his own

Hypocrisy, self indulgence, inherent greed within himself

Speeding Cars - Imogen Heap

This song just resonates with me.

___________________________

Here's the day you hoped would never come
Don't feed me violins
just run with me through rows of speeding cars.
The papercuts the cheating lovers
The coffee's never strong enough
i know you think it's more than just bad luck

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now darling
oh don't lose your head
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

Sleeping pills know sleeping dogs lie
never far enough away
Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt
I've watched you slowly winding down for years
You can't keep on like this...
now's a bad a time as any

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't kill yourself
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..it was a long time ago


it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..it was a long time ago

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't lose your head
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't kill yourself
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

World

The world keeps spinning as we wait for it to stop
A moment of solitude in our lives
Waiting for that one moment
That will never come, just a vision in our eyes

“The coffee is never strong enough”
As the days keep coming
We struggle to keep up
A constant motion in different directions

Nights of pure thought
Days of blinding light
Growing ever so tired
To merely put up a light
To continue forwards
To never look back
To fall asleep at night
To wake up in the morning

Paperthin Hymn - Anberlin

I don't know why I haven't heard this song before. I love it.

______________

When your only friends are hotel rooms

Hands are distant lullabies

If I could turn around I would tonight

These roads never seemed so long

Since your paperheart start beating leaving me suddenly alone

Will daybreak ever come?

Who's gonna call on sunday morning?

Who's gonna drive you home?

I just want one more chance

To put my arms in fragile hands

I thought you said forever

Over and over

A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head

Over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends

August evenings

Bring solemn warnings

To remember to kiss the ones you love goodnight

You never know what temporal days may bring

So laugh, love, live free and sing

When life is in dischord

Praise ye the lord

Who's gonna call on sunday morning?

Who's gonna drive you home?

I just want one more chance

To put my arms in fragile hands

I thought you said forever

Over and over

The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head

Over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends

I thought you said forever

Over and over

The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head

Over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends

I thought you said forever

Over and over

These thoughts run through my head

Sleep #2

String of long days, never ending in his eyes

Pushing his legs onwards and onwards

In such a familiar environment

Not stopping to think, or soak in

The one moment where the walking stopped

The one moment where the running stopped

Where his mind was blank

Was the moment he never wanted, his body sank

Trapped in the depths of thought

Sleep prevailed

-version

Perceiving on the outside bringing upon extroversion

Living in my own world bringing upon introversion

It drains me

Oh it drains me

Round and Round #3

His head spun round and round

Never stopping as the incessant popping

Red signs, everywhere repeatedly

Bashing away at his mind

Entering a state of darkness

Living through blindness

Mentally blank

Mentally black

Abyss

As we gallop into the abyss

Being lost in ourselves the deeper we go

The cries of ourselves echo

Waiting to crawl back out alive

The stench of delusion inside

Growing stronger as we venture inwards

Closing our eyes as we're moving forwards

Wishing, wishing to turn around

Vermilion Pt 2 - Slipknot

Uhm, wow. =/

____________

She seemed dressed in all of me

Stretched across my shame

All the torment and the pain

Leaked through and covered me

I'd do anything to have her to myself

Just to have her for myself

Now I don't know what to do

I don't know what to do

When she makes me sad

She is everything to me

The unrequited dream

A song that no one sings

The unattainable

She's a myth that I have to believe in

All I need to make it real is one more reason

I don't know what to do

I don't know what to do

When she makes me sad

But I won't let this build up inside of me

I catch in my throat

Choke

Torn into pieces

I won't - no

I don't wanna be this

But I won't let this build up inside of me

She isn't real

I can't make her real

Have Faith In Me - A Day To Remember

I don't know why, but this song has been in my head for... Almost a week now. It's great. I love it. Makes me smile sometimes for no apparent reason, and that is truth.

_________

Have faith in me, cause there are things that I've seen I don't believe

So cling to what you know and never let go

You should know things aren't always what they seem

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you fall and I always meant it

If you didn't have a chance then I never did

You'll always find me right there again

I've gone crazy, cause there are things in the streets I don't believe

So we'll pretend it's alright (pretend it's alright!)

And stay in for the night, what a world

I'll keep you safe here with me (with me!)

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you fall and I always meant it

If you didn't have a chance then I never did

You'll always find me right there again

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you fall and I always meant it

If you didn't have a chance then I never did

You'll always find me right there again

They've got me on the outside looking in,

But I can't see at all with the weight of the world on my shoulders

They just wanna see me fall

They've got me on the outside looking in,

But I can't see at all with the weight of the world on my shoulders

They just wanna see me fall

Have faith in me

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you fall and I always meant it

If you didn't have a chance then I never did

You'll always find me right there again

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you fall and I always meant it

If you didn't have a chance then I never did

You'll always find me right there again

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you go and I never did

I said I'd never let you go and I never did.

Experiment #2

Invasion of a part that was unseen

Guilt races upon me

As my thoughts invade, only to see

Nothing has moved on, it has always been

Oh followers...

Follow this other blog. It has creative writing pieces instead of poetry, just paragraphs, but yeah, I'm not updating it as frequently as this, but yeah

Here

This yellow background #1

This yellow background

A canvas, merely a canvas for thought

As this moving objects stops and starts again

This canvas stays

This yellow background

Isn't physical

As this moving object stops and starts again

This canvas stays

Delusions

Destroy your life with delusions

Gargantuan as they are, inflict poison in your veins

Slowly spreading around your body as it takes home inside the brain

Such a grand scale, they burn and change

Liberation and freedom is the cure for the disease
