So you think that textbooks should be two hundred bucks
Well I think that is bull crap, and that you really suck
For thinking education is only for the rich
Well now I'm into pirating. PAYBACK IS A B****!
(to be sung to the tune of the Hoedown from Whose Line Is It Anyway)
^ Love the reference :)
This sorta popped into my head as I was trying to go to sleep, apologies for length and sombreness lol:
Imagine when you awake
A room in bliss
Alone, quiet, peaceful
Light streaming through the window
Warming the soul
No sound other than
The birds singing
The river laughing
The leaves whispering
The wind sighing
Yet this dawn is a false one
As we fail to comprehend
These ever present sounds
Are the secrets of existence
Suddenly,
Blinded with truth
Our eyes open wider
And we understand
All we have ever done
All we have ever felt
Done, before us
We are no different
Yet it all boils down
To that moment of knowing
That sudden clarity
The enlightening moment
The utter realization
Of all you have done
The understanding of the world
And all that it means
Just like awakening
On that bright Winter’s day
That is how I see
Death
Nothing to do today
Stuck indoors all day
Too cold to go out they say
I really wish it was as warm as May
So i can go out and relax by the bay
Poetry and creativity is my way
To overcome my boredom so i can feel okay
The chimes ring on the boughs of a tree,
the wind your voice to the endless sleep.
Reality surreal, constrained by your past,
the strength of your oak will never last.
Grit encompasses your roots, securing your seat,
you're incapable of escaping your encroaching defeat.
Days pass by, progressing in our minds,
While our memories’ eye wanders behind.
A ring
Is a thing
With bling.
SCHWINGG!
World drifting further apart
Greed and manipulation considered as smart
Man dividing against other living things
Destroying the connectedness and the beauty it brings
Polluting waters, polluting the sky
Cutting down trees, leaving plants and animals to die
This planet is our home since birth
Yet we're unconsciously seeking to destroy the earth
There's this woman, this muse,
Advances I refuse to refuse.
Above her manufactured chest,
Her metaphysical mind attracts me best.
Born a male,
Sit on the Holy Grail.
Below the waist,
She is chaste.
Somnus is the only one
Who screams louder than my mind
I'm begging for his empty eyes
When I feel my peace dies
Slaughtered on the open rack
Fired by the coals of my fears
Somnus is my only hope
If I dare to shed tears
Restless in these heavy eyes
Restless are they, spread open
Back to my memories
Forth to my fair hopes
Somnus, please just take me
Like your brother will one day, sure
Somnus, you're my friend, aren't you?
Show me how to be pure
Friends, all those ones I know
For every drop of sleep I lose
Love, paranoia,
And desperation; I can't chose
Somnus is the only one
Who can sew shut my soul
Dying every morning's light
Seams unfastened by such gold
My senses are gone
But I do believe in something
I'm beginning to be aware
Aware of my potential to change
If life is a dream
I can make my dreams come true
My dog is far,
not in my car,
I am alone,
just with my phone,
but happy as puppy,
never too fluffy.
Never mind...
For all the good I've done
For that one fight I won
Will you give me peace?
Will you stand and sting me?
For every light undone
For the calloused moment, stand
Do you laud me or cut me down?
Did you kill sympathy by yourself
Or did the devil lend a hand?
You know my power
And you know my faults
You know every little thing
That can make me fall to my knees
You know I'm righteous
For as much as I have strength
So why do you suddenly feel the need
To kick me while I'm down?
[chorus]
You bellow truth like a mace
So slap me to my face
Except you will, 'cause you don't care
You just want the truth at any cost
Well, pay your dues, my friend
Pay your dues, my friend
For your "kindness" and "mercy"
And every knife you felt the need to stab
And twist
Oh, friend
[chorus]
Tonight I am the absence of the
wish to be of virtue, a
tournament of worms at
epic war amongst decay
This confluence of blind hysterics
celebrates iconoclasm; personally
I believe I'm destined for
attrition
My loneliness is manifesting
multitudes of research vessels,
each displaying active understanding
of parsimony
The spices which would tease
my nose turned out to be
just dust and I inhaled all you
bastards like a sneeze but in reverse
Night owl, bright owl
Why you so alone?
You've dressed your nest so fine and yet
Too empty be your home!
Self chained to the mind drain,
Back cracking and still slacking.
Knowledge gone jam, I’m cramming for exams.
Lost focus of the goal while I'm stuck in this hole,
My education is blind, a meaningless grind
Goin' off the rockers... 4 days until my last exam, can't wait :)
nothing better than the sounds of nature waking up again
right outside your window...as you lay in reverie
naked from the hips up...as if swimming in the seas of your blankets
hair all this way and that, cheeks flushed with heat and happiness...
feeling like a mermaid still, even in the light of a new day....
Not going further in life
Stuck in endless depression
It's time I break out of the cage I have created for myself
And explore a new world
Let me die before
My branches reach full height
And not within the drooping
Autumns past my might.
Allow me please to live
In sapling forests more
Than drying out in decades
Which I am allowed more.
Music, the darkness of my soul
Art, the light of my soul
What happens when I combine the two?
(Just something I am thinking about. I like metal music and draw crosses mainly and stuff... I want to use my talents to produce an album when I can start recording which i plan to in the near future... :) )
A demon is inside of my heart
It's clawing its way out
Until I realize my need for You
Or am I really a part of this war
Couldn't my life just be mine
And make the best of it
Last one for a while... :)
Face your fears in waking life
More power to you
Face your nightmares head on
You can accomplish anything
I once tried to write up a story
And found I was already done
For I was the man who told me I can
All deaf to the sound of the drums
So I called in a picture of morning
And painted you standing alone
And watery deeps crashed down o'er the seas
Said, "boy, you best hurry on home"
Can you hear?
A still voice says "I love you"
Will you hear?
That voice still says "I love you"
You baked a melody on that day
But never would name your price
But as deaf as I can to these doubts in your hand
I will stand 'til the time is ripe
So come to the table and celebrate
These things that we don't understand
Tough I'm just a man, I swear I'll do all I can
Just hold... out... your hand
Can you hear?
A still voice says "I love you"
Will you hear?
That voice still says "I love you"...
Falling...
Falling...
Falling...
Distraction surrounds
All around us
Unsympathetic
Unaware
Distraction surrounds
me...
Is there any hope? Nay,
Is there not a prayer
For those who drift to sea,
Never to be seen again?
What will happen to them?
The hikikomori,
The lost. The frustrated
And the distracted.

Falling...
Falling...
Maybe kinda weird oh well...
Dumb me down
Make me think I don't exist
Until I realize all my strength
Is inside my dreams
I find peace where no one can follow
I'll follow my heart within
I see how they are
I am not one of them
I am my own person
Free to develop my own abilities
Inside my mind I have the answer
To total freedom
To free myself of despair
I find peace within
Where no one can follow
