"He Hears The Silence Howling"

Such an amazing song...

In the shuffling madness
of the locomotive breath,
runs the all-time loser,
headlong to his death.
"Oh" He feels the piston scraping --
steam breaking on his brow --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train "it" won't stop going --
no way to slow down. "OhooOh"

He sees his children "jumping" off
at the stations -- one by one.
His woman and his best friend --
in bed and having fun.
"Oh" He's crawling down the corridor
on his hands and knees --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train "it" won't stop going --
no way to slow down. "Heaheya"

He hears the silence howling --
catches angels as they fall.
And the all-time winner
has got him by the balls.
"Oh" He picks up Gideons Bible --
open at page one --
I "THINK" God "he" stole the handle and
the train "it" won't stop going --
no way to slow down.
"no way to slow down
no way to slow down
no way to slow down
no way to slow down"

As The Stars Speak

You can see the stars in the black night sky
A cold wind screams as it passes by
And the silence sings a peaceful song
To the tranquil night your soul belongs

You can hear the lonely cars pass by silently
As wind's gust again howls violently
This serene scene shows you are at home
Free to wander, think and roam

As grim grey clouds veil the moon
Tonight, a cleansing downpour looms
The rain then falls, dancing on the ground
It dilutes Earth's poison with a subtlety profound

As you pace and pace across the land
Nature's beauty, you'll understand
Deafness you hear, your blindness is sight
As you find a light in the dead of night

Self-Induced Destruction

My inhibitions surround me like prison cell walls
A deep and never ending hollow pitfall
Caught in the wake of self-indulgent mistkes
It seems my habits I must forsake

A dreary routine day after day
My cognitions are rotten and riddled with decay
My choices coerced, my mind is infected
Leading a lifestyle which must be corrected

Living in sin, my life is a stain
The habits I hold seem ever-engrained
Cheap overstimulation; my source of elation
Leading me nowhere and procuring frustration

I must face my foes and find a facet of hope
Or I shall perpetually fall further down this steep slope
If I reach the bottom Ill be too exhausted to climb

And my body will be better off covered in lyme

The Veil Of Existence

This world is an illusion, it is darkened by the sun
An impermeable delusion deceiving everyone
It tells the truth in lies; a riddle that reveals
Logic it defies; a mirage that seems so real

It speaks our native tongue, never saying a word
A portrait that is hung, whose image is obsurd
Life's neverending search is a treasure in itself
As divine as a church -- oppurtunity is man's wealth

With every path we take, we cannot see the end
But with every mistake, knowledge it transcends
Fortifying our insight, endowing minds with power
Serving as a mental light -- the darkness it devours

Life's illusion is our own, embrace it when you can
Our purpose is unknown, but embodies every man
A shape shifter of sorts, whose figure stays the same
Circumstances change and distort, but reality remains

I Know You

This is amazing. Can you relate?

"All these words, I don't just say"

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know, whoa
But I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know, whoa
but I know

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
I'd never cared for what they do
I'd never cared for what they know
And I know

Yeah!

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Aggravating Arthropods

They buzz buzz buzz beside your ear
Then quickly disappear
And return as quickly as they left
To atrophy your sanity

They buzz buzz buzz beside your drink
Then greet you in a wink
Rapidly pursuing as you attempt to flee
You are stalked on every walk

They buzz buzz buzz beside your hand
Then pick a spot to land
Departing with a swat on the wrist
Only to come right back for another attack

Be it a mosquito, hornet, wasp, or fly
You wish they all would quickly die
Itch! Itch! Itch! your back screams out
Right before you let out an earsplitting shout

They buzz buzz buzzed beside your ear
Then quickly disappeared
Finding a fleshy feast under your shirt

And with a bountiful bite,
They buzz buzz buzz right on by
As if saying "goodbye"
