Life, Abandon

Floating slow,
Drifting further from empty shell
Floating slow,
Shedding detail, stripped of yourself
Cage no more,
Horizons far away
Temptress calls.
Beckoned further into the stray…
Mistress she calls,
Temptress she lies.
Floating slow,
Drifting closer to foreign grace.
Floating slow,
As it numbs the ominous pain.
Thoughts that pierce,
Your mind, scar scattered brain.
Shield this mind.
Beckoned further, into the stray…
Mistress she calls,
Temptress she lies.
Pain’s been sharpening it’s old claws
Against these prison walls
It’s been dormant deep within you
Finally time to….
Bleed self-less tears
She’s come to glare
Your own astray
Stripped of this day…..
Abandoned was life

Rot/Re-grow

Cold were her lips awash with rain
Stars screamed abstain
Tall was the fortress where she lay
One million walls around her brain
Venus drifted slowly past
Shimmered on the way
Engulfed into the black
To re-emerge one day
Starved, starving at the roots again
Starved, starving at the roots again
Throw, can you throw a fucking rope my way
To climb. To climb these fucking vines again.
Stars screamed all night to stay away
Stars scream away
Stars bled her light into my veins
Stars bleed away
Let her rot to re-grow
Dead sat her blight inside my soul
She’ll Rot, Re-grow.
Let it rot to re-grow
Let her rot to re-grow.

Nectar Clouds

|
Dull blunt knife,
Penetrate gradually.
Save the night,
Let us bury the sun away.
Taste your time
Taste
Taketh away
Selfishly fading, right into this night
Trading the drugs, replaced.
Ebbing this moonlight,
Cyclic with this tide
Bury the sun away.
Taste your time
Taste
Taketh away
Who are you?
Demons, ripped her night away
Demons, ripped her right away
Awake, she died alone.
Awake, in nectar clouds.

Code of Silence

Have you chose your view
Cemented stuck concrete
Reject words like a parasite
Have you made your mind
Up, joined the easy fleet
You feel like you know you’re right
Abuse, cast the blame
It’s easy to brush off, what leads to pain
Void of freedom, thought
Policed again.
Allow us to conclude, truths to be shared.
This shit aint left or right
Not right not Left
Let both sides speak their mind
Who comes out best?
Have you found your team?
How’s that self-esteem
Peaking as you flee the fight
Do you feel afraid
Of criticisms made?
You’ve become scared to change your mind.
Truths on display
Dismantle, re-construct, an endless play
On words to re-define, what we call truth
Objection is a right,
Just let us choose.
This shit aint left or right
Not right not left
Let both sides speak their mind
Who comes out best?
Ohhh, ohh, ohhh, ohhh. Oohhh. Ohh
Code of silence…

Evergreens
05:39
|

|
Burn slow,
Torched the feeble earth.
Needles,
Drain, no re-emerge.
We’ve been,
Lied to endlessly.
Black screen,
Nothing’s as it seems.
All we’ll leave here,
Are compressed Evergreens.
Aeon reminder,
Of life - fragility.
Ice voice,
Intensive cold deceive.
Fragment,
To unify with greed.
Bent logic,
Acquires endful means.
Foundations,
Of earth’s effigy.
All we’ll leave here,
Are compressed Evergreens.
Aeon reminder,
Of life - fragility.
Buried Evergreens.
A planet, is suffering.
Suffering.
Suffering.
Suffering.
Suffering.
Cosmic rays are welcome.
Revolving endlessly
Cosmic rays, I welcome thee.
Scorch the earth,
With the stars.
Fragmented,
Wide and far.
Planet suffering,
Revolving Endlessly,
Buried Evergreens.
