Laughing Boy

Crack a grin
Break out in hoots
Destroy my solitude
You stand on the side
Laughing Boy,
and I can't stand it anymore

I was you
Before that day
When all things were
Disintegrated
And I lost the game
Lost the war

I was the guy
On the sidelines
Of mankind
versus mankind
Who thought it
Was all rather funny

Too bad I
can't stop my
struggle to tell 
you all the things that
will destroy your 
life...

Innocence is bliss
And you ain't innocent
you just want 
the world 
and all its shiny trinkets
without the price

Time to wake up
Time to frown
Time to cry
And rise from 
your Self
To begin your struggle

But, I can't make ya
No, that laugh keeps
Me going when
Things get bad
Even if we lose
we'll hear your echoes

Lifeline

Rope is tangled
Twisted 
Into divine
Symbolic
Of the nature
Angered
Beasts gnashing at
My door step
Trying to bring
Me down to
Their crude nature
And I will
Not let them beat
My soul from
My strong body
Instead I will
Gather them
In my open
Palm, so they
May be crushed
And become 
Like threads of a
String coming
Together for
The building
Of a great rope
Filled with
All the things I
Conquered 
In my lifetime
So, let this 
Rope grow greater
And longer
Till it reaches 
The blue sky
Filled with
My Victory

Rider

Open your eyes fool
Don't you see the end 
Its coming back again
And this time there's a rider
With a gun in either hand

His face is grim
His hands are white and guns
Inscribed with Plight
And Mankind's Sorrow
He fires into the air

Lead leaves steel far behind
Arcing up into the brilliant sky
Fast and straight does it fly
But Plight can only go so far
And Mankind's Sorrow travels forever

A bullet wrought with havoc
Falls towards the ground
Impact with raging sound
And all the people shudder
And all the world surrenders

The dust will settle
The rider will take his leave
And survivors have to grieve
He will be back, they say
So let us go make his bullets

Crazy Don't Begin

Start with a question...
How did I get here?
3:30 at night
black out, impending resting doom
I wish for its coming eclipse

Right now
I chew gum with solid solidarity
On and on forever
Does it ever die?  
I don't imagine so
I can't make thoughts work right

There is a light above
Twinkle, Twinkle, Flash!
Thought my mind was freaking
Turns out physics just gone bad
Or maybe its chemistry, love
I want to feel dark on my skin

There is a weird man
Singing in the shower
In deep rumbling opera voice
Been in there a while
Can hear him through my Chili Peppers
Kinda sorta wisha he would stop

Only have one contact in
I thought it was a good idea
At the time
Oh well, that eye was getting red
and looking pretty sore
Actually, my lids be getting sleepy

So, why am I here?
Of all the places?
To write silly papers and 
Redic-uh-lusss~~~~~ poems
I seem to be trapped in a priveleged
hell!  And I drink from the poisoned golden well!

But that made no sense
Or maybe just a little
I just want you (yea, you!) 
To realize that sleep is overcoming me
M(eye) brain is down for the count
Don't try and rouse me
Just let me B
Inside I am already dreaming
What about now?
Or now?
Ma;ybe this was some bad case of REM!!!

Egotist

Where do the Sympathies Lie?
Are they there for Condolence?
Or the bleeding fools who can't help but cry?
Do they make me wonder at night?
Hell no, I'm too tuff to realize...
All the things I done right...
But at the exact same time I feel bad
Like an atrocity of mankind's feel good vibes
Cause my niceness can be pretty sad
I don't want to hurt the world
Its too damn good to break or tarnish
But society made me curdled
A black cat on the road that refuses to leave
So all in all, I'm that guy that thinks he's better
But that ain't true, you are the water, I'm the sieve...

Legend

We all want to be
Legend
All we want is to
BE!
Part of the picture
In the Sum
Of every little thing
Hold on
To The little things
Make them
The epic hero tale
Built
Like Great Odysseus
And
Hitler the coward
Don't
Let the one big thing 
Take over
Your beautiful mind
Transfix
Your hate into your soul
Breathes 
War and Dread into you
Fear comes
In the darkest corner
Of the mind
Revenge turns sour
the Legend

Greatness
Measured in society
Impact
Judged by the future
Love/hate
Decides the path you take....
Legend
