Brightly colored smiles,
Laughs worth a million miles,
Hands held tight,
Don’t give up without a fight.
Same old setting,
Made from lies of letting
Tear fall down
Cheeks painted like a clown…
Pretty, pretty, pretty…
Locked in the big scary city.
Cold and glistering
Was anybody listening?
Clean and tidy
Cheers on every Friday!
No one sees
What’s above the knees…
I left you in fields of bloody demise,
With words of hope that were all lies.
Come morning I hear you suffered in turn,
Leaving you there, I left you to burn.
My actions involuntary,
Yet on the contrary
I knew, when I left through the door,
That there will be blood once more.
After all has been said and done,
I must admit it was quite fun
To play you all like fools and dolls.
Now excuse me, the Devil calls.
Long days pass
Back and forth
But alas
There is no court.
Dreams for dreamers…
They mean nothing
All those screamers
Serching for something…
Can they fade
Away from here
Or is the blade
Their only dear…
When ‘enough’ is just a word
And there’s nowhere else to turn,
When the world seems so absurd
And you wish it would all burn.
That’s when you see the colors
Of our doomed humanity.
You will find that your brothers
Fell into insanity.
It is best to close the page,
Forget what you once held dear.
Turn away from war and rage
Or be consumed by your fear…
Be it heaven,be it hell
Somehow it all goes well.
But in a world meant for man
Nothing goes by the plan.
Questions asked and forgotten,
Aren’t we so very rotten…
All that’s meant for wanting eyes,
Has been buried beneath lies.
Find your way back from the abyss,
It’s not what you lack that people miss.
Nothing could change the way they see
The world in this disharmony.
The rules have long been written,
And not one has been smitten.
For fairness or doubt they fought back
Only to realize what they lack…
The role is played,
The curtain is closed.
I am afraid
Of being exposed.
Without reason
Or simplest delay,
Commit treason
And never stay.
Question my motives,
If there were any.
Try to notice
The last penny.
Close your eyes
You’ll see my soul,
It’s full of lies,
Black, like coal.
I might be mean,
Cruel and heartless.
Nothing unseen,
But regardless
Painfully phrasing
All that abides.
It’s amazing
What a smile hides.
Pretty angel, dressed in white,
You’re a blessing in the light.
Yet inside you’re sick and twisted.
I can’t believe that wasn’t listed…
Accursed demon of the night,
Where you go, you bring a fight.
Even though you care for flowers,
I know you’ll steal what’s ours!
Mirror, mirror, standing tall,
Have you seen this one at all?
With a smile, or a frown,
Maybe wearing a golden crown.
Here today, tomorrow, never…
They might think they are so clever
Hiding with the world close-by,
Never around to ask why.
Tucked away so far from sight,
No where near the burning light,
That can show what is shrouded
With them all, it’s getting crowded.
