Poems

Practice Makes Perfect

Led us on to think that you were alright
Yeah you lie although you knew we truly cared about you
Well you made your choice and its one you'll have to live with
Yeah there isn't any do-overs after this even if you beg

I gotta wonder how you even sleep at night
Sure your thoughts must eat you up inside
You can't just treat people like their nothing, I don't care if you claim some how it makes you happy
We both know that just isn't right

What a surprise one day to wake up and find
You were never truly what we had thought all along
I'm sure for the moment we'll feel some pain
But honestly is it really that shocking?

Make excuses, say you don't know who you are and where your going
Yeah I'm sure our pity makes you feel just fine
Sometime though you should listen to your own words you've been preaching
Yeah your quite the devil in your own right

You can tell your story to anyone that'll listen but in the end it won't do much good
You can only burn so many bridges before the doors won't open
Maybe work on that self esteem? Maybe fix that shattered ego?
I've reached the point I'm done with words
Yeah you have pushed me past the brink

What a surprise one day to wake up and find
You were never truly what we had thought all along
I'm sure for the moment we'll feel some pain
But honestly is it really that shocking?

Keep spouting your words of deception cause we both know you use them so well
Don't forget to smile and use that charm, soon enough you'll have them in the palm of your hand
Don't worry soon enough you'll have your new friends
By then we'll surely forget your name

What a surprise one day to wake up and find
You were never truly what we had thought all along
I'm sure for the moment we'll feel some pain
But honestly is it really that shocking?


Another song thrown together in 30 mins but inspired by a few things. Style influenced by some awesome pop punk bands I listen to.

 

So what does struggling to find sleep get you at 4 am? Well another song idea ...



Reality


You struggle to get any sleep, wander these streets wondering where it all went wrong
Convinced it can't be any of your fault, no of course your just a victim in the aftermath

Hold tight to that Rosary cause deep down you know he or anybody else is not even listening
Then again in wake of what you did, you honestly thought we would?
You say you'd rather break mirrors than promises but by how your living life it looks like the complete opposite
Oh at least you got the assurance from your of collection burned bridges you've made to light your way back home

Can't say it isn't a shame to watch someone I thought I knew so well go up in smoke
Had so much to give but we all saw it coming so we aren't really surprised by the ending result
Often enough the right words will never have the effect you want, no matter how much time you give
They are going in headstrong, won't stop till they get what they want
Only to regret it down the line
I'm singing ...

Hold tight to that Rosary cause deep down you know he or anybody else is not even listening
Then again in wake of what you did, you honestly thought we would?
You say you'd rather break mirrors than promises but by how your living life it looks like the complete opposite
Oh at least you got the assurance from your collection of burned bridges you've made to light your way back home

It didn't take long for the true you to finally break free
Must of been bugging you all these months pretending to be happy
When it came to giving up that pride that you grew to love so much
It was more than you could bear
Now that everything is out in open we can all start to move on
Truth be told lessons were learned and I wouldn't want it any different

I'm singing ...

Hold tight to that Rosary cause deep down you know he or anybody else is not even listening
Then again in wake of what you did, you honestly thought we would?
You say you'd rather break mirrors than promises but by how your living life it looks like the complete opposite
Oh at least you got the assurance from your collection of burned bridges you've made to light your way back home

Oh one more time ...

Hold tight to that Rosary cause deep down you know he or anybody else is not even listening
Then again in wake of what you did, you honestly thought we would?
You say you'd rather break mirrors than promises but by how your living life it looks like the complete opposite
Oh at least you got the assurance from your collection of burned bridges you've made to light your way back home

 

At school teachers tell you the lies they believe
that was when I recognized
they spread nonsense like a disease
they are cyborgs and their minds are reduced
for foolish thinking and work at school
Surrounded from genetic idiots
who think you are the fool
try to find
a way out of this hell
don`t try to sell
your soul and your mind
you have to find
the exit and run
It`s no fun
to be caught in the matrix
TV keeps lying
enjoy your dream
while people are dying
take your eyes off the screen!

 

Knowledge

For what I know of
who I am
I`d rather be
another human
Not as limited
as I am
Knowing theories and concepts
only forms and shapes
Nothing with substance or proof
The walls that hide the truth
will they be removed?
Brick by brick
with every book I read
the questins become more
the answers hiding deep
inside of my own mind
Am I blind? Or
maybe deaf?
The only truth beneath:
Everyone is seeking peace.

 

My tank is green, yours ain't blue, come and play, I'll kill you

 

Luminous Night

I look up to the night sky
And see a wondrous assortment of stars
A painting full of colors and shapes
Amidst the dark background
Of mystery and secrets

The stars glitter and dance
The night sings me its mysterious, ethereal melody
The night performs me its grand, but silent concert
On the stage of this luminous night.

I look up to the night sky
And wish that I could fly up
Away from my responsibilities
Away from the troubles of this world
Away from people

To explore the infinite, unknown expanse
To join in the stars' dance
Join in the galaxy's symphony
And live a life among the stars

But alas, I am bound here on this earth
and can only look up to the sky
in awe and yearning wonder
at this luminous night.

 

So This Is Life


I'm watching friends come apart from the seams
As they try very hard to accomplish all thier dreams
In the end they'll find it was just all wasted time
Groping in the dark for thier self perceived limelight

What a sorry life we live
Taking all the small things for granted to reach the top
Never slowling down to enjoy the ride
Claiming we regret nothing when it all falls apart

We'll never give attention to chances we passed up
No we'll never even acknowledge we had a way out
Full steam ahead we keep climbing till something else stops us
Working our life away as if dust doesn't await us

We finally reached the top and what do we get?
A life full of worry and doubt in every corner
Money that never takes away pain as we grow day by day older
But we'll fake that smile and say
Life couldn't be grander even if mine isn't okay

 

Think isn't that good but...still..

Tanks and tanks
Climbing ranks and ranks
Winning and loosing
Laughing or Crying
Hitting others or being beaten by others
Eating mud or dancing on rug
shellshock live it is
shocking others or being shocked by others
is a normal thing here but,
hatting it is an abnormal thing anywhere.
