On My Altar Of Bones

Secret sex tears nations apart
While underlings scrape by
Societal difference causing waste
As humans die on the sidelines

Covet thy neighbour for this is capitalism
Covet thy neighbours wife for this is healthy
Honour thy father, thy mother be damned
There are many gods before me

Philosophical minds breed contempt
For governments that know best
Just follow blindly, all my sheep
The organization won't lead you astray

Drop to thy knees and worship the Dollar
Exalt the Pound and Euro
For thine kingdom is and ever will be
A hell upon the backs of the people

Dreaming of Your Divinity

As I close my eyes and drift off to sleep
I begin to dream of you
There's so many things I want to say
And so many I want to do
If you give me a chance
You could clearly see
That I am a captive
Of your figurative divinity
Not everyone thinks
The way I do
A good thing, I bet
For the world too
But there's one thing I know
I know how to love
I will always give
And I will never shove
This is the man I want to be
You helped me finally see
I owe you everything,
But everything is gone

Don't Lie To Me

I love flowers.
And I also love death.
There's only so far to go
While holding your breath

So take a minute and smell the roses
As the chlorine gas creeps up through
Seeping into all of our noses
Before we know what to do

It's nothing to be ashamed about
This fascination with dying
We all just take a different route
And being honest is better than lying

Drugs Don't Dull Pain

The smell of pussy lingers long after you leave
As I sink into sweet opiatic bliss
You left your stained panties
Laying on my nightstand

I hear the typewriter click in the kitchen
And I know you're not gone
Just writing another line
To just one more song

Stumbling I work my way towards you
Help me, I cry
I'm falling away, I think I must die
You cradle me now, forever

I feel stomach contents in my throat
As you drag me out
Nothing feels good anymore
And no one can help

It's cold outside is all I think
I hear a siren wailing
They're coming for me I know
But they'll never make it in time

It's Me... I'm The Artist

A fucking burst of inspiration
Is surging through my veins
The best drug I've ever smoked
Is pure creativity

I can't help that you are vain
I don't know how to help you
My hands are clenched in fists of rage
But I'm happy nonetheless

I'm off-the-wall and entirely
Confused with the mediocrity
No real artists anymore
Just pimps and their prized whore

But I have words I truly believe
That will never be any use to me
Take them use them as you wish
Just remember who the artist is

Tomorrow Is A New Day

Tomorrow I leave
I know this is wrong
But there's nothing left
Of this old song

I need to find new
New places and things
Fresh beginnings
And no diamond rings

The heart will lead
It always has
And plants the seed
That crosses paths

My goal is west
Or possibly north
Never knowing what
Life will bring forth

But fear not friends
My new home is grand
It's a place without ends
A place for me to stand

I'll be tall, with respect and love
No one will again belittle me
And I will always thank the man above
For showing me what I couldn't see

Escalation of Force

I am at peace
I need to rest
The battle has started
For this young vet

You'll soon come to find
That I have been nice
I have been kind
But it came with a price

The price was devotion
Which has been thrown away
With one little notion
Of things gone astray

But niceties are now gone
The happiness is past
It's a brand new dawn
And only one of us shall last

With this new day
There's only one thing to do
And nothing to say

Pretty Pretty Girl

Pretty pretty girl you know how it is
I'll give you my hand, you give me a kiss

Pretty pretty girl I know you know
You see in my heart and guide me slow

Pretty pretty girl won't you walk with me
Teach me how I'm supposed to be

Pretty pretty girl now don't be shy
You'll give me your hand and I'll wonder why
