Funeral Diner

Remove the head this time Or tear up the roots Whatever kills it quicker Words or poison Access to both is so easy Easier than you thought Split apart at the seams By eager hands At the slightest provaction Is your own hold that tenuous? "Friendly fire" and it...

Persistent and steadfast and ingrained. Such a beautiful thing to carry from such an early age. And held. "As high as a horses bridle", and never forgotten. But known and breathed and the sleepless nights were worth it for the knowledge and realization that th...

Safe inside still immortal my memories have no skies standing on chalk angels drawn in sidewalks building cities in dirt nothing ever made sense pressed up against the fence staring at the cars go by waiting for the bell to ring playing in the rain big yellow...

Burning, empty, misplaced feeling. Die. The pain, stings so acutely that i can't see your violence against violence, violence against violence, violence against violence, has never solved anything for you. I thought that i would be fine. But now, i know it's a...

Welcome home, this is the last stop before a bunk bed enclosed in grey the last great facade. Welcome home again. In a scheme to point the finger. Here's my trust, keep it well. Paper clipped to a forgery is where you'll find it. Welcome home again. Speak in l...

The darkness sorrounds you. The darkness shrouds everything. Movement is apparent and the movement is dangerous. All around the walls are crushing, looming as if to threaten the collapse. But this is home, the dark, the warmth. This is still home, and you know...

Can't make the pain stay forever days are gray and the sky is always within reach remember when the past was tomorrow don't burn or bury me push me away I'll fade can I have your nightmares don't know why this moment hasn't passed hollow tipped words through q...

Take the innocence free the children from their youth make them grow up before their time tell them about the uncertainly make them fear tomorrow give them the nightmares that wake you every night pour your soul onto theirs just children they all grow up they...

the rivers swelled and swept you away and the night gave way to disreguard and discussions in the form of questions while you shook your head and i tried to pretend so it all fell away fell towards an ending as i used to say but it never meant as much then and...

Place this and perceive, fulfilled this need crossed this line. Take this and live, there is no more to regret. I can see the door, and the birds are more clear than ever. No failing, no falling, no apprehension. So much more, so much clearer, and the world ha...

The first morning, the first time you realize you've laid it to rest yourself. That god died in you and you couldn't save you even then. "Lord come into my life." These scars that never heal and the clarity that allows you to feel. Enveloped, like the dead env...

out again humming that same monotony knowing yet again that familiar feeling that torn chance dream held together by just that little bit by that tiny spec of something promised can you see it yeah well maybe you'll reach it one day along with that calm pool b...

Plans made to be executed at a later point in time. The truth is what we make it, not what you see, so ask no questions. Ask no questions about us. And derisive comments, disregard, and humiliation are what we reap from trying to change....

Plans made to be executed at a later point in time. "The truth is what we make it, not what you see, so ask no questions." And derisive comments, disregard, and humiliation are what we reap from trying to change. They know now exactly where they stand and knee...

this is from the sinkholes of the uninspired this is the result of the loss of luster on life and my unsteady hands reach forward for something luminescent to grasp but my begrudging feet move to carry me back to my blue collar veracity this is planned when we...

Finished. Then we were all poisoned. The morning arrives and I'm numb. Through the fields sheeted in ice. You'll find me, we'll never have a home again. And they'll never find me again. So embrace this, it's what's left. But I'm still here, and I can still hel...

claim your place as victim in the perverse knowledge of something to fall back on with hands held so loosely as i pour the water through so many times i tried not to wonder conflicts avoided words mumbled under breath. truth buried out behind a face that advan...

Embrace this falling never ending the parchment tears at the slightest touch, and days stretch to months more easily than you could imagine. And this continues longer than you could ever believe, until the end, closer than you could see. As the signs were clea...

it returns again it returns again when you thought you left or thought you were done i swore last time was the last time and i was proven wrong again its like everything returns to you all the time but its more than that i left it i left it and walked away wit...

And it comes for us all, creeping, drawn out, or so quick you feel nothing at all. This seems to be the only way out, the only option against aiding and abetting. This is what it has come to, how far we have fallen. All it seems that is left for us is to fall...

spray painted the pot and kettle ground down sheet rock and metal rock slide mud slide land slide it's all coming down and i'm waiting for it cast out the black built up the monolith cast out the red i leave with apathy turn out come here spineless by she said...

For thousands of miles I waited for you I walked backwards through landmines but time changes everything I wished impossible things on blue stars that never came true I'm still waiting 

what we've built on the backs of every culture in our path it's just started welcome to the United States of the world who's our god? it's the dollar can you see the colors bleed to one? you think we'd get enough, but we never do satisfy our thirst what we cal...

take down the clouds and burn the town just leave me a boat so i can escape, it's too late i have no intention of calling this off this is where we'll die and wake to black and white dreams with our fists hidden behind lies tomorrow won't come the nightbuilder...

Enlightened by the storm that feeds the depression the play fell from our eyes build a confession laugh as the sky falls shadows within shadows you see it's not there remember the steep streets none were silent all were frayed I can't sleep in silence it's war...

Not there for your child to listen, to teach, to love Not seen in your eyes always underfoot in the way your blood in my veins still you have nothing to say am I alone? are you gone? is there still time left for you to rescue me? is there still tie left for yo...

Breathe in, close your eyes. This is a safe place, and easy to be alive. Held to higher standards and led along. the greater the capacity the greater the reward. And the view into the infinite the touch of always that comes to us all in time, or all at once. B...

Again the face smiles and we're left at an impasse as the trees stretch out above us and the ground seems to carry on, infinitely. Never to return, with no idea of how we got here in the first place. Is this a blank now? and is the cure worth the pain? The pen...

The soft feet stepping, the blades sharpened and the regard for life wasted away to nothing. As only one rule is kept in mind (with the heart detached from anything worth feeling). And then the fire and the death, as callous hands stop callous hearts, and even...

everything was lies and cold nothing but hidden eyes and you were bought or sold or left or ignored or were you torn down for everytime you felt and tasted only anger that dosnt burn as easily as twilight or bridges return to this again when you cant reconcil...

"We'll even take the sky away, block out the sun if we can." This has been planned for years. The reasons change with the weather and still nothing has been found but lies. The words take wing to pierce like daggers at the nape of the neck, while the back is t...

Colors shift, airwaves move and shape themselves into a perversion of what's right, how we were all fooled. And it continues to never add up. With options disappearing fast, the pacing voice and the burning hate-filled eyes make themselves out to be the only p...

outgrown these shoes long ago, standing taller shooting better the perspectives have changed cant be this way forever the new is tired and old fresh faces showing their lines lives have started and finished. watch them pass everyday watching them fall always a...

With your "burnt to the ground" And breaking haloes It's been said Once a hundred times before So say it again More posturing and masks Thinly veiled metaphors About "angels" can't hide your contempt I'm not fooled And if you think about it For more than a min...

"We are an island" he says The other man smiles and replies "We are an island indeed" In deed and in word We fool ourselves Something can be done And nothing is clear or concise As the transmission of reason And clear thinking are slowly Weeded out and buried...
