Doom & Gloom

Good day to thee my worthless friend, I see you've shown your full intent
While others rally to defend, no one knows where you went
Hello to thee my part time chum, I see you fled the dragons lair
While former friends die one by one, they turn for help but you're not there
...

We come to you with outstretched hand.
We are here to liberate your land.
We remove the burden from your back.
Your enemies, we will attack.
...

How can I tell her, for I am lost for words
That hers is a love so precious and fine – a sip of elixir from one so divine
A moment so precious I want to freeze time.
...

There was a time when I was whole, in body, mind, heart & soul
When I was flawless without seam, a fairy tale a perfect dream
A single piece with no divide, with faith, hope & love inside
Complete, entire & intact. All I need, nothing lacked
...

Should I simply end my life?
Would save you all a load of pain
With the dragging of a knife
Deep across my bloody vein
...

In the dead of night while the peaceful sleep
In through my window demons creep
While all are lost in sleeps embrace
With nightmares I come face to face
...

I gazed upon this lifeless wretch
Through watered eyes and gagging stench
Amidst the bodies of his friends
Left bloodied, broken in a trench
...

I must confess that I am scared
Every moment of every day
My happiness has been impaired
I fail to keep the fear at bay
...

Glory to thee O Lord on high
O maker of all that is holy and true
Over creation your rule will apply
Divinely inspired in all that you do
...

Imprisoned in squalor, like a rat in a cage
A hopeless ignition explodes into rage
Poverty's chains cut with mocking intent
Desensitized humans with anger to vent
...

Most beautiful vision my eyes could behold
Opens before me, like a flower unfolds
Offers me kindness, a pollen so pure
Nectar of love and sorrows one cure
...

I know I’m not the only one
Who sits alone as time goes by
Whose failures mount the more I try
Whose pain just grows the more I cry
...

I feel as though my skin is taut & stretched so tightly over bone
On a rack my body caught stretched until my form has grown
I feel as though my head is cracked & all I am is fading fast
Insanity has now attacked, erasing present, future, past.
...

Look at us now in the opulent West
Fuel for a system all should detest
Watch as we lie in luxuries lap
Our belly's are full, our water on tap
...

Ode to you my dearest friend, who stood with me when times were black
I never wanted to offend, but now I've gone and can't come back.
Praise to you my confidant, I needed you to understand.
Into the grave I now descend, my life erased by my own hand.
...

As mountains dwell in timeless sleep, as seasons come and go
As oceans roll across the deep, as forests slowly grow
An evil has been gathering, a dark age has begun
All life on earth shall rue this day, the time of man has come
...

And I break bones, and it takes time
And I cut flesh, eases my mind
Nothing beats a psychos dream
...

Did you notice that shadow at night?
That moved like a wraith at the edge of your sight.
That melted away as you turned on the light.
That my love was me
...

I was placed on a pedestal and asked to perform
I was striped of my pride and open to scorn
My inner most feelings displayed to all
Yet I hold my head high and refuse to fall
...

Infectious I am, I flow in your blood
Can you feel me clawing at your veins?
I will blur the divide between death and love
I will bind you fast in rusty chains
...
