Black raven Blue sky
White clouds Wonder why

Watch (watch)
...

Blatantly disregarding the orders
set down in dark oiled stone
punishment will follow though
they say with a moan
...

Rushing in high mountains towering
rushing through and through
mists a looming
rocks a glooming
...

Sometimes I feel like the world just isn't real
and the shine that lights everyone else's eyes are lies
and sometimes I feel- I think- like I'm on the brink
of sinking down, into the underworld, the darkest seas
...

Moon wanes
waxes and wanes
each night changes
but stays the same
...

Staring at the blank
what to fill it with?
My ideas have been used
already
...

They dismembered me
like (like) they remembered to
they took (took) the parts of me
that in the cold sky flew
...

Sometimes when I gaze out
across the blue ocean and sea
those times when I gaze out
I wander what I really see
...

They waft in the darkness
Those red headed beauties
of spilled blood in a curling pool
And the eye in the middle, the black pupil
...

Fire
bouncing turning twisting turning
raging up firing down
destroying the very ground
...

How can you honor those
who smile as they shoot
Who laugh when the gun recoils
And a man falls, blood on his boot
...

Charging towards the front line
Weight of rider on my back
Pass those bloodied corpses
The scent of breath they lack
...
