Nothing seems to matter anymore, all our words have gone to waste. I’m still chained up by our shadow’s law, still shackled by this face.As the walls around our prison crumble, and the outside world comes flooding in.hollow memories of voices rumble,cutting daggers through our skin. Kaleidoscope scenes haunt the weary eyes of revolutionaries on... Continue Reading →
Everyone is waitingbut every day’s the same.Everyone’s debating, but the questions still remain.I cashed in my chips at the first sign of trouble, now I’m running out of room.I found my heart at the bottom of a bottle and then I broke that bottle in two.Will the earth keep on turning, long after we’re all...

Last night I said goodbye.Packed up my mind, my heart, your lies.Tomorrow came, in its inevitable way.And the months became memories, soon fading away.

Tell me all your fears,let me make everything okay.Depend on me and smother me,I’m lost without your needs.I’ll beg for freedom... Continue Reading →

His journey is a lonely one, He travels through the night, On a long path to nowhere, Just looking for his light. Living his life out in the open, But still hidden from everyone, On this long path to nowhere, What has driven him to run? She rides in the daylight, Hair gleaming in the... Continue Reading →
The beggars they've got the best of you,they all want to see you fail,year after year you tread this path,sing your sordid tale. Oh wave your magic wand,my learned vagabond,wish yourself some whisky,chase yourself some tail. But where at the bottom of the bottle,is the meaning of your life?Another year won't kill you,you've gathered tokens... Continue Reading →
