Always remember: We are eternal; all this pain is an illusion
These are songs/lyrics/poems I wrote at work while sitting in a game and staring at the ceiling.
They only took about 10 minutes to write each, and I don't know if I will play music to them.  Let me know what you think.


Why

You can find me underwater
Swallowing my own insides
Fazed but not confused
You can hear the world pass by
The ticking has stopped but time hasn’t
Why can’t life be something more
Something more than lies and deceit
You only live once but you die a thousand times
Every time the needle is thrust
The fabric is so delicate
Reinforced by nothing save oneself
Why must we covet intangible lusts
Why can’t we be something more
Why can’t life be something more
Cuz I’m losing grip
And the fabric is tearing

Everything

My heart and soul lie naked before you
Everything I’m capable of
Everything I need and desire
Everything that fuels the mind
And feeds the hunger
Everything satiates me
Everything confuses you
Everything is cryptic to the one
Who shows nothing, but yields everything
I can taste the desire
To connect with everything
The liaison with the ever glow
Changes nothing
Everything remains a blur
A time frame of one’s life
And a Pandora’s box
If there truly is a God
Then why have we forsaken everything?

Leave

Nowhere to go and nothing to breathe
You’ve drained what’s left of me
Quarantine my heart
And usurp my prayers
Take what’s left of this decayed
Piece of shit
You’re so sanctimonious, arrogant,
Self-righteous, and holier-than-thou
Find peace in him
Fuck him more than you did my life
Implore your god to forgive your one sin
Vanity means nothing when nobody’s there
Hope for a better existence
But don’t whine when all you find is love.

What I'd Give

There’s nothing I wouldn’t give
To spend tonight with you
To touch your skin
To feel the porcelain
I’d give up forever
If you’ll say you’ll be mine today
I’ve lost my love and misplaced my soul
I thought I would find them
But you’ve captured them all
You can have my tears
Share all the emotions
I’ll be there for you when you need me most
When you’re feeling down
I’ll be your drug
I’ll shake the pains of life
And we’ll lose ourselves to now
Money can’t buy the feelings I have for you
And nothing can compare to the things I’d do
What I’d give to live my life with you

Anymore

I’ve been looking in the mirror
Trying to find you
But nobody’s there
An empty soul, a shattered heart
You took them both and ripped them apart
You disturb me, I believed you
You broke me, I used you too
Now all I have is your memories
Times when fireworks burst inside me
And times when you had my trust
You said you needed more than lust
Fuck your God, fuck your Heaven
Leave and take what’s ever been
Cuz I don’t need your shit anymore
I’ve got much more to live for

Death

Twisting around the endless void
Not quite on the edge
Not exactly thrust at the center
Permeating energies draw you in
But dissipating feelings leave you here
Don’t tell me to join you
I’m already twirling
By and by I come to realize
That this black hole is an illusion
Like a pendulum set in motion
By the hands of a deity
Nothing can stop the ride
But strength can slow the catalyst
Because the road to Hell
Is paved with Heaven’s bones.

Shadow

French confetti pouring down my face
Such a sacred grove
Nobody can take what we have here
Nobody can fathom the power that radiates
From the deepest recesses of the soul
Dwelling on the past
Kills the future presently
Wandering the valley alone
Abandoned by nobody but still rejected
How can we hope to overcome the shadow
The one thing that never reveals itself
But is always there
No way to get rid of it
No way to calm it
No way to feed it
No way to overcome that paranoia
The hypnotic colors tempt me
And I give in to the darkness

Spirits

Physically straining against
The thread of life
Invisible to an infinite galaxy
But vital to pagans and heathens
The metaphysical strand bends to existence
And I grab on to ascend
I can feel the light leaving
My body is transcending
All the pangs cling and stick
To the magnetic impulse of the blood
Why am I shaking and trembling?
I can’t metaphysically survive
Help me
Save me from the endless sheen
And the brick wall behind it
The tantra is astounding
Memories of times when nobody cared
And eons when we were forsaken
Led to believe and pray to the cosmos
The unseen bringers of humanity
But the circumstances have changed
And the spirits are revolving

Paradox

Too far from comfort and too close to pain
Your nebula is draining me
The pressure is overwhelming and
These festering entrails can’t mediate
The feelings I impart
My heart is succinctly vulnerable
Like a vandal who rapes truth
I’ve tried consoling my emotions
Surveyed the implications that
Have resulted in my instigations
This rotten cadaver of a demon
Has usurped the knowledge required
To contain its vampirism
There’s nothing left to fear
And nothing to love
And nothing left to hold close
And nothing left to hate
My body tells me to go on
To continue down this wretched path
Paved by countless others who have
Suffered and withered and decayed
For sins that could not be repelled
Your narcissism has taught me that
Nothing can be taken for granted
Flawless beauty surrounds me
But I have no will to indulge
To partake in this last offered cup
How did I lose myself and
Reinvent the standard on this existence
Brawn encourages me and
Valor beckons me and
Wonder seduces me and
Anger rages within me
Yet Filth is all that remains
Glory was lost in the
Genesis to the present
Why can’t we just be sober?
Why have I forsaken the
Toils of experience and rather
Lusted towards the inconceivable
My time has not yet come
Yet I’ve passed the world by
My intuition tells me a secret
A Confidant
And Hell followed with Him
Before I pined away.

Stupid Leech

Parasitic germs trying to devour me
The filth is crawling over me
And this carpet of nebulae is strangling
What I thought you left me
The only thing more gullible that
A jingoist on weed is you
I fed you truth and you spit it out
Lies you sucked up never ceasing
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you had in mind?
Cause this is what you’re getting
Just like a tick you leeched
My blood and my strength
My defenses are down and
I have nothing to hope for
My head starts twirling as the poisonous gas seeps my soul
It rapes my prayers and dreams
Then leaves
Just like you

Fool

There’s no reason to feel this way
Everything that matters has yet to pass
Nothing important has already been
So why do I feel so hopeless
Surely there must be a reason
For the constant agony and suffering
That comes from inside
There has to be an answer out there
Buried underneath the vices I created
The mind can never expand
But shrinks in a flash
One setback
One difficulty
One roadblock on the path of sanity
And everything is lost
Just when the overwhelming shadow
Rears its façade of truth
I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool am I

Nature

Magenta rays streaming off the mountain tops
Like a rainbow crossing the bright blue sky
Lying here; relaxing
The grass shoots up into a million shards
And pierces the deepest fabric of my heart
The morning mist gently floats over
Caressing soft skin
Changing the meaning of love
Leaving nothing unfiltered
But everything in a beautiful trance
It’s so perfect here
Cascading waterfalls fill my soul and
Carry my spirit towards the heavens
Like the cosmic ever-glow
That is nature’s background
The hillside is populated
By thousands of rose buds
Waiting to graduate to blossoming flowers
Full of energy and life
A soothing aroma passes my nose
The shuffling of hummingbirds
Breaks my concentration and
Forces me to survey the rest
So quiet and peaceful here
How I remember the days when I came here
Dressed in white like the hues
Of lilies and dandelions
Blue jays circle overhead
Almost as if they’re taking in the scenery
Acting like an ecstatic child
Gazing up towards the stars
The sun is setting in the west
But I know it’s coming back
Lush gardens need it’s rays
And autumn leaves blush at it’s beauty
Snow descends from above and
The quiet words fade into the night’s chill
Burning in listener’s minds
With all the power of a hundred stars
Angel’s wings imbue strength
And sorrow rains down from the ruins of waste
It is far better to live with animals
Innocent of hidden ambitions
Because although hatred outlives the hateful
Nature’s spirit outlives the strong
From here, let the world be reborn

Thoughts

This cloud of despair
Hovers above my soul
Descending like a spell
Ancient and full of death
Placating the desires
That reside deep beneath the surface
Indulge in the wrath
This Knight's Templar is long forgotten
The crusade is over
Left behind by countless egos
Fearful of what might become
When lifted up against the sun
Light pierces through
Radiates around and illuminates
As if burning the skin of
The shedding of Eve
Before we gave in to vanity
Before we learned the meaning
Of what it is to live
We were perfect
The embodiment of seraphim on earth
Now just avatars of that mighty archetype
Regardless of external mishaps
It cannot be the legacy of man
To fall off the zenith
And follow the circle
That is nature's path
To stand disunited
Forsaking roots for the winding of the path
Forsaking voices for the silence of the mind
Forsaking all else for the poverty of isolation
Winter's grasp has rotted
This place of sorrow
This is what we chose
This is ambition's cost
Staring out into the glimmervoid
Phantoms become tangible
Questions lend themselves to the mind
Then vanish into the mist

Sparks

Everything is vanishing
These sacred rites fall into the chasm
Hellfire echoes ruin towards the sky
Flares break away from the pit
Seeking out the substance
Then fade away
Resisting the temptation
To leave these spectres alone
Like a sinner to the abattoire
Light diminishes the senses
And leaves a fissure
Splitting apart the foundation
Dismantling the tissue
Flames break through the veil
Stabbing away this poison
These toxins I thought were pure
These lies I believe as true
Glancing towards the moonlit wake
Illusions toy with my mind
Grappling with my intentions
To cleanse the greed away
To remove the veneer of invulnerability
To expose the innermost junctions
Of subconscience and reality
Then it comes to me
In the commencement of the departure
My shadow replaced me


Why can't we just be sober?
The site obviously isn't done yet, so check back in a little
February 2, 2004
Hmmmm I finally updated the site again with 'Sparks".' I didn't feel like doing some triple integrals in math so I decided I would write something about what we've become.  Enjoy.
