Persistent Wounds

years of destruction, punctuated by self harm
cold steel and short breaths
no end in sight
to these never ending nights
shallow and sulking
courage is fleeting
life cast with struggle
why is my heart still beating
i stand shaken
lost in rivers of fear
scars and marks
the perverse art
i stand shaken
lost in rivers of fear
denying temptation
scars and marks
the perverse art
pain is this life
cuttings that drain
baptized with pain
hanging on
while all hope is lost
sweating and heaving
my times fleeting
life wrapped in struggle
why is my heart still beating
scars and marks
this perverse art
scars and marks
of this perverse art

Cycles

were drawn in by sets to decay
feasting on sights grotesque and mundane
drink it in the unconsciousness
grind us down yet refuse to resist
mass information chokes at our freewill
manipulations telling sides, feats and ills
influence gained fires start to build
infeststations
selling lies, cheats and kills
this clever game forced to choose sides
casting much doubt where evil resides
true poison speaks as tainted word
those with power intend to watch us all burn
medias lie true victims defined
cries for facts only increase divides
when we bleed the stories lead
controlled by fear the bastards engineer
we burn as they light the fuse
when fear controls the herd there's only empty word

Sever And Burn
01:33
|
|

these hammers of despair
pound away at the soul
tempting fate a fragile flame
tears fall as black signs reign
sunsets on blackest skies
vast wounds cast our demise
how much can she take
tempting fate with every day
winds of change they slowly fade
in the abyss our choice is made
sunsets on blackest skies
vast wounds cast our demise
a mothers cry abused by lies
the blackest sky close your eyes

When Reason Sleeps

I know of tragedy
I know your tragedy
It’s grievous majesty
i know tragedy—-
gallow calls to the gods of war
lost in sleep the monsters dance
rise and fall to each bomb blast
shadows cast a forced hand binds
spoils of death fade with time
march in lock step to horrors design
Battles fought
But at what cost?
