Eden

Surrounded in your incense, like a lost exotic flower
Who's longing for a down pour, but content within your shower
My tongue absorbs your taste, before my breath exhales your dew
Like nectar from an orchid, that could never bloom like you
The honey found inside, is like a sweet forbidden fruit
Discovered in a garden, where its realms are absolute
If heaven is a place, then it's in heaven where I lay
Within your warm oasis, all of Eden on display

The Best I Could Do

I never deserved you...
So your closest friends said
But those letters I sent you
They must never have read
The words I strung together
Were the thoughts I had of you
They may not be much... But the best I could do

I may have been angry...
But I smiled when I could
If I swore that I'd love you
Then I possibly would
But something in my heart, said
I may not be true to you
I tried to be honest... That's the best I could do

Those times we were happy...
They weren't meant to last
I tried to light up
But the shadows were cast
I'd look towards the heavens
Tried to will a brighter view
I never gave up... That's the best I could do

I'm sorry you're leaving
But what can I say?
You may find a lover
Who will want you to stay
I'll try to think about us
Like an old flame's meant to do
It may not be much... But it's the best I can do

The Fool You Became

I never did like ya
And maybe you knew
The worst parts of me... Ha, remind me of you
Those dark inner demons
That slipped from my tongue
Were right, even when I was wrong
And those hate filled eyes...
That stare into space
The sultry look, that resides on your face
But now that I'm older, I see it all clear
I don't hate you, its me that I fear
And I don't care...
So go on your way
Have a safe journey
And have a good day
But believe me... You'll turn out the same
And I'll be the one you will blame, for the fool that you one day became

The way you walk
With that swagger of mine
Your breath much the same, smells of Thunderbird wine
The girls that you dated...  I'd been there before
They all wanted me, so they knocked on your door
And here you are...
You're just like a clown
A clown, is all that I see
I'm wondering still, why you can't be yourself?
And why would you wanna be me?
When I'm just a guy, who lost all he had
A little bit crazy, a little bit mad
I should be more angry, but find that I'm not
Content now with all that I've got
And I don't care...
So go on your way
Have a safe journey
And have a great day
But believe me... You'll turn out the same
Though you'll be the one who's to blame, for the fool that you one day became

Tumbling Sky

When the stars above are shining
It is you that I always see
No matter if they fell from high
They could never distract me
And when the clouds decide to gather
I still see your pretty face
No matter what those storms may bring
You could never fall from grace
While the climbing moon arises
Even if it's coloured blue
I gaze above that tumbling sky
And reach right out to you
As I know that you're out there somewhere
Beneath the same old tumbling sky
And that it just takes time and patience
To unite both you and I

Crash Right Through The Sky

You know you lift my spirit
Yeah, you raise it high
Sometimes I feel I might collide or, crash right through the sky
You are so beautiful
Is there a better word?
I'm sure there must be, though right now, it's not been heard
You are a part of me girl
You are my beating heart
I know this, as it skips a beat when, we're too far apart
You're the one I turn to
You're the one I love
Continue being you, and lift my, treasured soul above
Yeah you lift my spirit
And you raise it high
So high I feel I might collide or, crash right through the sky
So high I feel I might collide or, crash right through the sky

I, Your Rastafari

Oh Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
I have lived my life by you
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari

I have...
Been taken from my land
No more free to run
Put in chains, and sold as slave
Then placed in Babylon. Placed in, Babylon
Oh Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
I have lived the best I can
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari

Every...
Tear I've ever cried
Don't let them be in vain
For, every single tear I spilled
Was done so in your name. Was done so, in your name
So Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
In life I've trusted you
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari

You have...
Blessed me with a gentle strength
I, both lamb and lion
Take me as created Jah
Return I back to Zion. Return I, back to Zion
Oh Jah praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
In death I follow still
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari

A Vulgar Display

In the labyrinth maze that we call a mind
I'm frightened of things that I'll someday find
Those flickering stills that I've locked away
May form as a film in a vulgar display
These images time has appropriately lost
Might shed some light at a deadly cost
And show the fears of a distant past
Those fragile thoughts, and the shadows cast

Sugar Rush

If you were any sweeter
I would get so sick on you
I'd lick the honey from your tongue
My sugar cane on cue
And when I started shaking
From the sweetness that I'd craved
I'd keep a little stashed away
For times I felt depraved 
You are my sweet, little, sticky thing
The pleasure I adore
You tingle through my veins
And you just, keep me wanting more
You are my sweet, sweet, delicious thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush
If I could pour you on me
I would cover me in you
I'd smother, every naked inch
That's what I'd love to do
I know this might sound crazy
But to have you on my skin
Would compliment the sweetness
That you fill me from within
You are my sweet, sweet, candy dream
The craving I adore
You tingle through my veins
And then you sweeten me some more
You are my sweet, sweet, yummy thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush

A Little War

If you find... That you might need me girl
I'll come running to your cheating arms again
Oblivious, to all the hurt you'd cause me
I'm still stinging from those vast amounts of pain
When you hit me... Well, I deserved it
As I know I wasn't wild enough for you
Every punch... You aimed, and threw upon me
Were justified I guess, and overdue
But baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do

 Your gifts of scars and bruises, I still cherish

These wounds that time itself may never heal
They show me that our love, was more than heaven
As heaven is a thing you cannot feel
Yet here we are apart, but always joined in what we had
Like a never ending battle, that we share
The pain in which we suffer, tells the story of our past
And that story tells how much we really care
So baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do

Oh baby, I still love you girl
And I know that in your heart, you feel the same
Let's fight our little war, that war we started, to the end
And we'll battle through no matter what the pain

This Mighty Ball

It's the Earth that we should worship 

Not gods and idols made by man 

This Earth that gives us everything 

Since time and WE began

She gives us Water

Food and Shelter 

Everything in life we need 

And asks for nothing in return 

No sacramental pledge or greed 

Why search the heavens?

Study stars?

Who cares if there is life on Mars!

Be thankful for her gift bestowed 

The love she gives and always showed 

She gave you life

She takes us all 

We're children of this mighty ball 

So take a moment...

Make it true...

Give thanks for all she gives to you

Those gods and idols never show 

Except of course in every war

Is that the God you'd like to know?

The saviour you've been waiting for!

The Earth rotates both day and night

Puts all her beauty on display 

And yet WE TURN to something else 

While she's in disarray 

Bury Me Standing

Bury me standing up on my feet

As I have spent a lifetime upon my knees 

Praying to gods I may never meet

Yet doing my best to abide and please

Bury me standing beneath the ground 

So I stand with pride like the ancient trees

Reaching above through the sacred ground 

To the heaven that only a dead man sees 

Pretty Lyndsey

Will you come to the cliffs pretty Lyndsey?

Will you climb to the cliff top with me?

Will you jump to the rocks down below us?

Where we'll sink to the depths of the sea 

Will you take hold my hand pretty Lyndsey?

Will you prove that you love only me?

As we fall to the rocks down below us

Where our souls on the tide shall be free 

Sex Toy

You say I'm the one, when you're needing some fun

I'm always there to rely on

Push me away, when you don't wanna play

But then you've already cum 

Im just your sex toy

Your silicon boy

A little thing you can play with

Im just a sex toy

Bringing pleasure and joy

But you don't ever wanna give

You say I'm yours, when you're down on all fours 

No inhibitions when needed

But then you fall, like you've given your all

When I want more, you've conceded 

Im just your sex toy

Your silicon boy

A little thing you can play with

Im just a sex toy

Bringing pleasure and joy

But you don't ever wanna give

Late in the night, when I'm holding you tight

Your fingers grab my attention 

When things arise, well it's not a surprise 

I need divine intervention 

Im just your sex toy

Your silicon boy

A little thing you can play with

Im just a sex toy

Bringing pleasure and joy

But you don't ever wanna give

Drown

Sinking down...

I'm gonna drown

The current takes me

Under sea 

Breathing water...

Waves above me

Crashing down 

The current pulls me

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down 

Fish in frenzy...

Food is plenty 

As I drown 

Sinking down

Under water...

Under nothing 

Here in breakdown

Sinking, sinking 

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down 

Psycho

You think you, know me well

You think you, know me well

I'm not,the man you see 

The devil, hides in me 

You think you know, me well 

You think you, know me well 

And maybe, just as well 

You do not, know me well 

NO...

I DON'T THINK SO....

YOU DON'T KNOW...

PSYCHO!

You think you, see me here 

You think you, see me clear

The man you, think I am 

Is not a, friendly man

You think you see, me here

You think, you see me here

When really, you should fear 

The man who's, standing near

NO...

I DON'T THINK SO....

YOU DON'T KNOW...

PSYCHO!

The demon, screams in me 

This devil, you don't see 

A darkness, seeps through me

And hides, the real me 

The shadows, deep inside 

Are places, where I hide 

You do not, know me well!

You do not, know me well!

NO...

I DON'T THINK SO....

YOU DON'T KNOW...

PSYCHO!

Final Wave

I sighed at your departing 

Like this farewell was an end

The plane was on the runway 

That would take my long lost friend 

I turned as you were leaving 

Where you disappeared from view 

Was this the final wave goodbye?

The last I'd see of you?

Dear brother I have missed you

Over years and many miles 

And at our warm reunion

You bestowed a gift of smiles

Where in your arms I felt the love

As strong as your embrace

Together we were young once more 

No lines upon our face 

And now you're gone again 

I sense the years are turning cold

I realise from photographs 

That I looking old

But you remain a mystery 

The life you play as planned 

And many unknown friends of yours 

Now wait for you to land 

Curse Of Me

You...

Are the curse controlling me 

Bringing out the worst in me

Treating me with such disdain 

Time and time and time again

You...

Break me down without contempt 

Bleeding me till all is spent 

Bending to manipulate 

Dragging me through love and hate

I...

Know that I could walk away

Leave yet I still choose to stay

Captured in the spell of you 

So do what you will always do

You're... 

Hellbent on abusing me 

Contented just by using me

You prey upon my fragile mind

Your darkness so unkind 

May The Light Remain

Is it possible to separate darkness from light?

When the two are embedded as one

Darkness, the aggressor. Light,  just a flicker 

Both a formidable force 

Darkness, constantly nagging

Light, calming the storm

But both feeding from the other

What would this darkness do, if the light might fail?

Would it seep through the labyrinth of mind without contempt?

Would it turn this man to monster?

Might it show him the things of nightmares?

But the light!

Yes... That flicker of hope

It keeps him from slipping into oblivion 

Keeps him from... Falling apart

But should the pilot go out!

Would that darkness become cancer?

That spreads to the soul intent on doing good

Would it choke, expel and demand it's kingdom?

The body in which it dwells

Or will that light never dwindle?

Keeping the shadow assassin at bay

Only in death then, shall the two be separated 

But in life... May the light remain 

On Returning

He returned as promised

You threw no stones, but insults 

You did not bow before his feet, but wrapped them in chains

His name, now blasphemous 

Although in times of need, you called to him

Yet now you lock him away, insane

He returned as promised

To a different world

Where man in all his wisdom, had forgotten that promise 

A Thing To Fear

In my illness

You  must not cry

Or it will be so hard to die

At my end

Don't shed a tear

Or death shall be a thing to fear

Battle Of Spirit

And so, this battle is set to begin

I will do what i can, try my hardest to win

I'll not lower my sword, lay it down at my side

Not while I still have a spirit to guide

You're first to cause pain, with your savage attack

In my weakness, I'm trying my best to fight back

This war which you started, you waged against me

It will never be over, till my spirit is free

You fight from within, in the shadows and dark

Where you run through my blood, try to put out my spark

Like a coward you hurt, from the places you hide

But my spirit is strong, it has not up and died

This battle you started, has only begun

And although you may beat me, you'll never have won

My spirit will rise, when this war's at an end

Releasing the body, it couldn't defend

And while you rejoice in that body of mine

You shall rot in the ground, till the end of all time 

This battle you waged, may have only begun

But my spirit,  has already won 

Who Is My Friend? (A Gospel Song)

Who is my friend, whenever I need one?

When all those old friends, have turned and gone

Whenever I need you, my Lord you are near me

You give me reason, for carrying on

Who is my friend, when I feel lonely ?

When all those old friends, have vanished from view

Whenever I need you, I find you beside me

Throughout the hard times, I can count on you

Who is my friend, when I'm needing guidance?

Someone to show me, which way to go

No matter the distance, that lays before me

Your guiding  light, is always on show

Who is my friend, when I'm being tempted?

Who is the one, who turns me away?

Oh Lord I am thankful, for how you protect me

And I will sing, your praises all day

Who is my friend, whenever I need one?

When all those old friends, have turned and gone

Whenever I need you, my Lord you are near me

You give me strength, for carrying on

I've Got The Blues (For Y'Baby)

I got the blues for y'baby

You should have never fell for me

I got the blues for y'baby

You should have never fell for me

'Cause I'm not the kind to fall for

And I ain't the man you think I be 

I am always on the move...

I've got a roving eye...

And when I find another, then it's time to say goodbye

I've got the blues for y'baby

You should have never fell for me

It's not that I don't love you

But I ain't the man you think I be 

I'm a womanising man...

I don't mean to make you cry...

But now I've found another so it's time to say goodbye

I've got the blues for y'baby

You should have never fell for me

'Cause my bags are packed for leavin'

And it's time to set this hound dog free 

The Perfect Storm

As the clouds, gathered high

And the sun fell from sky

Was the day, the day I was born

And the wind, sang a sad song 

As the rain played along 

It was the sound, of the perfect storm 

And my life, seemed a blunder 

In the lightning and thunder 

I was something that god came to scorn

From my baby blue eyes

You could not hear my cries

Through the sound, of the perfect storm 

And when death comes to find me

When its darkness confines me

Only temper and tantrums shall mourn 

And the thunder will play

Put my life on display

To the sound, of the perfect storm 

Little Things

Nothing says I Love You like a sweet smile

And nothing warms a heart like tenderness 

These little gifts more valuable than money 

Are what I get when you and I caress 

That sparkle in your eye as warm as sunshine

Those arms that hold me tightly as can be

These little things to me are worth fortune 

They tell how much that you're in love with me 

And every kiss you give I keep forever

Every whisper till the end of time

These gifts you give to me without a reason 

They show me that you're absolutely mine

And when I hear your heartbeat play a soft song

More beautiful than any symphony 

These little things to me are worth a fortune 

They say how much that you're in love with me

Broken Hearted Train

The train is comin' baby

Rolling down the track

Once I get on board, there will be no more turning back

I'm here to leave you darlin'

You caused me too much pain

So I'm heading out to nowhere, when i get onboard this broken hearted train 

I hear the whistle blowing 

This train is right on time

It's here to take me far away, upon its lonesome line

I guess it's over baby

You won't see this man again

'Cause I'm heading out to nowhere, when I get onboard this broken hearted train 

Well that train is getting closer

It's just around the bend

The driver's slowing down, and now our time is at an end

I thought you'd try to stop me

But I waited here in vain

Now I'm heading out to nowhere, and I'm leaving on this broken hearted train 

Carry Me Through (A Gospel Song)

When I walk, through the valley

I will not shed a tear

I'll not worry, I'll have nothing to fear

And the life, that I lived

I'll have left it with pride

As I walk, with the Lord at my side

Yes the Lord, he will find me

He will heal and unbind me

And lead me to pastures of new

He shall guide and protect me 

With a smile He'll direct me

Give me strength, that will carry me through

No more mountains, to climb

No more burdens to bare 

I will know, that He heard every prayer

And the gates, they will open

And shall welcome me in

I will hold my head high, next to Him

And the life I have lived

'Till the day when I died

Where I walk with the Lord at my side

Yes the Lord, He will take me

And His love shall awake me

As He leads me to pastures of new

He shall guide and protect me 

With a soft voice direct me

Give me strength, that shall carry me through

Yes the Lord will be with me

In His greatness, forgive me

And His strength... It shall carry me through 

Sorry Heart

I've tried to change a lifetimes worth of sinning

I swear I tried the best a man could do

I've rolled so many dice but I ain't winning

And I gambled with the trust I found in you

But I remain the sinner, nothing changes

These dice I roll keep coming up the same

I've never read the book but turned the pages

And I guess my sorry heart holds all the blame 

I thought that I could somehow be forgiven 

That maybe all my wrongs would wash away 

As if this life of mine could be worth livin'

Yet I struggle through with every single day

And I remain the sinner, nothing changes

These dice I roll keep coming up the same

I've never read the book but turned the pages

And I guess my sorry heart holds all the blame

The road on which I've travelled, never ending

The mountains that I've climbed forever high

This sinner man by rights should be descending 

Not tempted by the angels in the sky 

So I remain the sinner, nothing changes

These dice I roll keep coming up the same

I never read the book but burned the pages

And I guess this sorry heart holds all the blame

A Better Man

I never thought you'd leave me

Though i know i hurt you many times

This foolish man hell bent on telling lies

I saw the pain upon your face

And hung my head in such disgrace 

As love was all i saw within your eyes

I wake with every dawning new 

I turn my head to look at you

This lonely bed so empty you not here

The pillow that you slept on

Still lingers with your perfume 

But the scent of you will slowly disappear  

I promised you forever

And i swear that i meant every word 

But here i am, a sorry man inside 

I know i pushed you far away

So far that you could never stay

And how you feel is truly justified

Now lonely days turn nights alone

I long for you to come on home

Yet chances are that's something you won't do 

And soon enough you're sure to find 

A loving man who'll treat you kind 

A better man, and one that's made for you

Devil Of Destruction

I never saw you comin'

But i knew that you'd arrived

You'd left a trail behind you

And not many men survived 

You devil of destruction 

You ain't gettin' hold of me

It's not that you're bad lookin'

I'm just satisfied and happy being free

You broke the hearts of many

You left them in a mess

No warning you were leaving

And no forwarding address

You devil of destruction 

You ain't gettin' hold of me

You might know where I'm livin'

But i ain't about to give to you no key

Well you didn't say goodbye

And you never heard their pleas 

You didn't blink an eye 

While they were begging on their knees

You devil of destruction 

You ain't gettin' hold of me

I'm not a man for fooling

And I promise you a fool I'll never be

You're flirting like a woman

I ain't falling for your charms

I'm not the kind of man

That's gonna wrap you in his arms

You devil of destruction

You ain't gettin' hold of me

You might look just like an angel

But that doesn't hide the devil that I see

If you persist in tryin'

You'd better stand in line and queue 

And someday you'll discover 

That I ain't the man for you

I'm the master of destruction

And i wrote the game you play

I cheat my way to winning 

And the losers are the ones who always pay

Hard To Find

I've always loved you darlin'

From the moment i first saw you

And those years we've spent together, have been kind

Yet in recent times i've needed you

Like lovers are supposed to do

But darlin' you've become so hard to find

That photograph upon the wall

Our wedding day in warm July 

You hold the piece of paper, that we signed 

The new ring you were wearing

Said our lives were planned for sharing

But darlin' you've become so hard to find

It seems the more i love you

The further you then drift away 

And here i am, just being left behind 

The promise that i made still true

Is one that wants to stay with you

But darlin' you've become so hard to find

Although you still remain here

I'm not so sure that's what you want

You never share those worries on your mind

I want so much to kiss you

To say how much i miss you

But darlin' you've become so hard to find

I long so much to kiss you...

Just to let you know, how much i miss you

They say a fool in love is often blind

But no matter what i say

You wouldn't hear my pleadin' anyway

As darlin' .... You've become so hard to find

If I Were To Fall

If i were to fall...

Would you reach out your hand?

Forgive me my sins 

Those against your command

Would you cut loose my binds?

That may tether, and hold

Redeeming my soul 

That i cheaply sold

If i were to fall...

Will my spirit rejoice?

In my final breath

Will you hear my voice?

If i changed my ways

And i saw you as lord

Would you then raise me up...

Or bring down your sword?

If i were to fall...

Would you spare me some time?

To untangle my thoughts

In this mad pantomime 

I will lift high my hand

So that you see me well

Unless you demand

That i fall into hell

If i were to fall...

Would you pity your son?

Who has carried your doubt 

When he shouldn't have done

If i was a fool...

I was blinded by truth

All i have asked

Was a sign of some proof 

If i were to fall...

On your summoning day

I fear if i crawl

That i might lose the way

In the dark empty void 

For souls beyond repair 

Would you banish your son

All alone in there?

If i were to fall...

Would you take hold my hand?

Deliver me strength 

In the hope i might stand

Would your angels then sing?

When a lost son returned

Or will they simply laugh loud

As his body burned

If i were to fall...

Would you shine me your light?

Make the dark disappear 

To show everything bright

If the stars are my path

Let their guide be precise 

So they lead to the door

Of your paradise

You May Not Be An Angel

You may not be an angel

There are no wings i can see

Angels fly high, in the bright blue sky

But still, you're an angel to me

You may not be a flower

Yet in the way that you sway

Flowers in spring, are a beautiful thing

But it's you, that I'd pick anyway

You may not be the sunrise 

Yet you still wake with a glow

And all is fine, because you are mine

And baby, i want you to know

You may not be an angel

But with these eyes which I see

It's very clear, when I'm beside you here

You look like... an angel... to me 

Soul Searcher

I had walked for many days now, I was battered, I was burned 

I carried with me nothing, just the things that I had learned 

My pockets were all empty, yet i wasn't really poor 

I had the clothes that dressed me, and the shoes i seldom wore

I worked when i could find it, i wasn't hard to please 

All i needed was some french wine, some bread and maybe cheese 

When my belly wasn't empty, it was time to move then on

When a new day came a-calling, i had already gone

I would follow to roads somewhere, wherever that they led

When stars shone high above me, i'd find myself a bed

I'd wake with every morning, with a song sung by a bird 

It was the sweetest chorus, that this man had ever heard 

When the rain came down a-poring, and the clouds above were gray 

I'd try to wash my soul clean, and my sins I'd scrub away

It wasn't that I'm so bad, as i did all that i could

But I'm not so sure my spirit, was as honest or as good 

As others walked toward me, they would ask where I had been

I'd tell them of places, and of the beauty I had seen

They paid me no attention, they were all just being nice

As they thought to see such beauty, that there had to a price

Sometimes I'd need to find me, a place where i could sit

And here beside this an old friend, i sat alone with it

I rested my tired body, on the rough bark of a tree

Absorbing all its wisdom, as it tried to comfort me 

This journey that i'd travelled, was the spiritually kind 

To try  and find redemption, and to try to clear my mind

I needed me an answer, and i found it somewhere here

When the gentlest of breezes, whispered softy in my ear

I spent my life just walking, till the day that i then died 

Contented with my journey, and i lifetime simplified 

The last thing that my eyes saw, was the path i'd walk at death

The map of the stars above me, as i took my final breath.

Sorry Situation

There ain't no point denying, I ain't lying

That our love affair was real

Or how could you explain, this kinda pain

That's how a broken heart should feel

If i can't sleep at night, or hold you tight

It never was infatuation 

I wait here all alone, for you to phone

And that's a sorry situation 

I never thought you'd go, so you should know

That wasn't ever my intention 

And if i made you cry, then say goodbye

I guess that i forgot to mention

That I'm in love with you, I thought you knew

I was as stupid as a fool could be

Now I'm longing for the kiss, I've come to miss

So won't you please come home and back to me

If you should stay away, another day

You know I'd understand your reasons

But not to have you here, is like a year

Without it's ever changing seasons 

The rain would fall all day, and come what may

There wouldn't be your inspiration 

These words to you i send, in hope to end

This sad and sorry situation 

Don't Promise Her Love

You can send her pretty flowers

That were freshly picked in spring

You can write her some romantic song

That your heart would gladly sing

You could gift a star from heaven 

One that twinkles high above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

Then she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Like the fool she made of me

You can buy that girl a necklace

You can buy that girl a ring

You can take her to the fashion shops 

Let her choose 'bout anything

You can fly her on a holiday

Where the sun shines bright above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

Then she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Like she did one time to me

You can hire her a carriage 

Take a horse ride in the park

You can even steal a tender kiss

When the daylight turns to dark

You can walk her to the doorstep 

While the moon smiles up above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

And she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Of the likes of you and me

Runaway

I'd lived in Guernsey all my youth

My vacant eyes, the only proof

I'd felt so low, i couldn't stand

As no one took me by the hand 

I knew one day, i'd run away 

No reason here to want to stay 

Left when i was sweet sixteen 

To places i had never been

I'd not been on a train at all

Seen buildings standing high and tall 

Or people of a different race

A smile came to my angry face 

I found myself at home in Leeds 

I gained all that a young man needs

Forgot the place i'd left behind 

A past so cruel, and so unkind

I moved into a caravan 

I'd found myself some freedom, man

I thought that i had everything 

This no one had become a king

And then when i hit 32

I did just what i always do

I packed my bags and left this place

I didn't leave a single trace

You know just how this story ends 

I said goodbye to all my friends 

And travelled south towards the sea 

To find the real me

Technology

I am sick to death of technology 

It's really starting to grind on me 

People walking around like drones 

Clinging onto their mobile phones 

Cameras watching your every move 

Without a care we might disapprove 

We are all in their system and no ones free

They've imprisoned us all with technology 

Maybe there could be a code to crack 

A satellite someone might dare to hack 

To bring an end to insanity  

And bring us back to reality 

Waco, Texas, 93

Smoke rose from the building high 

Ignited by the FBI

As tanks came crashing through the walls 

And CS Gas filled cluttered halls 

Children cried, and mothers screamed 

While outside agents planned and schemed 

These people were no threat at all

But waited for their god to call

Flames then spread from room to room 

This church of prayer became their tomb 

For all inside would burn and die 

Murdered by the FBI

Waco, Texas, 93 

America, the brave and free

Where bullies rule in uniform 

On anyone who won't conform 

And then the lies of their attack 

The claims of "We were fighting back" 

This bullshit that we call "The Law" 

Provoked this holy war

Innocents Lost

My innocents lost at an early age 

That innocents, replaced with rage 

An anger i could not control 

As darkness moved into my soul 

Emotions now so hard to show 

This stranger most will never know 

Behind my mask, no one can see 

The hurt that torments me 

I know I'm good, i try so hard 

But everything i have is scarred 

I break the things i love the most 

To feed my inner, darker host 

And when I'm left with only pain

Contentment rears its head again 

As losing everything i own 

Is all i've ever known 

The Darkness of a Serial Killer

When the killing starts

There is no mercy

No remorse, or regret... Only pleasure

I am not a butcher (So to speak) 

Neither am I a soldier

I am a monster 

I am an architect 

A maestro  

A composer of the maddest symphonies (No sympathies)

The darkness my only friend 

I am saturated in it (Inside and out)

It is my cloak

My hiding place

My sanctuary  

Without it all would be blind 

As light would only show the truth 

That in reality, I am merely a man 

Yet that reality, is a lie 

Day time is a place of smiles

False grins and false salutations 

But in darkness, there is only fear 

As monsters only come out at night 

And how i love the night 

It protects me in its shadows 

It comforts me in my crimes 

It lets me do what i do best... Kill

1 2 3 Crusaders

1 2 3 Crusaders, marching into war 

4 5 6 7  Don't know what's in store  

8 9 10 11 Rise upon the hill

12 13 14 15 Charge in for the kill

16 17 18 19 Fire from up high 

1 2 3 Crusaders, fall and sadly die

4 5 6 7 Turn and start to run

Sandman

Let me, enter you 

Here... There... Is... No... Curfew 

Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut you deep 

This nightmare's real, there is no sleep 

Here we are, the sandman's here 

There's no escape, so you better fear 

Here we lie, just you and me 

And pain is what i'll guarantee  

Let me, let me in 

Just close your eyes, and we will begin 

Fight, fight, fight, fight, beat you dead

I'm not warmed up, until I'm seeing red 

Here we are, the sandman's here 

There's no escape, so you need to fear 

Here we lie, just you and me 

And pain is what i'll guarantee

Let me, break you in 

I'll shatter every bone underneath your skin

Shake, shake, shake, shake, every nerve 

Madness is the only gift that you deserve 

As here we are, the sandman's here 

There's no escape, so you better fear 

Here we lie, just you and me 

And pain is all i'll guarantee

Here we are, the sandman's here

There's no escape, let me make it clear

Here you'll bleed, eternally 

The sandman will not set you free
