Lying Upon the Beams (of Life)

Lying Upon the Beams (of Life)

In the isolated remains inside the dimensions of my soul
  Lays a strength to carry on.
To an eternity I am off.
The curtain hangs low over my existence,
For I have become a man of surrounded dreams,
Body lying upon the beams of life awaiting my turn;
Awaiting my future.
For my eyes, they may be blind, but I can hear and feel the wasted years,
Unnecessary tears,
Unwanted fears;
How I enjoyed the depression of those years!

As the birds nest by the lake,
I start to awake, catching the smell of this fresh new day,
I pray that the sun will never sink,
And people will think.
Think about life and all the climbs and dives.

So hello to you,
It's good to see you again.
To laugh, to cry.
To remember and forget.
It is good once again to pretend that the gold lies around the next bend,
For I see you, my friend.

Killing Floor

Killing Floor (the War Cry of People Peace)

People crying,
There are people in the streets dying;
Torn apart inside because we simply are not trying
  Out here on this killing floor.

A mother looks for her son through the tears in her eyes.
Falls to her knees, the riot was long since done.
She lost her child who went out into the night to have fun.
Mother suckles he dead innocent,
Cries for love; but has none.
We simply don't care out here on this killing floor.

A new century is growing ever so near,
For this I cry in fear.
Newly lit candle grows dim,
Soon to die out.
We've worked so hard to fade away;
Left to die on this bloody killing floor!

This is the resurrection of the sleepless mind,
Tired and waiting.
Before I slip into my final sleep, I want to hear the serpents
  War cry of people peace.
To dance in the garden of simplicity;
Stand proud and tall over the grave of stupidity.
Ravage the soul so drenched with blood.
Dance on fire until the end.
