nocturnal

This scene's alright, I don't think it was here before
Makes you forget what you came in here for
It appeals to the nocturnal breed as they lead
They're looking to feed
All watch your backs tonight
You call this enternainment? I say it's a distraction
You say it's the future, I call it counteraction
Your new's just my old being resold
We can't hear what we're told
Hit the ground running
You think you'll manufacture the coming of the new age?
Try throwing a shaky-kneed kid on that stage
And watch as the revolution is rebirthed
You can't control us, we're not of this Earth

  • Only words will last

    Rules of verse, prose and rhyme
    careful measures, line for line.
    What will withstand the trial of time
    and fires of our sorrow?

    Cloth will rip and buildings fall,
    yesteryears machines are no use to us all.
  • Bloodletting

    Make myself a new messiah,
    "Trust me," I say- they know I'm a liar;
    some good old-fashioned bloodletting,
    you take it back- I'm not forgetting
    that time they told me I was dirty-
  • HOME

    Is HOME a concept?
    If it is, it's one I don't understand

    Because my blood does not feel like it belongs in my body
    And when I hold still I can feel all the tiny pieces of pale, shapely bone holding my body together
