Searching for Truth

All that I want to know
Am I the man I’m supposed to be
For I fear I’ve become
Encapsulated in depravity
All that I want to know
Was it my destiny
To lose hope in humanity
And be alone for eternity
All that I want to know
Is why I no longer have
The desire to find
One who will care for me
All that I want to know
Is will anyone hear
My soul screaming
Into eternity

Burning with Hate
06:58
|
|||
Strapped into a machine of pain
Recurring visions cloud my mind
Blistering rage fills my ears
As pulsing anger results in kind
Time and space are turning red
As flashing visions cloud my eyes
A world of unrelenting hate
Delicately woven within the lies
My soul escapes my body’s confines
As I dance with images of pain
The rage that’s built up since my birth
Is going to drive me blindly insane
The violence builds up to a crescendo
As I feel my body burning with hate
Gritting my teeth as my body twitches
The rage I’ve felt will not soon abate
The restraints come loose and now I’m free
To destroy whatever gets in my way
I see the ones who’ve put me here
And now with their lives, they must pay
Grabbing the nearest metal object
To pound and thrash their bodies dead
I beat them to death and destroy the machine
That fueled the rage within my head
Incinerating rage
Consumed my mind
Violence in my wake
Victims of the grind
They tried to destroy me
Yet murder was their fate
For they left me
Burning with hate

A New Beginning
04:08
|

A new dawn smiles upon me
The sun’s warmth kisses my face
This is a day, free from confusion
This is a day, free from your lies
I wanted to know where you would lead me
I had a feeling you’d lead me astray
Indeed you did, but I’ve regained my focus
And the ties between us have been slain
A fleeting hope has now fled
Yet I have no more tears to shed
A new beginning has arrived
Now I can get on with my life
I step out into the world
Yesterday’s pain I no longer feel
I still can’t say that I trust your kind
Yet the pain you caused has left my mind
I wanted to know where you would lead me
I had a feeling you’d lead me astray
Indeed you did, but I’ve regained my focus
And the ties between us have been slain
A fleeting hope has now fled
Yet I have no more tears to shed
A new beginning has arrived
Now I can get on with my life

Under a Dying Sun
05:31
|

Stuck in the past
A world of fading memories
The times you had
And the joy that came with them
Now you sit
Entrenched in existence
But what you desire
Can never be recreated
Clinging to a sinking hope
Reminiscing on a broken dream
The times you’ve had will never be returned
It’s all enough to make you scream
Wasting all of the time that’s left
The sickness in you sours your mind
Pale and ashen your flesh has become
But to your health, you’ve become blind
The further in you go
The closer you become
To triggering your end
Under a dying sun
Now you are surrounded
By all kinds of people
But it’s almost like
They’re not really there
You’re so involved
In visions of your past
That you don’t care
About the future that awaits you
Clinging to a sinking hope
Reminiscing on a broken dream
The times you’ve had will never be returned
It’s all enough to make you scream
Wasting all of the time that’s left
The sickness in you sours your mind
Pale and ashen your flesh has become
But to your health, you’ve become blind
The further in you go
The closer you become
To triggering your end
Under a dying sun

Rise Above
02:43
|

Emotional scars run deep
Deep in my soul
The pain that I feel
Is out of control
The lack of human compassion
Has afflicted me
Driving me closer to
Depravity
But that’s alright
’Cause I’ll rise
Above
The pain that won’t bring me down
No it won’t bring me down
’Cause I’ll rise
Above
And beat the weakness
From my soul
I turned my back
On a girl who cared for me
Although we made up
The same, things would not be
After all these years
I wonder what might have been
She’d probably still be here
And still be my friend
But that’s alright
’Cause I’ll rise
Above
The pain that won’t bring me down
No it won’t bring me down
’Cause I’ll rise
Above
And beat the weakness
From my soul
Oh, I’ll beat it from my soul
’Cause I’ll rise
Above
And nothing will stop me
Nothing at all!

It all began one fateful day
When you invited me your way
All the secrets you shared with me
If only from these memories, I could be free
I know I’ll never be free
From the thoughts of you in my head
Yet now you mean nothing to me
So you might as well be dead!
Consumed by the pain you expressed
To a younger age, I regressed
An age full of pain and despair
Yet you weren’t concerned with how much I cared
I know I’ll never be free
From the thoughts of you in my head
Yet now you mean nothing to me
So you might as well be dead!
The final chapter was not written well
As the bitterness does still dwell
But now you’ll only get one thing from me
Complete and utter apathy
I know I’ll never be free
From the thoughts of you in my head
Yet now you mean nothing to me
So you might as well be dead!

I Want Your Love

Oh baby baby, I want your love
In your eyes, I see the stars above
Oh baby baby, I want your love
You set me free like the flight of a dove
Oh baby baby, I think you’re neat
You’re full of sugar, it makes you sweet
Oh baby baby, I think I love you
Nothing in the world could be more true
Oh baby baby, you make me smile
No other woman has done that in a while
Oh baby baby, will you be mine?
I think my life with you would be just fine
Oh baby baby, I want your love
In your eyes, I see the stars above
Oh baby baby, I want your love
You set me free like the flight of a dove

Thoughts of Her
06:20
|
|||
I loved her, yet she loved me not
For independence was not something she sought
Stifled for years, but it let her escape
The unjust crime of stepfatherly rape
She, a lost soul, on a search for hope
Thoughts of her daughter helped her cope
As did the friendships she acquired at times
Though some of those friends were involved in crimes
She was unfortunate in her storied past
Her list of misfortunes was indeed vast
She sometimes felt like the scum of the earth
So she put me down to increase her self-worth
I was in love, so it was alright
At least until that one fateful night
Her boyfriend was there, and they fondled and kissed
I did not take that well, it made me quite pissed
The future was bleak, as my love did abate
For when I would see her, I would burn with hate
The day finally came when I saw her no more
The relief that I felt filled me to my core
Now much time has passed, there is no more pain
I’ve found my desire to love once again
Yet sometimes it’s painful to call up her name
As a field of heather burns slowly in flame

Merciless Winter
15:28
|
|||
Oh, wintry nights
The wind burns my face
As I walk alone
Through these hallowed lands
The only light to be seen
Is the glow of the moon
Which is seen from time to time
Gazing through the clouds
The snow is fresh
And delicate to the touch
Just like the flesh
Of an elegant woman
Continuing on
Through the wake of the storm
I must find some place
To rest my bones
It’s getting colder
The usefulness of my clothes
Is beginning to wane
As I grow cold to the bone
My joints are stiffening
My body is trying to give up
But my mind
Will not let it succumb
Oh, how much longer
’Til I find shelter
And can escape this
Merciless winter?
For my body is going
And my will is weakening
As I contemplate
Lying down in the snow
But will there be anywhere
For this old soul to rest?
But will there be anywhere
To shelter me from the cold?
But will there be anywhere
That I can cleanse my body?
But will there be anywhere
That I can call home?
As I continue
I wonder what life has in store
For me in the future
And I am left with two options
I could give up
Lie down in the snow
And wait for the winter
To end my existence
Or I could continue
Fighting this weather
And try to find a kind person
Who’d let me stay the night
Being a man of virtue
I cannot end my life this way
There’s too much more to experience
So I continue on my way
But will there be anywhere
For this old soul to rest?
But will there be anywhere
To shelter me from the cold?
But will there be anywhere
That I can cleanse my body?
But will there be anywhere
That I can call home?
