There’s a shadow of a ghost
Creeping towards
Reincarnation
They lived on a mountain top
Clean air, blonde hair, uniform blood
Now packed in confinement with the others
And they feel no emotion
And they feel no empathy towards
Them alien fiends
Butterfly rants
Snowflake rants
Soon
Soon
Be gone
Many of us will die painful deaths
Many of us will dismember
When rulers deem order to chaos
We are damned not to remember
Fear their illusions of righteous selection
Fear their echoes of chemical drones
Their army parades
Spiteful arcades
Spite
Spite
And run

This is the world I’m living in
Five seconds of hope
To sway the dope now
A life into this slavery
Walk among machinery as deity
A life trapped in conformity
This is not what you’re waiting for
Beyond your screen of mind control
Damage
Do you believe it,
Not asking for a change
Carnage
Do you conceive it
Beyond your feral rage, you liar
For those to massacrete
I only see a narrow skylight
While i lie dead awake at night
Beyond consent or i’ll descent in decadent bedazzlement
This world is ruled by leads,
By feds, by threats, by deaths by crystal meth
Always the wind blows drying up the shore
Always the sea who goes by you
Always tears keep rolling down far away in the ceiling
Always, always drive by

Mother, mother
Serpent child
Raise your demons
Without whines
Throw our halos
Down below
Where the seagulls
Overload
Don’t drink the water from me
Mother mother,
Don’t trust another
Refugee alone who
Begs at your doorstep
To rescue them
From it all
Mother mother
Don’t trust another
Famished born alone
Begging at your doorstep
To rescue them from it all
On my own way to the shore
On my own way crawling
Towards conformity of
This steep society

All our lives to depravation
Have gathered in this world
Pit bulls use to run our nations
Of vengeance and discord
There’s no one to me
Electricity
Only muscles stir
Underneath the cloak
Of a venom hoard
It’s fear within its fear
Little left to see
Little left for you and me
All our lives to depravation
Have gathered in this world
Pit bulls use to run our nations
Of vengeance and discord
One by one
We’ll be gone away
Truth or dare
We will share a way
Give it up too soon
Every other moon
To basic needs desire
Leave it all behind
On another island of deserted rocks and fire

Little prick man
Merchant ego
Dyed-up headless violet
F*ck you and your little kingdom of shit
Liar, liar pants on fire
Eat your dollars of no regret
F*ck you and your little kingdom of shit
And you wake up like a self-made millionaire
When it comes to comb your hair
You’ll eat yourself to death
These are the streams
These are roads
These are the banks that print your soul
These are the deeds
These are the sweats
Silhouettes of etiquettes
F*ck you and your little kingdom of shit
And you wake up like a self-made man of providence
But you sleep at night like a whore
You’ll eat yourself to death
F*ck you and your little kingdom of shit

This Is Pain

Ocean stopped its motion
Silent death bed
Dismembered and slandered
A white whale
Ice caps are melting
Mountains disappear
The heat sucks from the airlocks
A growing fear
The season of the rain
Will wash away the pain
Ancestors dreaming
Heavens from below
No healer, no believer
Cells end slow
Someone blamed the violence
Someone blamed the gods
Time waits for no one
In the line at the slaughterhouse
The season of the rain
Will wash away the pain
Have i trashed this garden long enough?
Rip it to pieces
Fire with no fire
Until we’re dried out
Too late, it’s too late
And now we must go
Only a lover, only a child
Breaks it and saves it
Only a mother
Carries out the weight
Of our burden state
Don’t sell your dreams away
Don’t spill your anger
As contender
Don’t kill your mind a slave
And picture yourself
As collider
The spill of the oil,
The poison of the soil
And the life void
Will break down all your schemes
Will torment from within
Will make you feel pain
Only a lover
Only a child
Breaks it and saves it
Only mother
Only mother
Rides it
And confides in it

I’m on the wire
Wander where you could be
Won’t make it higher
You’re the safety-net for me
The walls that you built
With flowers and sorrow
Border your garden of truths
The tears that you shed
Are drowning the narrow
Roads to get back to you
I’m on the wire
Wonder where you could be
Don’t make it higher
You’re the safety net for me
The sun side of the earth will never be the same
We’re reaping all the seeds from when we runaway
