The Dark Shadows of the Mind


TEEN SUICIDE
Death is all around me,
it slowly closes in.
No stranger is my equal,
no man can be my friend.

I live a life of emptiness,
full of grief and pain.
I slowly close the window down,
it now begins to rain.

I left a note behind,
"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN".
My soul condemed to fire now,
it melts and starts to burn.

You see, I thought the world would miss me,
But it did not stop to cry.
For the selfish need of attention,
No man should have to die.

Hear me when I say this,
For on this I speak the truth.
Everyone must cherish life,
But more especially our youth!



Dying For A Drink
Death, it waits for me,
with its narrow heartless eyes.
It waits for no explination,
it hears not my bootless cries.
I began to feel a numbness, that I had never felt before.
The equvilant to the ocean's waves, crashing down to shore.

I look downward, on my body lying there on that bed,
what are these thoughts that keep flashing through my head
I try and move, I try to scream, but somthing holds me back.
Where came this emptiness, where comes this black.

The last thing I remember, I was out drinking with the guys.
Now I see my family,...Oh! how my mother sits and cries.
My life was just beginning, why did it have to end so soon?
How could I have been so blind, to allow drinking to cause all this gloom.

1 BEER, 2 BEERS, 3 BEERS, 4....AGAIN I FEEL THE NUMBNESS CRASHING DOWN TO SHORE.

Blood Red
Flow, flow down the streets,
smearing every crack...
through the gutters, around the corners...
for its humanity that you attack.

Drip, drip into the sewers..
and mix with the slime so vile.
Run through our imagination...
Enthrall us with your style.

Its you, who knows our weakness...
you can see our pain.
In the streets, you are the after math of violence...
Is society to blame.

They claim you are no problem...
of this, I do not know...why it is not said;
For you are the curse of my generation,...
Our streets now flow blood red.

Homeward Bound
~~This is dedicated to a good friend Billy....I hope she was worth it...~~
Twenty minutes of pleasure,
caused a lifetime of pain.
The results came back positive...
what a pity, what a shame.

His friends have all but left him...
people whisper, when he does pass.
The out look, along with his tearfull emotion,
Is now what he must mask.

He looks to the lord,
looking for some type of sign.
I guess he looks at him,...
for his own piece of mind.

There were so many things in life, he told me..
that he had so wanted to do.
SO many dreams now
for him that shall never come true.

Death,..it is waiting for him.
It is waiting on its dance.
Now it is I, who look to the lord...
and for Billy, I pray for one last chance.

The darkness surrounds him....
As I hear his last silent moan.
For my friend, I do not fight death....
Death has come to carry him home.

In The Line Of Duty

I fell in behind the other squad cars,
going to the scene.
God damn I felt hungry,
damn I felt mean.

I was the first to enter that familuar place,
I knew where I was going
walking all alone there,
with no expression upon my face.

Then there stood a man,
with eyes,... burning like mine.
Shot gun in hand,
I was falling behind.

Son he had said,...
In a murderous tone.
You had better keep moving
For this, now son, is no longer your home.

This I said, father...I can not do.
This is my job now DAD...please....I don't want to shoot you.
But in an instant of anger,...
I saw a loud blast.

My father had shot me,
I have to act fast.
Then there lay my father,
Dead on the floor.
My mission completed,....had I settled a score.

NOW ON THE OUTSIDE,
I AM A COLD EMPTY SHELL.
IS IT MY FATHER OR ME,...THATS NOW LIVING IN HELL.

INTO THE FIRE

Into the fire, with my desire,
I turned around to see,
that look of passion in your eyes
a look longing to be free.

Into the fire, with my desire
my heart,...it skipped a beat.
Showering you with my attention,
Rose petels beneath your feet.

Into the fire, with my desire
I cried a single tear.
Yearing for your affection
prolonging my greatest fear.

Into the fire, with my desire
You stole my heart away.
Pushing me to see the beauty,
of a long hard winter's day.

Into the fire, with my desire
you left without a trace.
Forcing me to harden my heart,
no expression on my face.

Into the fire, with my desire
for the world to understand.
Choosing to never love again,
I must suffer my desire,...a bitter man.
