My reflection staring back at me from the pool of river symphonies
A bullet to the back of the brain, it's all the same when you're always gone
I miss when I felt normal but I don't remember when I had trouble recognizing
I was never going to be like you
Clashing violins sprayed over a backdrop of a thousand broken bass lines
Dripping on the wet concrete, it's so wrong of you to love me
I thought I could pull out of this, maybe make me worth something
But I've come to realize, it's all lies
Plug the radio into the socket that was never used and
Pump it up to drown your bleeding conscience, ignore me
I miss when all these tradegies
Numbers on a screen, falling like the warriors in an unknown land
Bleeding us dry of our existance, reducing humanity to colors and sequences
Squares of multicolored dreams meld with science
The soul is nothing but static blue and effervescent
The earth surges forward yelling it's curses to the wind
But we are busied and driven to insanity by the recurring slamming of oil presses
Damned be the earth, damned be everything we ever need
We are independent. We are criminals. We are nothing more than children with magnifying glasses.
Our guns glint in the light, as the sweeping motion destroys what we disagree with
War is inevitable, unes
Writing with the fury and pain of these past years
Dredging up the momries purposefully forgotten
Living with the mind the genius admire
And the insane lament
A misunderstanding of epic servitude
Fame past the life they suffer to contain
We can only enjoy recognition while we are breathing
How ironic it only truly comes in death
An ignorace, or perhaps apathy
A forgotten art, now the template of lies
An insult to those who truly suffer these relapses
The false poets run rampant with their false failures
The template for a thousand letters
Love, death, forgiveness, striking out in revenge
What irony, that the very line that saves
The Writings on these Walls by jackandmeg2001, literature
Literature
The Writings on these Walls
This house is getting so old
There once was those who would fill these halls
Sadness of life
They have eternally expired
But still, these walls
They will never die
A photo print of memories
Preserved for an eternity, a verse in the book of regrets
Maybe I should add my own
But if I were to defile this record of which I have no part
What would that defiling be?
What would that defiling say?
Would I author a record of happpiness?
Laughter, however hollow and full of lies it may be?
Or would I scribble words of truth and insecurity
It would be the first real truth I've ever conceded to
My scars are testaments enough
I may heal m
Falling into absolute uncertainty
Isn't half as fun as it seemed to be
Everyone thinks it's cool to be crazy
How fun do you think it is to be me?
Raging water up above
Dripping from the cieling, cold as fuck
I guess I'm SOL, out of luck
Fugazi, I'm surrounded, I'm so hounded
I can't see anything
I can't feel anything
I can't touch anything
I am not anything
Waiting at the bus stop for the five o clock
Watching the time run by, slow as a rock
I guess god's blessings have run out of stock
Can you feel the winds electric shock?
It's colder than I ever remembered
We took a trip down here every november
It was you and I and nobod
A gun shot fires above the crown
Echoing through our bones to the ground
Drop to the floor, covered in war matter
Familiar red blood spitter and spatter
Thought it was safe, so far away
But deep down we knew it would happen one day
Smell of gas in the air, gun powder in my eye
Someone help Jordan, he doesn't deserve to die
I stand and run, reaching for cover
When a bullet intersects like a kiss from a lover
As the blood runs out so does our luck
"Shoulda stayed down the stupid fuck"
And so the war rages, from brother to brother
How will they explain to the innocents mother?
Standing on the sidewalk minding our own
When our fate
I don't want to be live in a country who's relation
To the primary goal of social segregation
Is fixed, imposed, and binded
By the very absent minded
That drag as to fight
And shoot through the night
The politicians started the war so why should they fight it
I've made my mistakes, let me try to right it
So what if I'm rich or poor?
Or am I rich or poor before I walk through that door?
As diverse as a verse in a poem
Shouting to the dying buildings "I am alone"
A slanted eye, a dying sky
A man with a plan, who with a rattled sigh
Let go of his misconceptions
That were born with no redemptions
Relinquishes what he thought
And
