A crack forms in the foundation
Fault line through your defenses Illuminating the essence Once clouded by a myth Store bought conformity Force-fed duality, I warp reality The comfort that you will find, As you remain hidden. The light betrays, casting your true self away, They remain blinded. As Vanity possesses me I am further away Gripped by a belief in empty words Driven by a need to prove The shell may wither But the fire burns eternal You hide behind ...cower... The light that blinds Will never find What burns inside You remain blind Behind the light |

When you never know
Is when it's always there, It seemed so clear... The slightest touch To catch the breath, It turns it all around Single path that I can see, Emptiness devours me Enlightened by the cold. It overcomes the torment. (What if I could bring you back?) Enlightened by the cold Enough to burn through walls Built on anguish Can I be revived? Let it hit with force Strong enough to blind. The numbness heals. My worth is only defined by the nest disaster |

Feel the cold hands upon me
Recollection of my betrayal My betrayal! It is not the pain inside yourself That tears the deepest wounds I drift along suspended in shadows Cold memories escape the haze With sobriety comes recollection It is not the pain inside yourself That tears the deepest wounds It is the pain that you create That shreds your very soul A specter of despair Built on good intentions It is not the pain inside yourself That tears the deepest wounds It is the pain that you create That shreds your very soul |

This time released security
Controlled dose of tranquility Forgetfulness washes over me Put to rest the voices of insanity Only the cinders remain As another night Becomes a yesterday Come on! Anesthetize the panic It is what drives the weak You're gone! Anesthetize the panic Putting all uncertainties to sleep Not an altered state of mind But a safer place in an unsafe world Within the nearness of death Rapture in the skip of a heartbeat |

Impermanence is always swift
Treasures of this world are fleeting Our eyes blinded from the gift Within the way there lies the meaning All natures are pure All appearances are empty Shrouded in sensation and delusion Consumed within unknowns Shrouded in sensation and delusion All will collapse and fall All wisdom is treasured All wealth is a shadow Inexpressible in words Embrace the stillness Enless source, Eternal bliss Absence of the mind is liberation |

Where has it all gone?
Have all of the words escaped? Inspiration on demand Emotions all displaced 'And I will wander endlessly Seeking all the answers that I let slip through my fingers. I will wander endlessly Seeking all the answers that I let slip and fall away.' Turn it all around It melts into sound (unfolding... ever growing) Torn from my rest Though I still fight to stay. The images dissolve As the day invades A second to react The mind too slow to act (unfolding... ever growing) Dornw the voices of restraint Make them choke to silence Incinerate the ropes And embrace the hope (unfolding... ever growing) Splintering the doors Free the mind to soar (unfolding... ever growing) Turn it all around It melts into sound |

We are given the gift of creation!
We are given All of the light And purity of the universe We are the ones Who will create The snarling beasts of human nature The world withing myself ALL IS ONE! The power of I and I True piece of mind Is not bestowed Upon us by the heavens. The evils of man Are spawned within The confusion of our own mind. Hiding the purity that flows From the root of which we rose ALL IS ONE! |

The ghosts of past failures
Facing the reality Of our own imperfections The waves crash without warning Overwhelmed and short of breath Never able to escape The bloodstains upon your hands I AM! Still bleeding you From wounds you've never known I AM! Still bleeding you From wounds you've never known The core of our being Torn out and cast aside I never looked this far away Never saw what lies ahead In the midst of false comfort The scars were hidden but never healed |

Man has programmed himself to die
A death wish has been ingrained Almost with our first breath We are taught to expect our last Science has done its best to choke off The true instincts of mankind Death is impatient and thoughtless Mortality is a disease of the mind Embrace the gifts before you Paradise is underfoot Eternity is within Lost site of the bounty before us Boundless resource of pleasure and plenty Living for an intangible In a future clouded with doubt One step forward is one step deeper into the grave Breathe... breath of life |

Scream out against the glass
The sound reflected unable to escape Desperate to connect Lashing out at words that fail to appear Bound In Silence The Failure Of Sound (never learned) Instinct urges on As the mind creates its own obstacles Waging internal war Between the objects and the abstract Eloquence of the inner voice The poetry of the condemned A stream of consciousness Never to be understood |
