"Sunrise" (poem)

Relax, stay silent,
fade into the sheets,
the world isnt turning if i don't see the sunrise,

take a breath, listen,
im deaf, halfway to blind,
the world isnt turning if i don't see the sunrise,

Direction lost,
compass gone,
map torn,
................................hopeless,

distractions ready,
judgement quelled,
eyes closed,
.................................bliss,

the world isnt turning if i don't see the sunrise

Untitled (poem)

Disillusioned and destroyed, the irony persists,
in waiting for the past to show up, and dying to exist,
Performances are mastered, and we dont miss a word,
we close our eyes, and hold on tight, and hope they wont observe,
Selfish and sophiscated ways of pulling strings,
convince yourself that things have changed, and how we can all be kings,

"Falling Apart" (song, recording in progress check back soon for mp3)

Think fast, you can still act slow,
Whenever it comes around,
I wont look up, I cant see ahead,
The future it burns my eyes,
Illusions of strengh and confidence hide,
The fear of falling apart,
An actors portrayal of idols, inside,
You know who I want who I want you to know,

So il look you in the eye,
And lie straight to your face,
And show you the world through glimpses and mirrors,
But reach and il pull it away,
Il wear it all on my sleeve,
and show it off with pride,
And slowly lose touch, with all I desire,
and become all that i despise,

So come on think fast, I really should go,
but I'm trapped inside of me,
Excuses come quick, and answers are thin,
and somehow I stand my ground,
I dont believe a word that i say,
but that has nothing to do with the lies,
I'm lost if alone and miserable beside,
Someone who would give me their life,

"Don't Bother Me" (song, check the music site for mp3)

I'm blind, I'm lost, I'm alone im great,
I'm not concerned, I'm A-Okay,
Might of had some problems, but they're dead now,
'Least I think they are, it doesn't bother me,
Nothing does, nothing can, I'm so cut off,
I dont understand, I dont care to,
When im in here, nothing gets through,
It doesnt bother me,

This world is harsh, its cruel, its cold,
We dont make progress, we just get old,
Used to have ambition, and some great dreams,
Broken prophecies, don't bother me,
So build it up, or tear it down,
Just plug my ears, I dont need the sound,
So take it away, or give it back,
Defend, attack, it doesn't bother me,

Renovate the image, of all I see,
Transform the past, change out the feed,
Come out on top, instead of underneath,
High road or low, it doesn't bother me,
We are soliders of war, we are soldiers of peace,
It depends on the week,
So if we are strong, then lets set them free,
Or cower away, It doesnt bother me,
