This is all we know:
The intruders have to go.
Territorial paranoia,
Consuming hearts, infecting minds.
Waving a ragged flag,
Perverse in black and white.
Distorted perception of a fictional oppression.
Get out.
Irrational sensationalist,
Refusal to co-exist.
Uniform belligerence,
Endurance of ignorance.
Amidst ashes and smoke,
Desperate for a scapegoat.
Broken saint in his grave,
In a coffin of shame.
What they called a lion,
Became an eagle of iron.
The desperate voice proclaims:
You better be afraid.
Irony wrapped in a flag.
Parallels reduced to rags.

Awake alone
And above I float
These familiar shapes in unfamiliar ways
And now it all just seems so small
Your geodetic fears
They mean nothing here
Insignificance in the face of the great silence
(In this cold void, we die alone)
Now we all seem so small
(This great silence)
Now we all seem so small
And as I drift
This feeling persists
That in fact it never even mattered
And now it all just seems so mall
I am unbound
By the cursed ground
Immortality's got no hold on me
(In this cold void, we die alone)
Now we all seem so small
(This great silence)
Now we all seem so small
(Now we all...)
In this cold void
We die alone
Now we all seem so small
Terminal
A cannon ball
My form eroding as I fall
Earth rise,
A shooting star ignites
In flames, my body melts away
I'll burn away
Break through
The bitter truth
I die a blaze in the red sky
I'll burn away

IV Drips & Saline

Woke up sick again,
Staring at the ceiling.
Lying comfortably,
Hi sir, how're you feeling?
No I don't feel right,
Yes I guess I'm healing.
What's for tea today?
IV drips and saline.
Same as yesterday.

Cockroach

Telephone ringing again,
Broken record plays all the same.
Bombard with vile words,
An empty promise is all it's worth.
No bridges left to burn.
Torment
Impunity
Craving
Sympathy
There in the fallout where once you bathed.
You are the cockroach emerging unscathed.
Cockroach.
Tattooed trauma on innocent skin,
Filthy needle with poison ink.
Another sick repeat offence,
Yet somehow no consequence.
Take a razor to your lungs,
Spare me the facade.
Press a blunt blade to your neck,
Show me who you are.

Wolf Children

Wake up little brother, we have to run.
The hunters are drawing near.
I know you're hungry and tired.
So am I but we're not safe here.
If we keep on wandering,
We'll find some food if we follow that path.
I know you're missing home,
I miss it too but we're not going back.
Don't ask me,
Where are mother and father cause I don't know.
Quit your howling and growling brother,
We've got far to roam.
Don't ask me,
Where we plan to go, I still don't know.
We are on our own.
We're not going home.
We have to scavenge for meals,
Beg and borrow and steal,
Hunting in disguise.
Farmers push us away, I don't know what to say.
We are not children in their eyes.
I miss mother and father too,
We've wandered for so long.
I'm just as confused as you brother,
What have we done wrong?
