The Only Certain Thing - Death
So everything happens for a reason?
Pawns in a bigger game; The only pieces left…
"TAKE RISKS! As long as you conform" they said,
The only certain thing, is death.
So everyone lives again,
We enter with nothing, We leave with even less…
I shall not live on "What-If's" anymore
When the only certain thing, is death.
As so the ticking grows louder,
It's mocking hands quicken their pace,
Time melts away by the second's caress,
And the only certain thing is death.
So everyone wants for nothing...
Is that why you hunger? Whilst I am full and fed…
Nothing is an issue if nothing is said,
The only certain thing - we're dead.
Dead b
Peel back the covers don't you dare hide away
Don't let them be the ones to bring down your day
They want to make you feel the pain you deserve
Let you realise how much life hurts
Pull off the false front you cower beneath
Strip your soul bare, let everyone see.
Would you be so brave if you stood alone?
If your army began to erode.
Let go of life, before your demons succeed
Turn away don't let them see that you bleed
Don't fight a losing battle, don't kill your pride
Keep it with you till your soul starts to die
Show who you are don't live your life locked up tight
Go and defend all you believe that is right
Better to live an
Came the angels of tainted perfection
To line our hearts with ammunition
Adorned with twisted dreams of peace
To quell the fire of rapt ambition
Came the angels of newborn damnation
Fresh from the womb of brutal demise
Appeased with misfortune and vengeful souls
To gnaw our skin and gauge our eyes
And still, and still, the fires raged,
As victims fell to pre-dug graves.
Exiled creatures fresh from hell
Wished our shattered bodies well
And still, the roses failed to bloom
Crown with thorns, my blood consumed
Ebony blood runs cold as ice
Let loose with heartfelt sacrifice…
Remove the air we don't need anymore
Spread peace as the word,
Then change it to war
Bring out the weapons,
Lets all be afraid
Fear's what we lack,
And what we betray
Bend your bullets back,
Lets go and infect
Build paranoia till it serves to protect
Remove the blood stains,
So we can die here
Gash my arms until flesh wounds appear
Mop up the blood,
From the tears that we cry
Cut ourselves loose from the chains in the sky
Play your still hand,
Along my line of fire
We wretch till we bleed,
We shake and perspire
Set fire to the rain,
It burns through the skin
We're puppets of lust, controlled by our sins
Watch me bu
with tainted hearts we look upon
the darkened space where stars once shone
the battlegrounds of broken dreams
that shattered hopes of love and peace
with tainted souls we step around
the men our mindset shot right down
the tattered lives that fought for truth
killed for the minds that really knew
this life will be the death of all of us
this life will equal the end
these scars that linger still remind us
that we can bleed, it's not pretend
with tainted hearts we can't admit
mistakes we've made, the blood we've dripped
the wounds of hate, that never heal
the wars we're caused that seemed so real
with tainted souls we live the s

Sweet scratches and Burns
Sweet scratches and burns
Cover bruised, battered hands
It pains when she breathes;
She falls when she stands.
His hands hold her blood
She's down on her knees,
She knows his fist strikes,
When eyes start to tease
Sweet scratches and burns
Hide a beautiful face
Embracing the end
She's fallen from grace..
His hands hold her blood
Her heart slows it's beat
She's scared and alone;
Facing defeat
Sweet scratches and burns
Mark marital bliss
He 'loved' her to death,
Sealed with a kiss..
I'll sacrifice myself to save you your pain
Surrender my soul, before I hurt you again
I pushed too hard; I never thought you would break
But you could and you have and it's all my mistake
I'll sacrifice myself in the hope I can save
You from yourself, before it's too late
I loved you too much, you felt buried alive
But I've left you alone in the hope you'd survive
I'll sacrifice myself to save you your pain
I took it too far , now I carry the blame
I pushed you too hard; I never thought you'd succumb
To my voice in your head that told you to run
I'll sacrifice myself in the hope you can breathe
Without me beside you - I'm not
World Ends. Nighmare Begins by among-the-dead, literature
Literature
World Ends. Nighmare Begins
i saw the end of the world in your eyes
i watched as humanity met it's demise
a thousand lies fell cold and corrupt
our venomous veins cause our hearts to erupt
and the more we understand the more that we hate
about the world that we're bound and cannot escape
prayers turn to poison the minute they're born
victims become hunted when they're wings become torn
blood spattered innocence lays claim to the cure
morals snap like spines as fear fuels war
the diseases they made couldn't bring forth the grave
the fired up our heaven so their lies could be saved
and the crippled creatures you plucked from your ribs
lie crying for blood as
Saluting the sun though it burns through your eyes
To follow your leaders, to covet their lies
Stretching your palm and inviting their nails
To relinquish the glory that made them so frail
To welcome their cruel words and make them your own
And ignoring your conscience; so you don't stand alone
Treading on hearts as they shatter like glass
And they pierce your feet as you run from the past
The anger returns you once fought to the ground
When you hid what you hated and lost what I found
Friends become victims when you kiss them sweet night
As you turn to the evil you swore that you'd fight
The blood, sweat, and tears that you live
I'll sacrifice myself to save you your pain
Surrender my soul, before I hurt you again
I pushed too hard; I never thought you would break
But you could and you have and it's all my mistake
I'll sacrifice myself in the hope I can save
You from yourself, before it's too late
I loved you too much, you felt buried alive
But I've left you alone in the hope you'd survive
I'll sacrifice myself to save you your pain
I took it too far , now I carry the blame
I pushed you too hard; I never thought you'd succumb
To my voice in your head that told you to run
I'll sacrifice myself in the hope you can breathe
Without me beside you - I'm not

Cry
Cry one more tear
Cry one more fear
Tear them from your eyes
You know its not hard
Just think of the past
Know nothing did last
And then they will come
Roll faster than ever before
Your bleeding once more
Not from your wrists
Not passing your lips
Not draining the noise that pierces your ears
But passing with the tears
Streaming down your face
Forming a gorge in your skin
Rivers of blood are flowing again
When will they stop? They never will
Now soaked in your chest
Still unable to confess
To all that you know
To all those you trust
But not with this pain
Would it be wrong? To share them this hate?
Your decisions t
The stars veil her wishes
And the sun rises only to see her fall
The rain mocks her every breath
The wind steals away her call
The ocean waves around her misery
And crashes it on shore
The mountains echo her agony
She yearns to live no more
The sky she begs becomes too vast
And the ground below her quakes
Staining her hope with dust
Filling the crevices with aches
The clouds approach, shrouding the light
She knows it is too late
For she stood against the inevitable
Her enemy was Fate....
Death holds me in his arms
Caressing me with comfort
Protecting me from harm
He breathes softly
Whispering a dying tune
Letting me know it's near
It will all be over soon
His voice fills with grief
Knowing i willingly give in
A smile fades from His eyes
As I give my soul to Him
A melody he will cry
As we sink into the abyss
Leaving behind my tears
For the loved ones I won't miss
My Forever Angel
Upon the weepy willows of his castor opal shells,
Trickled silver wisps of moon light,
Cast in the shadow of purple spells,
Before the cobalt of dawn broke the night.
Under the glades of golden heather spears,
Wept this my forever angel,
Lost now to the darkest of fears,
Crouched at the threshold of somber hell.
For folded had I been in his weary sprouts,
Through the night, seeking everlasting peace if only in name,
And through the bleakness of it all, heard I his cries and shouts,
But who was I to ever blame.
"Look, said I, not into the wounds of your heart,
But cradle my broken wings,
Before I forever depar
Dawns December
Dawns December now draws near, so I fear,
No longer can I remember, that much is clear.
I forsook this world of lies and rape,
A bed of nails and crimson tape.
I shed the night's cold embrace,
And found neither light nor eternal grace.
Answer me this: what color is truth?
Is it not the bedrock of our youth?
For if it were why was I not set free?
Why could the truth not then save me?
But I could feel and what I felt was real.
So hear me now, one last mortal appeal!
I may be naked and my very will forsaken,
And what was my soul is now rather taken.
Still I struggle to break clear,
Lost in a sea of my own tea

I sat the last of my exams a week ago and promptly spent the rest of the week off ill with un-nice doctor consequences.. sorry to share this but - need to let off steam i guess.. since my last post, i broke up with the boy mentioned and.. things are a little strange at the moment in the head of me.. on a plus note, i'm organising my next big fundraising stunt. ready to guess my stupid idea...?
