Tresspasser

I showed you those roads,

The rivers and streams

I told you my stories

And shared all my dreams

I showed you the trees

That were planted for me

The mountains, the sky

And the places I've been

I showed you my heart

And you walked on my earth

Those places were sacred

Full of bounty and worth

Now you walk alone

Down the spines of my soul

This isn't your home

But you've taken it whole

Now the rivers run dry

And the mountains they weep

The sky's full of sadness

While the trees are asleep

You've stolen the magic

You've taken the sun

You're full of destruction

Look at all that you've done

Those rivers were mine

The mountains and streams

While stripping it all

You've forgotten it seems

Shutdown

Locked in a black void

Screaming with no sound

I wish I could tell you

I wish I could tell you

I wish I could tell you

But I'm no longer in control

The mechanic's out for lunch right now

And I'm left trapped in hell

Finale

To go out with a bang

Leaves one to question

If a boom

Would be a bolder move

A metaphor

I've forgotten how to walk

Without the crutches

In my hands

The Great Demise

I finally took you off

The pedestal in my head

It's time to put myself

Up there on it instead

Topography

You would think

That my eyes

Would be desert dry

With all of the

Oceans

That they cry

Obscura

Are there others

In this world

Who fall asleep

Praying to dream

Of nothingness?

Detonate

You placed a time bomb

And now you're suprised

To find it exploding in your face

It's not up for debate

The time has come

And now we retaliate

It's not a he said/she said

It's a he's dead/she's dead

But we all bleed red

If you stay silent

You've become complient

While others start riots

Speak up for those in need

Speak up if you believe

That what's happening

In the world

Is wrong.

No more silence

Raise your voices

No more violence

You know the choice is

Yours.

Omit

There's a hole in my heart

Where my soul used to be

I don't know if it's gone

Or just hiding from me
