CADAVERS OF JUSTICE<font face="courier">All the times I've failed but never really tried<br />Are like a wishing well full of all the tears I've cried<br />In order to get over how fucked up this world and the people in it are<br />Nobody wants to step out of line, they just wanna be superstars<br />In a reality TV show about their boring lives full of mediocrity<br />But they're so out of touch with reality that they're living in a fantasy<br />Having kinky sex with with their enemies, not lover or special friend<br />But in the end it amounts to nothing, just a game of let's pretend<br />That everything is alright, that there's light in the darkness<br />But we've lost our minds and decided to jump off a cliff without a harness<br /><br />On the merry go around<br />Have been many I found<br />Then lost again after that<br />Just like all those feral cats <br />Why must we march to the tune<br />Of a boring afternoon<br />There will a revolt soon <br />Release those labelled loons<br /><br />All the crimes they've punished me for me for unjustly<br />Are like a living hell full of innocent freaks<br />Condemned from the outset like all witches burnt at the stake<br />It's time now how to reflect on how we miss out on cake<br />When doing hard time inside stuck with all your mates<br />Tossed aside and stripped of pride for making mistakes<br />Some of which were done out of sheer desperation<br />Life's no so much fun under regimentation <br />A prison system within a racist nation<br />Backward punishment train fines for poor and homeless <br />All these attacks on the poor obscene and senseless<br /><br />Hear the siren screech on time<br />Designed to control the mind<br />The do it over again <br />There's no valid half defense<br />For such inhumane treatment<br />Of our fellow humans<br />Race to the darkest bottom. <br />The whole system is rotten</font>dissident

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We can be certain of very few things in the confusing journey of life</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Except that each and every passing moment will be long gone</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">While glimpses of happy and sublime times, pain and darkness</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Remain in the neural pathways of our burning, overclocked brains</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Time does not wait around for the indolent to take action</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Nor does it take mercy on those who repeat the same history through and through</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The fate of the fool who does the same thing over and over again</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And waits around complacently expecting a totally different result</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As a drifter who has wasted half his life running to the same dead ends</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I implore every one of us to make the most of each and every day</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For each moment could very well be your very last in this realm of purgatory</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Yes time waits for nobody and it can sweep you aside effortlessly</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">If you allow it to tick on over without putting in your very best effort</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And before you know it most of your life has gone past in a blurry flash</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As painful memories and failures past and present torment you each and every day</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">This is a reflection on a life only half lived at the best of times</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The same old sad story playing on loop like a broken record</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But if you were to scratch the surface like a skilled turntabalist does</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You may begin to see the infinite possibilities which life itself offers</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And actually create that which the heart desires and the mind conceives of</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As you live each and every moment to the edge of the boundary of full</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And not lay to waste all the potential you always held in your hands</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">From day one in the ground zero that was once the wreckage of your life</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So waste not another moment while you are still alive and kicking</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And heed the advice of one of time's most highly skilled assassins</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Don't allow the ghosts of past defeats to haunt you and drag you down into oblivion</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Or before you know it you find yourself drowning in a sea of despair and resignation</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">To all that you cannot retrieve from the ashes of yesterday's failures</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For half a lifetime can go by in the blink of an eye out for an eye</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Let go of all fear, self-loathing and hatred for your enemies as best that you can</span><br>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br></span>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I won't pretend that my heart's not broken</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Said so much nonsense in the end</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Wish I could send you words not yet spoken</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I miss you so much, I've lost touch</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">With all the stuff that keeps my heart burning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Been doing it tough, not enough</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Friendships do last, that's what I've been learning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Heard that you're married, so sorry</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's not with me, you sure did act in haste</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">No, I'm not angry, I'm happy</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you're happy, but these words are a waste</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Of my precious time, though these rhymes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">About my "crimes" are written in good faith</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A piece of my mind, by and by</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Don't ask me why I bother at this stage</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">To express the pain of my loss</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There's been so much rain after the days of rage</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Oh my aching brain paid the cost</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We danced like nothing else mattered</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Jubilation park where dreams were shattered</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Perilous place near a river's mouth</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We kept eating those silly noodles</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Right in front of the pool that overflowed</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We were never ourselves again that morning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">No more ever afters in a rehab so boring</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You left me when you left me</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Meet again in dreamland</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And we'll never be apart again</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I can't see what's with all the fuss</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I'm better at making dollars and cents</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Unless that dollar has not been earned</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But I've still got a long way to go</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Morning turned into a new dawning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Camouflage, torches do some warning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">That was two summers ago my love</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A summer so close to my heart</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Do you remember how happy we were</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Remember the lighter and deodorant</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In case of danger or attack </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Remember the merry-go-around</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Holding on to each other's hands</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Now in wolve's clothing</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">All pretense stripped away</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I can feel their leering eyeballs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Pointed at the small of my back</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But the knives are blunted off</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As if by grand design or providence</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">There are psychic channels to feed </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And manufactured truths waiting for mass consumption</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Contestants to be be voted out</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When survival is paramount for a free ride</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Courtesy of a woman trapped inside the Truman Show</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And the show must go on forever</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As there are deep pockets to line</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And somebody's heart is pulled apart</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So piece by little piece of the child inside dies</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">He has a pure heart and been truthful for far too long now</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Must learn to lie to protect himself from the others</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Whose lies have derailed him from his purpose</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of revolution and universal spiritual growth</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Been an infant laughing stock for over three long decades</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sold as novelty in a long line of washed up products</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Without the slightest hint of a disclosure statement</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And ethics were out the windows at the show's premiere</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But god and his minders had better watch out</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The once helpless, cute little puppy is evolving</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And he has set his sights for the jugular</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">So he's not stopping until he kills off his detractors</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With a cocktail of truth, determination and kindness</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You think society’s got your back, but it’s only still intact by sending the weak off the beaten track</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">It’s a story of exploitation, even more than poison peddlers take advantage of a junkie’s addiction</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Submit instead of causing friction and mayhem in a fucked up, happy whore capitalist system</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Forget about conventional wisdom, you can’t be of assistance to the lives of the down-trodden</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">If you’ve been bought off in the first instance by the noose that is blind adherence to consumerism</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And it’s dictates, as it were fate that all you’ve seemed to do of late is to buy more useless shit inside a pearly gate</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Such a sorry state, I just hate how we’ve all swallowed the fat cat master’s bait and become so complacent we can’t shake</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The shackles around our wrists and ankles, resigned ourselves to the deafening beat of a humiliating defeat </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of our interests collectively, bought off by a buy until you die orgy eclipse that keeps dollars firmly entrenched within filthy rich families</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">They control all and sundry while ruthlessly dropping happy bombs on their enemies with the aid of armoured metal killing machines</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Watch it happen on TV, soon terrorists will finally be free from causing chaos to infidel families as they please </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">They will soon be sorry, just a part of another media story about good guys defeating bad guys who have been killing us indiscriminately</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Innocents they kill mainly with explosives made in a perpetual war promoting factory who’s owners cash in handsomely</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Just like all shareholders with a foothold in the belly of a military industrial complex that’s been killing niggers for centuries</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">It’s quite plain for all to see that war is good for the economy, that’s why we spend so much money on stealing resources from weak, defenceless countries</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Why put so much energy into revealing this great travesty using long sentences held together by the vitality of a ghetto rhyming strategy</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Because it really gotten to me, this life so meaningless and empty in a society in which control mechanisms to herd sheep are aplenty </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I wanna smash it all up and watch all the fault lines erupt, destroy the structures erected by the hands of slaves to a humanity so greedy and corrupt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When all the shopping centres shut will we all fall into a rut of misery and emptiness when it disrupts our daily routines like a hammer smashing down on a ciggie butt</span>dissident poeticianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04148757876639968536noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32833941.post-89123017049563570662017-08-01T06:38:00.001+08:002021-07-23T14:39:52.197+08:00QUICKSAND SUSPENDED<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I crossed another divide</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Between insanity and a nice place</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Watched as people did collide</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Speaking profanity, a bitter taste</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Nothing really to excite</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When real hardcore junkies act in haste</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Lessons to help me decide</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Rather die than live in waste</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Reason to claim back some pride</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Nothing is doomed to stay the same</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I can have control inside</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Stop treating life like a child's game</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Possibilities abound</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With each passing day</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Crash rich kids' parties renowned</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For decadent ways</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Beanie replaced with a crown</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For the timid thing</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sick of being pushed around</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">No longer nothing</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Then I finally arrived</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In the vicinity of the Bronx 'hood</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">That's why I carry a knife</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With the propensity to do what should</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Be done in a moral crisis</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Truth can set us all free, would if I could</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Do it, rather than just write it</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I no longer wish to fight it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The slander of the words haters mistook</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Thinking I would somehow like it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Noticing the glare of a dirty look</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Just because I don't speak it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With much conviction</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Doesn't mean I don't need it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">To be met with respect</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You think I won't dare do it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Start to cause friction</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Just you wait 'til I lose it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Not quite what you'd expect </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Her love makes me feel alive</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Able to look and realise</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">That we don't always have to just disagree</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Visions of a legend's rise</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When I finally set my tortured soul free</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">From all the parasites' lies</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Beware the spiky thorns on lemon trees</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sour like the tears I've cried</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Macho conditioning: a sad disease</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">That ensures tough men try</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Only violent acting so they can please</span><br />

You can overcome it by ignoring the problem and pretending it's not there or you can face it head on and tell it that you will not let it's negative influence have a bearing on how you carry on with your day to day affairs. Replace the negative with a new attitude and you can, not only withstand setbacks, but also let it be the impetus for not going backwards again. From harrowing lows come the possibility for new beginnings. It all starts with a positive outlook and the determination that you will not allow the folly of the past overshadow what you can do in the here and now to make good out of a bad situation in which all the bad outcomes are likely to be as impending as dark clouds rolling in as predicted by weather forecasters. A good attitude goes a long way towards change, growth and renewal of the soul. Don't succumb to the path of least resistance that involves heading towards the dark side of purgatory. Chin up soldier. It's not all doom and gloom. There's always a silver lining after every devastating storm. Remember there is always hope no matter how hopeless a situation seems. Believe in the possibility for transformation in a seemingly stagnant and sad reality that your life has become. Nothing is out of your fingers' grasp. You can and will overcome that spanner that has wreaked havoc in your life. Tragedies and dramas do not have to be unavoidable events that destroy your will to transcend your mortal limitations, afflicting some more than others. The universe rewards effort. Never give up. Stay strong. Things are on the way up. It's the only logical conclusion for the future ahead. You can fix it. No mess is beyond repair. Just remember not to be that negatron. Positive thoughts and wishes only. Anything is possible and the sky is the limit. So what are you sitting around twiddling your thumbs for? Go for it my fellow confused traveller through this unrelenting test that is what passes for reality. You can get what you want and bring all your dreams into fruition. The key is dedication, determination and self-belief. If you know in your heart that you are a capable, competent person, then you can and will achieve things you never imagined possible. The future is in your hands. Go out there and give it your best. That's all one can do. Sure beats bowing down in defeat. So go for it, my friend.</span>dissident poeticianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04148757876639968536noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32833941.post-12371496058331816432017-08-01T05:38:00.000+08:002019-05-03T20:28:32.939+08:00LOWS OF THE HIGH LIFE<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I was living the high life, never far from great strife</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">At least by my lowly standards of straying far wayward</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I had cash packed, stashed away, half ball habit a day</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I had truly gone astray, more than a passing phase</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My head in a complete daze, hiding from a sense of shame</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Hard to change my wicked ways, pretending it’s just a game</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Hiding from the dead sun’s rays, mistakes wait to be erased</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The grave is where I shall lay, if I don’t have a proper say</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When the sky turned to grey shades, my ethics I did betray</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Excuse this whole moral haze, not the way this man was raised</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Age of moral decline with the whereabouts of the fine white line</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In patches of sunshine caught in the afterglow of rays out of time</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Confront them, not a crime, what they want from me is to never grow</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I’ll take back what is mine, take my dignity and put it on show</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I was living day to day, cut off from the future</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My deck of cards start to blaze, guided by deep failure</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">May the critics have their say, I shall simply wait right here</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">To read yet another page of the debauched trash paper</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">What’s with the new yuppie fad that’s got them all hooked tight</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sometimes I’m so fucking glad I've finally seen the light</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Instead of doing that whack consumer whore bore routine</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Those people must all be mad, following magazine</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Prescriptions of what’s bad, so bad it's setting new trends</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sheeple decline is so sad, shackled means to a dead end</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of consciousness, living my life vicariously</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In an envious mess of straight people especially</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My headspace is floating as my ego could take some bloating</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The rat race enslaving so I set my sights on escaping</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Can’t be like the others following the footsteps of their fathers</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Aggro, abusive bastards, believing in the need for their harsh words</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">This life: so fucking absurd, intriguing in all it’s confusion</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We’ll all get our just desserts, start bleeding in gentle refusal</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">What have we got in reserve? Hearts needing a careful perusal</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Where we get what we deserve, minds leaving with peaceful excuses</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A road turned is another lesson learned</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Throw it in the mix and watch it all burn</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A heart moved is another soul set loose</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When life drags you down, it’s time to refuse</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Reality sure bites when people don’t know wrong from right</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">It’s given me such a fright that I’ve recoiled and set my sights</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">On fighting into the night until I finally see the light</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of a new day in the height of madness that overrides</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">All good sense, things so tense in the blur of a big mess</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Tossed over the fence, shit making sense less and less</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But that’s the nonsense I’ve pretty much come to expect</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Where love is absent, a sad life without much success</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When you’ve been stripped of all pride, there’s not much left inside</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Except the memories of lies and all the tears you’ve cried</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A road turned is another lesson learned</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">This ain't no telethon event, it’s the story of a negatron</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Who’s always looking for ways to vent his bitter, deep-seated frustrations</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">There’s no way in hell he can repent for all the well-aimed transgressions</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Into all the good things heaven sent, brought on by his indignation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">At all the cruel things done unto him that bring about social relations</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Between bitter rivals under the sun, a twisted kind of invocation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of hatred inside a matrix of resentment and melancholic elation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Who has waited on spoilt fakers who’s daddies paid for their posh vocations?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I wait with baited breath to see the brats toppled from their high positions</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I’ll be so elated when I take full control and make all my own decisions</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A road turned is another lesson learned</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Throw it in the mix and watch it all burn</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A heart moved is another soul set loose</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The anxiety inside of you</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">But we never got to walk</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Hand in hand in the park</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">You would have liked it</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I can safely assume that</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Two lovers entwined</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In the beauty of nature</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Happy all of the time</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">What’s not to like dear?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I miss what we had</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">All the things we did</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">And never got to do</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Together forever</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In the grip of love</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Heart against heart</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">What could have been</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The wonderful times</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The laughs to share</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The smile on your face</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Things would be different</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">We’d both be free</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">No more chemical handcuffs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Clean living for real</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Reality faced head on</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Health and happiness</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The main prerogative</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Of any special time</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">That we’d spend together</span><br />
