The Hive
Feb 19, 2009
THE HIVE
Always changing
Rearranging
Forcing you to keep up
And the constant creeps
And the street lights
Can get you so down
The city is a crazy place
Always in your face
Always everywhere
It's so demanding
Can't get away
There's nowhere to hide
The city is a crazy place
It's a playground for outcasts
Cluttered and filled with apathetic
Delusions
Mass of people
Bustling around
And they're littered
Oh so reckless
The buzzing never stops
Oh never stops
But the hive is
Exploding
But the hive is
But the hive is
exploding
In downtown
They want everything
No change for your
Handout
But there's beauty in the cracks
The degradation of
The bloody sidewalk
And everything is covered in graffiti
But it beams of
Expression
And the pressure
And the atmosphere
It's all-so
Relentless
Weighed down by
The body counts
It's never
Never ending
The city is a crazy place
The buzzing never stops
Oh never stops
But this hive is exploding
It's a playground for outcasts
Cluttered and filled with apathetic
Delusions
Mass of people
Bustling around
And they're littered
Oh so reckless
The buzzing never stops
Oh never stops
But the hive is exploding
But the hive is
But the hive is
exploding
The buzzing never stops

Oblivion
Feb 19, 2009
OBLIVION
Followed fools
A temple in the gleaming
Built for spite and secret prophets
Farmed out thoughts
Collected is collective
Where will you land when we all fall?
Washing minds
Seeking all the knowledge
Binding eyes and bitter parties
Beneath the cracks of explosive loaded buildings
As all the towers fall in heaven
Were to busy feasting on fame
All this charity, all this rage
Difference, indifference
Beating the cause
Waiting for wastelands
And sipping on thoughts
Whether to stand, whether to run
Is beating this force into oblivion
So it grows
Beating on the backs of school age children learning nothing
And hallowed hope
Seeping through the civ
That blocks the sunlight from returning
Its not pain
That singles out the needy
But a system that's corrupted
General fear, loaded in our guns
And were shooting all that move
Because were to busy feasting on fame
All this charity, all this rage
Difference, indifference
Beating the cause
Waiting for wastelands
And sipping on thoughts
Whether to stand, whether to run
Is beating this force into oblivion
And it grows
Disconnected fragments
Fill the mouths of those who care
A shallow pond
Wading in the limitless potential of our TV's
Call to arms
A grazing field of bombs
Foxhole of commandments
Playing time
Hide and seek with trauma
No one wins and we all suffer
Because were to busy thinking of ourselves
Waiting for someone to undue the spell
Giving no charity, filling with rage
Becoming indifferent, and running away
Wasteland of thoughts forced to the ground
No one stands
And were left in oblivion

Buy Me
Please don't notice
The climate drifting trends
Packages within packages
Heaps and mounds of garbage
Bottle tops in oil
Baby diaper weeps
Consume all you want
Because some one already sold you in
Buy me
Im good for you
Ill make everyone notice
Then follow me to grave yards
Of all the things you cherish
Catalog your quarters
and melt them into dimes
Try on all your gold rings
And thank Africa for your diamonds
You made money to spend it
So heres your chance to gloat
Paydays for products
At natures running joke
Market crashed consumers
Waiting for casheiers
While money flows like water
That soon will not exsist
Fistfulls of dollars
Running to the store
Busy watching commercials
That tell you where to go
Don't woory about your credit card
Because its only plastic
And if you reach your limit
Im sure they'll send you another one
Buy me
Im good for you
Ill make everyone notice
Then follow me to grave yards of all the things you cherish
You made money to spend it
So heres your chance to gloat
Paydays for products
At natures running joke

A million alter egos
Feb 19, 2009
She walks up gum booted
and restless
Carving the pavement with wire
Slits in open buildings
Removing scrap from scaffoldings with her teeth
Chases moon drops
on city buildings
Searching for the stars
Sits singing in echos
Stands dreaming of all time
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
Crass tip tounged
Breathing fire and spitting truth
Demure eyed lover
Sing soul and humming life
She walks up stilletoed
Billowed fabric and subltle lips
Saunters slowly
circling celestial fingers
Closes her eyes intently and breathes in
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
Tells tales of wonderment
Finds beauty in all things
Chases phenomenon
knowledge and self attainment
She walks up firecracker
Slinging jokes around the bar
Beer fisted, scuttle but jigging
love of the juke box
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
she walks up the be bop
seeing paths in all directions
squeals and giggles
at the simple joy of climbing things
a dare devil
rule breaker
down for the cause
finds it all amuzing
that the world goes round
she cares
for the future
she dreams of the past
she walks up the forefront
leading those at war
fights for what is worthy
makes peace with whats been done
million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
a million alter egos
and all of them have great smiles
Buy Me
Please don't notice
The climate drifting trends
Packages within packages
Heaps and mounds of garbage
Bottle tops in oil
Baby diaper weeps
Consume all you want
Because some one already sold you in
