Merri-go-round

Once more through the merri-go-round
My heart and head beginning to pound
My soul cracks with every sound
Once I'm lost I'll never be found
Just once more through the merri-go-round

Dark

Dark minds reveal dark solutions
Tainting the white with red and black
Creating an illusion masked in reality
No escape No chance No turning back

Merda-testa

Short and squat with a cute smushed face
like she caught the car during the chase.
An imaginary tail wags in the air
she can romp and play without a care.

Merda-testa by thy name
We may not be one and the same
But you still include us in your game

She has no clue about life's oblivion,
but when she plays she's wiser than anyone.
She may not know her days wont last her
but she lives them fuller than her masters.

Merda-testa by thy name
your mortality is brief but you don't complain
you pass your days without blame

They scoff and mock her innocent mind
as they trudge through their daily grind
They dimiss her with hardly a glance
then wish they could give her life a chance

Merda-testa by thy name
You laugh as we live life in vain
How do you ignore the pain?

Blank

Blank messages and blank minds.
Everything is erased in time.
Clean the muck and clean the grime.
Soon there is nothing left but rhyme.

Gingham Whales

I know there's something wrong with me.
I know not to believe everything I see.
I know my mind likes to run a little too free.
But could you just make the gingham whales shut up?

I'm not quite sure what to believe,
of all these things my mind can weave.
The black always beckons me to leave.
Just make the gingham whales shut up.

I never know how long I'll last.
I can feel my mind slipping fast.
Screw my future I don't know my past.
Just shut the gingham whales up!

Fallen For You

Earthly angel from afar.
Looking at a shooting star.
What she wished for is unknown,
but a light smile can be shown.
She turns to you with ethereal grace.
A look of shock washed on her face.
In a flash of joy she shatters through,
the celestial veil that kept her from you.
Her halo dims and her wings like a dove
begin to wilt and cake with her blood.
She abandoned perfection, the world she knows,
and by the power of the stars it was you she chose.

Monochromatic

Your monochromatic life
Of black and white
Every shade and hue
Is just gray to you
Living fast in the past
But it just can't last
Because with life is strife
And you just can't hide
From the ride
Come on in with the tide
Just fight the good fight
Because no matter how much you try
This shit just won't fly
