Down at the heart of this
in dusty confusion, lay
an unturned stone, amidst
the wretched pain, dismay
Forgotten fortunes rot
as blindness satisfies
the lonely silence, fought
soul and heart, despised
Oh turn your face upon me
give your child another chance
hold my faults, not against me
pray, give my soul another glance
For I am lost, I am unfound
I yearn for comfort, for peaceful days
I fall upon my guilt dust upon the ground
to claw my misery, into a distant haze
Cry havoc, cry pain
Cry suffer, another sprain
Upon me heap, the midnight mane
of nature’s smirk, the devil, lurks
The trap has sprung, I am undone
I have no favor, to lend
And in my heart, my human smart
the unholy fire, begins to burn
Long days are spent
Upon the horrors, meant
In hallowed halls,
where my love was spurned
Give hope a wistful thought
hold love above dismay
pray, bend your will upon us
pray, delay yet another day
Down where the heart is mist
in musty delusion, preys
a furtive bloke, a witful twist
with eyes, that hold a hollow glaze
Unknown to culture’s stain
this hermit’s deeds, unseen
is merely spawn, a longing pain
a humble guise, pristine
And now, alas, comes freedom
a down black chasms fear
my heart is empty, numb
my human life, a smear

EGO
Hidden in my loins of anger
Creeping through my gut of danger
Clenched on my heart of stone
And speaking, underbreath... alone...
There lurks a devil in disguise.
Hidden in my steps misguided
Creeping through my paths unwinded
Clenched on my love, my heart
And speaking, underneath,.. my part
in my words and actions,.. dig a hole...
There preys a devil on my soul.
Only light can save me,
only love who gave me
a life, a home, and a passion
in my soul...
Oh, EGO.... let me go!!!
Creeping through my gut of danger
Clenched on my heart of stone
And speaking, underbreath... alone...
There lurks a devil in disguise.
Hidden in my steps misguided
Creeping through my paths unwinded
Clenched on my love, my heart
And speaking, underneath,.. my part
in my words and actions,.. dig a hole...
There preys a devil on my soul.
Only light can save me,
only love who gave me
a life, a home, and a passion
in my soul...
Oh, EGO.... let me go!!!

A Mountain Of Fog
The fog surrounds the awoken mind with comfort and dream...
The day light filtered through this veil of vapor and evanescence...
Climbing up a mountain of fog, breathing in the spirit abreath...
Heaving my worn body up to the top, step by step my heart quickens...
Pushed by will and desire, tugged by vision and thought...
Holding my soul on a breath, here in this mist I drift...
Forever my God speaks to me, and today at least I listen...
Grace to bring me to my knees, and power to shatter my pride...

Holding my soul on a breath, here in this mist I drift...
Forever my God speaks to me, and today at least I listen...
Grace to bring me to my knees, and power to shatter my pride...

UNDONE
Throw open the flood gates
Throw down with the best
Come out swinging and bite
the bullet with me
Sky blue, tantric orange
peel back the pages
of my life
Take notice and heed this
warning that I say
Fallen down, a spiral of fault
selling a lie, not mine
Forbid fruit of the garden
in my pocket, out the back door
with no plan in store
Caress your fears, coddle my ego
with poison and comforting regret
Carry this secret with you
in the lynchpin of blame
that weighs your heart
down amist the fog of hell
Salient guilt trips
lying ahead in the road
Broad sided character
assassination
Licked by the rest
Stop the press
more is less?
The train is on the track
broke my mother's back
because I couldn't
pick up the slack
fortunes are squandered
not all who are lost
will wander
forgotten by the sun
glistening gun
I'm undone
Throw down with the best
Come out swinging and bite
the bullet with me
Sky blue, tantric orange
peel back the pages
of my life
Take notice and heed this
warning that I say
Fallen down, a spiral of fault
selling a lie, not mine
Forbid fruit of the garden
in my pocket, out the back door
with no plan in store
Caress your fears, coddle my ego
with poison and comforting regret
Carry this secret with you
in the lynchpin of blame
that weighs your heart
down amist the fog of hell
Salient guilt trips
lying ahead in the road
Broad sided character
assassination
Licked by the rest
Stop the press
more is less?
The train is on the track
broke my mother's back
because I couldn't
pick up the slack
fortunes are squandered
not all who are lost
will wander
forgotten by the sun
glistening gun
I'm undone
