For every broken promise,
For every silent scream,
For each and every
Mental scar
And for every broken dream.
For every heart that's tearing,
For everyone not caring,
For all the hurting
And the bleeding,
For all the greed
In the face of needing.
For every blackened eye,
For every stitch
In every lip,
For every sobbing 'Why?',
For all the blood;
For every drip.
For all the breaks and fractures,
In every precious bone,
For all the victims
Left to die
Out in the cold
Alone.
This is revenge.
Devoid of light,
Devoid of laughter,
The court is drenched in gloom,
Not dark of night
But dark of judgement
Fills the windowless room.
Shackled at feet
And shackled at hands,
Enter the theatre of the damned.
The executioner
Readies his axe,
Fair justice never intended,
The lives of men
Stripped bare and judged
And when found wanting...Ended.
Devoid of conscience,
Filled with hate,
Despising the accused,
Spitting charges into his face,
Bleeding,
Broken,
Bruised.
More a torture,
Less a trial,
The theories of fairness
And justice defiled.
Let it be done.
More a torture,
Less a trial,
The theories of fairness
And justice defiled.
This isn't the ending
That either of us wanted,
Everything's over
And now we're both haunted.
Memories of the years,
The tears that we've shed,
The doubts and the fears
Crash down on my head,
The weight of our worlds
Colliding on my shoulders,
Everything we said
Playing over and over,
We've both shouted words
That we both regret,
We've both been hurt
And we've both been upset.
Crying on the phone
Asking where it went wrong,
We both saw it coming,
Knew it wouldn't be long,
So why did neither of us
Do a damn thing?
Just hid behind smiles
And music
And drink.
This isn't the ending
That either of us wanted,
Everything's
Alliances dance into Hell and promises made burn like so much dry paper.
The trust that once was quickly dissipates and becomes anger, jealousy, hatred. Hatred that leads to the death of hundreds and sometimes thousands.
Shadows of families painted to walls like the world's most morbid mural. Lovers and offspring clinging to one another in fear, hoping against hope that any second they'll wake up but knowing in their hearts that they're headed for eternal sleep.
Screams slowly fade in to silence as nothing is left alive, leaving only the feeling that things could have happened differently...
...Better.
This is war.
This is the world we
You'll be the first to die
When I up and decide to
Kill everyone.
You'll be the first to cry
And ask for reasons why
But I'll be doing it just for fun.
To get back at the world.
Simplify a thought
Right down to its conception,
The place where it began,
Its genesis,
The inception,
Remember where it was born
And how it all starts,
Not only in the mind
But also in the heart,
And apart from this,
The fatal truth is
That the cliché's a reality
And ignorance is bliss
Because the more you simplify
Or try to summarise,
The more complicated it gets
And the truths become lies
And your imagination flies
But you're forgetting again...
Take it all back to where it's supposed to begin.
Hey all!
Been months since I've been on dA and I can't make any promises that I'm going to be on a lot more, I just have some downtime at home and I thought 'Why not?'...besides that, I've been writing a bit lately so I thought I'd share.
Since I was last on...wow it has been a while...I've been with my beautiful girlfriend Amy for just over four months, now and I've never been happier. She's a gamer, a metal head and a great cook and she makes me laugh every day so yeah, that turned out pretty well.
Still in my metal band, Broken Tusk. Things have felt a little stagnant for us of late but I know for a fact that 2014 is going to be a great
There is very little going on in my life right now.
* Pretty much given up on ever finding a girlfriend of any description, let alone a decent one.
* My band Broken Tusk ( http://www.facebook.com/BrokenTuskUK ) are still working on our album which is pretty cool. You can check us out on Facebook with the previous link or if you'd like to hear us, our Soundcloud is here --> http://soundcloud.com/broken-tusk .
* My job doesn't suck too hard other than the fact that my manager is an utter, utter bitch (Aren't they always?) and I have to get up at 4:30 every morning to get there on time. Bye bye social life. But yeah I've been doing it for 8 o
AARGH, I'M BOILING!I am lying on my bed ON TOP of the covers in my boxer shorts and STILL sweating like a proverbial pig...it's almost as if it's summer or something!
So, what's been going on? Not much.
* My band, Broken Tusk and I are still working on our debut album. (Come give us a 'Like) http://www.facebook.com/BrokenTuskUK
* Just started a new music project with an old friend that I'm really excited about. Quite an odd experience as well because it's my first foray into the realms of radio-friendliness :giggle:
* Romantically speaking, I've taken a step...not sure if it's backwards or forwards yet but I've been reminded that being in
