My Life is You

Just another day like any other,
Why was it special?
Why was it now?

A decision had been made to act,
It was time to go,
To leave them be.

Don’t cry – don’t fret,
Believe I’ll be back.
Always care – Always love,
I treasure you all.

An implosion of a being began,
A rip and a tear.
Paralysis spreads.

Give me a drink - give me a drug,
Drown me now,
See me dead.

Don’t cry – don’t fret,
Believe I’ll be back.
Always care – Always love,
I treasure you all,
My life is you.

The ache it cuts, grinds and sucks,
No remedy - nil
Torment fulfills.

Time ticks slow and tortures away,
When it stops
Life or death?

Don’t cry – don’t fret,
Believe I’ll be back.
Always care – Always love,
I treasure you all,
My life is you.
My life is you.
My life is you.

Standing

Standing here feeling
every burning emotion.
Considering moving just for a change.
Something in me enjoys this pain.

Don’t know if I’m breathing,
Everything’s so surreal ,
Feels like I am soothing,
Just aching.
Just standing.

The pain is relieving,
Somehow it is needed.
I crave the hurt I stand and take.
I deserve it for the deeds I brought.

Don’t know if I’m breathing,
Everything is so surreal ,
Feels like I am soothing,
Just aching.
Just standing.

I.. I suffer and I wilt,
When is it enough.
To balance out the guilt and sin,
So life will resurrect and move on.

The day comes at last,
A shift has come my way.
The hurt it fades – I feel alive.
The scar it stays and smoulders inside.

Yes I am breathing,
Everything’s so surreal ,
Feels like I am soothing,
Just aching.

Yes I am breathing,
Everything’s so surreal ,
Feels like I am soothing,
Just living.
Just living .
Just standing.

Truth

They say he’s the one
And it must be so
They say he’s the one
And he really must go.

If that man stays here
How can we survive
If he stays right here
He’s a threat to our lives.

Subnormal freak out
The truth has lost out
Subnormal freak out
Let’s scream – Let’s shout.

We don’t want a jury
We don’t need no court
Let us not now worry
Now that he’s been caught.

It is for the families
So we do sleep easy
Sure he is our enemy
No use to argue with me.

Subnormal freak out
The truth has lost out
Subnormal freak out
Let’s scream – Let’s shout.

It is justice – it is truth
We did the right thing
It’s now peace for all
But I hear the phone ring

His life now it’s finished
The mob it had its way
Too late to find out
It’s not really his DNA.

Subnormal freak out
The truth has lost out
Subnormal freak out
Let’s scream – Let’s shout - out.

Beast by Night

The way forward is darkened and blurred,
I see an image, a shape, a form.
I push on through with pain and sweat,
I find that place where I was born.

A birth of sorts is delivered and stirred,
I see my future, a life untamed.
Flying and drinking on the loose,
A thirst unquenched - no one to blame.

The image of a life in flight,
Ahead of all,
A beast by night.
Climbing right up to the peak,
Escape and live,
Let’s move let’s seek.

I cruise with ease on through the night,
I see them quake, they fall, they die.
Growing stronger at every turn,
The life that I live it’s just a lie.

The image of a life in flight,
Ahead of all,
A beast by night.
Climbing right up to the peak,
Escape and live,
Let’s move let’s seek.

The way forward is darkened and blurred,
I see an image, a shape, a form.
I push on through with pain and sweat,
I find that place where I was born.

The image of a life in flight,
Ahead of all,
A beast by night.
Finding out it’s such a thrill,
Escape and live,
Let’s move let’s kill.
