Treasured Life

I’m an artifact of creation,
Plagued with saturation
Of confusion and doubt
That turns me to devastation.
In a moment of clarity,
Life is revealed to me
To mean much less than what I thought,
And even less than what it seems.
We live and die with no control.
And though we try to get a hold
Our lives slip further from our grip,
As we lose our minds in the abyss.
Our thoughts grow weary,
Our eyes become teary.
On our knees we start weeping
Due to the rampant power of feelings.
Life annihilates faith with ease.
Hope to the weak is only a tease.
To be happy one must do what they please,
And treat logical thought as a horrid disease.
For what is society while we live
But a barrier keeping fear within,
Stopping us from the pleasures of life,
Keeping us confined and blind to sight.
And what is society once we are dead
But a long gone thought in an empty head?
Lose all attention to the eyes of others
And society ceases its power to smother.
To live my life through desire alone
With the people as puppets for me to own,
And the world as a stage for me to show
The life that’s my duty for me to grow.
How I wish I could forget about the colored past,
And forget about the future’s shadows at last.
To live in the moment with nothing but pleasure
Would make my life an unmatchable treasure.

Damn it Feels Good to be a Gamer

Check it! Got my homies and my boys hangin’ out in my basement,
Crankin’ out some Mario Kart for the first place we’re chasin.
After that we’ll put it in and play some Super Smash Bros.
But there’s five of us here? It’s cool the loser will go.
We’ll play all night long until the sun rises.
By playing so long we might unlock some surprises!

Damn it feels good to be a gamer,
Although the girls say my life can’t get any lamer.
But they’re not the ones poppin’ caps in the asses
Of 40 year old guys who pretend to be lasses.
Oops, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to offend,
But I couldn’t help but notice you can’t beat level 10.
Maybe if you let me help you out for a bit,
You can see why my guild refers to me as the shit.
Give me a controller or a mouse it doesn’t matter to me,
Cuz when it comes to schooling noobs it’s like my college degree!

Put the game in and I’ll never surrender.
Back in high school all the nerds used to call me ‘Game Ender’.
I got a huge collection, want a game and I’ll lend ya.
Just be careful with the discs I don’t want you to bend ‘em.
I got a Mario and a Sonic and a Pacman and a Link
And a collector’s edition where Master Chief wears pink.

Damn it feels good to be a gamer,
Although the girls say my life can’t get any lamer.
But they’re not the ones poppin’ caps in the asses
Of 40 year old guys who pretend to be lasses.

It’s a tough life but someone’s gotta do it.
When the world needs saving, the gamers get to it.
We rescue the princesses and take out the villains,
As the minions get in our way it’s their lives we be killin’.
We hold the all records, nobody’s higher or faster.
The one goal we all have is to be the Game Master!

Damn it feels good to be a gamer,
Although the girls say my life can’t get any lamer.
But they’re not the ones poppin’ caps in the asses
Of 40 year old guys who pretend to be lasses.
This is the last time I’m spittin’ it so you better listen up!
Even though we’re weak in real life in the games we are rough!
I don’t know what else to say, any more words would just be samer,
Ain’t nothing better in this world than being a motherfuckin’ gamer!

The Game of Spider and Fly

I found your picture the other day,
Your face made my heart melt away.
You never seem cross my mind,
Until I stumble upon some find.
I never notice your pull until it’s too late.
Even though you’re gone you’ve sealed my fate.
Like a fly caught up in a spider’s web,
You spun your strands and wrote my end.
You sucked me dry and threw away the shell,
Now I’m left to burn alone in this hell.
When it was all said and done,
You walked away and thought you won.
But looking back at it all from here,
The roles we played become so clear.
I needed you more than you needed me,
And I fed on your love, though weak as it be.
I danced to your tune not because I’m a slave.
I danced to your tune to get my own ways.
Like a fly caught up in a spider’s web,
I spun my strands and wrote your end.
I sucked you dry and then set your body free,
Letting you think you’re better off without me.
Realizing the truth about what we had,
You would think I would feel somewhat bad.
I drained every drop of you that I could,
Then let you escape while the timing was good.
Yet all I feel now is relief from the burden,
And comfort from the fact that you are now hurting.
With every hug we shared the webs were woven,
And every kiss I gave was filled with poison.
Cruelly I played my game of spider and fly,
Never knowing that my love for you was a lie.

Nice Guy

I know I’m not perfect, and I will confess.
Most of the time, my life is a mess.
I don’t have a great body. I’m not very strong.
And when faced with a question, sometimes I am wrong.
But there’s one thing I do have, that sets me apart.
The fact that I’ll love you, with all of my heart.
So when you’re…
Tired of the assholes, tired of the dicks.
Tired of the players, and all their damn tricks.
The day you look into the mirror. And hear yourself say,
“I just want a nice guy, to come take me away.”
I’ll be right where you left me, still looking for love.
Cuz to all the girls out there…I’m just not good enough.
I don’t have a lot of money, or any bit of fame.
And all the girls around me think that I’m lame.
But it’s me that is laughing at the end of the day.
While they live their fake lives, I go my own way.
That’s what makes me different. What makes me “uncool”.
The fact that I’m unique, and not just a tool.
So when you’re…
Tired of the assholes, tired of the dicks.
Tired of the players, and all their damn tricks.
Tired of the ganstas, who think they’re tough shit.
Tired of the rich snobs who don’t know when to quit.
The day you look into the mirror. And hear yourself say,
“I just want a nice guy, to come take me away.”
I’ll be right where you left me, still looking for love.
But all who passed by me, are shit out of luck.
If you think you’re too good, for a loser like me.
I’ll be too good for you, when you are in need.
I’ll find someone out there, who at first glance,
Sees that I am amazing, if just given a chance.
Someone who will love me, for all that I am:
Just an unlucky nice guy, doing what I can.
So when you’re…
Tired of the assholes, tired of the dicks.
Tired of the players, and all their damn tricks.
Tired of the ganstas, who think they’re tough shit.
Tired of the rich snobs who don’t know when to quit.
Tired of the pain, that comes from the beaters.
Tired of the bull shit, that comes from the cheaters.
The day you look into the mirror. And hear yourself say,
“I just want a nice guy, to come take me away.”
It’ll be too late to find me, I’ll already be gone.
And all you’ll have from me, is this little song.

Gemini

One body, two souls
Chasing after separate goals
Different motives all around
Build it up or burn it down
I’m a battlefield that’s been deserted
My young mind has been perverted
I was used from dusk to dawn
Useless now cuz they’re all gone
Good and evil, black and white
Used my body for their fight
Now they’re dead but I’m still here
Sanity is far from near
Stuck between I’ve seen it all
The instrument used for their brawl
Told to do so many things
I’ve lost my personality
I’m Gemini and here’s the truth
There’s two inside, I’m living proof
That for all the good there is within
There’s just as much that’s pushing for sin
I’m a battlefield that’s been deserted
Battered and broken I’m all alone
My young mind has been perverted
Far from good, to evil I’m prone
I was used from dusk to dawn
From morning to night, no end to their fight
Useless now cuz they’re all gone
Twisted perception, I see the truth
Stuck between I’ve seen it all
Death, destruction, loss, and pain
The instrument used for their brawl
And in the end I’ve nothing to gain
Told to do so many things
Owned by both, a puppet on strings
I’ve lost my personality
Empty and hallow, will my soul ever sing
The masters are gone, the beast is free
The question is now: Who will save me?

Forgot my Pen

Just had a wonderful thought but I forgot my pen
I’ll use my blood to write out what needs to be said
Would you like to hear the words of my life?
The words carved out of my bloodline?
Nobody likes the truth and there it stands
For all to see but none believe
So easy to hide in the lies
So easy to live in disguise
It’s not like me to disagree
But there’s the truth for you to see
I’m looking for the cure for monotony
Do you have it?
Can you give it?
The answer’s simple yet hard to say
Put it off until the problem goes away
Following a trend that compasses all
Dying like the blinded fools we are
Nobody likes the truth and there it stands
For all to see and some to believe
So easy to hide in the lies
So easy to live in disguise
It’s not like me to disagree
But there’s the truth and you should see
So make your mistakes and think you’re right
While some can’t sleep on through the night
Not sure where human ends and monster begins
But you’re playing a game that nobody wins
Nobody likes the truth and here it stands
For all to see and all to believe
So easy to hide in the lies
So easy to live in disguise
It’s not like me to disagree
But here’s the truth and you need to see

Forever

Isn’t it a shame how life moves us along
Never stopping and waiting to see who belongs
People come and go in the blink of an eye
Forever isn’t just impossible, it’s a lie
Please don’t say forever girl, forever’s much too far away
Let’s just hold on tight and get through tonight
I don’t wanna lie and say I’ll never leave
So don’t ask me stay and we’ll be alright
Too many lying to get what they see
Empty promises are filling the streets
I don’t want to hurt you or see you go
But don’t you want the truth? So…
Please don’t say forever girl, forever’s much too far away
Let’s just hold on tight and get through tonight
I don’t wanna lie and say I’ll never leave
So don’t ask me stay and we’ll be alright
I love you means much more than what people say
And truthfully told I want to be with you one more day
But nobody knows what the future will be
Don’t say forever girl, forever means nothing to me
