Redemption

Twas a tough decision,
Over a crazy obsession.

Agitated by reality,
I lost all of my morality.

Now here I stand, lone and high,
Without a soul asking why.

As I lean onto nothingness,
I'm surrounded by an emptiness.
.
I can feel the air,
Rushing through my hair.

Consumed by eternity,
I embrace the brutality.

I feel the touch, I feel the pain
Its a feeling that I can't explain.

And now I feel no more
As my spirit drifts through the door.

A dazzling light guides me on
Towards the break of a new dawn.

Carnival Of Rust

I thought I'd be heroic and strong,
But as a kid, I was very wrong
I'd dreamt of saving the human race,
All I managed was screw up my face.
Told my pals about my cause,
But they called me the freak I was.
People told me to be practical
But my dreams built on, magical.
I'd thought of having a bit of fun
Now I can't undo the things I've done.
I realize now as I'm being blown
The time I'd wasted laughing alone.
As I stand and look back these years
I wish my eyes wouldn't well up with tears.
All I see is the setting sun
An empty sea, an emptier horizon.
