Walking Into the Light- by: unknown forgotten

I don't feel alright
I'm in so much pain I'm bleeding out my eyes
I can't see a thing
Can't you see? Can't anyone see?
Are we all so blind?

Walking into the light
Peering through the red haze
I don't feel alright
That's why I must say my last goodnight
I'm finally going home

It's kind of like I'm dead
But I don't know it
And I'm the only one who doesn't know it

I find out for myself it hurts
For a lifetime
The Connective-Tissue Epimysium and Perimysium of the Ankle- by: unknown forgotten

No one has ever seen an ankle ache
Or seen an ankle weep
Like the ankle attached to that lengthy limb
Most commonly known as my leg

Oozing puss and thick heavy scabs
Achilles tendonitis and adidas sambas
Laying yourself down on concrete
To avoid the wild cars
Running miles and miles
Braces to restrict the swelling
I'll never be well again

No ankle stretch will ever stretch my ankle
No ankle will never stretch like this ankle doesn't stretch
The tense tendons tear to pieces
I can hardly walk
"Fuck, it hurts."

A hole in my ankle
Mutilated foot-wrist
I've been shot down
Which one of you hunters got me?


Secure- by: unknown forgotten

You remember how I crossed the tight wire without falling?
And when I ran across the crumbling rope bridge?
And that time I hung from a rope and traversed that building?
Or that time I jumped out of that plane with no parachute?
Or how I fought off those sharks with a pocket knife on a key chain?
And how I saved the president with a balloon full of shaving cream?
And how I drove that delivery truck full of bombs off a cliff and jumped out at the last second?
Or the time I single handedly took out that squadron of ex-marines?
And that time I lit the entire world on fire?
I won't go back there. I won't.
He Had A Knife But Never Used It- by: unknown forgotten

After the vicious dinosaurs
And after the creation of man
There was a ghost that lingered the earth
He lived for no reason but to be

He was a ghost that walked through trees
Stood in the belly of a tyrannosaurus
And walked on water at ease

He talked sincerely with triceratops'
He fell asleep with a family of brontosaurus'
And he slept in the beds of the first humans
Though he was a ghost,
And they never knew he was there

He crossed over tar pits
He walked to the tops of handmade towers
He made a call on a cell phone
Years before they ever existed

Shed a tear for the ghost that to this very day
Still walks about on this earth
On this crowded, confusing earth

Master Magician- by: unknown forgotten

Watch me vanish into thin air
I'm so good at it you won't even notice
Be it weeks from whence I've gone

I'll throw down a puff of smoke
Look into your eyes
And be gone forever

But really I slip out the back
Behind the black stage curtain you didn't notice
Through the emergency exit, I get in a cab

Into the abyss I ride
Never to be seen again
The greatest disappearing act ever performed

Into a state you've never been
After I'm gone I can do everything I've ever dreamed
Or so I think-
-that this new found lonesome freedom
will bring me all that I ever need

Time will tell, time will show the consequence
Of running miles and miles away
and refusing to look back at what was loved and never said

I've already done it once before
And I shall never do it again
Until the Lord calls me to His peace

Learn from my mistakes
The greatest magician who still failed



The Tides, The Wind, The Clouds Change- by: unknown forgotten

He looked through the rippling clouds
And saw the eyes of God looking down
He was beaten and tired
Ill and unhealthy
He looked into the moon as the Lord winked
And the world spun faster than ever before
To remove the clouds
To reveal stars never seen before
They were lined in a way to spell out your name
And the Lord struck him back
Falling to the ground He told him:
"Be the man I have created you to be.
You once knew what that was, but have forgotten.
Deep inside you can be great,
But you must find out for yourself."
And his spirit was broken
For he recalled a time in his life where he was everything he could be
Thus his spirit remained broken for some time
He wondered when it would be mended
He wondered when was the appointed time?
