The Song No One Knows- by: unknown forgotten

He got loaded alone one night
And he started playing guitar
He couldn't remember anything at that point
The date or the name of his girlfriend

He started singing a song he had never learned
It was 4 o'clock in the morning
The sky was black as night
His windows were fully open
The neighbors could hear him sing

They awoke to the noise confused
And were about to yell across the way
But instead they sat there silently
And sang along to the song no one knew

His cell phone dialed in his pocket
It called his Dad who lived far away
He answered thinking it was an emergency
Reaching for the bed lamp and sitting up straight

He didn't know who had called him
But listened to them sing and play
He recognized the voice but couldn't place it
So he hummed along to the song he'd never heard

And to this day no one can repeat it
Many more people sang the words that night
And try as they may they can not remember it
It will remain the song that no one knew

Every once in awhile when he's all alone
He still gets loaded and picks up his guitar
Forgets everything and everyone he's ever known
And plays the song he never learned
But the windows have always been closed
And no one else hears it

My mind is harsh
My heart is soft

That High Pitched Noise and Screaming- by: unknown forgotten

Oh I am a sinner man
All covered in blood
I am a sinner man
All covered in blood
You said you'd save me
You never told me a thing
But the way you are gave me that sign

Well I am a sinner man
Who's taken his own life
I am a sinful soul
Screaming for relief
But you will not help me
You will not believe
Deep down in your own heart
You can save the world

Well I am sinner man
I can stop the bleeding myself
Glory has it's reason
Glory is a gift
Mercy has meshed with my skin
Mercy has saved me from bleeding to death

Folly- by: unknown forgotten

Stumbling through the woods
A boy with an arrow through his ribs
He scrambled up the hillside covered in blood
He tripped upon a slain deer
Insects devouring it's corpse
He laid down next to it
And huddled against it's remaining warmth

Yeah! who walks through the valley of the shadow of death.? Yeah!
You can meet me there, and all the rest!
I'm getting lost and struggling to make it out
Fighting for infinity is blood never shed.
Here we are again.

If nothing else
I celebrate the existence of being.

Holding On - by: unknown forgotten

I am afraid to say
But once born in me as a child was an evil laid to break
And as I wander the lonely city streets
I can ever feel it pounding beneath my skin
It nearly ruptures my heart every earthen night
It practically explodes my brain when I am left alone to think
And all the while I look to Jesus
And he calms the fiery flame

oh woe is me (HA!) - by: unknown forgotten

I don't really eat anymore
I'm never hungry
I don't really love anymore
I can't find a way
I don't sleep anymore
There's no time to waste
I don't do anything anymore
I just sit around and wait
I don't do anything anymore
Such a sad time
I just sit around and drink
HA!
I am
I am everyone and everyone else.

So welcome to the future- by: unknown forgotten

This week is like bizarro week
I don't work I don't fret
I have time to do chores and time to waste
I can stay up late and sleep in too
I can meet with friends whenever
I can be free like everyone I know
I can worry but it does no good
I can lay back or do good but either way I'm just killing time
I can meet you or be afraid and nap
And can correct wrongs or just make it all wrong
This is bizarro week where things play as they may
I can do anything, but I don't really have any control
I need someone to take the handle and move me in the right way

You already know when I know I've gone too deep into nothing.
Ouch.
Then it can't hurt worse when I sink in quicksand.
Huzzah. Help me.

Different Now- by: unknown forgotten

Well that's over
And I've been thinking
New things need to begin
I've got a question for you
And some things to say

Life is short
Life is shit
And soon it will be over

I failed
Hit me next time you see me

I can't really do two things at a time

Even I regret when these eyes turn black
When you're waiting for light

underground- by: unknown forgotten

Terrorize the innocent
To convict the guilty
Show the bystanders shame
To convict the masses
All are guilty
All need to be taught a lesson

They call me anywhere boy
As long as there's another anywhere mind

The Seven Bowels of Seven Dragons Becoming to Man-

Deep down inside all men there lies seven dragons
They feed on themselves from the inside out
And out of their bowels flow torment and death
As is in the end of days we shall all pay for harboring the scaled beasts

The first dragon went out and poured his bowels upon the land
Ugly and painful sores broke out on the people
On all those who worshiped themselves

The second dragon poured out his bowels upon the sea
It turned into blood like that of a dead man
And everything in the sea died

The third dragon poured out his bowels on the rivers and springs of water
They too became blood
He then bellowed loudly, smoke seeping from his nostrils:
" We are just in these judgments
You who are, and who were, bearers of we evils laying inside you all,
because you have so judged when you do not have the right;
We have shed the blood of your saints and prophets
And we have devoured them, and drank their blood
As all humans have brought forth, for all are sinners and deserving of death."
The masses emerged from their homes, eyes blood red, and cried:
"Untrue and unjust have been our judgments!"

The fourth dragon poured out his bowels on the sun
And the sun was given power to scorch the people with fire
They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God
Even when they had brought these plagues upon themselves
But they refused to realize it

The fifth angel poured out his bowels on the heart of every man
And each man's kingdom was plunged into darkness and devastation
Men gnawed their tongues in agony
And cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and woes
but they refused to recognize how they had destroyed their lives

The sixth angel poured out his bowels on the great river Euphrates
And it's water was dried up to prepare a way for more dragons to progress

Then there was three evil spirits that looked like frogs
They came out of the mouth of the dragon
Out of the mouth of beasts
And out of the mouth of man
They transformed into false prophets performing miraculous signs
And they spread across the whole world
To gather men for the battle on the great day of destruction

The seventh dragon poured out his bowels into the air
And out of the dragon's caves came a loud voice saying:
"It is done!"
Then there came flashes of lightning,
rumblings, peals of thunder, and a severe earthquake
No earthquake like it has ever occurred since man has been on earth
So tremendous was the quake the earth split in three
And the cities and nations collapsed
The dragons remembered the faces of the very worst of men
Swooped down and engulfed them in flames through their flaring mouths
Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found
From the sky huge hailstones of about a hundred pounds each fell upon man
And they cursed each other
Because the plague was so terrible

(Inspired by Revalations Ch. 16)

Water- by: unknown forgotten

I drank so much water
I drank so much water I began to feel sick
It was supposed to make me feel healthier
So I drank more
I drank water until my teeth were cold
And my stomach overfilling
And I kept drinking
I chugged and chugged the clear liquid of life
I was going to be healthy
And that was the way
I drank water until it started to come out of my eyes
On my knees I fell over and fell asleep
An empty glass of water
And a tear stain on my face
It was going to be alright

Spitting Blood Revisited
Part II: Hit & Run- by: unknown forgotten

Next time I follow my intuition
I need you more than ever
In cases like this my life flashes before my eyes
Not during the disaster
But after I've gotten up bleeding and walked away
As I lay on the pavement checking for pouring blood
Feeling my limbs to see if any are missing
I saw you in my distorted vision
For a moment I forget about the disaster
For a moment I forget about the pain
The blood and agony is only second to your vision in my mind
And it all comes down to my intuition
My sense of self control
I remembered where I made the mistake
I'm sick of living in the retrospective
I shall speak free forever more

I need a hug
or a hand to hold
A pulse to set my rythme by
A heart to pace my heartbeat
A moment to slow down
Just sit still in peace

Flee From Me You Bastard- by: unknown forgotten

I woke up in the morning
Then I rode into a car
I looked down from the balcony
Then I saw myself sliding on the ground
I drove away leaving me laying on the ground
I thought about the future
And how it was at this moment
Disturbed from my previous wanted ways

I tightened down my pedals
Then I bent them right next to my bleeding ankle
He brought me inside and gave me drink
I wondered what the taillights were thinking as they pulled away from the scene
This is fucked what the fuck
I wish I had plowed into them
So they could see what happens
See what happens when idiots drive 4 wheels
Where were they going
Where did I go?

I wiped down the frame and left it was cold
Then I hurled myself and bike onto the pavement
For no reason but sure pleasure and enjoyement
Because, really, I really do
I really love destruction
and I really love being hurt

Trinity- by: unknown forgotten

Explosions in the sky
Tanks on the ground
Soldiers marching
I was the second one shot down
Third to die

My Own Grave- by: unknown forgotten

I've got this deal
It's called a dissappearing act
It's a trick, more of a trap
I fall into it
And am not heard from for awhile
I dug the hole already
All I need is incentive to take one more step

but really
while you're watching
I just sneak out the back
And don't come back

I am great.

I broke my last lightbulb
From here out it's only getting darker.

You love what you die for.

Forget It- by: unknown forgotten

Hey give me another drink
I'm trying to drown myself from being great
Hey put me down tonight
Smother me with a pillow and please don't cry
oh I'll be screaming from beneath the down
but after it's over we can all just forget it

We can all just forget
In the future we can all lose our memory if we try hard enough
White wash a memory we loved so much
Clean the slate and erase everything

We can all forget if we try hard enough
Just lose all thought and change the subject
Burn a hole in our brains and delete the thought process

We can all forget
We can all just forget
As easy as that
We can forget
But taking it that far
Getting to the point where we no longer want to relate
Has to be one of the hardest theories we could ever create

and in the end
I can not forget a thing

I am all wrong
When won't I feel distraught?

I want to understand.

The Ghost Heart- by: unknown forgotten

Tonight I turn the music up loud to drown my dreams

I like to drink before I sleep
To erase the memory of everything that day

'Nevermind me'
It's quite a motto
for destruction nonetheless
When redemption is all I wish to possess

Wearing Thin Before My Time- by: unknown forgotten

If you ask me once
I will say nothing ever again

If I see one more person pass by and entirely ignore me
(Such as is my existence)
Even yet, when I'm speaking to them
I'm going to break apart into the air so thin

Watching eyes and never do they meet
Stepping aside and watching everyone relate
How easily I break and dissipate

I wanted you there
until I realized the darkness and desolation I express
When the ground started to sink in
The heavens rained down fire
I was glad you were not there
But only to avoid the disaster that lie there within
If I had seen your face I would have broken
I would have fell to my knees
but instead I was lost wondering to make sense of the catastrophe

Take another look
Look at me
My back is still broken
Look again
Now stop looking

It's been so long that I've forgotten how to hold a serious conversation with someone
I don't know how to start
I don't know how to reply
I don't know how to ask
I am out of practice

Take a look
Look at me here
My back is broken

I think it's safe to say
that you are a reoccuring character in my dreams

When I test the waters
I always forget how to swim

I want to embrace
I am a boring character
Afraid of risk

Concentration- by: unknown forgotten

It's beginning to get hard to concentrate
It's getting difficult to sit still when alone
It's becoming a problem to get to bed before late
It's always a worry of life under the moon
It's a continuing problem with a tense back that aches and cracks
It's still a spinning dizzy head that pains the brain
It's never being able to completely understand the facts and relax
It's a hard enough time already staying sane without devastation
It's wrestling the whole world within the worst holy wrath
It's destroying dreams deep down to dispose disputant distress
It's sincere substance survival versus surreality's silhouette of salvation and sensibility
It's null normality and neglect narrating nonsense nostalgia notwithstanding notoriety
Zealous of Zeus in the zenith zigzagging through the o-zone, my zeppelin will arrive at zerohour to zoom me to Zion behind the zircon sun. I will rest in the zephyr and zinnia's playing my zither as a zombie.

Concentration, what! -by: unknown forgotten

For it's beginning to get hard to concentrate
Ubiquitous, it's getting difficult to sit still when alone
Course, it's becoming a problem to get to bed before late
Keeping as it's always been, a worry of life under the moon
Yet it's a continuing problem with a tense back that aches and cracks
Often it's just a spinning dizzy head that pains the brain
Usually it's never being able to completely understand the facts and relax
Jaded, it's a hard enough time already staying sane without devastation
Of course, it's wrestling the whole world within the worst holy wrath
Subtly, it's destroying dreams deep down to dispose disputant distress
Heinous, it's sincere substance survival versus a surreal silhouette of salvation and sensibility
Under it all, it's null normality and neglect narrating nonsensical nostalgia notwithstanding notoriety
And in the end, zealous of Zeus in the zenith, zigzagging through the o-zone my zany zeppelin will arrive at zerohour to zoom me to Zion behind the zircon sun.
! I will rest in the zephyr and zinnia's playing my zither as a zombie and eating zesty zwieback. Zing!

Ghetto-

Good Sir or Ma'am to whom which I speak,
You do not know whom I am, or from whence I have arrived.
I shall do so as I please and see proper.
Regardless of any incoherence there may be between us.
Thank you, and I shall be on my way.
My good Sir or Ma'am! Shame be on you!
I surely hope you did not commit the actions I have just now, this very moment, witnessed.
Speak only to the palm of my hand that I have presented in front of you as a sign of commanded silence, or rather do not continue to speak further on this matter, for I wish not to hear any more of what you may have to say at this present juncture.
Good day, and thank you for behaving so rationally. Let us now part ways, leaving this issue mutually unresolved, to avoid any further complications that could lead to aggression.

Half of me always wants to say "fuck it" and give up
The other half of me persists
and tries to keep moving
Fighting against what the other half sees insignificant
it does so, thankfully
The latter keeps my heart pumping
and does so, even when it hurts

Even yet how jealous I grow
Lord help me lay low

Listen Closely to the Human- by: unknown forgotten

The sound of a sole person pacing about in a completely silent room
The set of every foot on the ground, one after the other
The sole of the shoe touching the ground
The squeak and stretch of the shoe as force is put upon it
The brush of the pant cloth rubbing together
and the movement of the legs deciding if that noise be made depending on step
The sound of breathing that is so often over looked
Each and every inhale, each and every exhale
The silence that abides in between
The arms swaying

Feel the action of introspection
Every muscle moves and they are there to be felt
The neck is holding up the head
The back is stiff in uprightness
The legs are tense, even when relaxed to support the entire human mass
The toes move endlessly, every step the flex and bend to balance the mass
Fingers twitch or lie still, depending on the conscious and unconscious signals sent from the brain
Feel every nerve end as the clothes embody your skin
Your shirt, your underwear, your socks
Feel your hair rest lightly upon your scalp!
It is always there touching you, yet we forget
The face expresses concern, sadness, glee, it's infinite!
And the heartbeat beat beat beat beat beat
The grumble of an empty stomach
The cracking of a worn joint
The human is a marvel
in silence pacing we disrupt the tranquility
The silence we disrupt is overlooked

Saints- by: unknown forgotten

I bit the bullet
It broke my teeth and came out the back of my neck
I caught the arrow in my hand
Or so I tried
It kept going and sliced two fingers off my right hand

You were a saint
You used to be
So was I
Back in the monastery in our vow of silence
I could levitate and turn water into wine
You could heal the wounded with your spit and slight of hand

Now we're desperate men
Changed hearts and confused minds
So I tried one last attempt
To prove my worthiness in this life

I had bitten the bullet
It didn't turn out so well
I caught the arrow
I'm handicapped for the rest of my life
Last I heard you were dead
Died drunk choking on your own vomit
Your bloodstream infected with disease

I meditated in a field of lilacs
To levitate once again
I rose high above the ground
Higher even yet
A large gust of wind came down from the heavens
And blew me off the horizon like a speck of dust

We were saints
We used to be

Try And Follow Me- by: unknown forgotten

It was like greasy pavement
And a burning tree
Whirled up into one big monstrosity
There was black skies
And protestors chanting
Cars everywhere
Something being rumored about burglaries
Cinder blocks and yellow paint
Sewage and railroad tracks forcing upon the senses
It was like a tv exploding (which I've never seen)
and an empty stroller rolling freely down a hill
Furniture knocked over
Stoves smoking in empty homes
And a dog fight
I heard a gunshot
After I felt the bullet enter my flesh
And that was it
I remember nothing else

Romantics- by: unknown forgotten

Oh divine incantation
Why do my eyes dash away at moments last
And walk away somewhere else
When with thee I've never better felt
Lay still, let your mind sleep
I will not move an inch until you awake
For to disturb you in this precious moment
Would be a ruin against myself
I too, silent slumberer, shall sleep the best sleep of my life

You were in my dream
Directly before I awoke
Your eyes glowed brightly
Your face illuminating
The thing I love most
Is that even when you are not here
You still make me smile at thought

Improvident Sunday- by: unknown forgotten

Oh how the clock hands turn slowly
I woke up early for no reason
Expecting to win the world over
but lo, I as the cold gray sky moves slowly
I am still here
Purely exsisting to exist
No cause or matter for now
The world hustles and frets
Creating, making life change
But as the clock moves ever so slowly
I will have gotten nothing done
I long for escape in the hour
I long for adventures and danger and fun
I would venture out into the wind and the cold
If only I had a means to travel
If only I had somwhere to go

Chewing on a paperclip
Biting down on tin foil
I don't have any fillings
It doesn't hurt
Gnawing on gravel
Sucking on dirt

There's no time
And that's what proves me wrong
Because I can't face you now
Forgive me if I try anyway

I say
I say across the great divide
Is a union so strong that the canyons walk to each other
That the gravity is so strong mighty eagles soaring fall to the ground
That rivers flow upwards and the air is sweet
The mountians flatten themselves to make up the mass
To create what was always meant to be
To close the gap between
To close the great divide for once and for all
To seal the earth whole again

And then I went to sleep.

The world within I live
The world within I work
The world within I love
The world within I write
The world within I die

I Don't Remember (Considering Forgetting)- by: unknown forgotten

So I was thinking of forgetting
And it's probably a good idea
if I went ahead and did that
and stopped thinking
and started forgetting

The Tale of the Bypassed Hero- by: unknown forgotten

I will not draw an end to this chapter
Though my mind so often tells me to
I can fight the dragons that call themselves human
I can see you're a damsel lost in the night
I don't know what character I play yet
Sometimes I feel I am not really any part
but I will refuse that belief for the time being
I can be more than that
I am the hero, anti-hero so it shall be
That will slay the dragons in the end
Somehow I will rise to the moment
And walk righteously and loved the rest of my life

The Same Fucking Thing- by: unknown forgotten

Where is love?
Where is it's stance?
What is it's chance?
Where are it's hooks and strings?
Where is love?
Where is the arrow through the heart?
Is that good or it is only hurt?
How does it show its face?
How does is show humility and disgrace?
Where is love?
Why does it haunt us so?
Why does it linger overhead?
Why does it often never show?
Where is love?
What is it's plan?
How long will it last?
How long will it enchant?
Where is love?

You Ask Me - by: unknown forgotten

I reach that point where I become so abstract and non-informative
That nobody gets the jist of what I'm saying
Huzzah to that, don't get me wrong
You're confused and I've brought that onslaught
I am then thoroughly pleased if it is appropriate according to me
But this conflicts with what I'm really trying to say when it need be so
Which I should never really say for reasons that it has always backfired
Always, thus leading me into further silence and distorted interpretations
Altering the appearance to lead your mind conveniently astray
Unless there is a solid concensus and preapprovement on what should be said
without me giving the notion that that is what I would like to say,
but only with whom I'm interacting with on a one to one basis,
I will hold virtually silent reagarding any discussion that requires me express my mind and heart
In social cased I end up being the odd man out in the circle of several people
Thrown aside by my lack of words, and/or my lacksadaisical innuendos that are no more than common speach amongst people, that for no reason should be taken for more than it is, yet I expect it to be interpreted as an exceptional notion of exaggerated, yet heartfelt truth
Thus leaving me disenchanted, disassociated, and once again, not wanting to say what I have to say

I will be alive again, someday...

Serpents at Night- by: unknown forgotten

I had a dream I was bitten by two snakes
They were hanging from a tree as I walked outside a house
One bit my left hand
I shook it off, grabbed it by its neck and threw it a away
The second bit my right hand
Between the thumb and forefinger
I let it inject inject its vile poison
I watched as it pumped venom into my skin
I could the feel the poison working
Swelling up my arm and my veins
Finally it let go after half a minute
And I grabbed it by the neck
Let go and ran as it tried to bite me again
Just out of reach it hissed a vile noise
And I felt weary
I was dying

I think I've met both snakes
They're killing me right now
Always in the back of my mind
And although I've never been bitten
You've been killed twice already

And you were there
In a flashback within my dream
As I was explaining hurriedly to someone of what just happened
I collapsed to the ground
And in the vision I saw you
We were hugging our arms wrapped around
The people just stood by as my life fled

Today is the day I rise to fame
And lay waste to all ye motherfuckers on the earth
I'm a hero in my own regards
After today there will be no more scum
I will lay waste to the evil and wrongdoers
Today I will rise to fame

I'm breaking under my ignorance
I tell myself all I need is time
Well time has come and gone

And after all that, what do we have to say to ourselves?

Let's get light years away from all things that people say
My tongue is tied too tight
If I ever learned to converse I could learn something

At this moment
Exactly replicated in the far future
But before cars can fly freely
I will be remember what happened
And I will console you regardless of the latter
I will never be shot down

What is it that I am doing?

What I (haven't) hear(d)- by: unknown forgotten

I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm glad, yet further confused, to hear that.
I don't want to hear that.
I'm looking forward to hear that.
I'll hear from you.
Even better, I'll contact you.

I've never observed my own behavior.

This winter stands alone.

The future looks good
I am full of hope
I will I prevail
Here I am honest
God is my witness
Only if you believe in me

I am burning under the moon
And cooling in the ocean

Lady Temptress, Lady Doom, Lady Lover, Lady Could Lay Ruin- by: unknown forgotten

I ride to come home
Until then I will remain alone
Hear me now
Lady, now, hear me again
I am coming soon
I've fallen
And if you don't mind
Lady, I will stay down for this moment in time
I'm just waiting until you quit picking my soul for the gold coin inside
Even though you don't know
It's only wrapped with gold foil
And filled with chocolate inside

What's that, Lady, you love chocolate?
What's that Lady, you didn't even care?
Where this chocolate is 1/2 my blood
And if you still find it worthy to consume...

Lady! Don't trick me into joy
If you rip open my chest and tear out my heart
Let it be to hold near to yours
because in life that is all I wish

Lady, I will lay my life for you
As the Song of Eternity goes
"I will see you from this moment
To forever more and more."

Don't fret, Lady, I will be there
Forever more and more.

Sundancer, The Destruction of RA!- by: unknown forgotten

Quite often I wish I was always alone
To bide my time in the middle of the night
The sincerity in seclusion is rewarding

I lay on the gasoline soaked floor
It wicks into my clothes and I gag from the fumes
Oh, take me now oh lord

The knife cuts my finger open wide without my consent
The deepest red blood weeps slowly, then painstakingly
I squeal and nearly cry as it rains down on down on down

Dear christ, help me now
I've tasted the oil, it's on my lips
I've altered every point in my life to make it not spark

but "NAY!" you say
And instead you make every point burst to life
I cry out in distraught in the middle of the mess

"Stop the horror! Let my heart rev high!?" I scream in distress
Of course it will not pulse consistently
My brain cut off from the nerve center it so utterly requires

I run down the street at full speed weeping
The rain soaks my bare skin to a slough
"I will not give up! I will not!" my flooded soul determines

Slipping on a drain-hole I lose my grip
My jaw hits the ground first
What a dream as my life blazes before me

I predicted this moment many yonder days
"But you were mine, and I was yours!
Now, at this moment, we are neither!" I cry

In the darkest of all nights
My head is spilt upon the ground
Brains spinning, splattered, sliding down the hill

"Here I come, Lord. I am yours."
My body slides short of fifteen feet
And stops a brutally mangled mess

My story ends as the problem has not been solved
So many issues to be addressed that take so much time
Once I make an order for mercy
It will take a couple of weeks to arrive
