Chances

Chances

Give me a second chance
That's one before three
Just a second chance
A time to see

You know the story
We've all been here before
Thing about it
The choose a door

No time for fun
The walls close in
Make your choice
Maybe you'll win

Get caught up in reality
Spend some time
Go chase a dream
Drop in a line
When you reach that dream
Now your back in a reality
It's time to go on
—Chance three

Your Time

Your Time

I could hear the voices calling
They were sending out my name
'Til my mind became aware —Come forth to lay it's claim
I tried to run
I've tried to fly
I just couldn't, believe it's time
It's my life I'm running for
Someone help me —Open a door

As I ran across the plains
Screamed for help
In complete despair
Somehow I wonder, is it fair?

"Go away, leave me alone"
There are somethings
That must be told

"You go back home"
"You check on the time"
"I'm pretty sure, it isn't mine"

A Lesson To Learn

A Lesson To Learn

It's time to put the pieces
Where they all belong
Time to sort it into faces
Taken from the pool of life
Twisted, torn and mangled

We all have shapes and angles
By which we were born
But we bent the lines
Far too many times
And now we've lost the form

Straightened out, but tatered
We all know we're shattered
Just bend your mind a few more times
And it won't really matter

Trip

Trip

I am a self destructive creation
I am only human
Yet I am beyond a human need
I have no comprehension
I am over edged

I can't hold my pencil because…
My head is fallling down to… heh, heh
I am into this fear
It is only me, but it is very real
My own mind is tearing me apart
I go three ways, body, mind and soul

My body just flops
My mind is out of control
My soul has gone, and is fighting to gain control

World in Flames

World in Flames

Today is the day, the skies are falling in
There isn't much to say, just put up with what they say
Seems like the days are getting shorter
Just not enough time, to finish the ever growing chores

They say the fire burns lower everyday
I say the're liars!
I feel the hear of the fire
In actuality I see the flames growing higher
A I look around, the flames swallow me

I feel the pain, as they eat away my brain
My body's in a vise
And I really wish, really wish
You'd all stop bothering me
