Beautiful World

Turn on your TV screen
Tell me what is it you see
All the death, war, and corruption
Never obstructs your privileged dreams
Crack the lense with which you view through
All the trusted images start to decay
Creatures of comfort change the channel
And watch the static fade away
You still believe it’s a beautiful world out there
As your brothers and sisters
Die in the street and you sit and stare
What you see isn’t always what you want to believe when you try to hide
It’s easy to say it’s a beautiful world out there
When you never look outside
And the paranoia starts to creep in
Think you’re no longer safe inside your gates
Block the doors and board all the windows
As you realize that it’s too late
The enemy is inside your head
Shake and rattle your nerves as you lay in bed
Anxiety stricken of what’s to come
Too complacent to see what needs to be done
It’s never been a beautiful world you see
Life is chaos, broken by the flights of fantasy
there’s no order here that you can find
If you really want to make this a beautiful world
God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.
It’s so beautiful
It’s so horrible

Domestic

Give me that domestic kind of love
Sterile and selfless
Always looking for that shadow to cross my path
Shifting and shapeless
Drowning in the shade of desire
Not enough now give me some more
Quench my yearning with the raging fires
Internalize the bruises and sores
Back and forth all emotion constant
I get angry all of the time
You just lay in wait for the moment
When we build upon impulses that we find
Give me that domestic kind of hate
Raging and helpless
Screaming in the void behind your face
Deranged and defenseless
And the animosity is driven
By the need to not feel alone
There was a time when the look in your eyes could make sense of the confusion
Of wanting a home
But then this house of anger
Crumbled under my watchful eye
Branded by the shameful fate
Of repeating mistakes and always wondering why?
Scream until you visualize
The courage to grab the kitchen knife and
Cut me up and drag me down
And paint my blood all over the house
And as I bleed out and die
Still I’m hypnotized
By the look in your eyes
It tears me up inside
When you burn me alive

Silent Scream
04:36
|
|||
Encased in solitude
I hear the voices whispering
I’ll cry forever until I see
That no one is listening
In the deepest depths I find
A silent scream rings out inside my mind
Telling me to keep on sinking down
Sense of self never makes a sound
Lost in my own bereavement
For the past that I cannot clean
Lost in the shattered notions
Of what I was and what I could have been.
That regret will never end
A silent scream rings out inside my head
Trapped imbalance of your own neuroses
Turn into a deadly disease
What allows me to decide?
It’s survival vs. suicide?
Have I my own agency?
To silence the voices that keep haunting me?
No help could ever hope to reach me now
At least, that’s what the screams want me
To tell myself
Too loud to comprehend
The silent screams are deafening
When I don’t how to respond
They keep on echoing
The remains of plans that I had made
Blown away by the silence where I stayed
When I couldn’t force a means to be happy
And still I suffered silently
Yet echoing
Echoing...
