The Predator

Feline grace and eyes that burn my heart
Wicked Soul she’ll tear my life apart
Toy with me, she pulls me by the strings
Addicted to the cruel pain she brings
Can’t escape I never wanted to
She feeds a need, a pain that’s vile and cruel
Beckons me I never can resist
Ecstasy, the more she will persist
‘And she’s haunting me.
And she’s stalking me, The Predator!’
Snakelike grip upon my heart and soul
Venom flowing, torture takes its toll
Silence me with a cutting glance
Talons raised, I watch her slow advance
Unprepared for her lithe attack
Down on the floor, I’m lying on my back
Succubus, nocturnal predator
She leaves me bleeding crying out for more
‘And she’s haunting me. The Predator!
And she’s stalking me, The Predator!’
She calls, I fall, She calls, I fall, She calls...
‘And she’s haunting me. The Predator!
And she’s stalking me, The Predator!’

Dark Times Ahead

Through the mists of time we have returned to here
A world in decay lies before us and darkness looms
The return of the past in ‘respectable’ guise
The message the same through deception and travesty
What will they do when there’s no one to blame?
What will they do when there’s no one to blame?
A terrible lie we have swallowed as truth
Poison our minds, blind our reason and no one gains
Only those drunk on power and fame
Fall Down. Fall Down.
Dark times ahead...
Castigation, the conflagration fuels the hate
Raping our minds...
The downward spiral
Toxic, vile
And we reap what we sow!
And we reap what we sow!
A terrible truth before us
All light is fading into darkness
And no one gains here
No one left now to blame
The past comes back to haunt us

Cast Aside

Cast me aside, discard my broken heart
Take all my hopes and dreams and throw them to the wind
Your cruel eyes, your cold and empty smile
They disillusion me and break my shattered soul
Cast Me Aside, leave me on the shore
No fond farewell or tears just heartless apathy
Cast Me Aside, Cast Me Away, Cast Me Aside, Cast Me Away, Cast Me Aside
What is it worth? This toxic deal of ours
A castle built on sand crumbling to the ground
A lesson learned, old now with regret
A sad and wiser man, guarded, no more pain
Cast Me Aside, leave me on the shore
No fond farewell or tears just heartless apathy
Cast Me Aside, Cast Me Away, Cast Me Aside, Cast Me Away, Cast Me Aside
Cast me far away...

Reflections

So here I lie...
Looking back to where it all began
The Hourglass, tells me that my time is soon to come
The Hourglass, tells me that my time is soon to come
This game of chance we play
No guarantees they say
Reflecting on my life
The wasted years they taunt
An emptiness takes hold
I watch my death unfold
I fear for those I will leave behind
What time we waste!
Playing futile games and spurning chance
I played it safe, let my dreams decay through fear and doubt
I played it safe, let my dreams decay through fear and doubt
This game of chance we play
No guarantees they say
Reflecting on my life
The wasted years they taunt
An emptiness takes hold
I watch my death unfold
I fear for those I will leave behind
Then Fade. Endure. Then Fade
