Watch the river running backwards
See people’s choices ripped from them
Short sighted and wrong
A funeral for common sense
Watch the morning turn to night
Feed the ego, starve the rest
Thoughts and prayers, don’t give me that shit
A funeral for common sense

Distant Shores

Routine is a prison cell
Conformity a kind of hell
Yet we build these walls around us.
Our maps are chartered from birth
It’s like a goddamned curse
But we allow these bonds to tie us
Every venture starts with that first step
And it’s the hardest step of all
Set your sights on new horizons
Go in search for distant shores
When you draw your last breath
Will you feel you did it all?
Was there more to see?
Did you reach those distant shores?

The Dark Companion

Shadows dancing, all around me
Taunting and teasing, relentlessly
Invading my hopes, invading my dreams.
No one seems to hear my screams…
Voices whispering, no one there
Leading me towards the cursed lair
Sapping my strength sapping my hopes.
I stare at pills, knives and ropes.
It’s not something you can feel
It’s not something you can touch
There is no remedy… only understanding
It’s a Dark Companion. The ever present Fiend
So Be Kind, Be Fair… Just be Understanding

Scars of War
Plant the seeds into peoples’ minds
That their lives are under threat
Pick a nation or a race to fight
Ready, let’s get set…
Wars leave their scars
For years to come
Generations decimated
For a pricely sum… we cannot take no more of the scars of war.
Grow the seeds with media frenzy
War is big business
Create a narrative for the sheep to echo
Brainwashing with skilled finesse
Mankind’s maturity is stifled
By the greed and corruption of some
To find peace is the only solution
But I fear that day will never come

Journey to Hell
1. At the Gates of Hell
Standing at the gates of hell
Watching as the demons amass
I pause, rigid with fear
But I know I have no choice
Caked in chicken blood and gore
To hide my human scent
I walk cautiously through the gates
Amid screams of horror and repent
From a young age I knew I had a gift
A second sight, telekinesis
Which I used to fight all evil
Killing demons and unholy creatures
Then I met Tesia, a half demoness
I spared her life, we fell in love
I gave up my life of hunting evil
And we moved as far away as we could

Journey to Hell
2. The Path of Shadows
Walking the path of shadows
Sinners and demons all around
I keep alert, hidden among the vile
And putrid that are abound
I look to Satan’s castle
as I walk the path of shadows.
Tesia and I built a farm
Away from prying eyes
It was a life of peace and love
Where no one knew of our past lives
I gaze at Satan’s castle on the hill
As I walk the path of shadows
Demons came for her one night
I tried to fight them off, too many
I got away, beaten and broken
But vowed I would get her back again
She is a prisoner in Satan’s castle
So I walk the path of shadows.

Journey to Hell
3. The Dark Forest
Up ahead I see the trees of the dark forest
Pure evil lurks within and I know that this will be my toughest test
The blood still runs freely on my clothing
And I pray I am still invisible to those within
The dark forest –
A wedge between me and Satan’s castle
The dark forest –
A last challenge before I reach the castle
The ancient trees swallow me up, I sense evil’s wrath
All is still, just the sound of my feet on the faint path
I sense a hundred eyes watching me from the trees
Ever alert, I hope they don’t see the real me
All at once, a hundred demons pounce
It was a trap; they knew I was here
Too many to fight, I have no defence
And I am dragged through the forest…
Towards Lucifer…

Journey to Hell
4. Satan’s Castle
I drift between consciousness and fantasy
I wander from lies and reality
I am being pulled in every direction
A battle rages between truth and fiction
I come too, face on the cold stone floor
Demons all around, causing an uproar
Satan sits on his throne, grinning down at me
And Tesia sits beside him! What is this treachery?
At was all just a trick, Tesia’s love
All just a rouse to get me here
‘You have killed too many of my kin,’ he screamed
‘Now I’ll rip your soul out, you belong to me.’
But I knew all along
It was my way to get to Satan
Face to face
I drew up all the strength from hunters all around the world
The force burst from me and soon all the demons were dead
Including Tesia…
Finally, I turned to Satan
It was him, or it was me…

Journey to Hell
5. The Dead and the Dying
Faces
Masks
Lights
Satan and I confront each other
Bleach
Hands
Voices
I hold my hands together
I flash between places
Good and evil faces
I use all my strength and might
Satan lies on the ground
He hardly makes a sound
Victory is now, victory is mine
‘You have defeated me now,’ he screams
‘But I will be back.’
‘Yes,’ I said. ‘And I will be waiting.’
I see faces, wife… children
Melting worlds, darkness comes.
Voicing willing me on
I have no more strength to give
Just let me breathe… breathe another day…
