The soul never sleeps It see's adolescent behavior on a big scale Once more the arms of war on sale I detest violence vehemently I stamp my tantrum feet as a child relentlessly Even in my dreams little respite From the apprehensive dread of the devil's bite Severe mercy Transcendental meditation Transpersonal dissociation More war, sordid whore Catatonic heap defaces the floor Oh remorse and entreaties Oh despair and wringing Oh come love bringing!
Layers and layers of phenomena Mysteries ever abound Yet our untimely knuckles drag the ground Incomprehensible inscrutable invidious bile Damnable war never rests a while I've come to expect its a natural state Will humanity always regard it as ho hum fate I try to look away, fain smiles, reply "I'm fine" The deception is for them I really want to die No more war, no more lies Oh remorse and entreaties Oh despair and wringing Oh come love bringing!
The nature of war blooms bullets and bombs In battlefields of glory That quickly turn into gardens of grief Rained down upon with the blood of innocence Lost to hate fueled by years of violence breeding violence And the coffins fall in place as the body count marches on And spit shine the corpse for the beautiful parade For the heroes of war and the soldiers of peace Who sleep with the horrors of what they've seen And the horrors of what they've done Tucked away tight and safe Inside name brand body bags and precisely folded flags And what victory can be seen In the tears of a mothers heart Or the pride in a fathers eyes And the nature of war blooms on As the cannons keep roaring And the political speakers keep up The rhetoric of violent ballets of misinformation To keep the war machine grinding The bones of new enemies With the same old perpetuated propaganda To keep the masses foaming at the mouths To dress up in uniforms of legalized murder And the casual lie Of the freedom everyone is fighting for And it's the iron fist that controls the land of the free And it's the strong arm of might Making everything alright with the nature of war
There's a war. Miles away it's Being fought. & all the proof Is what we see, The images Unfolding on the Screens & we're Made to feel The unease. The empathy & Uncertainty & Hopeless inevitability. But the Unsaid truth Is that this chaos Doesn't feel quite As real as The one closer to Home. the one that Doesn't border a Town, but a head & heart & takes It down just as hard.

War
And the child cried out,
ВЂњOh what have I done? It's World War I A hell of my own, ”
She's nothing but an instigator Thinking everybody hates her
It was never meant to go so far A war she'd hoped would never start
war.

War
Life throws me a grenade A lemon if you will The sourest it could find I like sour, but still
At some point I need sugar But the effort is not but strife So my only option is To throw the lemon back at life
war.

This Love Is A War
Trust and hope are your soldiers. Don't let them die. Lust is your enemy, make him starve. Words are your weapons, use them with care, few at a time. And, love is the reward for this war.
Welcome to the future, To the past, To the present, I'll see you tomorrow, I'll see you in heaven, Like a winner you succeed in the only way you can, Like all the controversial subject religion tries to ban, So ill look at your reflection and identify your flaws, When were are road of imperfections which is always pointing north, If we were an object we would be a shoelace, Always left undone, maybe it's better that way.
I'm sorry I didn't realise you can't lend a helping hand, Since strictly speaking we come from the same place in the sand, And if we don't help what does that make us, We don't want the irony behind the words, Another one bit the dust. To be true, to be blue I hope it makes you think. Be the together not the same, My friend.
