Close Enough

I woke up feeling a quarter past dead and forty five minutes from heaven

Unborn

Between the sunrise and the dawn we exist as of unborn and in dusky light I knew you but nevermore nevermore

So

And so the final battle came for me

Blood and violence welled up in me

As a spring flowing freely and wild

None stood before me none could

I was righteous I was half God like

They fell as sticks as kindling forever

My final battle my final cry.

The Reason

You know the problem with the World?

Sex Drugs and Money

And people want it.

A day

In the morning when I was born I screamed into the afternoon now as night comes it will be when I die

Chicken

Chicken friend happy simple but

Good makes life ok things are special

Living things everything are special

Life is important and they feel us

Life shouldn't be sad doom

And gloom life is a gift for every

Thing hanging in the universe

By impossible means on a dirt orb

Imagine that magic so fragile so unique

A gift life is a gift.

A place

My God I will stand here

My God I will protect

My God battle not begun

My God the hurt

The sorrow

The pain

My God

Oh my God

What is happening

Do you have the ability

To understand

My God

Poor people

Save them

From death

From pain

From suffering

My God

A war

Here

For souls

Choose a side

Good vs Evil

Oh my God

Oh my God

Savage

I was made a savage in a savage land

Made so by fire through fire

And blood

Born into blood and violence

I have become that those who savaged me

When I was a child I loved was full of love

And into adulthood early

Then a savage was born after

After blood and violence

After death

After clinging to life

Mashed glass

Broken steel

Chased by knives

Ruined by fist

I was made a savage

Made a savage

But my hearts still there

Inside

Though I am now a savage

Born into a savage land

I was made into a savage in a savage land.

Wrote

And did it matter what I wrote in the end?

Truth

The Way

And the Light

And who would believe me?

You

You would.

Done Deal

What would you trade your soul for?

Or do you believe the soul is sacred?

Like the moon

Like the river

Like the very stars above

No price for soul

No price

Did you trade it for money?

sex

drugs

No price for soul

Have you traded it already?

No you have not

It is untradable

It is yours

Always will be.
