Killer Bees (Nihilist Pt. 3)

Never were the shadows
casting all your woes
Our hope is bouncing off of sun
Would you still be there,
Could you not be there,
After all, we’re letting go
until we’re safe and sound
There’s beauty in decay
There’ll be another way
for you and me

Never were the evils
casting off of your sins
Only you can forgive yourself
Death’s a beautiful help
Life is a towering wall
A soldier fights to die
until you’re safe and sound
There’s beauty in decay
For there’ll be another day
for you and me
until we’re safe and sound
The killer bees will make their honey
and the night will clear you away

Arresting Development

Consummate your marriage when you’re a never-nude
Applaud your friend when you’re readily backstabbing
Love your girlfriend when you’re sexing a dude
Profess your profundity when you’re bullshiting
Protesting to be objectified when you enjoy it
Expand your vocabulary when you’re abusing the thesaurus
Despise mimicry when you’re excellent at it
Live by your choices when you’re depending on self-help books
Lament your woes when you’re actually happy
Try beating them when you really want to join them
Write like Edgar Allan Poe when you don’t even know poetry
Praise God when and only if you’re asking something for him
Purport honesty when your life is a lie
Love your job when they’re exploiting you
Maintain a poker face when you want to cry
Disguise your poverty with seemingly branded clothes
Love yourself when you hate everything you do

The Heart Shivers to Your Thoughts

Mustering hope
for memories you grope
Threading in tightrope,
dashing off of noir
The heart shivers to your thoughts

After all the dreams
while stealing daylight
because your truths’re uptight
with the things you love the most
until the mind shivers to your thoughts

Aimless memory,
and your eternity
or must I wage war with time
An accidental crime
‘O clear the night

to this midnight man
The untimely sighs
in weightlessness,
The heart’ll shiver to your thoughts
We all are loaning time
