Crazies and Radicals

[crazybitch]

the monster sat paralyzed
no emotion, no reason to care
He'd cry for himself maybe
or maybe he was never here
I hear the cell slam shut

In his cell he hears the silence
Echo black holes and dead souls
the monster screams in tears
if only he had never been here

If he felt the blood pulse in his hands
then maybe he'd understand
the worthlessness of man
when war is waged again

a violent heart is caged
in death, we take our last steps
the monster wanted this
the monster wanted it to end
in a nonsensical way

but for forgiveness, what is
the price to pay...to kill the innocent
child, the innocent thousands
in line, they wait for the answer
maybe he did it because

maybe it was blindness
the world is a war zone
full of prisoners who want to be let out
but the criminals
always kill the ones who should stay

the ones the Angels wanted
To make Heaven of Humanity

Monster...why?
Monster...why?

Faces of Snow

He sees only her ephemeral beauty
adoring her sweet smile, and still
love trumps a powdered world--
where a mind is darker than a pill

ugly girls weep under faces of snow
like stars wrapped in artificial light
narrated by an eternal hazy shadow
laughing to keep out winter's fright.

I wish it were easier-- I have to confess
to be as sugary and white as frosting on a cake.
to be unblemished by this absurd madness
For from this sleep, I'd never have to wake.

And if I had this wonderful dream,
I'd sell my soul for all the powder and cream,
Yet that is no life for the soulful dreamer,
you'll find yourself alone down there.

Deep down I am crying, and falling apart
Deep down a broken mind, a winter's heart
Yet the colors of life surely could free
In this insane world, an ugly girl like me.
