False Hope (Song of Mead City)
So I find myself back right where I began Fallen behind all the others who ran Surrounded by places that are too familiar Ash-covered roads lined with broken mirrors
You can do anything that you dream At least that’s how they make it seem But I’m caught in Hell right when it gets hotter Stuck here in this forsaken backwater
Oh, what a wonderful world It’s just too bad I can’t see it Yes, ’tis a...
All I Want is to Watch People Succeed...
thisisnotjon:
Nowadays, it seems like unhappy endings are everywhere. People are losing their homes, going bankrupt, divorcing. It seems like everyday more and more people are losing hope, putting aside their dreams so that they can focus on surviving.
It makes one want to lose hope.
So when I see someone start a blog, or write a book, or start a band, it fills me with pride; To see them...

We're All Flawed
Look down your nose at me if you dare My will and words will lay you bare I defy those who tell me to stay hush You may have pull, but I have push Hittin’ it lucky can make you for life Then others are dogs who die in strife I’m straddling what’s in between Writing the song of souls unseen You stand atop a pedestal you built yourself A beautiful ogre, an impeccable fraud...

No Worries at All
The streetlights shine in the distance, a cloak of light Shielding the city from the darkness of outer plight Visible from valley and dale, meadow and hill A land of chaos but yet time stands still Beckoning for all to come from far and wide Losers and loners coming like waves on the tide Searching for solace in the comfort of the limits Not caring for the outside just as long as they ain’t...

Night of Living (Town of the Dead)
The day is dimming down as the Ohio night comes alive And the boys try to look as tough as the muscle cars they drive Together we speed the beat of the street pulse down to the market square Where girls with chill intentions await us with flowers in their hair The night becomes a blur as it all happens much too fast I hold onto each moment a little too long as it slips into the past I cry out a...
