Pledge your allegiance to the noise
Hand on chest may annoy
Beaten finely to a pulse
Truth be told and not false.

Keep your time and be strict
Practice until you have it licked
Hit them where it hurts
Send them all off in a hearse.

Never stop what you do
Every day this is for you
Hands give blood until numb
For this is why we all best the drum.

Everything is intrinsically linked.

Me to you,
Life to death,
Time to space,
Breathe to out.

Gone.

But always there,
Always together.

You had no choice
But to leave me
You walked away
And gone was the day.

They say you're in a better place
But I'm not so sure
Gone far too soon
I'm left like a ruin.

Thou shall be missed
Never forgotten
Alive not dead
In my heart, body and head.

Hypnotized by you
Can't look away
Caught in your light
A full on sight.

Standing tall
Once in a year
Middle of your night
Forget the day's plight.

Hung to the brim
Topped with purity
Glowing ****** white
Giving you your respite.

You've been here a while
Running against that wheel
Motivation is draining
Tired of training.

Gone around that track
More than a few times
But inside you still burn
Make a push to turn.

Hit that concrete
Hit that wall
Break on through
To the other you.

A never-ending race
Don't blame your race
Surf over the tide
For one last ride.

Oh Lord
What a dilemma
Two slices of death
Filled full of false charm.

Swallow it down
Best not to taste
Hold your nose
And bite your tongue.

Free to the masses
Payable by shame
Soured so sweet
The last thing you'll want to eat.

Dishonor before death
Crazy for life
Hell will be to pay
Heaven to slay.

Last man standing
Leave your hand in
Raise your glass
Still kicking ***.

Ride like the wind
Shoot the breeze
Lie for your sins
Ace of spades wins.
