Supply and Demand

Every day, it’s the same
Filling all, all your needs
All your greed, An endless tide
Relentless, control
A guard I was, a shield for you
Ignored by all, destroyed by you
Can’t you see, see me too?
Use me today, will I get by?
So we cry, don’t know why
We feel empty inside
As we strive, toward high skies
Nothing left to hide
Why should you care for me?
You can go somewhere else
Your burden to me is my burden to you
I show you what I see
Careful wish you seem to have
Reality can’t be ignored
Now you see, see me too
Use me tomorrow, now why so shy?
Your demand, too much to bear
You demand all you see
I’ve supplied you all this time
Now it’s time that you feel what I feel
So we cry, don’t know why
We feel empty inside
As we strive, toward high skies
Nothing left to revive, consumed

Plague

It takes you in
A strand of you
A jagged form
Into spirit and bone
Breaking light
Into this dark night
As rain comes down
I take Flight
Divided
Passed on down
Shock me
Shock me
Show me
Consume all in sight
And it spits it out
From one to thee
The toxic trace
Of the human race
From you to me
Frightful sight
Painted as such
As we rise
Above ourselves
In our minds
A story that's been told
Fractured life
Entropy ensues
A Promised future
Bliss and sight is shut
Nothing real, all lies
It comes from you!
Great light we need you
You have the plan
Light our future
We’ll take the steps
We must
Please, we need time
We will merge, as you’ve shown us
Is it too late?
We’ve shown we take too long to change
A hopeful dream
For all Our kin
Now hear this sin!
You have plagued us all
I have seen it come
From you to me

I’ve heard them told
Songs from the land of old
Left me alone
The shore will take me home
Left me this waste
Goodbye, I say farewell
We dreamed, we thought, we could change
A lie we told ourselves
Now though, I am, left remains
All run down, in our haste
No surprise, I suppose
Although it may seem we tried in the end
A noble deed?
Just a little too late
Where was I?
I tried to abscond
To hide out, among those the same
Was it right?
I thought: what could I do?
Just one was
Maybe all it took
I now know why I feel so empty inside
Why did I not try
Doing what I could
One would have been a start
Now I say goodbye
Now I say goodbye
