Dream

Audio: A Dream

A dream it would seem 



Even though awake 
I notice a theme 
reason we forsake 
the world a pipedream 
so many partake 


a dream 


Fantasy an outbreak 
thoughts are mainstream 
we admire the fake 
discouraged to blaspheme 
can’t silence the mistake 


a dream 


Even after daybreak 
beings supreme 
put lives at stake 
reason deemed 
ready for the wake 


a dream 


That comes with heartache 
makes me scream 
not for heaven’s sake 
but at the silliness stream 
storytellers make 


A dream it would seem

Everything

If you're in the mood, listen here: Everything

Yeah

Everything is a smile
everything a surprise
everything is a run
everything a walk
everything is a hug
everything is in a wink
everything is that moment
everything a meaning

You know

Nothing god wrote
answers any questions
nothing god says
makes any sense
nothing god wills
should be attempted
nothing god wants
should be given

Haha

Everything is a chirp
everything a bark
everything is a scent
everything a taste
everything is a sound
everything a note
everything is music
everything a symphony

And

Nothing has been created
by the hordes of gods
except human torture
and intolerance
nothing made by gods
that helps us survive
nothing is a mind
that clings to myth

Oh yeah

Everything is the wind
everything a breeze
everything is a raindrop
everything a storm
everything is a tsunami
everything a hurricane
that describes our loves
and our compassion

You know

Nothing god wrote
answers any questions
nothing god says
makes any sense
nothing god wills
should be attempted
nothing god wants
should be given

Well

Everything is the universe
everything is the world
everything is green and
everything is brown
everything is life
and everything is death
and everything is our lives
everything an experience

And

Nothing has been created
by the hordes of gods
except human torture
and intolerance
nothing made by gods
that helps us survive
nothing is a mind
that clings to myth

I'm an Atheist


For those who enjoy listening: I'm an Atheist.mp3

I'm a lover not a hater
I'm a savior that's not a faker
I'm a pusher 
for the future
and yes
I'm an atheist

I'm an anvil for morals
just begging for a hammering
I'm a creator 
not a destroyer
you know
I'm an atheist

I'm a feeler for all creatures
a champion for my cousins
a blasphemer
and an instigator
and damn right
I'm an atheist

I'm a shiver in your river
a wake in your lake
a caretaker
of the earth
and proudly
I'm an atheist

I'm a singer, I'm a writer
I'm a poet on a pulpit
a wordsmith 
lacking myth
talented and
Yes, I'm an atheist

I'm words without censors
I'm a changer getting bolder 
I'm the asker 
and the answer
and yes
I am an atheist

I'm like mace in the face
to the theist and his priest
no trouble
popping that bubble
because
I'm an atheist

I'm a blight on their fight
a drought on their thoughts
a brawler 
and a fighter
and damn right
I'm an atheist

You say its class warfare

You buy the government

You know it
You know it

You make war on the world

citing your fears
fraud
killing children

immoral
your money is stolen

and you move it out of the country
theft
profits from sweat houses
ugly
profits from child labor

You know it

We let you have control

we let you run our lives
why

It's about selfishness
and you

and you
it's about gluttony
and you
it's about you

time for you to be stripped
drawn
of control since you destroy
quartered
the earth that we need
tarred
the air water and food
feathered

You know it
You know it

The time is coming
quickly
you see the uprisings
everywhere
your time will soon be up
definitely
the people are speaking
finally
your rule is done
finally
you've destroyed the country
bastards
a society in servitude
slaves

You don't care
we know it
and you just suck
we know it

Time for you fucks to go

Dreams of War


Stop, look, listen; or read on. Video here.

"The broke can choke on garbage and swill
whatever is discarded when the rich have their fill
tea party says don't feed them or even cure them
a new game in town from conservative clowns
if hungry or sick let them die, die, die
if black or brown let them fry, fry, fry
the wealthy are hiding secure on their thrones
if I could get near them maybe they'd throw me a bone

I doubt it
I doubt it

It's called class warfare by the rich and their whores
it is class warfare if you're generationally poor
it is class warfare if wages disappear
show them the door show them the door

Conservatives cheer about killing our people
pricks don't care enough about the sick
they deserve the time a free life on your dime
the rest have no worth get them off of this earth
if you like the smell of rot in the air
if you like poison in your beer
if you have no compassion for your peers
you're definitely a tea party volunteer

you know it
oh yeah
you know it

It's called class warfare by the rich and their whores
it is class warfare if you're generationally poor
it is class warfare when wages disappear
show them the door show them the door

The middle is a riddle unions or work
not much of a choice people think they're jerks
wouldn't count on their charity or any help
barely living with the cards that have been dealt
If your out of a job republicans will help you
by cutting off aid aid aid that would feed you
and keeping health care that'd cure you
for the few who think we're nothing but fools

we are
we are

It's called class warfare by the rich and their whores
it is class warfare if you're generationally poor
it is class warfare when wages disappear
show them the door show them the door

It's called class warfare by the rich and their whores
it is class warfare if you're generationally poor
it is class warfare when wages disappear
show them the door show them the door"
