We Are Suicide Kings

I've been obsessed with sex and I've been obsessed with danger
I've gone over to the dark side with women
I've sucked the life and put death into men
But what I don't believe I've done
is put my hand on the trigger of your gun.

I've kissed the hands of aristocrats and I've licked the lips of strangers
I've put my heart on a platter for a man, a woman and their daughter
I've sucked the wax off of a hot candle for a whore
I've kicked the gut in on an empty pathetic bore.
But what I have yet to do is sink deep into your mission.
What I have yet to do is commit this ultimate sin of treason.

I've broken up homes, and families, including mine.
I've broken up marriages and alliances with wine.
I've thrown away my honesty, and faith
To get closer to your truth
I've even drank your so called lemonade from the fountain of your youth

And though most days I believe you, in this war that you are wielding.
I know I'm fighting the fight for humanity dead and unyielding.

The end is near, the end is here
I'm going down with a fight
I'm gonna stomp the front lines
I've got my finger on the trigger
I've got my finger on the trigger
They won't be able to stop me
or hold me down tonight
I'm going down either way
I'm going down with a fight

This is not just edgy, this is not just racy
This is not just some political controvertiality
tempting racism, sexism, homophobia or fucking neutrality
This is the real shit and we're going down with a fight
This is the damnedest shit, cuz we believe in what is right.

This Girl

On the day that I leave
6 months from now
I will say to you
You saved me from insanity
For the last 8 months
You were my sunlight
The bright light at the end of the tunnel
You kept me sane in my darkest days
You were the sweetest moments peace of sacred love and being
A sacred temple in my heart

And on that bittersweet day in June
I swore to keep you safe from the ugliness of my heart
I swore to shelter you from the darkness of my world
The darkest part of my soul
My desperation and self harm
Aggression and anger
I swear to bear the grunt of this sad girl

And on this bittersweet day in June
I vow to feed you from the sweetest part of my heart
Smiles and gentle peaceful songs
For bearing the brunt of this sad girl
For tearing away the layers
Returning me to sweet innocence
Laughter joys of childhood
For sharing the flowers of this world

The Glorious Burn

I'm angry and they say it's the stress Something traumatic from the day I left there No it had nothing to do with the Years of snort...
