Unanswered Question
I am awake but cannot see
nor am I sure that I can hear.
A silent darkness surrounds me,
I know the meaning now of fear.
It is as if I’m paralysed
I try to move without success.
My deepest fears are realised
I am controlled and powerless.
I am not dead I cannot be
If I were dead I’d be at peace.
I wonder is this purgatory?
What must I do to earn release?
I’m lying on a slab of stone,
there are no shackles binding me.
I am held fast by powers unknown.
I try to think coherently.
Why am I here and where am I.
I cannot hear I cannot see
I cannot move although I try.
Am I condemned eternally?
What grievous sin did I commit?
deserving endless punishment.
I may have sinned I must admit
unknowingly without intent.
I pray to all the Gods I know
to have my harsh sentence repealed.
To set me free just let me go.
Implacable they will not yield,
Refuse to alter their decree.
I may not live; I may not die
I must exist in misery
and never know the reason why.

All Soul's Day
They throng the tombs of near and dear,
To pray for souls in Purgatory;
They offer masses, light candles,
And place flowers on cemetery.
They visit tombs of orphans, friends,
And hear Requiem masses this day;
They give alms, singing hymns for dead,
Pleading for God's mercy and pray.
No soul is sinless on dying;
The soul must be freed off all sins;
The venial sins forgotten need
To be dumped in Purgatory's bins!
We ought to pray for all the dead,
Our kith and kin and strangers too;
The dead cannot do more penance,
And earn the grace of God on own!
November is the month to pray
To God to grant eternal rest,
For all awaiting Judgment's Day,
And help them pass the final Test!
Let light perpetual shine on souls
In Purgatory, where they are cleansed;
Pardon them Lord and release them;
Permit them to enter Heaven!

No more fear
No more fear of survival refuse to live in fear of myself any longer.
No more fear of never being respected or acknowledged by you for who I am.
I will not sarcoma to my fears any longer for I am stronger then I ever dreamed and I will no longer allow my fears to hold me in limbo.
No more screaming in silence or crying with no tears for the end of my silence is here.
No more putting myself through torture for I am ready to heal, my new growth is all around me and I am unsure of what I fear.
No more fear of not being loved for the people who loves themselves has any fear.
No more fear of the unknown for my eyes are wide open and the sky is very clear.
I will only place God Before me for I only exist with him and only he can set me free.
I had fear of being alone, then fear of what could be but I long to face the fears and it does not control me.
No more empty feelings for I know just where to go I will get on my knees, and ask God to bless my soul and take the fear away from me.
No more will I not be heard, if I need to yell or scream it I will say it the way I want but until I am treated right have a voice and I will not have fear of being heard.
No more will I not stand up for me or fear of what was meant to be, no more if being mislead, lost or even feel like I should be dead.
No more of this silly game will I play I love me and maybe you should do the same, I am that woman who has held a family together, who has made you only exit in my world and now no more.

Catching Fire
Glowing embers, remnants of a world past.
Life is dying, its energy expiring fast.
The last hope for life to survive is fading out and we're stuck drowning in a sea of doubt!
-
Burnt out timber, shadows of what use to be.
Lord God! Start a fire inside me!
So many are burnout, no fire left, to our flaking ashes we cleft.
-
Someone needs to ignite the fire, bring us back to life!
Keep us alive, don't let the darkness suffocate the light:
So many of us, burnt-out, dead, and alone, We need fire in the bones!
-
We're sitting here, waiting for someone to catch fire-dying-
Sitting here warming benches, not even trying.
By our lack of faith, we condemn ourselves to die!
-
Waiting for God to move, but God has already done so.
While we're stalling, he's calling us to go!
But we're waiting for fire, that's already here, but we won't commit because of our fear.
-
Haunted by a fear of the unknown, that we can't survive.
We sit and kill, the very life we're trying to revive.
Waiting for someone else to move, with the blame on our heads, we refuse to push ahead.
-
If you don't move, and he besides you doesn't move,
Who's going to keep the fire, that runs this world, tell me who?
So I'm catching fire, hoping others catch fire with me: catching fire to set men free, are you with me?

Today's the Day
Perhaps today's the day that I break free
Free from the hustle that comes each day
Free from distractions that lead me astray
Perhaps I can be what I'm made to be
Perhaps today's the day I'll choose to move
Move beyond the past into tomorrow
Move with purpose in the way I should go
Perhaps I'll believe I've nothing to prove
Perhaps today's the day I'll find my peace
Peace like a stream flowing fresh to my soul
Peace that brings new meaning and makes me whole
Perhaps that assurance will never cease
Perhaps today's the day I'll hear Your voice
So clearly that my heart will have no choice
If today's the day I'm finally free
May I be free to run and tell the world
With Your banner of love proudly unfurled
For today's the day You have set me free
If today's the day I finally move
May I move boldly toward holy life
Allowing You to guide me through the strife
As I dance for joy for You've made me move
And, if today's the day I find Your peace
May I promote that peace to all I meet
Living in peace and loving those I greet
As I gratefully give others Your peace
If today's the day I will hear Your voice
May I know it and may my heart rejoice

Brain Dead
Turn me off
Pull the plug
Leave me with some dignity
I am not
What I was
And I dont need the sympathy
Alive inside me
No one can hear me
Brain dead
Im not
Brain dead
Sentenced
Forgot
Paralysed
In my shell
Enduring every
Endless day
Immobilized
On my back
Aware of everything
They say
Extricate me
Eliminate me
Brain dead
Im not
Brain dead
Drip fed
Forgot
I cant blink my eye or cry
Or even speak
They crowd around my bed
Condescending words are said
Thinking I dont hear or know
What is going on - hello!
Cant you suckers hear my cries
From inside Im still alive
Its my decision to abort
Turn off the goddamn life support
Let me pass
From this world
So I fade away in peace
Comprehending
Unrelenting
Brain dead
Im not
Brain dead
Sentenced
Forgot
Brain dead
Im not
Brain dead
Drip fed
Forgot

Little Altar Boy
Little alter boy, I wonder could you pray for me?
Little alter boy, for I have gone astray
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy ,oh, let me hear you pray
Little alter boy, I wonder could you ask your lord
Ask him, alter boy, to take my sins away
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray
Lift up your voice and send a pray above
Help me rejoice and fill that prayer with love
Now I know my life has been all wrong
Lift my your voice and help a sinner be strong
Little alter boy, I wonder could you pry for me?
Could you tell our lord Im gonna change my ways today?
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray
Little alter boy please let me hear you pray!

The Butterfly Fx
When I move
You move with me
I feed off you
You feast on me
And what I see
You can not see
That when I move
You move with me
Where's this small
dead hand that creeps me
I am biting it to its very bone
Collapsing with everything new on me
until it gets so very old
And what I see
You can not see
That when I move
You move with me
There is this third body
spinning fast
reducing me
into a relapse
with its crippled flaps
slow motion dims
sweetly parasited
by butterfly wings
And what I see
You can not see
That when I move
You move with me
All that is old is new again
(To be) each other spies
we're condemned
Everything is everywhere
The butterfly effect
And what I see
You can not see
I will have to kill you
Before you kill me
Everything is everywhere
The butterfly effect

Shackles Of Fear
Shackle bounded
Bounded by shackles
Shackles of fear
They confine these hands
Shackles of fear
They bind these feet
Bound by shackles of fear
My mind is overdosed
My heart it beats slow
My eyes are wide shut
Lord God please
Release these shackles that hold me in captivity
Lord God please
Break these shackles that hinder me
Please God don't let my fear be the end of this journey
I'm shackle bounded
Bounded by shackles of fear
And I fear the release of my bounded shackles
These shackles they hinder me

Dream Of The Unknown
I dream of mostly nothing,
A deep black emptiness in space of infinate time.
But there is no time, there is nothing.
I see nothing, I touch nothing.
Am I even here? Do I exist? Where am I?
I'm not anywhere, just darkness all around.
I don't hear anything at all. I don't smell anything.
What kind of dream is this? This dream of the unknown.
It is not a dream. I'm not here, I am nothing.
Dreams are filled with things beyond imagination,
Filled with good things and bad things, but not this.
I am not happy nor am I sad...But I am scared.
Why am I scared? There is nothing here.
I am trembling but I don't feel a thing.
I'm not here, I am nothing just like this darkness.
But I am in fear in this dream of the unknown.
If it's a dream at all. Am I dead? Is that my fear?
If I'm dead, where is the afterlife? Were they right?
I see nothing, I feel nothing, I am nothing.
Fear is the only thing I know in this dream.
But why? If nothing is wrong, why is everything dark?
Why can't I dream? Why am I nothing with nothing around?
No time, no feeling, no sense. Just nothing.
Lost in this forsaken world, this dream of the unknown.
Suddenly, I'm crying. I feel tears stream down my face.
I feel my heart racing. I hear myself choke back cries.
But everything is still dark, everything is still nothing.
I don't understand. What is happening to me?
My eyes open, I'm in my bed. Face buried in my pillow.
I am still crying, I am still scared...I don't know why.

Its That Fear
It's that fear
Ooo very scary! !
I bet you don't know it
Keeps you worried
It's that fear...
Very loud in your ear..
But not everyone could hear
It's that fear
Why? Y u even here
Leaving people in tears..
It's that fear
Born and raised
Can be of denial
Struggles, family or revival
It's that fear
That keeps consuming..
Consuming us in out! !
Eating us away...
It's that fear
The fear we hate
Come to us in pace
In life circumstance
It's that fear
Can anyone hear?
Like a monster or dear?
I wish it was fair..
it's that fear
Some say never fear
But in the back they tear
Overwhelmed can't even dare
Trying to overcome the fear..
It's that fear
The fear which keep us
Us alive and awake
Awake from unexpected
Awake to fight against
It's that fear
I want all to hear..
You and me here..
We need to chase Mr. Fear
We could make it
Make this a better world
Without the fear
The fear of loss
The fear of famine
The fear of war
The fear of poverty
The fear of religion
The fear of recognition
Why are we in fear...?
Can't it be there not here..
It's time to chase him out there
Leaving us in peace in here
It's that fear
The fear which is not only mine
It's that fear for all
The fear we both hear
Hear from different angles
Hear in different times
We all just don't want him here...
The fear we both imagine
An illusion body..
Could affect your goals
Never entertain that fear.
Am I Still Me?
I am not dead though I should be
There’s very little left of me.
I do not live merely exist
My mind is clouded the mist persists
I can’t remember anything
Although I try there is nothing
I don’t know where I am or why
I wonder sometimes who am I
Then the mists descend again
I don’t know where I am or when.
My body lives my mind has fled.
Dementia which I used to dread.
Has destroyed my ability
To think at all coherently
I am not happy nor am I sad.
I would not know if I was glad.
I should be dead but I am not.
The art of living I forgot.
The mists do lift occasionally
And I remember I am me.
Although my body is quite fit
Without my mind what use is it?
Am still me or just a shell
condemned to a living hell.
Am I still me?
I am not dead though I should be
There’s very little left of me.
I do not live merely exist
My mind is clouded the mist persists
I can’t remember anything
Although I try there is nothing
I don’t know where I am or why
I wonder sometimes who am I
Then the mists descend again
I don’t know where I am or when.
My body lives my mind has fled.
Dementia which I used to dread.
Has destroyed my ability
To think at all coherently
I am not happy nor am I sad.
I would not know if I was glad.
I should be dead but I am not.
The art of living I forgot.
The mists do lift occasionally
And I remember I am me.
Although my body is quite fit
Without my mind what use is it?
Am still me or just a shell
condemned to a living hell.

Pray
So here we stand again
Like dust on mother earth
And we hide our faces in our dreams
Only emptiness where angels flew - high on golden wings
And the voice of god has vanished now - lost inside our dreams
But the only way to go is heaven
All we can do is pray
In the darkness we stand with the world in our hands
And we pray
For a better tomorrow
We wait
Far beyond the horizon
There's a sound in the sky
The voice of glory I hear a silent cry
When the heroes of yesterday are gone
All we can do is pray
In the darkness we hide and we wait for the light
And we pray
Oh we pray
Let us pray
I've seen the darkside of the moon in my dreams
Now I know it ain't a place to live for us all
All our gods creation is dead an gone
Now we stand like children all alone forever
All we can do is pray
Forever and forever and forever more
For a better tomorrow - we wait
Pray
There's a light in the dark
And it's shining so bright on our way
Still there is hope on our way
And we pray
Oh

As ye sow so shall ye reap
Tenebrous shadows congregate
and murmur surreptitiously.
About the vagaries of fate
and who or what they used to be.
Once powerful now powerless.
They complain interminably
but to the world have no access.
No power on earth can set them free.
They are condemned for their past sins
and all must serve their sentence out
But then of course new life begins
another chance of finding out.
Where they went wrong, try to amend
for hurts they caused deliberately.
Impossible now to pretend.
They see with renewed clarity.
That as you sow so shall you reap.
This simple law can’t be repealed.
That’s why the shadows wail and weep
because their sins lie unconcealed.
Each act recorded faithfully
there is no way that you can lie.
Although you acted furtively
you can’t escape the watchful eye.
Of your own deep subconscious mind
Recording what you did and why.
A monitor that’s well designed
to bring to light what you deny.
Yours is the only evidence
that karmic law will listen to.
No one can speak in your defence.
The faults are clearly down to you.
You are the jury and the judge
and you impose your own sentence.
No legal niceties to fudge
and no pretended penitence.
You join the other shadows who
wait in the dark impatiently.
To be reborn as someone new.
Your role selected carefully.
To give the opportunity
to undertake the tests again.
The tests you failed so miserably
by causing other people pain.
You’ll suffer as you caused them to
Their agonies will be redressed
your wickedness rebounds on you
Until the lesson is impressed.
If you succeed you can move on
It is entirely up to you.
Each life can teach a new lesson
as each life is intended to.
No one’s condemned eternally
you always get another chance.
Some learn their lessons easily
according to their circumstance.
But others find it very hard
and fail the test repeatedly.
A life of misery their reward
but they will learn eventually.
That what you give is what you get.
The scales must balance perfectly.
All other laws you can forget.
All men are treated equally

We Need Fear For Survival
Of valour on the battlefield and in other ways we hear
But only the most foolhardy one would never know of fear
We need fear for survival may they rest in peace the brave
Their reward for their bravery the cold and darkness of the grave.
We need fear for survival the very brave are dead
And little use to them 'twould seem if good things of them are said
We need a bit of fear in us in order to stay alive
Few of the brave to a ripe old age have been known to survive.
I'd rather live to a ripe old age than have died young and brave
We need a bit of fear in us for to keep cheating the grave
Why would you even wish to die though your better days are long gone
Our will to live is always strong and it keeps us keeping on.
The fear of death is a healthy fear the brave seem to die young
Though of no use to the deceased if their praises are sung
In their graves they do never hear the bugler for them play
They lay in peace forever more that's life as some might say.

Face Ghost
You got it bad
You got it good
You saw the sun
Like I knew that you would
We gotta make this better
Gotta make this right
Aint no peace in the valley baby
til the darkness turns to light
Can you hear that childrens song?
Can you take me to that place?
High above the lamentation up on the desert plane
Do you hear that childrens song?
Can you take me there?
Lost in the maya
Overboard in the sea
There was void and then that water broke
Then something called me
Now a trip to the desert to look at the sky
Its like never-ending mirrors
Playin tricks on my eyes
Can you hear that childrens song?
Can you take me to that place?
High above the lamentation up on the desert plane
Do you hear the childrens song?
Can you take me there?
The face and ghost my guide
I must move on
Its the face of one ravaged by love
Its both dead and alive
You got it bad lover
No you got it good
You saw the sun
Like I knew that you would
In spite of my confusion
Up above all my pain
I gotta death-grip on this vision
Here we go again
The face and ghost my guide
I must move on
Its the face of one ravaged by love
Its both dead and alive
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Can you hear them singin?
Can you hear them singin?
Can you hear that childrens song?
Can you take me to that place?
Do you hear that pilgrims song?
Can you take me there?

Move Over
Dont want to surrender anymore to the likes
Of you,
Dont want a pretender to show me what
To do.
No degree of immunity,
Gonna give you freedom guaranteed.
But it aint no joke
When there aint no hope.
Theres no political system gonna satisfy me.
Chorus
Move over.
Cant you hear what I say,
Move over,
Move over.
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Move over,
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No man made laws,
No government rule,
Broad concepts are makin fools of us all,
Answer to yourself,
And let nobody else
Stop you doing what you wanna do.
Chorus
Move over,
Cant you hear what I say.
Move over,
Move over.
Now weve tried it your way.
Move over.
Dont want to remember people as they used
To be,
Just want to see changes,
Whatever is fine by me.
Is all that money gonna free you from sin.
Is all that virtue gonna save your skin.
When the going gets rough,
Therell be no turning back.
Then what of your gold and your shammy
Seat backs.
Chorus
Move over,
Cant you hear what I say.
Move over,
Move over.
Now weve tried it your way.
Move over.
Yeah, yeah.
Move over.
Repeat
