Through the Fire and the Flames
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In the flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
And the darkness is falling down and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight.
.....
Fighting high, fighting on for the steel
Through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell that is wasted on the shores
.....
On the Blackest waves in history
We watch them as they go
Through the fire, pain and once again we know.
.....
So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls
.....
So far away we wait for the day
For the lights are so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
.....
As the red day is dawning
And lightning cracks the sky
They raise their hands to the heavens above
As we send them to their lies
Running back through the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from the time in the fallen land
To a light beyond the stars
.....
In the blackest dreams we do believe
Our destiny this time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight
.....
And on the wings of a dream
So far beyond reality
All alone in desperation
Now the time is gone
.....
Lost inside you'll never find
Lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on
.....
Now here we stand with blood on our hands
We've fought so hard, now can we understand?
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For the freedom of every man.

I just got bored. Wrote some stuff, but they didn't seem right.
I'll just post 1, or 2, for you taking your time just to look ere'.
Don't expect spectacular results.
You Are...
You are my Crimson Rose,
Whose petals have turned grey and cold.
You are my laughing spirit,
Who can't release it's hold.
You are my singing canary,
Who's as crazy as a loon.
You are my friendly smile,
Who's shrouded in the gloom.
You are my sparkling eyes,
Which have become blind.
You are my loving heart,
Who no longer knows the word 'Kind'.
You are my inner fire,
Who was washed away by the sea.
You are my everything,
... Who never really loved me.
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
That was the first.
This one is pretty short, compared to the next one I'll be giving.
I hope you'll enjoy it... if you wish.

A War Far Away
When will it stop?
When will I be able to,
Have a good night's sleep again?
A war is taking place,
Far away from here,
I do not fear the rockets,
For I know they can't hit me...
Yet I know they can hit my closest friends,
Who are living in the line of fire...
I know they can hit innocent people,
On both sides of the border,
And destroy lives in a mere instant...
.....
When will I be able to,
Have a good night's sleep again?
When will this nonsense stop?!
Everytime the phone rings,
My heart stops beating...
And I fear the worst.
Is this the call which will
Make me cry a river of tears?
Is this the call which will
Tear my heart apart?
Is one of my friends injured?!
Has one of my friends...
Ceased to exist?
This time it was a good call...
They're all okay...
... Will it be the same next time?!
..........
When will I stop having these nightmares?
When will I stop waking up in the middle of the night
With tears in my eyes,
Afraid that my nightmare might come true?
When will I stop watching the news on TV all the time,
Trying to get some information on what's going on...?
They say that justice will be done...
How will Justice be done when the one being Unjust...
Is the one who's supposed to enforce Justice as it is?!
How can Justice be done when the World
Is just sitting there, Watching, Waiting...
And not saying a word?!
..........
They all talk of Justice, Peace, Democracy...
If only it were true...
All they do is talk...
When they are supposed to actually DO something...
They're just too scared... Chickens... COWARDS!!!
Send ME! I'll go there! I'll save their lives!
Just give me the authority and power
I'll do it!
..........
Authority and Power... That's all this war is all about...
It's not about Justice nor Peace...
It's the Greed for more and more Power...
When will they open their eyes...?
When will the World make a move?
When will they do... ANYTHING AT ALL?!
WHEN ALL OF MY FRIENDS ARE DEAD?
WHEN CITIES ARE GONE,
WHEN MOUNTAINS ERODE?
WHEN?! PLEASE TELL ME!!
WHEN WILL THEY OPEN THEIR EYES?!
WHEN ALL THE CHILDREN ARE DEAD?
WHEN ALL THE BUILDINGS COLLAPSE?
WHEN THERE'S NOTHING,
AND NO ONE LEFT TO SAVE?!?
JUST TELL ME, WHEN?!
They think they are fighting Terrorism...
They think they are fighting for...
'The Greater Good of Mankind'...
I wish... I wish I could do anything...
Just ANYTHING, to help...
.........
Hang in there my dear friends,
On both sides of the border...
Please know in every right and soul...
You're always on my mind,
And in my heart....
*Ring* *Ring*
... ... Hello?
