Deadly Visions
What is there to do when you see what everyone else ignores?
When they view the solid ground and you the eagle that soars
When there is just no answer left to find and they remain blind
To what lies behind your eyes that makes you strive to rewind
The terrible things you’ve seen by closing one eyelid at a time
Those millions of lost souls that dark sky hides oh so sublime
Many faces with no name that placed a bet but lost the game
But how dare you claim that they have themselves to blame?!
For it’s truly naïve to believe that death does not have a cause
To consider it as a mere pause or one of Mother Nature’s laws
When every human eye had his or her share of deadly visions
That unfortunately can lead to the most dangerous decisions
Rapid rush of placing those trembling fingers on rusty trigger
To make you get bigger or because you’re just a gold digger
No matter what your motives are: once you’ve gotten that far
There’s no turning back, you attack and survive an inner scar
Then you seek your next foe to crush with one effective blow
Although you know it’s wrong, you crave for the blood to flow
It’s the most addicting drug when all you really want is a hug
But you cannot give up; you need to squash them like a bug
And so you keep on going ‘till your hatred turns towards you
Your rage will pursue, you’ll view what you put others through
You’ll fly across that crimson sky and shed your bloody tears
Where my lost soul appears, consuming me and all my fears
