Alien Nous

Lately, walls are closing in
Knowledge is also power, in the hands of shabby teachers misguiding broken dreams
Compassion, as a mission, from the ruins of failed ideals
Never, ever let me change my ways
Déjà vu, déjà su my friend.
I know that I can rely on god as my ally to deceive and flip you over
But god is not a Man, believe it if you can
She’s a black woman, a doper
Never, ever let me change my ways
Smoking at the window, seals were flying sky high, on fire
Alien nous, I love you.
A heart for two, falls through.
Truth to be told, my future’s on hold...

Soulmate

Maybe some day I’ll find a soul mate
One that wouldn’t let me down,
But pretty soon it’ll be over
Then I’ll know how much I miss her.
Everyone knows that I’m feeling down
Every time I look and you’re not around.
Being your surrogate for medications?
A tedious job that doesn’t pay…
Pale faces in slow motion
Wild guesses in my array
When everyone’s out on the razz in town
They’d better watch out for the sappy clown
Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you smile.
It hurts to talk, it hurts to mingle
I’ve become the beast you keep at bay
Former lack of fornication
One night stands will lead you straight.
Everyone knows that I’m feeling down
Every time I look and you’re not around.
What we need is separation
There is nothing left to say
What about restitution?
I want it all back today.
When everyone’s out on the razz in town
They’d better watch out for the sappy clown.
Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you smile

Bad Day

Oh! How I miss the smell of a frivolous end to a fiery night
Heads pell-mell, you’d cringe, I’d laugh, Laugh it off and shiver.
Divesting me of a burdening shell, absentee, I taught you well
But you see, it still rankles I couldn’t teach you any better…
I’m not sure what’s most missed : The loving or the companionship?
Your candid eyes or the swing of your hip?
Both, beyond belief
Please let me tell the stories you need to hear
Because right now, it seems, I’ll have a bad day, all year.
Chained, balled up with a lot in mind,
I let you leave so much behind
And that journey home forebodes a welcoming squalor
But all that drivel needs a rest
Upon a beautiful tattooed breast,
I could reminisce all day or let you milk turn sour
Apply within for a tete a tete, God Damn!
I just want to masturbate, again, fine I’ll confess, I’m a sinner.
Please let me tell the stories you need to hear
Because right now, it seems, I’ll have a bad day, all year.

Hey buddy! How did we make it that far?
Deceit and lies along the way
Here comes winter, falling out of grace with you.
Hey buddy! Sometimes I’m scared alone at night.
Tamed? Withered? Or out of mind?
Did my temper get the best of me again?
I’ve been trying reaching out to you for so long
I’ve been trying holding on to you for so long now…
Hey mommy! I know you saw them taking turns,
At breaking me so watch me burn.
Karma? One hell of a loaded gun
Hey buddy! I know it’s hard to keep the pace
We yield, it’s true, we saved face.
Here comes winter, falling out of grace with you.

Sleeping in a trench, affordable circumstances
The bed linen reeks of cum stains, lies and creeps!
Sucker! Huh!
Help me up to let me down, to help me up to let me down…
Driving through the fields,a snippet as a shield
For insidious and dark amusement,
Savour pure entertainment.
Sucker! Huh...
Let me down, to help me up, to let me down…

Blue morning

Good morning headaches, you’re fucking with my head!
I wonder what it is this time?
Corpses smiling at the glint of their remains,
I’ve only got my teeth to grind.
Urghhhhhh
Hello morning light, I can see you through the drapes
I bet you know what’s on my mind.
Guess what? The evil eye is here with me again,
But now I’m smitten with your kind.

If you’re referring to previous audacity,
Let me assure you I’m not oblivious to serendipity.
Where do your treacherous eyes leave us? Upon the tree,
From which you look down to remind us
That I set you free.
Wait, wait, wait…You really got me all wrong…all along.
You may appear charming and courteous
But I, the public enemy,
Stumbled across what would feature so methodically
Such rice yet so malicious, but the joke’s on me.
Wait, wait, wait…You really got me all wrong…all along.
