Shattered Innocence

Shattered innocence and trust,
Are getting out of hand,
What makes someone take a life?
It's hard to understand,
It must begin in childhood,
Or simply lack there of,
Where stolen dreams,
Scar the mind,
Of those who just need love,
Revenge instead of healing,
Imitates a trend,
Irrational reactions,
Of those who did not mend,
Their history repeats itself,
The lessons never learned,
And so they're doomed,
And damned to a hell,
Of consequences earned,
So many injured parties,
Wandering about,
Secret torments held within,
Eventually break out,
To shatter innocence and trust,
Families and friends,
And viscious cirles spin around,
It seems, without an end,
Shattered innocence and tears,
Just fall upon the floor,
Where once, stood love's potential,
Is only found,
What for.

A Fine Line

It's a fine line,
Between sin and salvation,
A fine line,
Between temptation and will,
A fine line,
Between eternity and damnation,
And a fine line,
Between luck and skill,
It's a fine line,
Between faith and frustration,
A fine line,
Between savage and saint,
A fine line,
Between insanity and genius,
And a fine line,
Between love and hate,
It's a fine line,
Between have and have not,
A fine line,
Between hope and despair,
A fine line,
Between freedom and bondage,
And a fine line,
Between truth and a dare,
It's a fine line,
That wrinkles the forehead,
A fine line,
Carved deep your brow,
A fine line,
On the palm of your hand,
And a fine line
Between why and how,
It's a fine line,
Between questions and answers,
A fine line,
Everyone takes,
A fine line,
Straight and narrow,
Or a fine line,
Marked by mistakes,
It's a fine line
That draws the conclusions,
A fine line,
Between difference and spite,
A fine line,
That separates people,
A fine line,
Between wrong and right,
It's a fine line,
Between care and indifference,
A fine line,
Between wisdom and wit,
A fine line,
Between knowledge and ignorance,
And a fine line,
Between win and quit.

Wild Humans.

Wild humans on the loose,
Put each other in a noose,
No one seems to want a truce,
Wild humans on the loose,
Wild humans on the run,
Shoot each other with a gun,
No one knows what has begun,
Wild humans on the run.,
Wild humans, love and hate,
Always tempting death and fate,
No one knows how to relate,
Wild humans, love and hate,
Wild humans turned and tossed,
Hatred brings us such a cost,
No one wants a final frost,
Wild humans turned and tossed,
Wild humans on a course,
Of collision, unknown force,
Separation, then divorce,
Hatred ends, race in remorse,
Wild humans, CO2,
Sun too hot for me and you,
Wild humans, acid rain,
Tears of death, and future pain,
Wild humans, selfish lot,
Short on sight, time forgot,
Wild humans, profit blind,
Devils advocate, defined,
Wild humans, don't give in,
Don't give up before the win,
Wild humans live to sin,
Fact of life, when we begin,
Wild humans, getting late,
Yes it's hot, and death's the fate,
No one really knows the date,
Sun's a fish, and we're the bait,
Wild humans on the run,
Shoot each other with a gun,
Just our way of having fun,
While earth is baking in the sun,
Wild humans in a zoo,
Apprentice arsonists, and you,
Ozone layer wearing through,
And no one knows quite what to do,
Wild humans in this race,
With finish lines on every face,
Wave checkered flags of past disgrace,
As we all hope and pray for grace,
Wild humans getting sick,
And everyone is so afraid,
And no one knows quite what to do,
We're wild humans, me and you.

Tell Them They Can Shove It

They're trying to divide us,
Yeah, cut us in two,
They want you to hate me,
And me to hate you,
Well tell them they can shove it,
It's all up to you,
Think for yourself,
Go get a clue.

It's all about control,
And the money they make,
Squeezing everyone,
Always on the take,
Well tell them they can shove it
We all need a fair shake,
Don't go back to sleep,
You're barely awake.

Yeah tell them they can shove it,
Where the sun don't shine,
Tell them we're us,
Not me and mine,
Tell them we're the same,
You're not buyin that crap,
You're sick of these games,
And don't need their map.

They're trying to put you in a pigeon hole,
Convince you to be frightened
Of your own heart and soul,
But never mind these selfish greedy assholes,
Just tell them they can shove it,
You're taking control.
