Soul


Soul
May 27th-May 28th, 2006
Something more serious. :)

I hold my feelings deep down inside…
I don’t know how to show how much I care
So I write these things down on paper.
I get so emotional over
So many different things.
Sometimes, I take jokes
Way too seriously.
Other times, I let my moods
Control how I treat a human being.

My soul is on fire
But my heart is in pain.
Your words cut me so deeply,
And I’m still scrambling
To find myself again.

I’ve fallen in love so many times
And fallen down so many times.
You see the problem is I…
Didn’t know how to tell you.
Didn’t know how to explain to you
That I was so into you.
So instead I wrote a dozen songs about you
And waited for you to knock on my front door.
And, you never came…

My soul is on fire,
But my heart is in pain.
Your actions hurt me so bad,
That I don’t know
If I can love again.

I feel like I’m just crawling along the desert,
Waiting for an angel to pick me up and save me.
I feel like I’m the only one left
Who cares about the world anymore.

My soul is on fire
But my heart is in pain.
You words cut me so deeply,
And I’m still scrambling
To find myself again.


My soul is on fire,
But my heart is in pain.
Your actions hurt me so bad,
That I don’t know
If I can love again.

My heart, my heart, doesn’t beat anymore.
Save me, save me, save, from the pain…

This one is great! :)

4 years and 3 months
Of working in the same organization.
I know I have scars for every time
I got whipped by you.
I got my ass back in gear
And put on the best product I could have.
I put on my tie,
Brushed my teeth every morning,
And socialized with my entire team.
But, that wasn’t enough to save me.

Even after everything I’ve contributed,
I still couldn’t hold onto my position.
The once strong company I worked for
Is now being mis-managed by egotistical men
Who care more about their salary
Than they do their own employers’ happiness.
Now, that I’ve made my final exit,
I know this company will eventually implode.

At one time, I admit I was a fool.
I stirred up controversy
And acted in many inappropriate ways.
But as the last two years progressed,
I cleaned up my act
And showed you what I was made of.
I put on my tie,
I brushed my teeth every morning
And I socialized with my entire team.
But, even that couldn’t save me.

Even after everything we’ve been through,
You still had one bullet left in your gun.
Despite everything I’ve sought to improve,
I’m just another document that has to be shredded.
All of our supervisors…
Take the money we make
And keep it in their dam pocket,
It’s so unfair…

Everyone gets laid off
At some point or another.
But, it’s up to me
To save my friends from
This arrogant organization.

Night-Crawlers


Night-Crawlers
February 6th, 2006-February 12th, 2006
This one is a bit odd, 
but I had to get this off my chest lol. 

Today’s society makes me laugh.
They make a big fuss about homosexuality
On the television screen.
Yet, they make no fuss about all
The violence and people dying on
All the video games our children are playing.

Society is just one big double-edged contradiction
Just waiting to find its’ prey.
It waits in the shadows
Before it reaches out to grab its’ victim
And feast on its’ meat.

Today’s society makes me sick.
They sit here and call a man a stud
If he has a lot of sexual partners
But calls a woman a ‘slut’ or ‘whore
If she has a lot of sex.
Women haven’t gotten the proper respect
For centuries now,
And I say it’s time for a change
Once and for all.

Society is just one big, double-edged contradiction,
Just waiting to find its’ prey.
It just waits in the shadows
To find innocent victims to feed on.

The Night-Crawlers
Live on the dark places of the earth.
The Night-Crawlers
Go hunting for the innocent like us.
We didn’t do anything to deserve this,
It goes from a welcome hand-shake
To a very un-welcome french kiss.
The night-crawlers take the joy away
From everything…

We are the victims
And we have to fight back.
We have to rise up
Against the organizations
That supposedly make us feel safe.
We must free ourselves from the burdens
That limit our potential for productivity.
We are not test subjects,
We are not knobs you can turn,
We are human beings!

Human beings who wants to reach the promised land
Of love, growth, respect and fame.
These authority figures,
A.K.A. slaves of society’s old system,
Are out-dated, tireless and dangerous.
They are just machines,
Who don’t give us youths a chance.

We need to protest, start a fire
And demand our freedom & respect back.
Because we are human beings
And we possess the answers to the future.

Markus Asraelius


Markus Asraelius
January 20th, 2007
This was a name given to me in High School. :)
It's purposely mis-spelled. 

I know how great I am
And how much better I could be.
I’ve got a sexy body
With the most beautiful blue eyes.
I’m an incredibly complex being
With an I.Q. of 138.
I have a craving for intellectualism
And I despise narrow-minded people.
And, most of all I have a big heart,
That runs deep in most of my decisions.

Chorus:
My heart is what separates me from most
And my mind is what puts me above the rest.
I know how great I am
And I’ll decide how much better I’ll be.
I have finally realized my true potential
And now, no one is going to stop me.

I won’t look down on myself
When I think about my circumstances.
I won’t live in fear and
Let it control everything I do.
I won’t let the hate preserve
And allow it come between our relationship again.
I won’t stop to take a break
Because there’s just too much to do today.

Chorus

Bridge
Oh when I go into work,
They can always count on me
To get the job done on time.
I always show up and
Work my ass off
Until the task is complete
And or until my hands are bleeding.

My heart is what separates me from most
But my mind is what puts me ahead of the best.
Finally, I know how great I am
And how far I will go.
I have finally realized my true potential
And now, no one can stop me.

I am great, I am powerful.
I am complex, I am driven.

But, most of all,
I’m Markus Asraelius.
