Paradise is a little different this time, I role a pair of dice before I finally resign, My design was flawed so I closed it in & locked the door, Ain’t nothing behind these four walls that I haven’t seen before, So why are we at war? Told you to use the peaceful force, now isn’t that a metaphor that would get a higher score, English competition, just another competitor, let it form then let it morph, change is just another letter wouldn’t allow to get to her, now my whole sky’s a blur, barbed wire strike Burberry, fire strike strip the fur from these, despicable excuse of another sad mentality, Human beings they rattle me, Burn them all like cattle on the BBQ, Check the hue of the dreams that you pursue before you do decide to crew alongside something new, how can I prove what I conclude without a different view, maybe I could sue but what good would it really do? Picked
up the flute & blew, but all that happened was my house got flattened, Latin, Mayan, Greek, Aladdin, magic carpet, flying geek. Streak ahead in light years, seek a girl, found clear then flash, Sorry jack, not like that, she disappears, didn’t know you were looking & I’m not really ready, besides it wouldn’t be with you, lol, so get over it already, Silly teddy, hug & squeeze you tight until your head bleeds & you drown in a pool of your own blood with the rest of the people in this town bud, I collapse and hit the pavement, heavy heart, thud... Thinking, thinking, thunk, thought a little bit, wish I got my heart from hertz, yeah I wish my heart was rented, then I could return it, get it fixed from where they burned it. Undo the unrest; stitch together all the tears, but no-one ever dares to enter my epicentre, the flowers weren’t sent they were sentenced, cos once they entered the entrance, No one could offer them repentance, & now they’re dead as the winter is cold, as raindrops in hailstorms, just a part of the norm, what would you possibly want to be a part of it for? now it’s a quarter past four & we are still at war so I steal a bit of the future with a part of this steel claw & it grips and it tugs & we fight, Oh, how I love the freedom of bringing the dark arguments to light & I just might with all the might of an ant, blow up into a giant & show exactly where I stand, stealth bomber warrior universal skeleton agent, removes all the stains even if they ain’t faded, even if they play dead there’s no way this blade wont pierce the window, make sure your glass is bulletproof; make sure you stay indoors, Endorsements are for the weak & uninspired minds, now where does yours sit? I see you letting yours leak out, just be careful not to force it, as the floors slipped away from any grounding, memories bound me to the walls, Gravity switched, and now I’m rounding the equation to the nearest ten. This is the end, so thanks & here’s the pen I lent. Peace, love & respect... this is ThiNXx
