See this earth is a nest
And Im that little bird
Who mother pushed outside before he learned to fly... word
See Im that in training angel
That god sends back to earth to earn my wings stripes and halo
The stairway to heaven is a treacherous staircase
Lined with banana peels
And oil slicks to help determine mans fate
The target
A somewhat lethargic artist
A walking carcass caught up in life′s dishonest market
In darkness Im the light to follow
To stop him from drowning in self pity pools of which he now wallows
See his physical shell hollow from the sorrow
Bearing little resemblance to the divine being after that which he is modeled
Jigsaw puzzle soul
With missing pieces sold
To the highest bidder, to make him a little bit more bitter and cold
He wears an ice grill
Hot headed his blood boils
See he's fright filled
My plan to save this soul with love foiled
Amazing not for shaving but his razor blade slits wrist
Blood drips in tub trickles quick soul corrupted swift
His fist grips a note
Soaked in red blood lines
And only two words he wrote
"Im sorry" double underlined
I study this a billion times over
And only conclusion it brings
Is that I′ll never earn my wings
See I succeeded in one thing, but that was failing
I let that ship sink while looking for smooth sailing

Silence broken
Angel wings
Violence choked in halo rings
Beauty, harps
Pearly gates
Use the heart for worldly fates
Lights, clouds
Rainbows for miles
White shrouds
Strange glows and smiles
Endless hopes
Infinite dreams
Cherished folks
Intricate schemes

Mortality, emotions
Confusion, hurt
Family, devotion
Pollution, work
Sickness, hate and
Foes and friends
Cynics, mates and
Token trends
Temptation, taxes
Schools and children
Hesitation, marriage
Fools, religion
Decisions in life
Infinite dreams
Visions of strife
Intricate schemes

Silence broken
Pitchforks, horns
Violence cloaked in sin and more scorn
Pain, hurt
Bleeding, death is near
Same search
Feeding on stress and fear
Fire, brimstone
Inferno, heat
Desire, grim moans
Eternal sleep
Endless sins
Infinite screams
Devilish grins
Intricate schemes

Awaken to sound of the flame crackle
And see the same souls trapped in the same chains and shackles
Conceal my horns, take human form, grab my pitchfork
Another morn of the norm, my daily grind of sick thoughts
My target, a somewhat optimistic artist
I'll leave his soul tarnished by earths chaos and carnage
Commence darkness and cold
Before he sees the light
Early demon gets the soul
Words to live by. right?
I have greed, lust, sloth and 4 other loyal sins on my side
Very often good and evil collide
And when that happens, fact of the matter its dagger in the back of bliss
And Im that demonic form that'll grab that dagger and twist
Til bliss and sunlight shift
To anger and pain
Til happiness changed right quick
To mandarin flames
Money, death, chaos, war
And all the other beautiful things that us evil have in store
And in the same time an angel shows one soul the light
Ive drawn a million towards our eternal night
See who wins the fight? Flowers and bunny rabbits?
Or power, money, and bad habits?
Some say its tragic
See evils like history, it repeats itself
A cycle of misery, good meets defeat and melts
Wont hesitate to break you
When you′re stressed and frail
My fate, to celebrate my great success
As you fail
