The Looking Glass

Inevitable predictions of space and time
A dream of the nightmare to follow
Realizing the serge of pain in my mind
Knowing one less exists on my planet sorrow.

Dreaming around the witching hour, half past
Floating thru darkness on a road once there
Reaching below me something just within my grasp
Above all control is lost no pain to bare.

(pre-chorus)

Waking- Bad dreams haunt my brain
Reality- Premonitions remain
Knowing- Death has taken his victim
Finding- Out- the future is grim.

(chorus)

Observe verity unfold in front of my eyes
Unable to stop this madness
Aware while watching my loved ones die
The all seeing eye in the looking glass.

A woman lies on her death bed weak from disease
Her man by her side while she sleeps
He whispers softly, "Don't leave me, please."
She gives up the ghost while he weeps.

Envision riding man and predicting his fate
Discovering later of his brutal homicide
Tried to warn him, but now it's too late
Now he rides clouds on his Harley in the sky.

(repeat pre-chorus)

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)

The power of knowing in advance what's to be
Has been bestowed upon only me
No way to stop it knowing they are going to die
Words I know quite well, here they lie
Growing feelings of darkness on the rise
Clairvoyant predictions of their demise
Dreaming death emotional scars run deep
The salt shifts through while I sleep.

(chorus #2)

The all seeing eye in the looking glass
That's what I am and always will be
The all seeing eye in the looking glass
Look into the future death is all I see.

No need for a crystal ball when you're the all seeing eye in the looking glass.

My Dreams

My Dreams

My dreams are filled with life and death
Haunting my waking moments are my dreams
My dreams consist of the very last breath.

Dreams include the right and known wrongs
My dreams emphasize nothing in the world
Dreams living in the certain land of the gone.

Vast wastelands inherit my darkest dreams
My dreams plight the good versus evil
Dreams enforce and bring up my screams.

My dreams score your fleeting moments
Color backgrounds and incredible motive
Reconciled differences dreams a God send?

My dreams, dark, lonely and desperately uncertain
Days become nights, nights become days
Draw my breath waiting for the final curtain.

Dreams yield to the most inner thoughts
My dreams hold pain and confusion
Coming of age in the mind drought.

My dreams enter into outer realms of wisdom
Seeing the independent truth for itself
The future of life may depend on what may come.

Dreams are mirrors of your inner core
Soul enlightening eyes to become one
Fulfilled from emptiness no more.

My dreams predict death and destruction
Un-welcomed night dwellers from within
A precedent of what to be or instruction.

Are my dreams destroying me?
Will I ever be free?
How do I know when I have the key?
To unlock the dreamscape and finally see.

Looking Glass

Looking Glass

Space and time means absolutely nothing
As we soar high to nonexistence
Seeing paranoid with the sight
A fantastic future to behold
Watch from elsewhere as it unfolds.

Dreams and nightmares run alike
Plague me in sleep and wake
Clairvoyance bestowed upon only me
What happens next?
Misplaced diabolical hex.

Nothing seems real in this make believe world
Death knocking at the doors
Awake, yet starving to death
Mental breakdown and relief
Staring in disbelief.

The future can be terribly cruel
Inescapable and unfortunately plain
Black and white with no gray
From far behind take a look
And that's all it took.

Looking glass today for morrow
Fleeing the pain and sorrow
Looking inside, seeing the horror
Can't take it, time to borrow
One look in the glass, reap what you sew.

Dreamscape lighting into unknown reality
I drift to and fro
When I wake in a sweat
No escape, no turning time back
Sordid game a safe to crack.

Looking glass takes no prisoners
Sleeps awakened from my fears
Cannot stop the uncontrollable tears
Etched in my mind totally rendered
One look in the looking glass, the end is near.

Deja Vu

Deja' Vu
Copyright - 2/1/96

Seeing what I've seen before
Knowing the future in the past
Finding out life's inconsistencies
Little and somewhat disapproving
If everything should end tomorrow
Chaos would rule the earth
I'd know, Deja' Vu.

When spring lands the summer
And birds sing freely in trees
Certain demise awaits the darkness
Larger than this sordid life
If life died and left nothing
The world would be ever so empty
I'd know, Deja' Vu.

The future awakens my dreams
Clairvoyance comes in streams
Fall turns into winter and I see
Larger than anyone could know
If it all was to cease
We'd be left alone with nothing
I'd know, Deja' Vu.

Dank predictions of what's to be
Falling softly into the abyss
Death rounds every corner
As snow drifts silently down
If man ceased to exist
I'd be cold and empty
I'd know, Deja' Vu.

Predictions. Fate. Time.
No reason or rhyme
Destruction. Life. Death.
Taking the last breath.
