Blind Iris Rattlesnake Plain
Throughtout the years
He's spent his time
Looking for the price
Hidden inside
Found the cure
Pain divine
Put it on a page
Watch it change
Into a diary
Sad memoirs
Hidden in the book
Is lie
That took his heart
And tore it out
Rancor spins blades
Harvest day
Is long overdue
Alone on a plain
Mammoth clouds
Of blown hope
A new day fell
Expired before him
Got in his head
Where it rattled inside
Curled up like a snake
Frightened, angry and blind
He needs the blows
Insight is found
Circling around his head
Knocked to the ground
Real men get up
They don't back down
Undaunted by the challenge
He faces
Where do you go
When your running from yourself?
And you don't know the way
To change direction. It's cold
No fire. Outcome unknown
Do you ask yourself why
His luck started to change
The day he realized
He was caught in a web
Of his inner most secret
April 26, 1985
Brought this all on myself
Nobody made me
No matter how far I get
I've spent
Too much time on drugs
They only drained me
Caged my mind
For that I'd get
Loss of words
They ditched me in the night
I burned up time
Stagnent I'd ignite
Inspiration bleeds from lost days
So now I'll use it as bait
