It’s true: everything’s going down the drain
We have leaders who’d rather lie and steal
And don’t care as to what the people feel
All hope has already begun to wane
We have been beaten and pushed around - True
When will this chaos stop? Well – let’s make it
Let’s stand up to the system and shake it
Enough is enough? Yeah I think so too
I want back everything taken from me:
My money, my home, my freedom of choice
My rights, my mind, my words, my heart, my voice
My pride, my feet, hands, and identity
Destiny calls: It’s happening at long last
And the time to run away is long past

For the Horde!
Come join
the Horde! Yeah I’m talking to you!
Join the
legions of the Undead and Orcs
The Tauren,
Blood Elves, Trolls and Goblins too
Don’t go
with the Alliance – they’re all dorks
We take
up blades for honour and glory!
Everyone
greets you with ‘Lok'tar Ogar’!
You want fighting,
drinking, food and money?
Then take
the trip down to Orgrimmar
We’ll
ride from the Outlands and to Northrend
We’ll go
take on Deathwing and the Liche King
We won’t fall
nor to anyone’s will bend
Because we’ve
got your back when you’re raiding
Now some
say we’re violent, ugly and crass
But who cares? We still kick all kinds of ass!

I lost my girlfriend to Jesus Christ
It’s all
over – Nothing to do or say
Gone is
my job of making her happy
Getting
back together – is there a way?
Could
think about it but it might kill me
A million
miles away is her face
Going
ahead with her wonderful life
And, for
me there’s no longer a place
And that
thought alone cuts deep like a knife
Could say
something but I don’t feel like it
Just hope
she feels warm in her sleep tonight
I thought
this one would work – and be legit
But yet
again, the dream has taken flight
There’s
nothing to do: I’ve done all I can
And thus
I’ve lost out to a better man

Whispers
A door
many have already stepped through
What happened
to them one can’t comprehend
Don’t
think if this is the right thing to do
Just come
on in and meet your new best friend
Words are
uttered in an English broken
Don’t care
‘bout your name or where you’ve come from
Not the
first time these words have been spoken
Just don’t
leave until the pain is all gone
Life
ceases to exist. Fingers touch ice
A heart
is stripped of all its emotion
With movements
automated and precise
Just sit
right back and go through the motion
Suddenly
not feeling at all too well
So shut
your mouth and fall under the spell

The Author
In the beginning
there was an idea
It cut
through the darkness with a beacon
It found
its voice and it began speakin’
Words
tumbled out with a purpose so clear
Words
that could not be destroyed or halted
Words
that formed into that which must be told
To form
more ideas – more precious than gold
And once
they knew how to walk, they bolted
Life was
created with a waving hand
Universes
were born with just one thought
Characters
came and their voices they sought
And they
walked on to forge legends so grand
And as
long as there are words to apply
Ideas
will never stop, falter or die

Limping to the Finish Line
Legs have been crippled. Bones have broken.
Constant hard work has left the hands tortured
Dry throat has no words left to be spoken
But the feet stagger in one way: Forward
I do this with the best I can muster
I give every last drop of blood and sweat
Some might say these words are all bluster
But nothing will break from the path that’s set
Some won’t like it but I’m beyond caring
Every last bit of effort I commit
Let them say all the words they’re declaring
This is my best, pal – like it or lump it
I don’t really care about victory
Because I claiming this triumph for me

Can’t spell confidence without the con
Well it’s happened yet again: Disaster
Yet another plan’s blown up in my face
My dreams have fallen, I’m left in disgrace
With but the remains of a non-starter
I really thought this one would work this time
What was I thinking? I must’ve been a fool
Asking for a break? What a laugh! Life’s cruel
You know, it’s funny how high hopes can climb
Who was I kidding? It was a dumb plan
What a chump I was to think I could win
It was only me I was deluding
How foolish it was to think that: ‘I can’
And so with my high hopes forever gone
I head back to the slime where I belong
