keyboard monkey

hey keyboard monkey
[invisible boy] 
who needs eyes
when you can touch and type
who needs ears
when you can't hear
who needs a mouth
when you don't feed
just a tube stuck up your ass
upload coffee
download the waste
same in and out
does it even matter?
you're just brain matter
blazing fast fingers
ass stuck in the chair
there are creatures
living in your hair

hey keyboard monkey
you need a new keyboard perhaps
the old one is all broken 
just like your fingers
mashed to pulp
bone fragments shine 
keyboard monkey
you're no friend of mine
how much money have you made boy?
how much did you sell your dreams for?
you wanted to be a writer?
should've been clearer!
now write, motherfucker, write
the deadline is hanging on your head
you will write till you're dead
your tunnel of fate is a dead end
i am so totally not your friend
write keyboard monkey write
give up, it's pointless to fight
here, another cup of coffee
suck on this toffee
wait for another day
to go down the drain
while words fall from your brain
flat on the screen
hush
don't scream
no one cares
no one cares

You will smile

You will smile for the cameras, till they're done clicking.
If you don't smile, the cameras will steal your soul
They will fill their flashes in the empty hole
Of something that was you
Once.
So smile
Smile to save your life
Smile to be yourself
Smile to make a better day
Of something that's breaking apart anyway.

Sounds

the sounds of birds fill my ears
the sounds of chainsaws fill my fears
the anger, the danger, the madness
it all boils down to one moment

the choice is to explode or implode
to be erased, tazed or phased
into something you're not
into something you will never be

when your moment comes
what will you do
for a chance at glory
or your place in the gutter

so listen for the sounds
listen to the sounds
that carry signals from the past
to the future and your present

Are you present?

In the Dark of the Night

I will wait for you by the street light
I will stand there 
Pacing, tracing my steps
To the corner and back again

I will wait there till moonlight fills the sky
I will wait there
For you
Till sunlight

Even though I know
You won't be here
Till another thousand years or so
I will wait.

Sounds shitty? Well, it could be a dog. It could be a lover. It could be stalker. It could be a serial killer.

Sounds shitty now?
