King's highway

This is the end beautiful friend, this is the end my only friend

 

And I still hurt.

 

My face is a smoldering pit, my heart a metronome

Keeping rhythm, a haunting beat in my head

But I don’t believe in this existence, or one after it.

 

I don’t believe in time but it believes in me.

 

I don’t believe in love either.

 

The end, of our elaborate plans, the end, of everything that stands, the end…

 

They had no right to bring me here,

 Now I have none to disappear

ha-ha-ha.

 

I’d rather be a robot than at the will of a sick-humored creator.

 

I can hear his pompous roaring laugher,

His breath reeks of french-fry grease and kerosene

And no way in hell does he cart round all his holy books.

 

So I don’t sleep to save the disappointment in waking up again

And I’m sure to pass by twenty seven.

 

Death is in my hands.

 

Laugh at that b***h.

 

Desperately in need…of some…stranger’s hand in a…desperate land

 

I sit to see the different shades of gray

That are displayed in the many strangers’ faces,

With labels as names and brains for brains

Are. Any. Really. Ever. Satisfied.

 

I don’t believe in love.

 

And all the children are insane, all the children are insane waiting for the summer rain

 

To wash it all away, to wash it all away

 

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on

And he walked on down the hall

He went into the room where his sister lived, and…then he

Paid a visit to his brother, and then he

He walked on down the hall, and

And he came to a door…and he looked inside

Father, yes son, I want to kill you

Mother…I want to…WAAAAAA

 

The End

the end. the only lover with decency in design.

Nice One. I used to carve that song out on my seat at school. 'pompous roaring laugher' evokes the wizard (of oz) for some reason, probably becuase its a normal laugh put thru a hideous filter!

Love the twist to it all. You did a great job, and you should definitley do some more of this type right here.

A powerful tribute to Mr. Mojo Risin. Strong inner conflict and mesmerizing dark thoughts...his or yours? maybe both.
well done!
cheers!

Ooooh! That was creepy but really good! Full of suspense and alot of introspection throughout the lines. =)

Thanks for writing it!
