Zombieland

People going through the motions
Foreign countries living in a different
Existence than what I am used to
Love doesn’t always mean more
Love can mean lessening what
You have achieved taking steps
Backwards is not a sign of
Happiness what is the sacrifice
Made worth if your life is falling away
Did it all happen for love or at the cost
Of something much more important
Your security your job your
Everything you worked so hard for
Your home your friends you’re
Gone gone gone is the song
You can sing even if you try
The crocodile finds a way to
Put the love bird back into the cage
Until you’re ready what’s the rush
If everything you want and need
Is being forced what is the trust
Of a mountain we are climbing
To discover the other side when for now
You can sit back to back with a tree

Zombie Soul

Am I just like all the rest!
Is the thing I thought I wanted
Different from the last?
I have no distraction
Therefore the biggest problem
Is the one in front of me
And they keep piling up
No mother
No father
No brother
Friendships gone
Seems like so long
Is getting closer
All the time
I share too much
I care too much
I need to go back to
A simpler time
Rewind to a place
Where I can recognize
My own face in the mirror
All that is left
For now is the
Obsidian shadow
Of somebody that
Measures so little
To the person
I used to know
Save one thing
Feel better about the other
Save one more
Feel better than before
What a way to live
Inside a zombie soul
