I Wish I Knew The World Was Grey

I wish I knew the world was grey
The night a turning lantern held by a string
A whisper the ocean
The cry of a moonlit night
The damp streets pounded into the earth,
Suffocating its worn out lungs
The wolf cry of a vagabond
The tear, a pompous shade of black
The capitalists around me laugh
As I fall down on my back
The streets are crawling, crawling
Forever towards me
And I can't escape their neon glow
And they carry, carry me far away
To places I never wished to know

From Rags

Do these clothes, or rags
Make you think
I am enlightened
Or clued into a deeper part of life?

If anything, I want you to know
That I can rip them off,
And still be the same person

If anything, I want you to know
I'm just as lost as you are

I just want you to know
You can run, jump, live please
And learn

But it's not the hat, it's how you wear it
It's not your burden, it's how you bear it.

I want to devote my time to education
Rather than school
I want to jump and fall
To see what I can learn
To devote my time to honesty
The truth of life
To see the best minds of my generation
Even if they are destroyed by madness
They are after the same things I am
They are mostly soul
Detached from the their sacred heartbeat
The idea of the soul
Is the cancer of the body
For one destroys themselves to find it
For death to yourself
Is the ultimate enlightenment
Which is finally, truth.
