Cruel
For that year
That month
That day
That hour
That minute
That second
That moment devoured
A man
A woman
A boy
A girl
A toddler
A infant destroyed
This country
This village
This state
This county
This town
This city
This land
This house attacked
Your mother
Your farther
Your grandma
Your grandpa
Your brother
Your sister
Your aunt
Your uncle
Your cousin
Your children killed
Broken nations
Broken families
Broken homes
Broken bones
Broken hearts beyond repair
For this is the sound
Of a war

Derecognize
I don't recognize this man
Who has blood on his hands
I don't recognize this boy
Who seems to know the ways of war
I don't recognize his voice
Sounds as if he has no choice
I don't recognize his life
Doesn't look like it's interested in mine
I don't recognize his eyes
Dialed and so unwise
I don't recognize his touch
What feeling is it
cold
Why are you so fearful of me
Why are you so afraid of everything
Why are running away, from your home
You have just returned
You don't recognize us anymore
I don't recognize his face
Dirty, out of place
I don't recognize his ways
Blurry, unseen by me
I don't recognize his whimper
I heard all the time now sounds like
hurt
Why are you so fearful of me
Why are you so afraid of everything
Why are running away, from your home
You have just returned
You don't recognize us anymore

Don't you dare go back
Don't give me that stare
Of annoyance
When I am laughing
Don't give me that glare
Of hatred
When I am enjoying something
Don't give me that snare
Of anger
When I am talking to the guy I like
I will smile and wave at your face
Good-bye
You better just shove off
You heard me
Just walk away
You could
Stare at me all day
With an explosion
Of love, madness and hurt plus hate
But noooooo
I am not coming back
Yes, no
I won't go back
You can cry within my eye sight
And I won't budge
You can give me a lots of roses
And I'll throw them away
You can 'accidentally' run into me in the hall way
And I will make no contact of attractiveness
You can go get a girl friend and hold her hand
And I will just walk by and say hi to my best boyfriend
You can act tough in front of my friends
And I won't show soreness for my what you call a 'poor choice'
I will smirk at your confusion
Farewell
You better just shove off
You heard me
Just walk away
You could
Stare at me all day
With an explosion
Of love, madness and hurt plus hate
But noooooo
I am not coming back
Yes, no
I won't go back
In my stupidness
I had to dang trip
Right in front of you
My boyfriend ran to save me
But too late
I was already in your arms
Looking straight into your eyes I try to get free
Knowing your gaze will hypnotize me
With that slight loud whisper of yours
The game babe is that you run and hide
Sooner or later no matter where you are
You'll still be mine
You better just shove off
You heard me
Just walk away
You could
Stare at me all day
With an explosion
Of love, madness and hurt plus hate
But noooooo
I am not coming back
No
I hope I won't go back

Doomer
Darkness
Killing
Blood-spilling
Coldness
Reckless
Always friendless
Alone
Evil
Red-eyed foe
Why don't you just let go
Erase the fears you've come to know
And let the world see what goes
Hell is gambling your soul
We won't know who you'll become
Or if you'll be sold
It's done
Your time has seconded out
No air left to cast a doubt
You will be lashed so fast
Your breath won't catch
Your brain won't react
To the fact that you left
A long time ago
Birdie Anderson
