Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00	Song of the Dispossessed The river is deep and the road is long, Daylight comes and I want to go home. Awoke this morning To find my people's tongues were tied And in my dreams They were given books to poison their minds. The river is deep and the mountain high, How long before the other side. We are their mortar, Their building bricks and their clay. Their gold teeth mirror Both our joys and our pain. The river is deep and the ocean wide, Who will teach us how to read the signs. The earth is our mother She taught us to embrace the light, Now the lord is master She suffers an eternal night. You blocked up my ears, You plucked out my eyes, You cut out my tongue, You fed me with lies, Oh lord.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00	The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove I thought that you knew it all Well you've seen it ten times before. I thought that you had it down With both your feet on the ground. I love slow...slow but deep. Feigned affections wash over me. Dream on my dear And renounce temporal obligations. Dream on my dear It's a sleep from which you may not awaken. You build me up then you knock me down. You play the fool while I play the clown. We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum. You raise my hopes then you raise the odds You tell me that I dream too much Now I'm serving time in disillusionment. I don't believe you anymore...I don't believe you. I thought that I knew it all I'd seen all the signs before. I thought that you were the one In darkness my heart was won. You build me up then you knock me down. You play the fool while I play the clown. We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum. You raise my hopes then you raise the odds You tell me that I dream too much Now I'm serving time in a domestic graveyard. I don't believe you anymore...I don't believe you. Never let it be said I was untrue I never found a home inside of you. Never let it be said I was untrue I gave you all my time. Now seeking junior Brownstones to adopt I see stupid people...They're everywhere...They don't know they're stupid...

Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00	I AM STRECHED ON YOUR GRAVE I am stretched on your grave And will lie there forever With your hands held in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever My apple tree my brightness 'Tis time we were together For I smell of the earth And am stained by the weather When my family thinks That I'm safe in my bed From night until morning I am stretched at your head Calling out to the air With tears both hot and wild Oh I grieve for the girl That I loved as a child The priests and the friars Behold me in dread Because I still love you My love and you're dead I would still be your shelter From rain and from storm And with you in your cold grave I cannot sleep warm This message was edited by Lgaia on 5-12-01 @ 12:27 AM

Hanger-On Registered: Oct. 00	Xavier Fair Rosanna, your vagrancy's a familiar tale. Fraught with danger, the lives you led were judged profane. Hatred enfolds us, inculates our minds with it's heresy. Laymen enfold us, clemency arise to set you free. Fate, Arvo Rosannia has prayed That life giving waters may rain Down on the souls of men To cure them of their ways. These were the sins of Xavier's past, Hung like jewels in the forest of veils. Deep in the heart where the mysteries emerge Eve bears the stigma of original sin. Freedom's so hard, When we are all bound by laws, etched in the scheme Of nature's own hand, Unseen by all those who fail in their pursuit of fate. Arvo Rosannia has prayed That life giving waters may rain Down on the souls of men To cure them of their ways. And as the night turns into day, Will the sun illuminate your way, Or will your nightmares come home to stay?.. Xavier love lies here in chains. These were the sins of Xavier's past, Hung like jewels in the forest of veils.
