In my eye, upon the sky, my hero's die In my dream, of yonder stream, my fathers' scream On my bed, I've already said, today I bled To my friend, Heart to lend, I know the end Cross my face, dots in space, but whats the case Down my cheek, sprung a leak, he says I'm weak Curl my fist, flex a wrist, now he's pissed Throw my hand, faced a land, HERE I STAND |

Yo Bob... there be some power here. Hmmm... Classic confrontation between father and son... son seeking independance from overbearing father... possible disagreement on underlying issues. Like the format of writting. Not bad for just "banging" it out. Peace! |

Wow, thanks again for the praise peeps! Andrew, thats basically true what you wrote, but its not so much seeking independance as it is a kid who's not going to take this crap anymore, and he builds this anger, represses it, and then explodes without considering consequence and not caring. Thanks for reading all! |
