Lonely Strum


D, E, F, G, A, B, C
The sequence continues as he plucks away gently
Look at him
That haircut so trim
Sat there with the utmost pleasure
He could play forever

For him
 Forever feeling like a static time stream
In a continuous flow yet in his mind confined within a fixed dream

The world carrying on as usual
Whilst he carries on the usual
Motion after motion his fingers carefully twang against each string
In a melodic fashion he transcends himself into a purified melodious being

Whose essence and purpose is creation of musical phenomena
That sprouts once every millennia
Throwing this world into hysteria

To him
All that remains is the calm
From the soft melody of each Bible Psalm
To the hard hitting passion of the heart
Which threatens to tear us apart
That some relate to as art
Right back to the start
Picture a painting of pure simplicity
One man and his friend in harmony

As he takes the stand
With his pick in his hand
And the music in his heart

The time has come
For the lonely strum

UNKNOWN (intro)


They say the human race is the most dominant being on this whole planet 
With the manner in which they have conquered the land, the sea and the sky
 Tearing down and destroying whatever comes in its way
 With no remorse for how their actions affect their surroundings
 

But I say there is a more terrifying thing out there,
 More scary than fear itself
 It weakens the hearts of those who are proud of their physical outlook
Their countless hours of building those spectacular biological external muscles that are perfect to the human eye
 Their power based egotistical exterior becomes worthless when dealing with this level of fear


That cripples even the most intellectual minds and turns them into mindless zombies
 Philosophers over the years have strained every minuscule molecular cell in their over developed brains to uncover the mystery behind this fear


I bet you are all eager for me to verbally articulate the name given to this inanimate object,
As the sound of its title trickles out from my lips,
And it hits your inner ears causing vibrations off your ear drums
The moment your mind registers these 6 syllables
An electric shock sensation pierces through the natural conductor that is your physical body
Plunged into despair and confusion
Your whole surrounding spirals into darkness


What is out there?
You don’t know
There’s no-one around you to call for help
Alone, Frightened,
All that is left is….


The FEAR of the UNKNOWN
