Snake eyes...

Snake eyes...

Tell me lies, while somebody dies, as oversized tears are cried 
How to find, while the rich hide, as overpriced fears are designed 
Slither to me with your instinct, squeeze life out of everyone who knows you
Leave your skin so I can show the serpents the real truth 

Careless whispers feed the cities lies
You're killing the future with snake eyes
Powerless stones with red roses upon 
Fearless youth breeding so very strong
You're killing the future with snake eyes

Deceitful manipulation is your fuel that keeps you at the table
Raise a glass of pollution to the unborn seeds that you're controlling 
Light the candle, extinguish the oxygen that surrounds your people 
Stop the panic, let's flourish with a dream that hounds our creation 

Vacant, hungry, poisoned eyes
Elite, lawyers, criminal lies
Slither around their prey
The city is burning away...
Born into a reckless robot war
Sharing my prison marked walls
We are the future with eyes evil wide
We are the future with eyes accepting the blind
We are the future that hero's are built within
We are the future that create our own sins

We don't listen
We don't listen to...
Careless whispers feed the cities lies
You're killing the future with snake eyes
Powerless stones with red roses upon 
Fearless youth breeding so very strong
You're killing the future with snake eyes

We are looking everywhere
Snake eyes forever glare...
We're snake eyes!

Dear poet brother,
First of all, please allow me to apologize for the words following.......BUT....only because your words are so inspiring that I'm going to continue what I just felt from your write with my idea of its best (fresh in mind) interpretation......I Swear!! ~ I heard music from beginning to end..... and NOT what you would think!!...... Hard Core Metal Chording that made the entirety of your write come off as definitive...... Like Trent Reznor from N.I.N. (Nine inch Nails).... sort of 'Preaching' in a half singing way!!..... anyway, what you done here.... because trust me' everyone has attempted the 'Snake In The Garden', good v evil thing..... but what YOU'VE done here is UNDONE!!....THAT makes it extraordinary..... please understand I'm only speaking from a musicians perspective......... the 'S' s that you've run with here..... great alliteration by the way.... are heated... and electric...... yours is an ear of a POET!!.....NEVER let anyone take that away!!!..... having said that!!...... just wanted you to know........I've been paying attention...... and you REALLY have a gift my friend!!......ALL STARS!!....... LOVE and ROCKETS!! ?♥?

                                      well done
                                         Tony ♥

Wow! Tony thanks very much! By saying this I'm assuming that you like it ? thank you so very much Tony, I'm gobsmacked by your fantastic comments! You know, 9 times out of 10 I just do, if that makes sense? I know people that try and perfect different techniques and styles, it'll be very rare for me to know these, I've been told by many people that I have some sort of gift, but I don't know how or why, if you know what I mean? I just do...
Again thanks so much Tony ??
