THE SOUND OF SILENCE

By Simon & Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly, creeping

Left its seeds while I was, sleeping

And the vision, that was planted in my brain... still remains

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

Narrow streets of cobblestone

'Neath the halo of a streetlamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

That split the night

And touched the sound, of silence

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs, that voices never shared

No one dared

Disturb the sound, of silence

"Fools," said I, "You do not know

Silence like a cancer grows"

Hear my words that I might teach you

Take my arms that I might reach you"

But my words, like silent raindrops fell

And echoed, in the wells, of silence

And the people bowed and prayed

To the neon god they made

And the sign flashed out its warning

In the words that it was forming

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls,

And tenement halls"

And whispered in the sounds, of silence"

WHOLLY NIGHT

By Arsis

As the moon creeps forth to pierce the clouds

And it's lights embraced by a single howl

This graveyard dream was brought to life

With the breath of jealous winds

Shackled, bound, torched by the light

A thousand angels torn from flight

Longing for heaven's dark cursed

With I to guide the Cain-drawn hearse

This hate within its eyes, for a faith that often lies

From tears of mourning cries be torn

The beast is born wholly of night

Anticipation of the madness to come

Lowly angel flesh undone

Longing for heaven's dark curse

With I to guide the Cain-drawn hearse

A wielder of sickness marching on

A flame in the name of the blackest dawn

Hear my call, your fate my curse shall befall

And a scream was thrown into the night

A bloody shade to stain pure white

Of the dark dreams and lifeless eyes

Shall be un-divine

And a scream was thrown into the night

A bloody shade to stain pure white

And the one crawls nearer to their cries

To feast the beast born wholly of night

Shackled, bound, torched by the light

A thousand angels torn from flight

Longing for heaven's dark cursed

With I to guide the Cain-drawn hearse

This hate within its eyes, for a faith that often lies

From tears of mourning cries be torn

The beast is born wholly of night

A wielder of sickness marching on

A flame in the name of the blackest dawn

Hear my call, your fate my curse shall befall

SUPREME

By GosT Feat. Hayley Stewart

It could all collapse with a single hit

Like a sheet of glass and a little brick

Tied up with a note that says

You wanted this

I could never relate to the other girls

Telling lies to their guys in their perfect worlds

Set their hearts away until they look haunted

I hope I'm dreaming when I fear I'm the same

Look out behind me but there's no one to blame

I don't want to break down like this

While the others all pass me by

Too content with being safe and shy

Wait until I feel the kiss that seals my fate

As rest my childish eyes

Will they ever understand the cries

When the streets are dead and the smoke is gone

Is it clear to see what's been going on

Looking for the part of me that dropped the bomb

Should I stay and wait for another one

Is it worth the pain or did I jump the gun

Rack my brain until another piece of my heart is gone

I hope I'm dreaming when l fear l'm the same

Look out behind me but there's no one to blame

Blot out my reasons and just trust how l feel

I don't know the future

But I'm hoping this is real

I don't want to break down like this

While the others all pass me by

Too content with being safe and shy

Wait until I feel the kiss that seals my fate

As I rest my childish eyes

Will they ever understand the cries

Kelpie

by Kade Biery

It stood in the still waters gazing at him with it's large eyes

Its stare was entrancing

It was its stare that made him venture further

into unknown depths

It's eyes never seemed to blink

like a statue, unmoving

Its black mane swayed in the breeze

and sun gleamed over its coat making it shine like a black star

It was majestic

the most beautiful steed in the Isles

He wandered towards the horse, getting closer with every step

So close he could touch it now

Without hesitating he mounted the beautiful beast

It let out a huff, and took off, into the lake

Its once beautiful exterior now melted away into a black sludge

and Its eyes grew dark and hateful

a smell reminiscent of rotting meat filled his nostrils

He wanted badly to dismount, but the tar-like substance held him

It continued forward into the dark and deep, never to let him go free.
