Two Lyrical Works.

Wrote two new songs with the band, over the last few days, so I thought I would share them with everyone.

The first is called:

"Oral Retribution and Corruption Sustained".

What is in the eyes of man?
Hope and dreams slaughtered inside.
What is in the eyes of sin?
Revelation will confide...

What is lost in what we've become?
Strength and will and love and light.
What is lost in man's misfortune?
Now we are too weak to fight...

Dying in this lack of respect.

The second is called:

"Incubator".

In the wake of emptiness
I had become paranoid,
So you came to save my life;
Entered in to fill the void.
Now that I am on my feet,
You think that you own my soul.
I don't owe you anything.
I am under my control.

I have waited so long,
I have wasted my time.
I have wasted my life
Holding on to the past;
Holding on to old hands
As they crumble to dust.

Resentment is my delight.
Incentive is all but dead.
There is no simple answer,
So I must kill the godhead.

I have waited so long.
I have wasted my time.
I have wasted my life
Holding on to the past;
Holding on to old hands
As they crumble to dust...

---Ben Morse Jr, 2010

And that's that.
