"I pledge allegiance, to the flag of the united states of America. Thank you very very much for letting us little kids live here. It really was nice of you. You didn't have to do it, and it's really not creepy to have little little kids, mindlessly recite this anthem, every day, and pledge their lives to a government, before they're old enough to think about what they're saying. This is not a form of brainwashing"

I can't stand in the rain Sometimes, I get caught in the rain And the rain drops down And the rain drops down Just a little and my head drops down and I don't know the answer yes, or what it entails Ill sue the world And then what's your deal? I'm alive I'll say it for my health Because I tried so hard Just to convince myself That I have laid to rest All of the dreams I had But everyone goes through this So you can't be sad I have washed myself into a person I hate While I watch all the people I love go insane Every life is a time bomb But you're not allowed To ask questions until the green porch light goes out I see you there You're running clean You'll never make it Know what I mean? Those skinny faces You wear them all I've tried to break out Or running from Finding myself Just to lose it again While I fall down and stumble again and again And again I will wait Because that's what they do And when everyone's knocking I'll know what it is And I'm running away And I'll do it again And I'll watch it all crumble Again and again I will falter I will find the light's confines

Hey I see you Running down the minivan I can't be you Taking off your fucking pants I'm not running What is this a fucking test I won't throw it away For just a rugged chest I don't want it Better run the fuck away Black out comet We're running and we're running because I don't want it this is unacceptable grab some sugar Rub it on my fucking balls I don't feel it now I don't feel it no Are you ready to die? Or are you better alone? Don't call out your eyes Unless you know that you missed Or that you think that you're right Or that you fucking exist Don't want it now I don't feel it no I simply took out a line And now she took off her clothes Don't be asking me why Cuz it just is what it is And I wonder why for several days she says I can't imagine what the pillows have found Or while your running down south Because you're feeling it now And it's admissible that we're all into feelings now Well lights out I don't want the heard around And I'm Two footed just dancing around And turning down a table with your head in the ground because I've never known what is cool And I don't know how dance Everything is just a raisin in place cuz I don't feel it now I don't feel it no Are you ready to die? Or are you better alone? Don't call out your eyes Unless you know that you missed Or that you think that you're right Or that you fucking exist Don't want it now I don't feel it no I simply took out a line And now she took off her clothes Don't be asking me why cuz it just is what it is And I wonder why for several days she says Were right at the peak of distress Were right in the turn of this mess No wonder were drowning the source Were right and we thought there'd be more Were ready and taking the ring And all the unfortunate things I feel you Don't run any more Take all my fear and my lungs at the source in a parcel and then you don't want me no more? I know why Your eyes are whiter Your teeth are brighter I watch you through the window Wondering why you lick that plate at night And I just wonder if you're a person I just wonder if this is worth it I either get caught or I guess I'll make an example out of you We're just ants that became way to powerful And I think that's god's fault Look inside and you'll see me Look inside and you'll find peace I keep the peace like armored Shermans And surely I know that it's unnerving But we're just ants that became way to powerful And it's god's fault.

I want a world, All living in Sin I took one look at the world Decided I gave a shit But you are here in the walls I never feel I belong The only thing is that, I am. I am. I hate it. I took a rock, tossed it into the sun. No one knows, Oh what it feels like to be any of them. The only thing in the right is Admitting you lost it. Cause nobody knows, I am. I am, Orion. I want to strike you all. You're not invincible. and while your hearing this, all of your pleasure is already dying. I've been nervous I've lost my purpose. My home deserves this, (but without a purpose) And the hardest part is I know they're all liars Unhand the night, I am. I am, Orion. I'm not dying, just to spite everyone Until i'm sinking six feet, pleasure seems so morbid and wrong. Why are you baring me from, somewhere I feel I belong? That's everybody's answer. I am. I am, Orion. I want to strike you all. You're not invincible. And once your hearing this, all of your pleasure is already dying. Ya know, all I ever wanted was to be liked, ya know. I just wanted to be a good person. I guess that's too hard. People don't understand decency anymore it seems ya know. I get caught up in the details, the turntables, the cogs of reality. What does being alive mean anyway? I mean, how do you even know? It just seems like it's a big government conspiracy to me. I wish you were me. Hydras, come from the lion Im dying, to prove you wrong. Im dying, Im trying, Instead.

Hey little Sherif, Its me it's your dad. Im here just to give you I'd give you the best time's I had I know that you might find this news desperate, but I got my ass eaten right up by a snake. I tried to tell you it's my heart to break and I know that its hard just to see a good deed. Don't plan ahead now this cannot get worse, like that night when guy ended up in a hearse. I know you chose me to blackout the sun I'll contact the powers that be when I'm done The flames they will burn And cease to exist I just wish I knew what the fuck I did. Mire to all things Fire and brimstone Watch as I contact to infinite wisdom But listen they don't Its not what they do But sometimes it's just in the cards that you lose Bring out chess pieces Lined up with skulls And knock them all down Just everyone does I asked my lawyer to take out the trash He said that he would have just left if I asked I know you chose me to blackout the sun I'll contact the powers that be when I'm done The flames they will burn And cease to exist I just wish I knew what the fuck I did. Mire to all things Fire and brimstone Watch as I contact to infinite wisdom But listen they don't Its not what they do But sometimes it's just in the cards that you lose I am the light. Heaven will touch you, I wish I could teach you. Down in the water. The water. The world is getting cold my friend, are you no longer? I couldn't save him. I could have saved him. It would not ever go my way, back to the day that you always recant.

I've got a question for my health. Did you go to heaven when you killed yourself? No more running around, like a son of a bitch. You run out of time! Or did you cover things up? I'm rotting out like enamel Then you tied it around stray camels. I don't want it to be the last night anymore So lay here, come on lets put the ring on your door. The way you show people down knows dead industry, And this is the difference between you and me. Do you know what it feels like to not be buried alive? Well I guess we'll never know. I guess we'll never know. There are too many people in this house. if you do not leave now, I don't care what it's about. And there's too many people, in this motherfucking house Theres too many people in this house. There are too many people in this house, or too many people who know what about. There's too many people, wading the beltway, waiting for something or other. Stop, drop or roll I don't get it at all. And never trust me at once, Instead you've lost it at all. Since I am, when it gets better If it gets better not if things get better. Turn away i've lost my faith in the system. Never get it at all, and if you trust me I won't. Don't forget it at all, don't forget it.

I gave you worship. I gave you peace. You've had everything which I couldn't release. I gave you everything, what could it mean? I gave you ruins, from the ones that you gave to me. Nobody cares, no one cares at all. I am the purveyor of a love fucking hated. "god don't have no gays up in heaven. god don't have no homosexuals up there. how do you expect to go to heaven if you can't stay away from the cigarette smoke? how do you expect to go to heaven when you can't stay away from being a homosexual?" Runaway

Lifeless Drawn and overdone A vision soon Perfect Dark calls out "Put your nose to the ground, Haul ass til' you've found, But please don't look down. Please don't look down." 1:15 1:58 1:58 These are my times and they may be some of the fastest you have ever seen and I see you there Promise me all of the times which you have said to be that there is a truth upon what I see or is there more to what you say to me John Kaleta What have you done? In life I wanted to be the best I never meant to cause this mess The curtains fall, a memory What does it mean? Im running what could it mean? As I sit here looking back, are you not looking back? These streets are filled with sorrowed tongues our lungs are filled with a hollow shell I am, not gonna be, I wanna be the fastest. . . . "Sadly, John Kaleta passed away in 2012 at the young age of 65 He will always be remembered as an absolute legend."
