It comes in with a thunderous surprise
Unstoppable, and unknowingly dark
Change is subtle but wears no disguise
And before the clocks fine, change is before your eyes
The peace and the quiet of it all
The joys of times simply so unknown
It all becomes something special before fall
And someday you'll know not all was shown
With the spring comes a new world of wonder
Laughter and cheer mix with the ravaged mind
None have yet to see what boils from down under
It's the coming heat they've yet been able to find
In the heat of the night when the world starts shaking
The ugly eyes of tomorrow peak from below
But what is it that's there for the taking
That's still not something the breaker will show
Etching it's way into all lives
The demons beneath begin to rumble
It's cutting into hearts with the sharpest of knives
Around the breaker, things begin to crumble
To wear the face of an angel for you
It comes with but one mission and path
Making noise and draining things through
And you're not knowing you already feel it's wrath
It takes you by the pieces, bit by bit
Robbing from everything around
And all the world is burnable by their hit
Their evil still remains unfound
Pushing and edging to the end of a cliff
Blindly following their devilish lead
Still unable to accept the what if
They're serving a far more selfish need
It all comes down in the inevitable end
And their hand is finally laid down
They were never what you saw, friend
You never saw the devil's crown
Broken and alone you find your place to be
And they seem to go back to the palace
But at the end, no one gets away judgment free
Of that we all may find much solace
There comes a time when all must pay for their sins
And those who break things not theirs suffer
And sooner or later it eventually begins
Consequences and punishment no buffer
The real devil rises and vanishes in a night
Finally takes the penance that is owed
Then is gone without a sight
The real devils back down the road
You thought you were the devil
But you've not paid your due
Keeping it on the level
The devil's coming for you

From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
