The Voices in My Head Say
by Maxburn and really too many others to list..

The voices in my head say many things,
Some of them are just sounds like a phone that constantly rings.
Once in a while they tell me to do things i know i shouldn't do,
Like stick my screwdriver in any available screw.
Sometimes they just murmur, sometimes they shout,
Most of the time i don't know what they are *#*@ing shouting about.
They're always in my head not really ever quiet,
With all the noise going on, you'd think there was a riot.
Well id better quit this, you see its time for my medication,
The doc said these pills were the best for heavy sedation.
You see im not really crazy, i know this to be so,
The voices in my head all told me this, and they should know.

The Nero Crew
Now sit back and let me tell ya a little story,
It's about people who try to help others, and not for glory.
We're the Nero crew at AfterDawn
We work on burn logs, all day, all night long.
Why, we've even got a frog,
We're always trying to figure out why someone's Nero log went to the dogs.
It isn't easy, matter of a fact, it can be quite rough.
But we the Nero crew, we're pretty tuff.
We'll get you burning again, if you let us.
Don't want to do what is suggested, and start making a big fuss,
Forget me helping you, im taking a bus.
See we work for free,
But we aint taking crap from anybody.
We'll help anyone, its our thrill,
To fix your problems without racking up a big bill.
We don't ask for much,
We don't even need a kind word, or a soft touch.
All we ask is that you try what we suggest,
It's alot better than crossing your fingers, and hoping for the best.
Who are the Nero Crew?
Well, if you'd try to help us, it could be YOU!!
Come on, be one of the crew.
It's one of the greatest things you can do.
We've got a Nero burn log fresh and ready, just waiting for you.
But watch out, it can be addictive.
Don't get to the point where fixing a log is your only reason to live.
So here's some suggestions,
For those of you who already have questions.
Get a tough hide,
Some posters just want to take you for a ride.
Enjoy pain,
Love it like a forest loves rain.
It would also help,
If your not quite sane,
Kinda messed up in the brain.
Nero logs can drive you crazy.
Its not a place for the faint of heart, or the lazy.
Me, i dont have to worry about going insane,
I already know i've got a messed up brain.

THE NERO CREW
I SALUTE YOU!!!

(too many greats for me to list the real nero crew, but you would have to start that list with creaky's name right on top)

Slaying Dragons
In this modern day and age,
You dont see dragons being written about by any sage.
They seem to only be found in books of fantasy,
Not flying around and attacking people like you and me.
But let me tell you a little secret,
These things exist, and they and they love to start sh*t.
They come into your life when you invite them in,
You may think at the time, they can be your best friend.
But these things are really only here to abuse you,
They rip you apart, and have much more fun than you do.
Don't believe the fallacy that a sword and shield will help,
If you ever get caught in a dragons flame, you're gonna yelp.
Its gonna burn ya, and not just singe ya,
You can't stop it, even if you are a Ninja.
And don't think you can defeat them by using one against the other,
Do that, and you will find, you now have a Dragon as a brother.
You're only salvation is to be found within,
After all, thats really where all addictions begin.
If you have enough strength and courage you will make it,
Not enough, and you'll take that hit, you can't fake it.
You may survive to live another day,
But keep playing with Dragons, and they will get you in some way.
See, there is no real way to slay a Dragon,
If its alcohol, stay on the wagon.
If its cocaine,
Don't let that crap mess up your brain.
I can't give you the answers for every affliction,
There are too many, to list the answers to every addiction.
If you have made it this far in life, then you have the power,
It's inside you, waiting to be used, at any hour.
Fight these things, don't let them win,
Don't be an idiot like me, who decided to let them in.
They didn't have to break down the door,
I opened it up, all the while laughing, and rolling around on the floor.
I thought they were my buddies, yes we had a good time,
Until i woke up one day, and found out, i didn't have a dime.
They use you,
Abuse you,
They mess with your body, jack with your head,
And when they have had their fun, they leave you for dead.
So take my advice, its really just a suggestion,
Don't let these things win, fight them without question.
You are much better than that,
And you don't need them around, not even on your hat.
Dragons are best left to fantasy books,
Don't let them in your house, and NEVER let them cook.

If We Had To Speak In Rhymes
Would the world be a better place, if we spoke in rhymes?
It would make you think, before you blurt out something quick time.
Maybe we would think more about how to respond,
Rather than our usual rambling on.
Would it make us better as a species?
When rhyming things come out of our mouth, rather than the usual feces?
We would have to stop and think,
How is the best way to say this, and tickle them pink?
Things would slow down a lot more,
We may even have time to hold open a door,
For someone who needs, just a little bit more.
Why, it would even be hard to fight a war.
And that wouldn�t be so bad,
Fighting wars seems to be the latest fad.
I need some bombs dropped right there,
Please don�t place them in my hair.
If you didn�t say it in a rhyme,
Your orders would not be carried out, anytime.
Soon maybe all the Generals
Would loose all their war manuals.
And instead crack open a bottle of wine,
Find some place good to dine,
And ponder the best way to reply,
To that lowly GI.
Who had the balls to say this to your face,
War is against the human race!

************************************************
FAMILY

All humans are born with a family,
They are the ones anyone can see,
Just by looking up your genealogical tree.
You might even find them here on AD.
If you are lucky, sometimes you get another one.
These are not related by blood,
But they can be closer than a father to a son.
This new family is rarely a dud.
They are the type that will get dirty to pull you out of the mud.
Remember now, they are not related by blood.
If your new family is really tight,
They will be there with you, in any fight.
They will watch your back,
If any fools decide to attack.
Sometimes life decides you got a bad deal,
When the biological family you got was un-real.
Your new family can even be of another race.
Love knows no color of ones face.
The saying goes �You can pick your friends, but you can�t pick your family�
That may be, for the ones everyone can see.
For those lucky few, who wind up with a family anew,
We can all look on happily and say,
Finally life did it your way.

Sunny Day

Today was a sunny day.
The sun sent a smile my way.
It could have come from any place,
This time it came from outer space.
For me, seeing the sun is a rare event,
For night people, time and space get bent.
Night becomes day, day becomes night.
Sometimes just seeing the sun, gives me a fright.
I live by the night, sleep during the day.
Time really just gets in my way.
The sun kept shining while I was asleep,
Even though thoughts of it thru my mind would creep.
We can all have a sunny day in our head,
No matter thoughts that may bring dread.
Let the sun shine thru.
It's smile might even put one on YOU.
I think we all have bouts of depression,
When just making it thru the day is a workout session.
When all you can think of are thoughts of gloom.
Let the sun shine in your head, in that very dark room.
A smile belongs on everyone�s face,
No matter the color, no matter the race.
The sun is sending a smile to you,
And it came all the way from outer space.
The least you could do, to say you are happy too,
Is to smile right back to the sun�s face.
Smile and send a laugh out to outer space.
The sun will be happy too,
And will send it's warmth right back to you.
