"Tonight`s The Night"

Tonight`s the night. And it`s going to keep happening.
Again and again. Over and over.

In the dark is where I roam.
The shadows are my home.
As I approach my mind is clear.
Except the thought of how it`s near.

Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.

Once again. I hesitate.
Not to think. I won`t go through.
Just another stolen soul.
Induldge to fill that great dark hole.

Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.

In this world. There is no end.
The rules are set. I will not bend.
Not for anything or anyone.
It must be done.

Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.
Tonight`s The Night.

Tonight`s The Night. And it will keep happening.
Again and again. Over and over.

I`m not man nor beast.
I`m something new all together.
I`m DEXTER.

Ode to a code

We all are creatures of our past
we learn from life and those within it
our fathers gave us what they could
for us to make it as we should.

And when we became free of them
to some it was a separation
to others just a liberation
or even more, an expiation.

A code is given to us all
not written down, it is inscribed
upon our willingness to see
that which we were taught to be.

And from that code we discover
just what we will have to add
to make it more than it began
and give it to our own children.

Now Dex will soon a father be
and he will have to find a way
to share his code as it has grown
before his son be on his own.

My night palace is a dark abode,
a mortal passage to salvation.
I play the day just as I'm told,
until night's invitation.

Paternal guidance at night sublime,
dead days are simply props.
But night brings life into it's time,
mine starts when their life stops.

Blood tells all in many ways,
my passenger confides.
Those who think crime truly pays,
wind up as blood-splotched slides.

So murder, greed, and godless souls
stray down that darkened trail.
I'll be there when your bell tolls
and we'll see who goes to hell...

An excellent expression of the symbiotic relationship. :)
