I walk a lonely road
and hold your hand as I go
down desolate lanes
and I remember all the pain
you look me in the eye
"baby please, just let it die
It's all over now
lift your head
wipe the sweat from your brow"
over and over we go
over everything we used to know
I bargain my spine
"it's never too late, you can have mine"
I don't want to be alone
don't want to walk this road on my own
I take it all in
this was the town where it all did begin
and I look around
everything's burned to the ground
and when I glance again,
I know that wounds will never mend
broken building and ash
my feet walk above broken glass
and then I realize, and I stare
that your hand is no longer there
you've walked into the smoke
It's too late now, you fall and choke
whatever you thought that you would be
you were always a hero of war
to me
So this poem is a little mix of a lot of things. It has lyrics and song names from some of my favorite songs, and the whole thing is based on a dream I once had.
