Everyone has that thin film of dust over a part of a memory

It usually blocks out the unpleasant events residing there

Like a parasite, sucking the fun out of the way

A day gone wrong at the end,

But it was one of the best they had lived

A heart break followed by a kiss and a warm embrace

That heart break goes, but the love-kissed warm embrace will always stay

A new toy in the afternoon, but broken before the evening could say hello

But right here, the film of dust will cover it all

No one likes to recall the ecstasy felt right before the hard fall

Too much disappointment just after feeling on top of the world

That's the way to the hollowness a person can become

Rock hard heart, because emotions can lead to a fancy isle

But no lover is holding out a hand

Just a pretty coffin with a name that will be forgotten

Or so they thought

Petty, how much they lost

A mother's love

A father's pride

A sister's closeness

A brother's protectiveness

A friend's craziness

Being drawn as heroes with their children's crayons

That film of dust takes time to clear

Years of layers built up a gear

All gears are breakable

We just need the right angle to aim the spear
