Long time
No see
Well, you're still a child
Weak and confused
Don't you want to know?
Where we'll go?
Where they went.
Our eyes
Our minds
Our design
I know you hate it
God, you must love this
How's your soul?
Have you seen it
Held it, recently?
Your title
Our roles
Nobody knows
How this story goes.
Do you regret it?
Do you feel any
Remorse, guilt, I know there's
Pain
I know there's a stain
You wrote a letter
Once, before or now
For all of time
But never forever
An evolved language
That named guns and blood
Funds and hateful dreams
You wrote a letter
You spoke it aloud
Quiet and loud
Cried and in your laughter
You greeted it with a wish
A death wish
That is what you pay
To cross the river
A cage of darkness
So bright, and fake
If only you had used
Your teeth
You could have bitten through it
Recognized it wasn't
Real
Every wish has a cost
A price
Every heart pays it
Every soul searches for the loophole
No mind dares reach out
Touch the paper, cause the ink to bleed
Some dream to lead
Some dream to be able to fead
Their family, and their friends
Some know everything is a means to an end
Some know everything will come to an end
No matter what you do
We all have a wish
Some dream of hope and care
Attention and stares
Some dream of happiness and fortune
Silence and crowds
Some wish for life
And others
Wish for death
You're dancing
Oh, pretty words
You're dancing
Or, we must ask
Are you performing?
Running, chasing?
Climbing, crawling?
You want to hide
Its the nature of life
You have a death wish
The sun will kill you
So will the shadows
No fear, kid, I'm here.
earthdecays
Hear the screams?
You've heard that
Far too many times.
Isn't it fun?
The shadows aren't that bad
The sun will burn you
But, the shadows
Will leave you starved
Hurry, feet up, move slowly, but
Have haste.
Chin up, soldier.
It's not over, not yet.
Good morning, everyone cries
Goodbye, everyone dies
Everyone lies, so
Tell me some of yours?
They're hungry, we are too
They've starved us
You know this
You've seen this
We've seen you
We hate you.
Come on, soldier
Ready your gun
Taste the metal
Excitement is good and bad
Dear god, don't look so sad!
It's quite frightening
When snow doesn't melt
The sun loses hope
It loses life
Every living thing sees it
You can see it.
You can feel it, babydoll.
Be a doll, fetch us some respect
Respectfully, you shouldn't speak that way
Someone might take it personal
Some people would die to be able to.
Apologies and amusement
Condolences and mockeries
There are aspects to this life
You need some darkness to see
When the light is a beam in the dark
And the dirt and dust shines
You'll want to hide
But, the spotlight is something you
Have to wish for
The dirt is on everyone
Everything
You made a wish
Oh, you swore an oath
A death wish
A deal with the world
The sun
The moon
The dark, the light
Its a death wish.
It's a gift.
Smile
For the cameras
Smile
For the families
Smile
For the World
Smile
For the pain is striking
Smile
But keep it
Hide it
Do what you want with it
Do whatever you wish
It all leads back
To everyone else
Welcome, I heard you
Talking
There's something
Watching
I hope it makes you feel loved
I'm not sure
It ever could
Farewell, and to my
Memory
I hope I don't
Forget
Anything, no
I bid you
Far past any dues
I wish you
Well
It was a time
It was a life
It was you
It was rare
Everything and nothing
Is like it was.
Regards,
Our Eyes, Your Eyes, Their Eyes
