Homecoming Events: Dissapearance

You're an enigma, a shadow, a fractured person with no latitude
You sectioned yourself in two pieces, neither one could ever be loved
you leave so much to be desired,
Your cold shoulders won't ever keep me off, they won't ever keep us away

But you say there is nothing left, you have no way to keep on living but you keep mourning your own nonexistance,

So keep burying your hatchet five feet under ground, give yourself enough hope to try to get out but you know the only place to go now is down

The world around you was waiting for you to climb mountains and build houses, but you let it all go and thought it would all build itself,

Without the character to carry on you just lay there and hope tonight goes your way, but your soul is an empty box with broken bones

Golden Guild

Pushing down on pottery,
Kettles singing marching whistles;
Spider broaches fast moving,
Fast approaches;

Your red hair was fake but the green behind the ink was reminiscent of the summer you sewed me together;

Now I lay here with my son, and tell him stories of all the women who will never be his mother -

It's bedtime somewhere in Palesburg,
Where the children hide under staircases and don't believe in a man named God;

As she walked by me, she swore she had no intentions of putting her clothes back on,
And that if I was dying tonight that I wasn't going to be doing it alone

And we walked together; a wall of dying men, telling our sons we can't ever be their fathers,
For we are soulless beings and the vultures they have for mothers will replace them with nicotine and kerosene kisses,

Somewhere in an unfamiliar place called Palesburg,
Bags of gold allured our love ones away

Save the Sky

So this is the beginning of what seems like such a beautiful end
When the world keeps spinning,
We will lay in bed and play pretend,
This is our house, this is our world!
So listen to me while I tell you story of how fast everything changed,
Everything changed;
Did you happen to notice, the man with the motif that exclaimed rest in peace?
So let's keep this up, our one common ceiling is falling and with no remorse our feet will take their course
Make what you will our love will stay only as strong as your heartbeats.
Watch me demise
I'll die right before your eyes
