would someone put out the lights
blot out the sun, make it dark
blinding lights, blinding me
tripping on my thoughts that i can't see

They said they would come and
take me from here
no one has come now
i lie in fear that they will

take me, take me far away
there here sometime or never
beggars they say cant be choosers
a place where life is delivered

For old times sake

Twisted thoughts flowing

Sleeping they were,

Don’t know what gave them wings

Shame, embarrassment, lies and deceit

Head in knees

The little boy is crying

His soul is dying

With every word that is said

Between every line

Leave it all behind

Refuse to resign

Ourselves to truth that drowns inside

Forever gone innocence

Slipping like tears

All shame and fears

Stripped of garb and cloth

Naked flesh, strutting the streets

Flushed with egos

The sea is rising

To meet the moon

Spell it out, it reads soon

The tide is high

But its only noon

The little boy cries,

Singing with his soul

She leaves him now

The sun is cold

A mother wishing his hunger away

Not knowing what hurts so

She is such a fool

You can’t get what you wish for

It never works that way

We get what we deserve

The devil sings as he may

The sun shall rise

On someone’s day

Tears will fall

Where someone’s love once lay

They all still lie

Waiting to die

Thinking, of days gone by

When the young were shy

Some would laugh, while some would lie

For every lie, someone would die

The moon wept, seas rose high

The world grows cold

And the sky just dies

The little boy cries

His mother to him lies

Wait a bit longer

Dinner just arrives

Let the kid sleep, she begs

Deep,

Somewhere deep

Where every dream dies, where he is not alone

Where every one cries
