The Second Loyality
amongst yourselves, collectivly you have gathered
against the strength of my dieing will power
to yet concieve and to quarell beside my past
the question answered but never asked
the formation of your ranks presents itself
at its best, decieving, to reduce my mental health
structured and built solely upon destroying my final hour
and within its wake i have come to see, revenge and its power
but all in all when i return to that very place
i feel an all but subtle call to revisit what made me feel so safe
a haven for my ignorance, and the knowledge that escapes me
the place, where you no longer invite those who have disagreed
time spends, and we grow older
not remembering innocence and its odor
like a nursey rhyme without a meaning
a string without a knot, who are you decieving?
we have come this far yet to throw it all away
to renounce what we learned, and to awake
from the nightmares our own indulgenices did create
to this dwindling time we await our fate
still through all this time, that spends and falls every day
you have failed to step forward and present yourself in any way
to admit to me that you have used me up untill now
to please your crude pleasures, which have become so foul
i was just a footstool to claim your own dreams
a messenger to the stars, is the way it seems
the long hours i have bled to give you what you crave
could very well be, what seals me in my own grave
and through it all, somehow i have found another way
to be as compelled as to reach out and long and to stay
in this town for yet another moment and second of time
to renounce what ive learned and what ive lived by
and as i fade away, from the space in your memory
i hope you remember the pledge we all said, to stay
to not betray, and to never forget what we once shared
in our hearts, for that place, in space, on that day |
