A rising tide spent drowning in days lost to one heart's final lament Thrown off like grins known only to the dead Plastered behind scarlet eyes Stinking of tomorrow I say that once a letter is written- It's not so easily sent Like trying to find 2 of 3 But settling for one of me instead It's a hard faith to follow:
The constant give without the take; After the scraping through it's one less heart to break A head above water for the eyes held under A lasting plea for the lost mind torn asunder Nothing but fair trades and farewells When the present tense reveals a sixth sense When you'd die for a word or one less empty shell
