It has been done! The return is completed! Now to grow fainter To be buried in soft shades of jade I used to like the rainfalls - to feel tender bites of grey city water on my white, clean face pure from the start - dirty to the end drawing diagonal marks - shutting me into a private prison with bars of water on skin The smell of wet asphalt always softened up a hard world 90 degree angles, shiny surfaces covered in dirt and worn out streets leading from nothing to nothing Who put us here anyway? Did I ever take the time to find out? Did they ever bother to ask? Was it even an option? It's been returned I wonder if the dirt has forced its way through my skin by now Feels like it's there - itching from the inside, weakening my flesh I need a sunblock or a dirtblock - something to protect me Nothing's ever gonna be the same again I'm on the wrong... surface Nothing's ever gonna be the same again Nothing's ever gonna be the same again Open up the shell, wash away the facade Let me out or let me in Open up the shell, wash away the facade Let me out or let me in Please just let me, Please just let me Please just let me, Please just let me
