what'd you expect to see when the darkness sets in

the blinding light is fading away

remains, smoke trails, the fun we had then

a promise in vain, to friends remain

innocence of youth

had we known the truth


can you be honest? promise your not holding back

retrace the space between then and now

conscious, wasting, the formative years

erase what you felt, the precious fears

animosity

malice, spite, and jealousy


sympathy means everything / hospitality and hostility

you’ll hide me away / resolve it another day

I can’t deal with you

can’t you see I’ve so much to do

sugar and saccharin / won’t make this right again

I feel all is lost / if you want to play then that’s the cost


intrigue is frail, balanced between

heartache and the weight of the rest of your life

clueless, searching, for patterns throughout

hidden meaning, a lovely girl

don’t waste your time
