Slowly rotting from the inside out
the leaves turn green to gray
luscious colors seep and fade
leaving a bland and breathless day
Nothing ever changes
these damn things stay the same
wallowing in sadness
never felt quite this way
Those I long to love
leave me in the dust
I guess thats what i'm worth
as my soul begins to rust
Rushing winds of regret
drown the sweetest hymns
while ancient songs of sadness
freely flow and swim
The lead me across pastures
and old forgotten paths
reminding me of a life
I was innocent and free
Free from these scars that burn me deep
free from tears and relentless weep
free from this heart that sits in two
free from a life of meaningless woe
Thin creations ease my pain
putrid hate erases the names
of those who threw me in this place
who mocked my name and spit in my face
As aimlessly I wander
with an unquenchable thirst for love
lonely, restless nights
only to be cured with a kiss
But I wander all alone
winds sweep me to and fro
looking for a love
more love, it has to grow
What I want, I do not know
but relentlessly, I search
through bitter rain and brittle snow
this love, my love, must grow
