This is all that we are, just freckles on her cheek.
Her every sweet moan beckons us to seek a love insatiable.
Ungrateful martyrs depart us to lands unchartered.
I can't believe we were destined for nothing, I thought we had something.
Beached whales sing their songs.
Once strong but now weak.
We are slaves to our own dreams.
These precious lands slowly begin to break.
We pushed & we pulled 'til she gave birth to an earthquake.
Shadows dart from the cracks in our hearts & they merge into darkness.
We live our hardest.
All my demons I exorcise for you.
All my pain that I paint on this canvas is for you.
And if it all comes crashing down on me I'll drown with a smile.
This is the way it goes time & time again.
This is the way it goes.
