I yearn for the love I once held
That once engulfed my lunges
That I held for granted
Between my hands carelessly
Then somewhere along the way
You held my hand with a cold clasp
gripping at that warmth
that joy
that love that sang from the rooftops without ever being mentioned
You spun that love and placed it upon another's head
The crown of honor that the whole pack saw, the bat signal of approval
My washed-up corpse lie on the ground with your friendly embrace
being but a memory
As the cells regenerate, they cling to one another
Pleading for the love I once took for granted
They swarm to you
you are their honey
there light in the darkness
and I long for your light once more
but alas the world is dark and decays
those who longed so dearly to drink from my fountain
laugh in harmony with their new toy
I reap what I sew
yet my clothes are bear
bearin as the mother with no children left
As the birds sang our final goodbye
I feel relief that she's moving on
I yearn for a world that will never be mine
Where leaves move with the sound of the wind
And the simple spotting smell of incense soothes my soul
I just wish I could change
Just a little bit more
