Boredom Slaughter

Another young lover Mourns

A rose hiding under its own thorns.

Pride in peril 

A kiss so sterile

But her dance is still a little something special.

 

Here I go 

Another futile crusade

Sea sick in this tideless ocean

Trying to read a sundial in the shade.

 

Wasn't it nice?

The laughter that came from upstairs.

Wasn't it nice?

The silly drunken prayers

Our dreams screeching to a halt.

As we cleaned each other's wounds with salt.

 

Waiting here scraping the bottom of the barrel.

As a branch rots off the family tree.

There's nothing over the horizon 

If I fail to remember they'll be nothing left.

Another who wishes they never had me.

Our love is in Hospice 

 Jesting of lives injustice.
