PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

call it determination
cause i can't get the feel i want
we both have termination
written all over our eyes

surrender as you say "okay"
finally you're a hero
is that reason to stay here Oh
but this wasteland sustains

call it determination
call it anticipation
call it just fustration
call it anything
but i have to get out of here
all these years
all these years they pass
but they must go by
bye

call it mercy or silence
but if my forefathers had known
how cold and alone no home is
how long and unknown their voice was

call it speaking in code
but i've always spared them
why they are the only ones
i can spare telling i dont know

pulling out a long name list
a long chain of forgiveness
i've made but i've worn the pain
round my throat straight up to the choke
but i have to break out of it
all these years
all these years they pass
but they must go by
bye

i call you the last straw to take
i called you to say goodbye
but you beat me to the phone
so don't be easier said then done

its never been easy to go
i wanted to let Jen come on home
i sent you packing to go get her
but she never came back

call it determination
call it anticipation
call it just fustration
call it anything
but i have to get out of here
all these years
all these years they pass
but they must go by
bye

call it determination
but these years are reaching an end
call it extermination
this songs coming to an end
