"It's the End of your Day as you know it"
Dust.
And the air
Is stained
With old cigarettes.
Pain.
Angish.
And the taste
Of dispair,
Scar the flesh
Like a razer blade
On a child's
Wrist.
Fire
Flames
And the smell of burning
Scars my lungs.
The past haunts me.
The future''s out of reach.
I try to gasp for air
Leaking words
From a folded
Hankachef.
Waiting to die
We are glowing embers in the red
Dancing the tango
With memories of the dead.
The sun fades to grey
The night fights to submit.
It's the end of your day
As you know it.
not that you would
ever know it.
And the air
Is stained
With old cigarettes.
Pain.
Angish.
And the taste
Of dispair,
Scar the flesh
Like a razer blade
On a child's
Wrist.
Fire
Flames
And the smell of burning
Scars my lungs.
The past haunts me.
The future''s out of reach.
I try to gasp for air
Leaking words
From a folded
Hankachef.
Waiting to die
We are glowing embers in the red
Dancing the tango
With memories of the dead.
The sun fades to grey
The night fights to submit.
It's the end of your day
As you know it.
not that you would
ever know it.
