The company I keep so quiet
Beneath deep sleep
Some time ago
You left your shoes laid out so neatly
While I strayed away from life completely
Will you hate me if I don't
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control again?
["He was a thousand years old, and he took to the mountains to see what no man had ever seen. And what he saw was..."]
Bright streaks
Of light
Sprawled out
Across the water
Coated in sun
Your eyes seemed older
Will you hate me if I don't
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control?
Will you hate me if I don't
Send the messages I wrote
All the times left unresolved
What if I can't keep control again?
["He was creeping and crawling up the stairs step by step by step. Each step more painful than the last. What was he thinking? He was a man of wisdom, love and compassion. But one final step, he would never forget."]
