You said it had to be something worth living for
And I believed in you
You're wrapped up in insecurities
I'm drinking my way out of hell

Just as I've believed in west coast pipe dreams
Or a travelers mistake to run into what makes them ache at night
I am sorry
We could grind our teeth over the past
But bitter tongues never used to speak their way into your light
I write like I've got anxiety swallowing my ambitions
So forget what they've told you
We've got to run far
Far away from all that haunts us
A thief, a ghost, gastly in it's intentions
For the namesake of your tombstone will be the final words you never speak
Interpret the language as you see fit
God won't let me speak
And I question who played the real father role for this family
These disjointed rearrangements of what a tangible love should tell you
How dangerous it is to share your gift
And have it returned unopened
If you're not the shadow complex
You're afraid of daybreak
And a reminder of your choices
Is this what you wanted to become
Is this the face of your soul
Indistinguishable from the smoke
The hailfire
The grenades
You put all the effort into your defense
They still gave you nothing

Please
Why won't anyone carry you out of prison
Why is life not made of fictional heroes
That do the right thing
That don't leave others behind

Children, our children, the future
We're so productive
We're so reductive
I can't care because it's not the right time
They'll die before you can say I love you
You have to speak now
Raise your glasses up high
As I present to you
Mr. And Mrs
Acceptance
For all the wrongdoings
For the betrayal
For forgiveness
I need to know that life has more
To offer than the pain of return
You told me there was something after
I'm still here

For me to have been accepted by everyone
I would have had to have been no one
I thought the more people knew my name
The more I'd be remembered
The more, my memorial would be mutually messaged as
He was a mountain full of miracles
We fear the loneliest roads just as much as the tallest peaks
Yet we know everything will reach home
