year

Story by mzmm on SoFurry

, , , ,

i'm writing an album

this is a song from it

enjoy


nazis marching down the streets again

didn't know i'd been gone since the forties man

friends in graves before i even hear they?re dead

just wish i could have said goodbye to them

it's alright

i'm okay

i came out

yesterday

and the sun

in my eyes

was replaced

by the night

i don't need the sun to tell me everything's going to be alright

walk out of the slaughterhouse just to see the terror in their eyes

didn't know i'd been gone for this long

don't even know what i'm looking at

the graves go on for miles

if not bodies, then ego death

it's been a year

how could I fear

that the world could change so much

only a year

but now I fear

that I'm fragile to the touch

been so long that the seasons stayed

summer blinding my eyes again

and even though I've been gone

the same thoughts are in my brain

?i don't know if I can take this,

life just seems so unfair

how am I supposed to live

in a body in disrepair??

it's been a year

how could I fear

that I could change so much

only a year

but now I'm here

and I'm fragile to the touch

(fragile)

(fragile)

so many friends are dead or gone

didn't even hear their swan songs

i just hope mine will travel far
