lullaby

now as you lay down to go to sleep

perhaps a good time to repeat, the promises that you made

that lie in shallow graves

talk and talk, and wheel and deal, steal their hope and watch them squeal

you motto stays intact:”talk real loud and promise the moon and when no one is looking let the air out of the balloon”

so as you rest your head to sleep, damn if i know how you find any peace, but the saddest part of all, we will recover and you will continue to fall into the abyss of selfishness

wake up

[TO MYSELF AND ANYONE THAT CAN IDENTIFY]
