What happened To all those things we said? To the stances we took? To the movement we led? What happened To the fire in our eyes? To the cries in our throat? To the passion deep inside? I look around Feel we’ve sold our soul But a shell of What once made us whole Oh, we’ve learned well How to scream and shout Angry with nothing To be angry about Here I am once again Sounding the alarm Haunted by a sacred trust: Protect this from all harm I reach out, in support Are you even there? Striving to make this count Do you even care? Are you even there? Do you even care?

Darkness of this night, Invading my mind Distant siren wails Warns me it’s too late Still I seal this letter Ignore all the signs D49535 Hope it’s not too late I refuse to believe this is the end Dreamed your dreams Feared your nightmares This can’t be the end So spread your wings Cast off these chains Let your heart sing Leave this world in flames Your life has been a perfect storm So much bullshit thrown in your way And in the end the streets’ strong pull It sucked you in and swallowed you whole This envelope My pledge to you I still have hope I believe in you

Sleepless once again In this city of sunken eyes Battered dreams Broken souls Haunted by the growing gulf Between myself and the others surrounding me I search desperately, hopelessly, aimlessly I search endlessly For that perfect sequence of words That will make you feel something That will make me feel anything Turmoil brews within Consuming me and all I am Wall of silence built so thick The right words never reach my lips These eyes set hard against the world outside Betraying nothing of this divide Of this decay, of this demise You don’t know me Don’t even try A fucking phony I have nothing to offer No words to still the pain No parables to show you the way I am nothing I have nothing This song does nothing That perfect sequence of words escapes me

Ghost of yesteryear Sneering through a saw tooth grin Lurking through the streets Littered with the charred remains Of naiveté Sizzling and smoldering Sending caustic smoke To its death, cloaked in contempt Faces turned away Ashamed by the reminder Of all that once was And all they once thought could be But all is a ruse This ghost, but a prisoner Of its own device Unknowingly led to die Subtly prodded Along a dead end pathway To a bitter end At the hands of the hangman Onward to the gallows Sentenced to a bitter end At the hands of the hangman
