The Unnamed

(Intro) Hello……..my friends. (Chorus) It’s nice to see you After all this time……..once again Where has the time gone off to Are our memories of yesteryear Still as fresh as the lingering pain that flows like a sorrowful tear Must we keep our emotions at bay hidden securely behind a cerebral barricade that’s built up behind a facade started decades prior to yesterday (Verse 1) It’s anger that goes deeper than the oceans It’s the splatter pattern on the wall It’s the buried and pent-up emotions that destroy everything like a raging flood It’s the rage down the hall t’s the satin sheets drenched in blood (Chorus) It’s nice to see you After all this time…. once again Where has the time gone off too Are our memories of yesteryear Still as fresh as the lingering pain that flows like a sorrowful tear Must we keep our emotions at bay hidden securely behind a cerebral barricade that’s built up behind a facade started decades prior to yesterday (Verse 2) Smoking and drinking away life’s bitter potions Like the needle to the groove, That repeats the same stagnant track. Never moving forward, always pulling you back, through a life that you struggle to improve, as you wither away in the putrid mud Lyricists Inc. D.A.P. / Digital Analog Productions David A.
