Memories tell lies, “Behind enemy lines” is getting caught in my mind. But “two twos” overslept, Behind glossed over eyes the secrets are kept. So memories tell lies, That you already know. My youth kept inside hides, That’s something I just couldn’t let go. That self supremacy just wouldn’t die, Why, Oh why shouldn’t I just forget my woes? Over obsessively weighing cons against pros, The case only gets closed whenever the answers are known. Heart beats keep pace, Decaying on the longer blood flows. Sour and tart, Life’s an acquired taste, Some don’t mind waiting as the cancer just grows. But hearts need to race, Down roads with no clue wherever it goes. I’m chasing being alive, I just know that I’m close. I’m chasing down my life, To see the “Ro” I miss most. Memories tell lies, Sincerely yours, One of the guys.
