From Innocence To Decay

I turned on you
You turned on me
we got older it was 83
I never knew
you to be
a lot more colder than me.

As the years went
and the time spent
and the leaves fall
and the tears call
call to me back
to dying days no lack

as I drove by today
the grey sky the cold grave
I saw where you was yesterday
Only to find you lifeless
a bleak reminder under grass
That time for us did not last.
