No S On This Chest
Here to save the day
because the tears i hold at bay
would drown the universe
Happiness would change its mind
and hope would feel shame
Floating through the earth
never look up
only look out
The tweet at snows finger tips
reduced to empty people
with emptier words
Heroes without cause
let me take a pause
Give the machines there chance
anxious for my last dance
put your hands together
while the one handed man claps
Lost heroes
lost hope
lost love
forever
lost
here to save the day
with life standing in the way
