Senseless Acts of Desperation
Senseless acts of desperation. Motions made in your sleep.
I walk where the land meets the sea
The chains are draped down my back.
Forgiving comes easy darling
Yet the memory of you remains.
I walk away from the shadow of your reign
But never have I left this dwelling since you went away.
I am unafraid,
I am letting it come down as it may.
Allowing the ebb and flow
The dispersal of retribution.
I am crawling through your pride
I am sitting with your turmoil and shame.
We have no limits there
There are no places for us to be.
Senseless acts of desperation. Motions made in your sleep.
I will always walk where the land meets your sea.
