The Truman Theory
Beauty tells the story
Of days we were younger
Come join the famine
Lose someone
Beneath the sands
At the Tip of your toes
A touch of the gods
Join the war
And lose someone
Bridges
They mend
The things that god
Cannot touch
Rivers
They separate
The stenches
That man
cannot rid of
Join the war
Lose someone
Among the worst
mercenary’s
Those of us
Who were careless
of wanted whispers
Join the war
And lose someone
Come join the war
Won’t you lose someone
Morning breaks
Come join the war
The warming phase
Alarming as days
Join the war
Lose someone
“The important part is the suffering,
death is just the part that eventually
happens.”
