There Was a Youth Once and Twice Entered Death
Deeply and fondly
I wanted to see
The truth of the matter is that it matters to me
I know life is precious
I cherrish it lots
But the truth of the matter is that I have forgot
How to live and enjoy it
to breath and not destroy it
I can't leave it or treat it
I know I mistreat it
but dear it
is simply
So wonderful
leave it
I lie here...
simply
I just die.
Youth is a waste on the young as they say
I am but a taste of the fun they say
I care for the words
I care for the choice
I care not for breathless nights
but I do recourse
I choose
I now am breathless
Romance is so deathless
I am so endless
Leave me to die here lying and moaning
I cry out so blissful
and join in your toning
droning sounds of your youth
I simply can not choose
I had no choice that made me
...made me lose
I was driving too fast
reckless souless my breath
My car swerved off road
and I was gone ...such a blast
It was a youth that was wasted on the young
but oh...how much fun
oh how much fun.
