Words At a Funeral
Let's cast these words at a funeral like shards in clay pots
like hard sounds n bright noise of memories of this lot
of feelings real and surreal meant
of just lies like this life as words are hard
like knifes deep in one's side casting thoughts
to the earth like stars falling in after birth
these words of love and hate are bitter and sweet
of memories forgetting and of everything
in echos of fate as the life that once was
I stand here and reminisce about a world
how it was, with this my love, my friend,
my enemy, my faith, now a hole is torn
into my reality, an opening to nowhere, nothing at all
I remember it all as it was and more than I care for my love
I despise you, you're my world, my nucleus
of all I have, is words left and nothing at all
all is ash, in this place, drifting across this earth
lets these words rebound resonate and decimate
the whole earth, my empty heart, my empire of dirt
let these words at a funeral hang in the air
like the words of the damned, the swords of Damocles
the vapors of crematorium the ghost of the doomed
the deaths, we all take, let these words annihilate
lets these works be like glass shattering in the atmosphere
casting thoughts to the ground
let's cast these words at a funeral like shards in a clay pot
like hard sounds of bright noise in memories of this lot
and feelings real, surreal meant to be
lies are like this life and words are hard
razors deep in one side, casting to grounds
like thoughts to the earth, stars falling in after birth.
