City Conquered By Angels
“I said I love you, don’t make do this”
*INTRO*
These vile hands that were once erecting such a beautiful place,
Only lead me to my dust, only lead me to the dusk. A format to transcript
A lake where I can’t wade. I’m escaping through these goodbye notes, an iou to fate.
Sink into wounds, a mortal gravesight for these flames.
I said I wanted something to save me, a waking memory of your grace.
Could take it out, and let you fall into my arms.
But their to weak, a million attempts at this charm.
*CHORUS*
Two bits of time, divided into half existent eyes, as they cover up a body
That never wanted me. I said don’t Melissa, don’t Melissa, please don’t make me do this,
Now I’m drowning, I’m drowning, and the scrawling of these words put me to sleep.
Welcomed into this town, the buildings wrought by sheltered glares, glazed over by gargoyles,
Who watch over the landscape, as I fix their stares, cold and hollow, and whisper out for something,
Receiving penance, receiving memories for something I can’t keep…
The act and the form are only useless for so long, before they rise from these ashes, and ask for their souls back. Goodbye to all the waxed recoveries, sinking into happiness for you. This is what I need to say, this is what I need to say.
*CHORUS*
*OUTRo*
I’m not willing to let you go, and I’m not willing to let you go. This city to busy with unsaid thoughts, and lost and found commitments, but I just want another chance in a city constructed by animals, and then conquered by angels…can we gain our wings back?
“I said I love you, don’t make do this”
