So If you read between the lines on his withered skin There's story but no one is listening All that's left laid to rest in cardboard tombs Sits awaiting death in a stark old room Where a person can turn to a burden So he dresses in a shirt and ties a noose to that world missed Man of house, patriarch, bread winner Reduced to a guest in a home less familiar Only blood he sees bubbles in syringes That stings to remind him of his innings Just another anchor on that ocean floor A topic of discussion of which treasures are spoken for He prayed until the days he felt unheard Discovered darkness, remembered that he loved her And fights the urge to give in Now the memories of her are his religion Ruins hide the wisdom Youth in equilibrium Beautify the killing When we eulogise the living Euthanise decisions The future I'm misgiving Dehumanise the victim When we eulogise the living I hope you live to see your loneliest days What a felonious phrase I'm just charmed by your stoic ways I hope you live to see your loneliest days What I was hoping to say That the world needs your knowing grace Bless the young They seldom come For a severed tongue Or breathless lungs Some swan songs are best unsung So If you read between the lines on her weathered face there's a story that emanates of better days She can blink away a decade but seconds take an age Trapped in a body only memories escape That TV flickers images of foreign times Feels like she's fossilising, but not the eyes Carer, matriarch, stronghold Reduced to a stranger in a foreign home Her train of thoughts run on abandoned lines Recognising stops but the tracks won't oblige A kaleidoscope mind obscures and frustrates Trying to figure out the images before they decay Her inner child chasing coherence like butterflies For everyone she catches another dies She pines the night might take her in her sleep So she can be graceful in her defeat Ruins hide the wisdom Youth in equilibrium Beautify the killing When we eulogise the living Euthanise decisions The future I'm misgiving Dehumanise the victim When we eulogise the living I hope you live to see your loneliest days What a felonious phrase I'm just charmed by your stoic ways I hope you live to see your loneliest days What I was hoping to say That the world needs your knowing grace Bless the young They seldom come For a severed tongue Or breathless lungs Some swan songs are best unsung
