I date the final entry, they've been so far between So many role reversals, so many lies unseen Where's the land of honey? It all seems so unreal I cried a dying river all the way to the lake Undertow of our disasters, soil bed rich in past mistakes Caught by the beauty of her, strapped in by nature's call In life, we give her everything, in death she takes it all Sever the safety cords The rescue teams won't come today No way Flood surge is rising high Who survives is her proclivity Mourn not what we haven't known, only the things that we've had and lost These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home Under the southern skies, I'm begging Like a child awaiting a thrashing The night has fallen, and I just missed the Sun Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile Better to risk it all than spend another minute dead Maybe I can be the light, instead of farming all the dark Truth is, the law's just a word and law's just truth to the lie These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home Under the southern skies, I'm begging Like a child awaiting a thrashing The night has fallen, and I just missed the Sun Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile Sunrise so beautiful Come to shame my ugly scars Mourn the southern skies Who is the judge, the criminal? Would be try himself just and fair? I can't imagine so, still I believe in the dreams, not the lies Why can't the dreams just come to me? It's the nightmares that won't go away My soul deserves to know Still I believe in the dreams, not the lies
