This Is Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

This Is Goodbye
Yellow Brick Road

So much fuckin pain
Insane with no certainty
facing demons and
facing angels
I’m sure are my imagination
but adore
just the same

I fear that the end is nigh
I fear that the end is nigh…
As something’s got to give

Me?
I have a played the fool
more often than I can count
I know I can trust No One
as My eyes Are every where…
Who I am, it never mattered
Why even pretend it did
(or would you?)

I see all
I hear all
My soul is inside out
I can’t touch you
I never had the chance
I never met that dream
I wanted (our) magicK to live
forever

The time is so close
Time to retire, time to rest
Time to Punch the clock
there ain’t no more to give
Insides drained as my soul
I’ve drawn and quartered myself
Here among the unliven
The horses will set me free

This
is the garden of pain
Hemlock groves, Nerium Oleander
Grows, mocking beauty with death
that nurtures silence in the night
where surely some semblance of peace must reside…..

I guess
I truly was
A Starr amongst
The constellations
Betlejuise Betlejuise Betlejuise
Nothing happens for me

I’ve been dead for so long
My reflection baring light
It never hit me why I was only
Seen at night

So here I go
Climbing higher
To Reside somewhere
beyond The Yellow Brick Road

Maybe you’ll get a replacement
There’s plenty like me to be found

I’m sorry I Didn’t know
What you wanted or how
To be that for you

I truly, wanted you
To Have it ALL
To… Be Perfect
Just for you

I once was lost
But now I’m found
To dig up a corpse
Like me

Goodbye
