Five Years

by simon-fox

Don't wait in the crowd, you will only fall down Trampled Under soles, made of gold, truth unfolds Five years untold The mark still remains Such fashions in place, removing your face Would be a good start Forget your heart, as you take part Now we can begin Subconscious is screaming out Another year, we'll shut it down Now you're leading the crowd So sickly and proud Full of emptiness The badge you wear, salutes the carelessness But wait, unsure, an itch, now a sore What can this be The weight, unbearable This part, so familiar What can this, what can this be Saying to me, all that I see It's faded, degraded A mark profound, rests on my brow The print of gold as it did scold It branded me and left me cold All of those fateful years ago I remember my place I remember my soul I'll flee from the crowd Yes, I'll fly out of town Back to the past I'll dig him up, because, because Oh to be who I once was
