Vision glows as the lights refract 3:22AM, Mid-November Didn't think I would be here Not like this It's almost winter now The days grow cold Each one passing with the same flavour Curious is it not The way in which the world falls around a person All built up to service you and her Now gone are the cities of memory you once inhabited Filled with ghosts and whispers of times gone past The occasional flutter of life sends recognition through these places Sudden and brief But it all settles back into the same fashion it was before Actions did not matter Force of will could not sustain There were not enough generators Now there is only pain Nearly allied all of this heart and soul In actuality, know that all was placed for the taking Perhaps this is why the bombs fell Maybe this is a Nuclear winter unwittingly asked for Questions that cannot be answered Faces which peer and tear Lives which once lived now automated and predictable Fill them up with all the light in the universe The water from the oceans and the rivers Bury beneath all the earth available But finish it with a gentle and caring kiss

My Heart and Soul in November
Vision glows as the lights refract 3:22AM, Mid-November Didn't think I would be here Not like this It's almost winter now The days grow cold Each one passing with the same flavour Curious is it not The way in which the world falls around a person All built up to service you and her Now gone are the cities of memory you once inhabited Filled with ghosts and whispers of times gone past The occasional flutter of life sends recognition through these places Sudden and brief But it all settles back into the same fashion it was before Actions did not matter Force of will could not sustain There were not enough generators Now there is only pain Nearly allied all of this heart and soul In actuality, know that all was placed for the taking Perhaps this is why the bombs fell Maybe this is a Nuclear winter unwittingly asked for Questions that cannot be answered Faces which peer and tear Lives which once lived now automated and predictable Fill them up with all the light in the universe The water from the oceans and the rivers Bury beneath all the earth available But finish it with a gentle and caring kiss
