The grass; flat.
Autumn leaves; scattered.
Two birds; pecking.
Firm trees; tall and grounded.
Charisma boys; young.
Senseful girls; fair.
Insightful elders; straint.
Do not doubt the older,
For they were once like you,
Except now stronger
And still are wiser.
My boundary of flesh
Being dragged around
My soul, heart, and mind
Trapped inside
Yet I feel so empty
Don't smile unless you're happy
Don't cry unless you're sad
Don't drink until you're thirsty
Don't repent unless you feel bad
There's something more here
You can guess your best
Be my guest
But no answer will satisfy
There will be no more rest.
Goodbye my sweet;
I said goodbye
But stay with me
Until I must die.

Trapped inside
Yet I feel so empty
Don't smile unless you're happy
Don't cry unless you're sad
Don't drink until you're thirsty
Don't repent unless you feel bad
There's something more here
You can guess your best

But no answer will satisfy
There will be no more rest.
Goodbye my sweet;
I said goodbye
But stay with me
Until I must die.
