There was no casket to be set into the earth. Only memories were to be  burried washed clean by the bottles embrace. Strangers  do we part a vist to a familar cold place by the oceans shore. Words spoken never hurt when you  understand human nature. The dark inwhich  I only know. A dark river flowing unto the sea. Its broken current flow's with no true direction. As children we start fresh only to loose the spark. Dancing under a shroud of tenderness  apon lifes harsh stage. Bitter souls reflect  anger lost only tears of  regret. Me i just cast demons down   in some  twisted hope I just might forget. Sometimes you gotta realize when you crash through that glass celling  you only got to look forward to the floor. The bottle now empty I cast into  the dark waters eternal bed. Along  with a memory  I'll pretend to erase. Distanse is only a thought away. The road echos  my lifes song. Underground burried  so deadly the truth just as sweet as the lie. Barbwire and daydreams  plague my soul. Like the bottle that sit's within the depths of a water cast tomb. I know strangers  as friends. Night as backdrop. Farewell  seems  fitting as hello. When the river has run dry     To whom will you go?

The Death Of A Friend
There was no casket to be set into the earth. Only memories were to be  burried washed clean by the bottles embrace. Strangers  do we part a vist to a familar cold place by the oceans shore. Words spoken never hurt when you  understand human nature. The dark inwhich  I only know. A dark river flowing unto the sea. Its broken current flow's with no true direction. As children we start fresh only to loose the spark. Dancing under a shroud of tenderness  apon lifes harsh stage. Bitter souls reflect  anger lost only tears of  regret. Me i just cast demons down   in some  twisted hope I just might forget. Sometimes you gotta realize when you crash through that glass celling  you only got to look forward to the floor. The bottle now empty I cast into  the dark waters eternal bed. Along  with a memory  I'll pretend to erase. Distanse is only a thought away. The road echos  my lifes song. Underground burried  so deadly the truth just as sweet as the lie. Barbwire and daydreams  plague my soul. Like the bottle that sit's within the depths of a water cast tomb. I know strangers  as friends. Night as backdrop. Farewell  seems  fitting as hello. When the river has run dry     To whom will you go?
