Nothing actually savors on the tongue Everything is temporary Glimpses of Memories Past might be saved along the creases in your mind, But they dissipate with the particles in time Wheels may turn and gears might crank All will not really be there Bruises that once covered the ridges of your breastbone Fade into the skin, the marrow, the blood Pushing and pulsing that had felt right Will only be dreamt of as wrong Home is never a sturdy thing, No matter how deep the foundation goes Time likes to play us like a fish testing bait The fun of it makes us unaware That we've lost the hook on what we're looking for.

Never Say Always
Nothing actually savors on the tongue Everything is temporary Glimpses of Memories Past might be saved along the creases in your mind, But they dissipate with the particles in time Wheels may turn and gears might crank All will not really be there Bruises that once covered the ridges of your breastbone Fade into the skin, the marrow, the blood Pushing and pulsing that had felt right Will only be dreamt of as wrong Home is never a sturdy thing, No matter how deep the foundation goes Time likes to play us like a fish testing bait The fun of it makes us unaware That we've lost the hook on what we're looking for.
