SiS2 - And We Came Back to It
Trynt James Miley 2005 (Oh)
And we came back to it--
Not left and right,
An no merge into center.
So scream out loud,
Into the dark,
Alert the crowd
And bring a smirk
up,
And to the corners of your lips
Check your ammo, changing clips
Empty supply, find a blade
And as I drag against your dry
Skin--
Prep. now, for your life will fade--
And, in my head, a mother who'd cry
For her children who weren't a lie.
They laugh and follow rings with joy,
Like, all their life, deprived a toy
And only what, which with, they had to play
Was the thing that caused them all dismay.
From Red and Black,
To Blue and Orange,
From Red and White,
To Pink and Blue--
She lied: REREDRUM:
Lies; HTAED;
Truth. EFIL.
