No Perfect Goodbye
(blegh!) The final sunrise cracks the stone
Flesh stripping slowly
from the bone
No sacred rite,
no grand design
Only the snapping
of the spine (grrrr) Cold hands clawing through the mud
Minutes tearing at the seam
Rotting out the waking dream
(wake up!)
No last day can ever be perfect!
Ash in the mouth,
fractured and bleak!
No last day can ever be perfect!
Broken and spent, the end that we seek!
Hours unravel
into dread
No peace awaits the restless dead
Iron teeth grind
through the sky
Silence takes the reason why
(ugh!) Spilling out beneath the dirt
(burn it all!)
No last day can ever be perfect!
Ash in the mouth,
fractured and bleak!
No last day can ever be perfect!
Broken and spent, the end that we seek!
(never perfect!)
Nothing whole
Nothing clean (graaah!)
