about

an empty room and hallow halls
domestic barren wasteland
i think i'm lost and everything's inverted
can we start this over once again i beg
i hate this sound these lonely footsteps
creeping like old wood
i'v said that this would continue to get worse

stop, right there
and listen to these words
the modern social bible turned this soliloquy to curse
i don't care, if i repeat this verse
i'd say these words a million times if i knew they'd work

please come home
i hate that you're gone
reasons that you've roamed so far
have made everything go wrong
these tears have gone internal
throwing these organs all off
my basic functions slows to molasses
these emotions fester i recall

the little lovely kisses blended softly on my neck
the only thing that made my day go by
but then there came the day your brain switches its parallels
it made me stop dead in my tracks
i thought that you had lied

all, alone
left with my mistake
my own conceited playbook has led this soul to break
memories, destroy me while i wake
dragging on my day to day
i don't know how much i can take

please come home
i hate that you're gone
reasons that you've roamed so far
have made everything go wrong
these tears have gone internal
throwing these organs all off
my basic functions slows to molasses
these emotions fester i recall

the crazy jokes we made both laughing
running round the house
the love we had was stronger than the earth
the bond i'v broken, threw away a truly treasure found
i'm on my hands and knees oh pleading
please just let this work
