Halfway Home

The lazy way they turned your head
Into a rest stop for the dead
And did it all in gold and blue and grayThe efforts to allay your dread
In spite of all you knew and said
Were hard to see and harder still to sayA comfort plush all laced in lead
Was sent to quell your sentiment
And keep your trembling sentinel hand at bayAnd when a sudden silhouette
Escaped the top side of your bed
I knew you'd never ever be the sameIs it not me, am I not folded by your touch?
The words you spoke I know too much
It's over now and not enoughIs it not me, the damage you hold inside your blush?
The load you towed, you showed it up
It's over now and I'm insaneWild spirits winds from out your chest
Collides with world and wilderness
It needs a gentle hand to call it homeNow surfs the sun and scales the moon
And winds the waistband of her womb
All eyes ablaze the day you break your molds it not me, am I not culled into your clutch?
The words you spoke I know too much
We're closer now and said enoughIs it not me, am I not rolled into your crush?
The road you chose unloads control
See it take me so go on throw this stone into this halfway home
