[Scarred4Life]

Nothing ruins the taste of peanut butter like unrequited love

The sky's a silent mistress
share a lover's tear
madmen roam the streets
in the city of good cheer
"I once thought a thought,"
(Reason he fed and fought)
"And then it all seemed so clear."

Waxen features melt
an expression of regret
Recall forgetten sins
misshapen silhouettes
"I'd swear that I know,"
(voices long long ago)
"the sun will always set"

Crescendo to the break,
The seconds inch away.
And the night walks ever onward,
to bed with cuckold day.
"Her soul I kissed"
(Smoke from his lips)
"And saw it stole away."

The sanguine tide embraces
the midnight and the shore
And ivory darts will mar
since conscience is a whore

Look beyond connotation
past the words she said.
Behind dillated eyes
he saw the black and red
"Don't think on it,"
(the words he spit)
"since all my heroes are dead."
