Lay down the law
Heavy as a lead balloon
Over the lives
Of the many
Not the few
The draconian rule
Come from those who
Have the most to loose
So heed the warnings
Of a way of life
Unusual
To you
Lay down the law
Heavy as a lead balloon
Over the lives
Of the many
Not the few
The draconian rule
Come from those who
Have the most to loose
So heed the warnings
Of a way of life
Unusual
To you
In the orange light
Of fall
Upon the grass
Of the later
Part of the year
We have hopes
Of what is to come
In the time
We have
Together
When did we become peasants
Serving the queen
Of taking the path
Paved by others
Not blazed by the own
Heart
The heartless
Have ripped our lives
Out of our own
To this unknown
We are not a passive stupid people
We are focused on saving
What we have left
To live for
I’m late
Again
It what for
Who knows
The time flies
And my mind goes
The train
Runs by
in the rain
Bustling down
On the city streets
The oil smell
Pulls from underneath the wind
And over toward me
I can see a person sitting
Watching
And looking back
Right at me
Better today
Than yesterday
So everyday try
To be
Better
A city on the river
Embolden with water
On every side
To take the high life
Or the high line
Of what memories I have
Of the city
Style of
Life
A storm
Of proportions
Unknown
So hold your hands
Tight
Don’t look outside
And take heed
To the warnings
Of the night
What is it that
I am holding on
To
For what reason
Do I have to see it
Through
My eyes
And my fears
Only one moment remains
In a life
Lived well
What is beautiful
Sometimes comes with pain
Gains from today
Make a better tomorrow
So make what has
To be done
Better
With every chance
You get
