Petals In The Grass
Naked Memories
The past haunts me with beatings
Today beats me with the past
Get this noose from around my neck
Because I'm ready to fall
Tomorrow calls my name
I need to be there to answer
But these memories are strangling me
And won't let go
Whats left of my self-esteem is crying
Whats left of my soul is weeping
Into a salty sea of eternity
These tears will flow
My mother isn't calling
My father isn't here
I'll embrace nothingness
And make love to the suicidal ideation
As I lay here wondering
The ceiling has no answers
For the naked memories that stare back
Today beats me with the past
Get this noose from around my neck
Because I'm ready to fall
Tomorrow calls my name
I need to be there to answer
But these memories are strangling me
And won't let go
Whats left of my self-esteem is crying
Whats left of my soul is weeping
Into a salty sea of eternity
These tears will flow
My mother isn't calling
My father isn't here
I'll embrace nothingness
And make love to the suicidal ideation
As I lay here wondering
The ceiling has no answers
For the naked memories that stare back
