Absent Minded

Privileged

Tricks of the trade
and love begins its crusade
sticks in the stone
and sympathy got caught with its hand
in the cookie jar
Empathetic bones spread out
to remind this broken home

Feet of the north
south on my shoulders
and I'm hanging on to the
east and west
oh my precious
not til i get what i want
will i ever let you go

Mistakes of a brigade
and wondering thoughts remain
of the void and the essence
that is so hard to tell

Braving sanity and logical thought
Reminded of the lies and its
opposing brutal honesty.

Never thought history would forgive itself
and the line drawn again in the
sands,
fair is fair,
sacrifice the evil.
