Petals In The Grass

Lessons Learned

Caught in a vortex
Going down slow
A withered life drowning
Testing my mortality

Liberate me now
From these lascivious acts
The carnality of the day

Fluent in suffering
My mourning is never ending
Resurrecting these demons
That carry me away

It's a learned pain
Taught by my environment
Lessons mastered
Flog my mind
Fearful of whats to come
Tearful of what has been
