Phase I:
Slowly the pen touches paper in the
guidance of the words that you write
Memories roll in of the
things you once did
And who you had shared them with
is somebody thinking of you
Did I bother telling you this
with the words that cross
teeth and jump lips
A poor choice of words in
wanting to tell you anything
But words don't come with
ease they're forever my hurt
Would it really matter if you
were to count the days
left with your hands
Your focus secure and
the loves you left well
Smiles staged in photographs
here until
You You left the light on
There's a chance I might
have tripped girl
You were there to hold on
Ignoring the words of your
obnoxious little brother
Kill or be killed spilled the
words from your mother
I'll lay awake for a while
I'll leave the light on a while
You couldn't last a lifetime caught
between here and the days of it
Carving her name across your arm
with every wish its...
...hit or miss her
I told you so I measured
distance in lines
departing the rest of my life
But you had better
things to do
But you had better
things to do
Liar Liar
Liar Liar
Liar Liar...
(Repeat x4)

(Repeat Verse 4)
----
If you'd get put to sleep
like an old
dog you're better off
should you get put to sleep
I've been cautious with
the words I extend
Allow this year before
the world starts to end
----
Your fathers dead he
passed in his sleep
and I woke to the
sounds of her crying
Your fathers dead he
passed in his sleep
and I woke to the
sounds of her crying
Your fathers dead he
passed in his sleep
Your fathers dead he
passed in his sleep
Pray for us all
(Repeat x32)
Pray for us all My
dearest Appollo
I'll be burning star 4
