Musser Park - Divided Heaven

I found you painted in the corner

Chances are you were holding up my walls

Perhaps it’s not the odds that matter

But the risk of watching them fall

I kept my motivation reeling

Even when my aspirations simply stalled

For roads paved with such good intentions

I’ve ground to a halt, rusted through from the salt

What worries me

What worries me

Is not what’s right or wrong

Or this path that feels one-thousand miles long

But the ring in my head that says

Lost on the streets of my hometown

My heads hangs in a fog of nostalgic bliss

I’m in need of any reason

Or rhyme to tell me why I left

Now I’m cracking from the pressure

So determined to make it on my own

Seal it with an empty gesture

One more notch on my list: vinegar and piss

What worries me

What worries me

Is not what’s right or wrong

Or this path that feels one-thousand miles long

But the ring in my head that says

All is but lost and how could I love you if I stayed?

The moment is gone and with it went all last chances saved

To be forgiven
