In Absentia - Nations Afire

I hate today

Roaming off confusion through these

same old streets again

I fill my lungs

pumping undiscovered pain

into this heart of stone

I walked for miles and miles

parading like the damned

Had our connection run it’s course?

And walking out on me

as temping as it is

will never be easier

Than this moment

No loss for words

An anger rising cancer in this

wellspring of the tongue

In vacant lots

I beg forgiveness

And stumble feet on broken pavement

I walked for miles and miles

parading like the damned

Had our connection run it’s course?

And walking out on me

as temping as it is

will never be easier

Easier than this moment

January moves

Through you,

through you

January is gone

so soon

But you’ve made it

You made your move

You made your mind up didn’t you

I walked for miles and miles

parading like the damned

Had our connection run it’s course?

And walking out on me

as temping as it is

will never be easier

Than this moment

No.

Don’t let go

of this moment
