The stationary we stole The courage spent will serve a different role The floor above the waves- Will be the grave of every word in this tireless exchange The heavy air that sinks Failing to forgive the weakest links The noble residents- Will house the starving son They love him still despite his insolence We all succumb Some lives will never surface The endless fall will only give them pause But I am done If the suffering will cease- I welcome it with thunderous applause A patient mind prevails The coming storm will fell the mighty sails A desperate voice submits With trembling lips the heavy words it wields begin to split The panic takes control The shuddering begins My fears have all awoke I've never been the strong I've squandered all the promise I'm nothing but the emptiest of songs We all succumb Some lives will never surface The endless fall will only give them pause But I am done If the suffering will cease- I welcome it with thunderous applause
