Lyrics
Witness this: a mortal man absorbing all one can take
Pointlessly opposing a perfect pipedream’s wake
Perfectly honed to mar the lives of men
Immutably bound to its yoke again
Harboring a refusal to learn
The tide sees fit to carry astern
The stubborn sea commits to churn
The motherless aimlessly yearn for instructions without scorn
They sever the tethers which their arms adorn
As our fathers commit to learn to lose to life and not to mourn
Conscience germinating pangs of guilt by the score
Grasping at life’s fragmented wreckage refusing to wash ashore
Warring with diluted love’s attempt to scar the mind
Where is the dream? Gone and left behind
