Wasted Youth

A Boy With Roses

We echo like reflected waves                                                                                      

Heathens and verbiage                                                                                                

We fall into dreams like rose petals                                                                    

Swimming in tattered white                                                                            

Looking for some kind of harmony 

 

In the time capsule of pilgrimage in blue sky                                                                

The turning wheel of the heart and mind                                                                        

I struggle to find the point of life, pushing over clouds                                            

Drowning in the rain, tufts of unfurled wisdom                                                              

So close I can feel your pain, that incessant silence

 

(You are like me, and I am like you                                                                                  

We're always the same, never changing                                                                    

Unsolved equations, moving like dream music)

 

Your eyes are empty like moons, stuck in this noose                                                

Choking on words and spitting at fools                                                                    

If I had all the gold in the world then I would be king                                                      

But I'd gladly give it all to you, kissing goodbye to wasted youth                                          

Kissing goodbye to wasted youth.
