• Deepest Roots and Darkest Blues

Have you ever wondered what the world would be like without you?
If you murdered your dreams and we buried you
The thought that was the bitter seed, the subterranean trajectory
That was thrust deep within the earth, and grew into a twisted tree

The origins of modern sadness, to obsess over life and death
While life is short and growth is slow, patience is the task at hand
While the wait for happiness, can be agony
An eternity in death, can be much more easily achieved

It’s the truth in true despair, deepest roots, darkest blues
The belief that all is lost, and that nothing can be done

How sad life can be when those, who once-wanted, don’t want anymore
And when those who already have it, can’t see it, for what it’s worth
The frustration that as soon as you think that it is all just meaningless
You are proven wrong again, when you find meaning at the end…
Shallow within the earth, buried deep beneath the snow
You would remain forever young while the rest of us grow old
We would act upon our guilt, a northern burial was your wish
We would obey and fulfill, for your importance is strengthened by your early death

It’s the truth in true despair, deepest roots, darkest blues
The belief that all is lost, and that nothing can be done

Forever frozen, never to decompose, your body would be preserved
While we all live, and struggle on, and inherit, the life that you deserved
Your youthful looks remembered, your dignity retained
While there would be no relief for us, and we’d look worse everyday

In our minds and in our hearts, in frames, you image will hang
On the walls of grieving homes and other places you would never go again

Imagine the things they would say about you,
How your death was premature, but you life was overdue.

You have already spent your better years taking your time for granted
It will be yours in the end, but at what price
To have wasted, your entire life
Wishing it all away…Death is a Tease!

To venture into the thought of despair and pull yourself back together again,
Knowing you had once stood on the edge and almost dove in.
Everything had driven me there, another lesson, best learned young:
When you want it, you can’t have it, when you don’t want it, it’s done.

For all our guilt, for all our lies, for all we care, we’d gather together to say goodbye
As if the dead can’t see the living, they would volunteer to twist the truth
For the comfort of each other and say “He was a good friend of mine.”
Make the choice, to stay alive! Existence is your only hope to fight!
Not for the love of life or the fear of death, but to save the lies from the breath…

…of the ones around you, who would speak and cry,
For the ones around you who would fake and lie,
Who would say that they knew you well and that you would be missed,
As a storm of admiration buries you again.
