Than Life All Comes Flooding Back
Turning into what once was, orbits turning back
Silence over the earth for a minute but only then
water stands still in brooks never flooding
Changing that old look bringing back a new life
Swallowing the dirt into the deads mouths until the tear comes
Darkness over taking the children's eyes around all
Poking those eyes into a perverted sickness laying over us all
A gross dream chokes into that old space and back
The old rumble in their seats when rain comes
The Sick and decaying looking on the health they had then
Space seeps into the earth’s hardened life
Until all of the fire and ice break in flooding
Sparks of deceit pour into minds already flooding
Screams warp into laughs around the forbidden all
Those that cry won’t be able to live a life
The world will chew them up and lay put them back
Wishing they sat back down but then
All the darkness comes
Running away with what comes
Youths toes swiped in the flooding
Pulling them under then
Up in dirt and all
But that life never runs back
They run away from life
Into a sick life
Blackness comes
Rotting their back
doubt flooding
Maybe this is all
Just a dream but then
Only Then
Life
All
Comes
Flooding
Back
Hoping that then their old life
Will leave and new will be what comes
