Before Rally Thoughts
Before Rally Thoughts
Sun goggles are snuggling my sunken eyes
While I lay in my light tomb awaiting the day
I am rotting meat and they are my flies
Begging me to stay, begging me to stay
Surrounding me is decency and desire
Flowers I cannot kill form a rampart of hope
Vows remain unbroken in a country afire
As I discover my glory is a circle of rope
