I date the final entry, they've been so far between

So many role reversals, so many lies unseen

Where's the land of honey?

It all seems so unreal...

I cried a dying river all the way to the lake

Undertow of our disasters, soil bed rich in past mistakes

Caught by the beauty of her, strapped in by nature's call

In life we give her everything, in death she takes it all

Sever the safety cords

The rescue teams won't come today

No way

Flood surge is rising high

Who survies is her proclivity

Mourn not what we haven't known, only the things that we've had and lost

These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home

Under the southern skies, I'm begging

Like a child awaiting a thrashing

The night has fallen, and I just missed the sun

Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile

Better to risk it all than spend another minute dead

Maybe I can be the light, instead of farming all the dark

Truth is, the law's just a word and law's just truth to the lie

These arms won't stop from shaking, take me home

Under the southern skies, I'm begging

Like a child awaiting a thrashing

The night has fallen, and I just missed the sun

Sorrow just hides behind a smile and goes the extra mile

Sunrise so beautiful

Come to shame my ugly scars...

Mourn the southern skies

Who is the judge, the criminal?

Would be try himself just and fair?

I can't imagine so, still I believe in the dreams, not the lies

Why can't the dreams just come to me?

it's the nightmares that won't go away

My soul deserves to know

Still I believe in the dreams, not the lies
