The well has dried out
The well has dried out, need to find another source
the ship has gone awry, need to find another course
Im moving through the sea trying to dodge the jade storm
these walls I’ve made home
No longer feel warm
A flash in a pan,
bask in acquiescence
used my only weapon to sever
my only brethren
they nod with the look of accepted disapointment
I pause thinking over what will be my next movement, foolish
sits in my notepad
foolish
murmurs from my old man
foolish
is the lonely nomad
foolish
I am for my sown circumstance

I throw a rope and I call
why did you fall
they hold the rope and they crawl
how I’ve damned us all
they climb the rope and they call
why did you call?
I hold the rope and I fall
I fall and I fall

I’ve been your pen pall for longer than I should’ve, I’m sorry
when I’m around you I can’t function properly
I’ll still love you regardless that aint changing
Can’t stand the sound of my chains clanging
im your close confident
complete carte Blanche
the one to give you sight
in a land of false prophets
the one to give you light
in a land of lost gods
I show you the odds when you’re fooled by the facade
Shown your smile I jump in the mirage
someone else jumps, too loud is the applause
I can’t be angry that your gaze isn’t swayed
nor can I waste away hoping that you look my way
all I want to be, both him and her, live in their worlds
where they are diamonds and pearls

But I’m Parker.
that’s all I’ve got
i need to learn when the war has been fought.
stop.

I throw a rope and I call
why did you fall
they hold the rope and they crawl
how I’ve damned us all
they climb the rope and they call
why did you call?
I hold the rope and I fall
I fall and I fall
