Honored

Do you wish upon
a seraphim
does everything you lose
go to him

and when the clouds are gone
is he there for you
with raindrops on satin
dreams are soothed

everyday
of your life
spent grounded
through your eyes

but to you
the world isn't a lie
you have your purpose
you will survive

there in the clusters
of your mind...
I wish you'd see me
all of the time
but there in the clusters
a angel tears for you
far beyond standards
faith beyond truth

everyday you're gone
you're lost to creed    
all that we had
crippled beneath me

through the shine of victory
thats all you'll see
nothing about their beliefs
this is the end of me

long are days
they'll be gone again
you'll see my face again
then you'll make the choice

vintage prosperity
repressed insanity
what do I betray

no need to give in
my thoughts gone astray
nothing valuable to send

what do I betray today
who will I betray
too late to state this reclaim
of all the things I stained
when you couldn't you could you betray today?        
will you be the one I betray?

Do you wish upon
a seraphim
does everything you lose
go to him

and when the clouds are gone
is he there for you
with raindrops on satin
dreams are soothed

there in the clusters
of your mind...
I'd wish you'd see me
I wish you'd be mine
but there in the clusters
you're a angel tear
far beyond my standards
faith beyond years

what do I betray
who will I betray
when could I betray
will you be the one I betray?
