Last Year's Nest

Discontent

In this life as is

Our mechanisms deviate

Rust debrided

Inspires change

And leaves behind exhausted dreams

Ignition engaged

So save your wishes for the sky

Diluted and disguised

As a perfect fuel that won't ignite

But hope will heal us all

Set to action

Our forward thought

To allocate and stabilize

The truth for so long

Can only hide

In shadows of our own design

Amend and revise

So save your wishes for the sky

Diluted and disguised

As a perfect fuel that won't ignite

But hope will heal us all

A wish will leave you empty handed

(Hope will provide)

Shun your responsibilities

(And lead an empty life)

A dream alone will bear no seed

(Hope is alive)

And wishes will leave you

Dead and buried

Lost and forgotten

With your lives

So save your wishes for the sky

Diluted and disguised

As a perfect fuel that won't ignite

But hope will heal us all
