I am already gone
And the halls were lined
With the disembodied
And the dustly wings
Which fell from flesh
Gasplessly
And I go
Where the trees go
And I walk
From a higher education
For now and for hire
It beats me
But I do not know
And it beats me
But I do not know
It beats me
But I do not know
I do not know
Palaces and stormclouds
And the rought, straggly sage, and the smoke
And the way it will all come together
In quietness and in time
And you laws of property
Oh you free economy
And you unending afterthoughts
You could've told me before
Never get so attached to a poem
You forget truth that lacks lyricism
And never draw so close to the heat
That you forget that you must eat
This place is damp and ghostly I am already gone And the halls were lined With the disembodied And the dustly wings Which fell from flesh Gasplessly And I go Where the trees go And I walk From a higher education For now and for hire It beats me But I do not know And it beats me But I do not know It beats me But I do not know I do not know Palaces and stormclouds And the rought, straggly sage, and the smoke And the way it will all come together In quietness and in time And you laws of property Oh you free economy And you unending afterthoughts You could've told me before Never get so attached to a poem You forget truth that lacks lyricism And never draw so close to the heat That you forget that you must eat Explain Request ×
