Well we stayed inside

When it rained

It was summertime

Or mid-spring

Kept the TV on

Listening

To the empty words

And dying dreams

Peace a forgotten

Commodity

Love a distant memory

And the roof it leaked

Yea we stayed inside

To keep warm

And at night she cried

So lonely

Friends a convenient

Accessory

To wear on our sleeves

And the tile cracked

Well sleet rained

down too fast

Before we could

Reach an exit

Trapped inside yea

Burned alive

As the kindling

Gasped for air

Meaning written on walls

Graffiti

Covered all we shared

As the paint peeled
