Dry

Dry

 

 

Fountains and streams dry as dust

 

Fallen dried raindrops wrought my life to rust

 

Staring at the ceiling my feet can't touch the floor

 

Given up on given up I can't give anymore

 

 

Sands of time have buried me so deep I can't breathe

 

With clouds of toxic fumes I've been killed like a weed

 

Discarded like a piece of trash in a dirty landfill

 

I have been dried of all my strength and all of my will

 

 

I hear a soft knocking right outside of my door

 

The wolf's teeth of hunger I have nothing to feed anymore

 

Soon I hope that it will just dry away return to dust

 

Like the dryness that I find in trust

 

 

I went fishing in a dry lake the other day

 

All of the fish had been dried all away

 

A nothing left to eat but one skinny dry bone

 

Guess it must be for the sin that I must atone
