Graduation Down

 

Everything falls apart,

even the best laid plans.

Having a broken heart

is something we understand.

I’ve fallen down a hole,

couldn’t get up again.

Living the simple life

is right for a simple man.

 

Feeling a bit

overexposed

this strange, new world.

Never reconciled

where I’ve been

with where I want to go.

Showed up late

to my own

graduation.

Salvation

is a drug,

or so I’m told.

 

Everyone falls apart,

even the best of friends.

We knew right from the start

that this was going to end.

I’m gonna let you down.

You’re gonna lose your way.

Don’t give up on me, now.

I need you to stay.
