Broken Without A Remedy

by Synyster   Aug 14, 2005


Walk along the forgotten beach
Watching sandy footprints fade
Look to the horizon where I can’t reach
AS I sit where we both once laid
This left behind, now so simple to remember
We sat alone gazing at the night sky
Asleep in your arms as the fire dies to ember
Soothed by the ocean waves’ constant sigh
You promise me forever and a day…
Whether too early or too late
You were gone before Labor Day
People tell me they can relate
All of them reeking of hypocrisy
Inhale, exhale – all I can hear.
Alone, where the world can see
Crying a Red River of 10,000 tears
Ghosts of the past haunting my mind
Searching for the truth that will never be
For a serenity I will never find
Broken without a remedy.
