Michael Milosh - Coat Of Arms

While we all sit back and long to place the fault
Each stream will slowly turn to salt
Those angry words that went unheard
Became a game of wait your turn
Your quiet look catches my eye
I wonder when but I don't ask why

I heard laughter turn into sighs
From the hollow hallway 'neath your disguise

Always she danced to her own parade
And the people could not see what she had made
So she thought to get out and not return
And she laughed with every bridge that she burned
We don't all become what we believe
With a heart that tends to slide off from it's sleeve
Loved in a way that could not be received
The unlined border of identity

Board these windows
Nail the doors
Set to sail for untouched shores
Long tattered friends
Speak no more
Cherished past
Now ignored

Tear down this castle
Stone by stone
Bury my heart
Powder my bones
You can't forget what does not exist
When 'what if' is just as real as 'what is'
These cement boots
This crystal lake
This coat of arms and a heart that will never break
