I was just the other side of sixteen
In the midst of another childhood dream
She was reaching for me
I was looking for a place to go
The night ended as the sun broke the dawn

I walked the streets of a little town
No place to hide my shame
I was not even sure of hers or my name
Wires of trip spread like a trap
Explosions of feelings image that

No palace on hill
Just a bunch of dead bodies
Nothing left to kill
Cry me river
Does not matter if you do
Over the other side
I miss you

Bags filled with sand
Hole dug deep enough to cover a man
Tunnels weaving from here to there
Heartache does not care

I was the other side of hell
Some how managed to get her home
Trouble in the sky above
She said it was gratitude
I had mistaken for love

Wow! Walter, not surprisingly this is very good! You always put your heart into your writing, and this is no exception.

Kinda like innocence lost...
