Drains

Lost and losing trust
I can't prevent the rust
It's starting to envelope
The lack of progress
Between us

Lessons learned through handshakes
Storied scars and faded stains
Things we still believe in
Caught before they fall through drains

Hard to say what's on my mind
Knowing well it means goodbye
Look for ways that I can tell you
Thanks, but I will be just fine

Lessons learned through handshakes
Storied scars and faded stains
Things we still believe in
Caught before they fall through drains

Time won't wait
For the days gone by
Find a way to remain
Well and I (?)

So I find the time to write
Words of hope and words of spite
Calloused hands and candle light
Bend the words to make it right

Lessons learned through handshakes
Storied scars and faded stains
Things we still believe in
Caught before they fall through drains
