Trying again.

[4youtonotice]

we could teach our tongues to talk in different manners than we reference
so often and less honest we're just speaking out at what we feel is

owed to us
a mistrust
and an obvious
disregard

the recognition isn't fitting
to the faces of the flame
that kept us warm and away from harm
to where many hold their mothers and refrain

"my friends are my family!
And i'll never let you get to me!"
But the brothers and sisters
become the bothers and the lists of
complaints and regrets
it seems we failed the test

if we could sit in sight of all the signs that lead us through the night
we'd remember of the times when no roadblocks claimed our right

an interest
in selfishness
and a finger points
at loneliness

funny where the finger points
and arms are bending at the joints
to the hearts that they once held
and now they've happened to have jailed

the songs they sing
through night they ring
said:

"my friends are my family!
And i'll never let you get to me!"
But the brothers and sisters
become the bothers and the lists of
complaints and regrets
it seems we failed the test

I shake my head.
I kneel on legs.

I never knew,
it'd be gone so soon.

I shake my head.

I never knew,
