What have I done since I've been away?
When glory has passed, and my time has ended
I will be old, yet forever in your debt
What should I do with the years that are left
They taunt and mock these wings on my back
Forever I'll pluck them, they hinder me so
and give up the secrets of the world
It's not my place to know about the world
or how it began, of how it has since ended
No one else should understand either so
They owe me nothing, for I’m in their debt
I suppose the truth will never quite get back
Mourn the last person that the earth has left
Everything and everyone has just up and left
I never saw such and empty place as the world
For all its people, you shouldn’t turn your back
Do so, and you might find you life has ended
It’s no wonder they use you to repay their debt
Their homes and their things displaced as so
I can’t believe I’ve let it get this bad, So
I can’t quite see just exactly what’s left
The end came and went, and so did my debt
I bartered for the price of the whole world
If that’s the case, no wonder they wanted it ended
It’s the only thing that they can never have back
We’ve stood here too long, it’s time we got back
You know how he gets; he does worry so
Our lives are still wanting, the coil just ended
A broken piece of it is all that we’re left
What can people do with a torn, shattered world
Who knows the worth of mankind’s total debt
All I knows is how to pay off his debt
Once it is fulfilled, then I can go back
To where? Why, of course, to my world
Where I can make things just so
And everyone will see me: the one on the left
From then on, I’ll know that the nightmare ended
I have no more debt, though it did pain me so
I’m finally back and no one knew that I left
My flight across the world has finally ended
poem thing,
