Cheyenne

Oh drowning child, my how much you’ve grown I guess they fed you promises while keeping you alone Forced down a canopy of dying dreams Winds of ruin masquerading as a breeze This barren space, your hiding place These bloodied hands will hide my face When I’m gone, will it remain the same? I can’t stay, can’t choose this pain It was never your choice to make Silence your voice in wake of noise they quake Staring through empty rooms To the opaque window panes A cursed tree, they made your enemy you They say blood is thicker than water Then gave up on their daughter They say blood is thicker than water Maybe that’s why she sank Maybe that’s why she sank This barren space, your hiding place These bloodied hands will hide my face When I’m gone, will it remain the same? I can’t stay, can’t choose this pain She placed her feet upon the tracks Took one final breath Watched the light, approaching her Freedom in the death She was never coming home She was never coming home
