Tennessee Elegy

Under a black and starry sky

Make my peace and say goodbye

Dig the grave and watch it die

Bury this in my mind

Within a stream of consciousness

Cold is so intense

My fingers freeze but my language vents

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

Once sacred now irreverent

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

I’m unable to mend my fences

On top of white and snowy ground

Lose myself in the sound

My sorrows I drown

Listen to the wind howl

The darkness I feel

Winters chill in my bones

My heart will ache but my words hit home

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

Once sacred now irreverent

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

I’m unable to mend my fences

This is an elegy - A funeral for your sins

This is a eulogy - This is your requiem

I turn and walk away - I’m growing colder by the day

I turn and walk away

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

Once sacred now irreverent

The unintended consequences of complicated friendships

I’m unable to mend my fences

This is an elegy - A funeral for your sins

This is a eulogy - This is your requiem
