Treehouse Promises

<br>This night`s final breath <br>Wraps a man within it`s breast <br>Heartbeat stops at last and with it <br>The gathered sigh <br><br>Regard me a boy <br><br>Fate lies ahead <br>Only to distance us <br>Everyone so dear <br>Must fall away <br><br>Pages turn each day <br>And so we pledge <br>Treehouse promises <br>Burn one by one <br><br>Those who will comfort me <br>In the end <br>Are not but strangers now <br>And there`s no hope <br>For brothers now, lovers now <br>Will all disconnect <br><br>In this apathy <br>Already I`ve lost brethren <br>Trial <br>Every transgression is further endearing me<br>Needed and tearing my insides apart<br>I look in your eyes and the kinship illuminates <br>So soon I will see but space <br>Filled with regret and the loss unspoken <br>You`ll continue down the fucking street <br>Without a word <br><br>You take it away <br>You take it away <br>But the image is burned in my eyes <br>But the vision remains in my mind <br>And in your pity I`ve been left behind <br>But this is the way it has always been <br>This is the way it shall always be <br>Love shall corrupt <br>Friendships shall perish <br>Distance shall kill me <br>Slowly with each silent step
