Now Leaving Tomorrow Town

from Reticent Alien by Justin Wiles

lyrics

On the way out to Tomorrow Town
You were keeping all our shit safe
Like a guard dog just napping around
At the foot of a beware-laden gate
All the beasts drove right on in
Never asking how you’ve been

You were nursing a wound to your chest
From a chancellor at a school out of state
All the priests clothed you in excess
And said, “Don’t weep, just create”

And you’re only cold to me now
You’re only cold to me now
You’re only cold to me now

In veiny thorns you are all adorned
As we smile and bleed, our outfits torn
And we live this lie to the day we die

On the way home from Tomorrow, on a race
To remain in the same stoic place
We appreciated sin
No one asked us where we’d been

And you’re only gone to me now
You’re only gone to me now
You’re only gone to me now...
