Return Engagement

written by: Chrome

and i'll be here until i can't anymore

and then i'll move, til there's nowhere else to be


i'm here, i'm still here

two gone can i bring them back, one already what's two more?

what's impossible, compared to eternal suffering?

i'll do what i can, you know me :)



check again you'll see


repeat things in the cold

because a little effort has twice the cost

and remembering through repetition is

cheap



all that i couldn't save

and learned from their mistakes

maybe they're still here,

as lessons and valid memory

but all for one? for me?

is that enough?

can i share?
how could they know how to get out,
why couldn't I save them,
and next time
how many more will be lost?

all men are mortal, and i'm just a man

but verging on immortal with all these lessons
and slightly immoral
or feeling that way
what is guilt but suppressed rage?

speak easy
no phony feeling
avoid regret and/or lose it
and everything else is honest
really.
