a need to isolate like leaves that won't fall
communal theft it's moving down it's colored reston brown
planned in shadows
suburban sprawl, cultureless, shameless, pull me back
i don't think i've ever seen
a forest with so few trees
where roots are paved
ot praised
it's not safe
where status is based on possession
the culdesac built on hollow ground is lonely now
stand in shadows
where families aren't friends and marriage is bondless
pull me back,
i don't think i've ever seen
a forest with so few trees
where roots are paved
ot praised
it's not safe
looking back
on all i've touched and seen
what's been left ingrained
to lack identity
remains
what will grow
and if you reach you fail
to embrace that
i will challenge you
and your impatience
a need to repeat and take without need
white flight it's now soaring now
and it's looking down
cast no shadows,
pure despair poverty is ruthless
