What's Missing?
Awake
I didn't mean to be
I was asleep and she was standing next to me
For the first time in a year, in a dream, we had been reunited
She said, I'd love to go with you but sadly I was not invited
I had been here before
It's the old house from when I was nine
But there was people on the roof, and cars around it, one on fire
And as we walked into the house we saw the group of dull attenders
Every one of them greeting me with how are you, have you surrendered
It made me paranoid
But I was curious to know what had become
Of the upstairs room, that I would play with all my toys in when I was young
It had been turned into a theatre and the guests had filled it up
Every one of them greeting me with Sir, we haven't seen you in months
It made me cold
And gave me hope, and I thought that someday I could claim it
Then they asked me wheres the pretty woman who they knew I'd came with
I ran down and scanned the rooms, the halls had emptied out at dawn
And I didn't see her, didn't know her, so I knew that she was gone
That made me scared
So I went went out the back, I needed air, and to get away
But the backyard had stretched out and been renovated, and now it had a maze
With towering silver walls, covered with pictures of people I had met
Memories of some marvelous times that I had made before I left
I made it out
And once I did, I saw she stood in front of me, beneath the hollow streets light
"I didn't know where you had gone" I said to her, she didn't respond
Then I looked around to see the neighbors outside, each one was there to watch
It made me nervous, now I knew I never should have come here in the first place
They all circled in around me right on the cue received from their grace
She grabbed my hands, I looked around, and soon her voice turned into hissing
When she said
Never mind
I didn't mean to be
I was asleep and she was standing next to me
For the first time in a year, in a dream, we had been reunited
She said, I'd love to go with you but sadly I was not invited
I had been here before
It's the old house from when I was nine
But there was people on the roof, and cars around it, one on fire
And as we walked into the house we saw the group of dull attenders
Every one of them greeting me with how are you, have you surrendered
