13 Months

Where have you been, when did you go?
Didn't seem so long ago that you left home
Now the ground splits open wide
Leaving me here stuck inside all on my own

We can't find rhyme or reason
To this a change in seasons
I mar a shattered wasteland
Nothing left where I stand
Try to escape these places
Surrounding unfamiliar faces
Turn my head to the sky
13 months have passed me by

Was the road so goddamned rough?
That you never had enough to just get by
But now I look into your eyes
That make a bleak disguise for what you hide

What's said is understated
A life lived masqueraded
They always need reminding
The shape of truth and daydreams
The fairytales and folklore
That we all live and die for
But all you did was survive
The 13 months that you're alive

I see you 13 years from now
And I have to wonder how you did so well
Left to ponder in the past
Knowing good things never last, I may as well
