Angels of Light - Everything Is Good Here / Please Come Home

What You Were

Were you asleep in the chair
As the sound cracked the air
And the scent of the fire
Drifted out through the hall?

Did I sleep in your bed
Or the room next to yours?
Did the drugs cloud my head
And so leave me unclear?

Right here's what you were
But here's how I'll remember you

With your robe open wide
And your mouth to the side
They could see where you clutched
Your golden son's image

They could see how you tried
To regain your ridiculous pride
But you failed, then you died
With your dignity laid open

Right here's where you disappear
But here's how I'll always see you

You ride in your white Cadillac
You ride through the crowd like a warrior
But they turn and look down, and they walk away
From your beautiful life and your absurd and malignant expectations
