Caving In
by Michael Romani
Looking around
Sometimes it seems
That what we've found
Is far less than our dreams
Heaven is caving in
It's a sinkhole
That we're living in
Spiraling out of control
Served up
On hot plates
With a sip of our cup
We know this is the wrong place
Am I right?
Or, am I right?
Our best chance is the good fight
To somehow get this thing right
Without too much drama
Despite an aptitude for trauma
It seems we're all faking it
Hoping for our chance at making it
Pushing to be so much better
Than who I really am
Getting myself together
Not settling for the flim flam
Heaven is caving in
It's a sinkhole
That we're living in
Gotta get it back under control
Tagging the walls
Dropping with a freefall
A sign of life that I was here
And meant more than my mother's tears
You know I'm going to learn to be
A somehow, some way better me
Eyes in the light is my philosophy
Wearing truth as my badge of integrity
