Retreat
Uploaded by Nosferatu on Oct 25, 2004
All I ever wanted from life,
Was to watch the sun rise and fall.
But I can only bow to the fife,
And know I shall never grow tall
I live in a world of regret
Steeped in the mud of the rest
I have only had time to bet
On a future behind a desk
I hope for an hour of pride
Sleeping in natures confines
Where I will take life in stride
And only owe scenic lies
So close to a simplistic being
I am trapped in an industrial swirl
With only wealth for feeling
Instead of natures soft curl.
