Veneer

Some of them are gone

And some will remain

Far beyond the edges

Of your dreams

Do you understand

That living

Is not what it seems?

Don't hold out much hope

When you're in the thick

Of it all

For once it's not me

That can feel

Nothing at all

Lean on my shoulder

And say nothing at all

I'm looking backwards

Flicking though myself

Like I'm someone else

You in that great divide

Sparring with your pride

No one can decide for you

If he was the final straw

You said you wanted more

Than money ever gave to you

Where do we go from here

The climb, or a thin veneer?

A thin veneer

A thin veneer

A thin veneer
