Abscence
I have this strange ability
No one seems to suffer from
An ability that keeps me from sanity
It's the ability to leave your side
Without remorse or guilt
The ability to live alone
The ability to never love
Caccons burst open in normal men
Springing forth an angel of self worth
19 years have passed and I am still a larva
To cowardly to retreat into my own metamorphosis
To scared to commit to hibernation
I've always wanted a way in
Now I beg for a way out
Contrasting my smiling face
With the tears flowing in my mind
You'll find a soul gasping for air
Drowning in the thoughts of a broken man
