Tennessee Elegy - My Ruin

Under a black and starry sky\nMake my peace and say goodbye\nDig the grave and watch it die\nBury this in my mind\nWithin a stream of consciousness\nCold is so intense\nMy fingers freeze but my language vents\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nOnce sacred now irreverent\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nI’m unable to mend my fences\nOn top of white and snowy ground\nLose myself in the sound\nMy sorrows I drown\nListen to the wind howl\nThe darkness I feel\nWinters chill in my bones\nMy heart will ache but my words hit home\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nOnce sacred now irreverent\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nI’m unable to mend my fences\nThis is an elegy — A funeral for your sins\nThis is a eulogy — This is your requiem\nI turn and walk away — I’m growing colder by the day\nI turn and walk away\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nOnce sacred now irreverent\nThe unintended consequences of complicated friendships\nI’m unable to mend my fences\nThis is an elegy — A funeral for your sins\nThis is a eulogy — This is your requiem
