A Man Named Meredith

Built in the darkness

With a hardened hope of holding on

Frozen further out

Be alone for me

In this world, you'll never know

Who could have told her

They were always open to the hurt

Back as a stable reserve

This has grown above me

But a fool would never know

And yet this all

Lends it's parts in awe

We're not all made the same

In plastic forms

Is this home for me?

How could I ever know?

If you've run out of fire

The quiet soothes the summer

On higher ground you could see

The human in myself

Will service ears with selfish stories

A few that I had longed for you to see

A curve in a culture

Like an endless fall into reverse

These words we serve

A gravity donor

Given a way to prove his worth

Sent from a squandering Earth

So refrain from me

Protect what you'll never hold

Drain away from me

You're world I will never know
