Once upon a time was a fool who thought he'd find
Hoo, hoo
Once upon a time was a fool who thought he'd find
Purpose in his life along the way
Don't you run and hide from the truth you decide
Everything that lives is gone to waste
Hoo, hoo
Hoo, hoo

Hoo
Once upon a time was a fool who thought he'd find
Purpose in his life along the way
Don't you run and hide from the truth you decide
Everything that lives is gone to waste

KxLLswxtch - WASTE  (sped-up)

I rise, not for breath, but to pull you below,
To the marrow where your certainty won't grow.
You, a whisper sewn in skin and bone—
Hard to follow, easier to dethrone.

Too late for words, we wait through the pale—
Dawn flickers like a match, fragile and frail.
They told you I was dulled and golden-flecked,
But gold’s just rust they haven’t checked.

Each hour marked, I’m dressed for the vanishing—
Every return, it’s just another reckoning.
Each breath I take, I wear like a mourning veil,
Every farewell’s just another funeral trail.

I don’t climb for air—I descend to trace
The fault lines carved in your sacred space.
Outside, the lawn is cluttered with hushed decay—
Leaves without names, and no branches to stay.

Each hour marked, I’m dressed for the vanishing—
Every return, it’s just another reckoning.
Each breath I take, I wear like a mourning veil,
Every farewell’s just another funeral trail.

The Funeral

Ringing Silence (3)

It didn’t 
Dawn on me
Until too late
That when things happen
It’s better to wait
Than to say
What comes to mind
But you only get that
When you look behind
Where you were
But now you know
For sure
So it’s a regret
About something
That made her upset
I should have let
Things go
But don’t you know
That’s not what I did
I should have kept it inside
But I opened the lid
And watched
As love died
It was as if 
I stood aside
And saw what 
I had done
You only get one chance
And now it was done

It Was Done

You stopped, watched
I was the face of the new
Unfolding, the touch of my hand on you 
Stealing in vain
Invading memories
Elusive sanity
Was it you all along?
Allow me
To build Rome and a sense of beauty
Only for you to see
To fold the world and our history 
In words and melodies  
Allow Me
