an ode to a friend

I want to give you this (huh?)
A gift from me, to you
Oh, thank you
Well?
What is it for?
It's your own personal escape button, hehe
Wow, uh, what does that mean?
Well, just press it, it makes a noise
(Click)
(Help me)

Icarus sits, in blissful unknowing
That his favorite creation was not built to last
Day and night, they would soar past the clouds
But alas

Wax wings melt to dust, the connection is severed
What you said left me crushed
(What have you done?)
I beg, and I bargain- could it not last forever?
I plead, to deaf ears, to no God

But, if

I could not have you then why must they take you
From all of the things that I knew?
After all of the wasted years, how could I stay in this place?
Living lies that I thought were the truth

Time keeps on ticking, my lips I keep licking
At the thought of you, one bite and I'm through
As I twiddle my fingers, I let the thought linger
That all that I need, is
You

(I miss you)
