Dredg - Convalescent

Convalescent

This lonely old man at heart,
Resting gray hairs,
On wrinkled arms,
With nothing but,
A stool to hold up his back
Skinny legs,
With Japanese mileage,
Crossed at the ankles,
Hes unaware
Maybe youve never seen it,
Maybe youve never been through it,
Its the only way,
To understand it.
Unaware ,
Of this surroundings,
Youth in packs,
Swarming,
Like wolves to a fresh kill,
The scent attacks,
Hes just scared,
About dying.
Maybe youve never seen it,
Maybe youve never been through it,
Its the only way,
To understand it.
Save your clever statements,
Brave your severed view of it,
Its the only way,
To understand it.
