fade into the distance (that is the world)

with his eyes, wide open
he couldn't be confined any longer
so he packed his things and left

he was tired of what everyone expected of him
it made him sick, it made him dizzy
much like myself
standing motionless was never an option
never a choice for those like us

we believe in the "radical notion"
that no one is more qualified than we are
to decide what our lives will be

so he's off to find
something truthful
something more
something else

my best friend has left me behind
my best friend has disappeared
shared blood runs through our veins

Hope you're getting your kicks,
Best of luck, Benjamin
I'll be with you soon!

♥ Your big brother, August
