We Thought We Said Perfection

Plead for peace
Minds grasping thin air
When we float a hundred feet
And sink a thousand to the least

I'm destroyed by you
And all of our wittiness
There's no gap of beating
No serious word spoken

Where's the salvation
When we need it most
Softly mumbled along lips
Of irony and betrayal

You called in for a bit
And claimed you were right
Please prove me wrong
And follow home, through and through
