Looking for something familiar, some landmark to rattle is memory
Order to placate the chaos inside his head
Still, no matter how much he looked, there was nothing
That was worse than any Hollywood boogeyman ever

Floating through the air
Laughing with unadulterated joy
Yielding finally to gravity, you fell
Into my waiting arms
Now you soar without me needing to catch you
God, I miss that job

Maybe it was the squirrel had had enough
Or maybe Natasha finally got her way
Or maybe Mister Peabody was sick of being second fiddle
So all we know is Bullwinkle wasn’t around anymore
Everyone mourned as they ate their venison jerky

Plunging into the words
And swimming the story
Going deeper and deeper
Eventually forced to come up for air and a dose of reality

Removing the petals, one by one
Oh how the flower sheds its beauty
Soon he clutches just the thorny stem
Eventually, the bleeding will stop, but the hurting…

Vistas expanded inside her mind
It took her breath away with the possibilities
Everything was there ready for her to take it. She could see it all
Which is why it was so sad when she walked away.

The laser fire burned the landscape around Gordon
Racing to cover he drew a bead on its source
Opening fire himself he silenced the combatant
Only that marked his own position. Gordon felt a burn then nothing evermore
Pushing past his eternal vigil, the rest of the platoon didn’t have time to mourn

Put everything into your suitcase known as life
And don’t leave anything behind. Cram it inside.
Can’t take it with you? Sure you can.
Knowledge and experiences are the best luggage ever.

Division was always Vivian’s strong suit
It didn’t matter if it was numbers or people
Vivian could separate the goats from the sheep
It didn’t matter what defined goat or sheep
Determined to put her skills to use, Vivian turned to politics
Except she found being a pollster much better to her liking
