Palermo

Scratch through the surface.
Tell me what you find.
I never did give the most popular answer.
I’m great with my words but stutter through pressure.
Honesty seems only existant in ourselves.
But there is nothing but sincerity in my cold words.
I have not but one lie in my millions of truths.

 To say that I am anything but scared would be wrong.
Scared of what you are and how good you can be.

We’re on 2 different ships headed to two neighboring cities.
Mine has been flooded and lit up to light the night.
Yours is just a small town ready to grow.
I’ve been slowly rebuilding as you are simply beginning to build.
But one day our lands will merge to create the greatest city you could ever see.
With the tallest buildings and the brightest lights.
Just like we wanted. Just like we planned.
I saw it from day 1,
but we haven’t been around for long.
And it scares me that this young
we could possibly find our one.
