Favorite Quote:
"Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible." - Frank Zappa


Sit and listen to yesterday’s voices
Sit and listen to yesterday’s stars
Kneel and pray by yesterday’s alter
Embrace your fate with open arms

Enslave yourself to yesterday’s saviour
Enslave yourself to yesterday’s dreams
Sprawl in the darkness of yesterday’s ruin
Let time slip away in tendrils of haze

Numb your life with yesterday’s poison
Numb your life with yesterday’s vice
Fade away like yesterday’s voices
Yesterday’s all that you had in your life

Everybody changes
Everything changes
Everybody changes
But you don’t

Just a simple poem about the inability to let go of the past.
