Looking
Malik Hayes
Looking for the one thing for me It lost me a long time ago Seeing where it could even be

The name, I wish I would have known The tunes in my ear won't leave Too sad, my memory is low
Name, what was it, I do believe? The lyrics always are with me The tip of my tongue, my pet peeve
It always fills my heart with glee For the thing I need in my heart I can listen when I drink tea
It is truly a piece of art Looking for it, can’t be apart
I'll Rebuild You a Perfect Image
Terra
Glossy and feverless Your heart catches on a splinter Shifting and effortless
You do not let it hinder Your progress, it will take An eternity to rebuild To rebuild you to your finest point Is a promise I won't break And in saddened state, distilled I'll achieve your promise, cracking at the joints
With hammer, and nail With lightning and metal
I'll make it look effortless as I will never fail I'll reshape every inch until you settle I'll reclaim all the loyalty I'll reclaim it, tooth and bone I'll reclaim it for my goals
You will be reborn, soon you will see The sinking water cannot ever make me be alone As I cover your growing holes
The sea, I'll fight it With the last of my breath
Your image, a perfect reminder as I sit By the ocean bed It will choke out your body As I stand and wait
To rebuild you in every way I'll find again your body I'll stand there and challenge fate With hammer, nail, and metal, I'll crumble at the sight of your body’s decay
