Steady Ground

Living in this horror house 
Couldn’t quite figure out how to escape 
On the search for security, buried with no hope in sight 

The walls are caving in 
Roof is black again
All the lights are out 
Desperate for a drought 

Her tears are falling down 
His words were slipping out 
The love gone out the door 
Where rent was due months before 

The foundation’s crumbling now
no concrete for steady ground 
No structure within them 
Just left with a roof caved in
