Tonight was the first time
For the next-to-last time
I missed the early signs
So now I’m sitting here
Just wishing here
That time can make it
All more clear
But I’m losing
In this godforsaken maze
Like quicksand
These godforsaken days
As I focus frown
I write it down
Then life comes back
It’s time to drown
Tell me
Where is the other way
I hear you
Like silence everyday
Left to stay right here
I will die right here
If I play right here
You know that I will sway
I know you love to feel
But what is real
The ego is what
What I need to kill
See the duel – It’s so unreal
So damn cruel – I made you ra-real
These ways. . .
No longer can I lie
These days. . .
The innocent are crucified
