AND HERE I AM

AND HERE I AM

And here I am
Once again surrounded by the greenest of fields
In a endless hall of windows
That has no doors
No place to rest

And there I go
Only now finding these fragments of days long passed
In a world that gives no second chances
A world that has no soul
No chance of peace

And dare I say
Once again stuttering over my hollow words
In a place where I do not belong
The only place I have
No place to rest

And rest I need
Only rest will set me free from these chains so large and heavy
In a twisted way that keeps me coming back for more
I will never again get more
Those days are done

And now I breath
Once the stale air has filled my lungs of staler death
Then I make my feeble legs get up
To bring my coarse feet
To view the dying day

And so I live
Only for the false promise of light that dissipated through the silence
Silence that destroys and laughs and laughs
Laughing straight at me
I laugh too

AND HERE I AM
