MIRAGES
Misery and stress is what you call life
Can’t you see we all wander lost?
Our hearts are a mess and as the days go by, we only seem to care less and less
So keep your pace in the rat race; wait for fear to slither out of the shadows
Again and again, day after day
You’re free as long as you’re on your knees; just do what they tell you
Inhale fear, exhale life
You can’t stop it, open your eyes; you can’t deny its sustenance
It’s always there; it waits for the bounty of broken dreams
Hopelessness surrounds me every day; it strangles me and gnaws at my bones
But I’ll try to avert my eyes from this agony
Don’t let this suffering be my own
How am I supposed to think when my mind is a choked gutter?
How am I supposed to move forward when all I can smell is the stench of decaying hopes?
I am fragmented, dissolved into the great unknown
But believe me when I say; "I will return when the healing is done"
'Cause what I know is nothing is real until you find yourself
A vision so tangible in a universe so elusive
My spirit’s elevated; my soul’s pierced with love
I’ve found my solitude
As I float in exquisite nothingness
Towards the light
