walking
walking its what i do
when i need to cry
when i want to get high
when i look around theres nobody
living life like i do
theres never anyone real around you
and so i walk i walk so i
dont break the lieing face of some bitch
i leave and walk cause i start to
feel the twitch
sometimes my path leads to meditation
clarity and prayer
but times like now it leads to a fight
a fight with myself not to walk right
off this overpass
just to step out and lean foward
but i cant i save myself at the last second grabbing the railing
cause i think i must want to live
the thought that im too much a coward
i walk i suppose to get empowered
i sit along side this freeway of lifes lies
both along side literally an figuritively
and i cry icry so hard for those id abandon
and even for those i feel have abandon me
i give my soul to myself as lifes breath in
my chest does stop
caught on this walk in a lost circle
theres no one who cares or who gives a shit
i walk tonight cause my mind takes flight
the realities of where ive been
and still yet where i must go
im alone its dark and cold but twilight
engulfs me in protective cloaked darkness
they wont see me cause i wont let them
i walked out on the last of the freinds
i truly believed in and so here my walk begins
walking through glass fragments again
rings of fire and hurdles that just get higher
so for peace i walk
when i need to cry
when i want to get high
when i look around theres nobody
living life like i do
theres never anyone real around you
and so i walk i walk so i
dont break the lieing face of some bitch
i leave and walk cause i start to
feel the twitch
sometimes my path leads to meditation
clarity and prayer
but times like now it leads to a fight
a fight with myself not to walk right
off this overpass
just to step out and lean foward
but i cant i save myself at the last second grabbing the railing
cause i think i must want to live
the thought that im too much a coward
i walk i suppose to get empowered
i sit along side this freeway of lifes lies
both along side literally an figuritively
