Across the Hall

Lost without a ride    
It smells  
      like something died    
Now there's no future    
without the loss of pride    
   
Cut off at the hip    
     now  
there's no communication    
     because I've let it slip    
beyond my limitations    
   
        Across the hall    
          can you feel me fall
    The vibration I'm causing    
        not moving at all    
             Covered in scales    
        I cause them to tilt    
          Outweighing the pain    
         of watching me wilt  
   
The train is leaving    
there's no believing    
that this episode    
Is worth retrieving    
   
All these shrinking    
       spaces    
threaten my sanity    
So I have no choice    
but to play with vanity    
   
        Across the hall    
        Can you feel me fall    
        The vibration I'm causing
      Hitting the wall
       White on white
  with two shades of guilt
    Blend into the cracks
    of the halls I've built    
   
Feeling no shame    
for being  
      treated the same    
Contracting the truth    
& passing the blame    
Short-arm the reception    
to make  
 the mood complete    
Changing the perception    
of what it means to cheat    
   
        Across the hall  
          can you feel me fall    
           The vibration I'm causing
    from loosing it all    
            Blocking the view    
          with a holy quilt    
         Cannot absorb    
           all the blood I've split...
