Inside a shell
Nothing to do
But drown in thought
Rock back and forth
Shivering from the cold
Can’t see my hands
To blow into them
Begging, please
Inside a hollow
Oh, to hear a sound
Other than my voices
Hard to grasp
What’s being said
And what’s just an echo
Begging, please
In pride, I starve
Something to keep
It’s hard to tell
Who I am today
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Begging you
Please
Waiting inside
How long to know
The final verdict
It’s warm for a cell
I guess it’s not the cold
That makes me shiver
Breathing in
Holding inside
Pressure gauging limits
Walls don’t seem to satisfy
How heavy can it get
Before I break?
Patience swinging back and forth
Betrayed by his halo
Breathing out
In sloth, I crave
Weary of this journey
It’s hard to say
When I last cared
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Begging you
Please
Once again
It’s all temporary
Death’s a cigarette
With life as a light
Just suck in the smoke
I’ll try not to cough,
But it’s something hard to swallow
How divine
Now and then
It’s reoccurring
Steadily, like a pendulum
Reaching for me
In this pit
Create another day
Where heroes become victims
How mundane
In bitter hatred, I wait
To rip up this tree
Until you can see
Just how heavy it is
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Begging you
Please
Please
Nothing to do
But drown in thought
Rock back and forth
Shivering from the cold
Can’t see my hands
To blow into them
Begging, please
Inside a hollow
Oh, to hear a sound
Other than my voices
Hard to grasp
What’s being said
And what’s just an echo
Begging, please
In pride, I starve
Something to keep
It’s hard to tell
Who I am today
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Begging you
Please
Waiting inside
How long to know
The final verdict
It’s warm for a cell
I guess it’s not the cold
That makes me shiver
Breathing in
Holding inside
Pressure gauging limits
Walls don’t seem to satisfy
How heavy can it get
Before I break?
Patience swinging back and forth
Betrayed by his halo
Breathing out
In sloth, I crave
Weary of this journey
