A

SAFE INSIDE

In the Darkened shroud of morning
Simplified in face and stature.
Blessing in the storming
Sweetness of a subtle feature.
Alone and safe inside
Without worry, without knowing
who's been cast aside.
Twisted down, escape to rest
I will writhe in my December
These crafted understandings
Smother the citadel defending.
(The comfort, effort in the end)
Alone and safe inside
(Without worry)
Who's been kept alive
(Without knowing)
Learned, learned
I love the air here
And I learned, learned
I love the roar in my ears.
I satiate this urge of mine;
I substitute the urge to hide
Alone, alone and safe inside.
I move on again through
A vicious cycle without end,
Seeking distance for security.
A desperate act to remain free.
A balance point cannot be found.
This whole thing will
come crashing down.
Down! Down!
My fear will drag me down.
Can I trust in what I feel?
Praying that this time it's real.
Feel the strain!
All this times been spent in vain,
MY SHAME!
open wounds that still remain,
DECAY!
As my faith is stripped away,
I'LL STRAY!
The final price I have to pay.
Digging in deeper still
The hollowness I yearn to fill
The story always ends the same
The cycle soon begins again.
As reality washes away
the faded memories of daylight.
This is my escape
Realization of my mind's own deceit
(Perception slips away)
Lulled into a fools paradise
Words mislead again.
The agony of imaginary,
sins and fears.
(The truth of suffering)
Buried dreams they shadow me,
I feel it's all been wasted
(Dreams that shatter me)
Break my dreams to free my soul
because I won't even notice.
(Dreams to free my soul)
Disintegration of the ego
with what this mind creates.
(False idea of self)
The cessation of continuity
and becoming Truly enlightened.
I will not remain enslaved
This world's transparency
I see right through
(I walk alone)
Someone free me from
heaven torn asunder
Full of empty promises to
be there if I wonder
(Alone and wandering)
I Scream out against the glass.
The sound reflected is unable to escape.
(I'm desperate to really connect)
Lashing out at words that fail to appear
(Bound In Silence)
The Failure Of Sound (never learned)
Instincts urge on
As the mind creates its own obstacles,
Waging internal war,
Between the objects and the abstract.
Hear the Eloquence of the inner voice
The poetry of the condemned.
The stream of consciousness
Must be understood.
Because we're alone
and safe inside
(Without worry)
Who's been kept alive
(Without knowing)
