A blanket of darkness shadows the view
no light what so ever, no dreams which are new
The air it is thinning, stagnant and stale
repetition is building with the strike of a nail
Self inflicted internalization
dodging stones with hesitation
The scent of death it lingers low
I know this place, I used to go
If you can imagine erotic seduction
for a place which offers no satisfaction
Overhead is a plaque with insanity the carving
come on in we've been waiting, your majesty we're starving
No windows or doors for escape once you're in
the screams and sheer terror immediately begin
The deeper you're in you come to find
the lie revealed, you don't know your own mind
Things you experience are best buried inside
you never ever want them out in the light
To run is to fly, yet wings have been broken
and fall to the pile which lays burnt and still smoking
Eyes open eyes closed, the difference is none
crippling fear has long sense begun
Nowhere to hide, naked and exposed
faith carried me out for it is life which I choose
All along it was simple, just reach for his hand
and glide with no effort onto safe land
The more I believe, the more this place fades
awakening more each new day to why I was made
Once in a while I visit when in doubt
never having to stay, for I now know the way out
