Vivid thoughts of illusion Haunt my mind From the inside out My life is carved in the pages And I see no light at the end Because these are the foul chapters The torment seeps from the pages and binding I am enticed to read Page by page The words are singing like a choir of angels Harmonising my name Their symphony is where I belong So sink my head in the water And watch the air leave my mouth If I were to leave Just vanish from the earth I'll never leave a footprint To show what I was worth Ive never been a man of faith A lesson never learnt
With hands that dim a diamonds shine How could I know if my desires right The foul chapters Are my past the present and my future What I am All I've done The faces of familiar people So tell my why I'd ever wish to run I'm learning to understand just what makes a man I'm piecing together The sign in the lines The last line of the story is to be written Renewal with a new perspective Or lifeless in the dirt Choices paint our lives When all is said an done Take me away Where madness and bliss Are accepted as one
