uncertainty...not knowing...
life silhouetted around
when will i become part of it?
to live normal...like what's on tv
please let me go...
grappling and grasping at the shadows
are any of them real
is it just me...coming closer
to the edge of insanity
mama...i just killed a man...
nothing really matters...or does it?
to escape from reality
letting the easiness of it all slide over me...
a flood of music pushes me down to the bottom
of my body...pushing pressing
suffocating but keeping me alive
counting the days as they go by
do the bad things always multiply the older you get?
am i really that old
i feel it...
no time it flows too fast
building my dreams
watching them drip from my hands
us...no place for us...
not accepted anywhere completely
uncertainty...not knowing
fate? is it all decided already?
i sit and watch the shadows
a silhouette floats by
wanting to join
i reach to touch you
brush your tears away
why are you crying? i reach and reach
but you are only a shadow
a trick of the mind
grasping grapling gasping
i don't want to live like this
please let me join the throng
be a part of the beating pulse
or escape from reality
