~Repeat to Begin~
She has a longing
To be at ease
And to fall away
Just leave in peace and dark
For as long as it takes
For the world to forget
And to forget the world
To start again
But when forgotten she is most alone
But only to gain strength
And build her walls
To hold that strength
Learning again the feelings
Of happiness, of pain, and of solitude
The knowing of these
Will weaken and chip away at her walls
And the strength will slowly drain
Until she’s completely helpless and pathetic
Wallowing in self loathing and fear
Wishing to forget once more
But ever knowing the endless cycle
She knows only one way out at long last
She could end the repeating forever…
Only a voice, just as lonely
And just as pained
Calls out and pulls her back
And she longs
To keep her wit, long enough
To help this voice forget
And when the task is finished,
She’ll move along
And cease the pointless circle
And cause a beginning in another.
~Break for 8~
Take one to dull
Bring the pain down from full
Put it in your hand and throw it back
But pain’s strength is like a bull
Take three and the numb still lacks
Its gone for a moment, and again attacks
Gripping the place in agony and fear
You retake the steps, to give the tension slack
Take five and feel it near
The shutting down and the drear
Fluttering heart and shaking
Hand too weak and unable to steer
Take eight and feel the unmaking
Pulling your eyes closed, with dreams for the taking
Swerve and sway, movements faking
It’s the real motion of your soul breaking
look at this.
Stare in curiousity
ask to look away
but hold your eyes
bewildered,
and stunned.
smiles cracking.
Blidness resored
darkness engulfing again
closed useless eyes
water and fire at the same moment
melt away voices and thought
sitting, lolling in unknown
staring inward, gone,
and forever lost
