shove it into a corner and push it away
the voice that eerily chimes his name
Squeeze your eyes shut and leap away-
you can't face another day
run through a corridor- frozen in time
jump through windows and fight the pain
creep through streets, whishpering his name
red eyes glaring throughout the rain
PAUSE- catch your breath
look back, because you know you have to see
is he there looking at me?
seeing through what you've become
hissing blame and shame
fighting to survive this game
knowing you won't ever change
feeling the worlds hate.
PAUSE- catch my breath
You can slip away
but you won't forget my name
PAUSE-catch your breath
Run, dash away
flee-once again
know you can't pretend
fly through miles of clouds
feel free until you
PAUSE-
walk up the stairs of blame
walk through the corridor of shame
walk to
the corner.
What do we see?
