Through the eye


The map show a world no one can see

In the streets of number one

Still stands suffering

 

Are the answers in books?

Does truth come from looks?

Or is it how we feel 

That makes the world so concealed?

 

Fear takes hold of  the hand that shivers

Thoughts of a home flow through like rivers

 

But those who seek a single exercise

Take for granted what it means to be alive
