Trapped
New
To everyone and everything
Over and over again
No past
No present
No future
Just the empty promise
That yesterday will be forgotten
Today will soon end
And tomorrow will never come
Alone
Like a hawk from above
I watch them file in line
Praying their dreams will come true
All different
Yet exactlythe same
Eyes like fingers accuse me of doing wrong
Whispers leak from lips and travel to others
A deer in the headlights
Trapped
The enemy is closing in on me
Forcing me into a dark corner where i wait for you
But you dont come
So i move on
Drawn to the hope of a new start
Like a moth to the flame
Only to find nothing is what i expect
And i wonder
Will anything ever be...
