Going 'round and 'round in circles, deep in my head.
All this chaos fills my mind, but you couldn't guess.
Permeated in a cloud of fear and constant dread.
Life's a joke and one short game to be second best.
This silk tie, "fits the mold."
Hanging like a noose around my neck.
Greased and Primed for the role.
Burning!
Daily climb out the wreck.
Going 'round and 'round in circles, deep in my head.
All this chaos fills my mind, but you couldn't guess.
Permeated in a cloud of fear and constant dread.
Sinking lower; Getting closer to a frightful edge.
Hello Darling.
How are you?
Anxious?
Does this smile not relieve?
My good deeds are askew.
Thankless!
You truly are so naive.
Time is Illusion.
Love has been disproven.
We're all alone here, playing god.
I'll make you happy.
I'll make it worthwhile.
I'm here to serve you with a smile..

A man that was so vain.
Tragic, "To the T."
Everything was stained.
A distant memory.
She haunted who he was.
In and out of dreams.
No closure had been planned.
A nightmare fantasy.
Ooo babe don’t you know?
These troubles only grow.
And girl there’s no other..
that’d understand these empty hands.
All was left behind.
He could only scream.
Ease the shame inside.
Subdue his inner being.
What became of him?
The man you’ll never see.
Broken from within.
Splitting at the seams.
Ooo babe don’t you know?
These troubles only grow.
And girl theres no other..
that’d understand these empty hands.

Expect this penumbra over you.
Accept the downhearted’s point of view.
Lost in a fabricated care.
Obey the uplifting social snares.
Day to day I see the horizon.
Somewhere far, yet no where to be.
Passing by in our exclusion.
On the loose, but not been set free.
Expect this penumbra over you.
Accept the downhearted’s point of view.
Lost in a fabricated care.
Obey the uplifting social snares.
Fraying thin, O how I unravel.
Once I dreamed with such an urgency.
No more chance. A mild intrusion.
Giving up the freedom I could breathe.
Here I’m alone now.
Split in two.
Gone are the days of “Feelings new.”
Constant foreboding I can not bare.
Trapped in myself and losing air.
Not been set free..
Freedom could breathe.

All in a row.
Problems consume me.
I can't ignore you
or make believe
of that which I dream.
Martyr exclusion.
It's going so well
with you in my head.
Deep away inside
it seems I can't wake up.
Lost within confliction.
Will I be enough?
Sure as hell that I'm afraid
of this place in which I can't escape.

The Waste Land

On my own accord
I seek to find the means.
To cover me in warmth.
A vision I have seen.
There has to be an answer.
The thought has made me weak.
Cynic of such things.
The future’s truly bleak.
There’s nothing even here.
A barren empty void.
I’ve never felt such fear.
A truth I can’t ignore.
Prevailing on a whim.
The sky eternal gray.
Dying roots consume
the earth from which they came.
Nothing ever grows.
I’ve found nothing new.
An emptiness for miles.
A loneliness ensued.
There’s nothing even here.
A barren empty void.
I’ve never felt such fear.
A truth I can’t ignore.
On my own accord
I seek to find the means.
To cover me in warmth.
A vision I have seen.
There has to be an answer.
The thought has made me weak.
An emptiness for miles.
The future’s truly blea..
