FOUR WALLS

FOUR WALLS

I’m right where I’ve always been

Backed into this corner with no way out

I look up and feel dizzy

I look down and I know that’s the only direction I’m goin’

Look left and see her face

Look right and see the edge

What is left to do?

What is there to accomplish?

The agony that is life

I’m dripping with despair

Drenched in damnation

And being shot at with uselessness

Now I remember my winter

My horrid winter

Some say never give in

Some say never say never

Words mean nothing

I can’t say what you mean to me

I feel like I’m slowly drifting off into space

You wanna pull me back

But there’s no line

I’m sandwiched between four walls

That are slowly, but surely, closing in on me

Now I remember my winter

My horrid winter

Think I’ll just close my eyes and wait for the end
