A Quiet Place

Trying to hide in a quiet place
All the noise can suffocate
Looking for peace of mind
Spinning in circles running out of time
In a dark room all alone
Walls feel safe like a womb
Hiding from the world storms are closing in
Ready to leave this realm before it begins

Hear the screams echoing
Resonating in a space between two drums
Chambers filled with emptiness
Cold rivers flow to the beat
Rhythm of sorrow slowly decays
This storm is here to stay
What's inside can't be real
Helping hands cannot feel

Foundation crumbling pressure collapsing
Killing all that's left nothing to regret
Can't hang on must stay strong
Like magic watch it all
Disappear fear the fall
Faster to the end watch it all burn
For the time has come lessons not learned
Species of habit no control
Wrath created lost the soul

We buried all the lies nothing can disguise
The zombie in your eyes too late to compromise

Watch your inner light fade from over stimulation
Can't make sense of a panic fueled situation
Mother earth knows her way around
Even when we can't be found
