Isolations Hold

When the noise fades and the room stops Its then I see what is not And mirrors lie as tears fall in reverse Can these shadows swallow the animal in its path? Or am I stuck with the beast Time ticks by slower than before Each minute is like a constant knocking at my cement-blocked door The sink leaks blood and my veins spill water Neither one realizing it’s living for the other My magnifying glass will burn a hole in this dark But where’s the sun when not even the sky will share I stand-alone and question my own questions It’s me now who will lead me to deception But at the end I know it will all make sense B/c nothings trapped long when everyone wants in So open the lid and let me see Let me see that it’s not all really how it appears to be
