Keep Walking

I can’t understand the shadows in the distance The moon can’t reach these places but the voodoo dolls can I want to move forward but the darkness grabs me I keep my arms to myself No one’s there, no one’s there tonight I can’t understand the merging shapes encompassed I try to hold steady, never feeling ready And the ground in front of me disappears *There is no other choice in the way I have to keep going I have to keep fighting The fear inside No one can here me say Is anyone out there? Can anyone find me? Keep walkin How far must I go now? I don’t really know how Keep walkin Walkin There is nothing here for me to grab a hold The further I stick out my hands, the more I feel this place repel I keep on moving forward, is this really my life? Or am I breathing someone else’s I can’t understand; the air is getting thin I try to keep breathing, try to keep breathing But the hand squeezes from within * keep walking lost my inertia I imploded by my own breath kept on suffocating suffering my own death the walls kept grower taller, I could not see the sky the outer world invaded my reality resuscitate my sanity and bring me to life dig me out of the weight of the negative space give me a rock to grab, I’ll grab and climb, give me a chance I’m done suffocating * 2005
