shuttered away the break of day
all too familiar when whisped this way
dreading a chance at finding my soul
then i lost a cause to go
streaming through the breaches of life
without a purpose or a right
to see what i could show

is there a dusk in all this light
oh no, please god, tear apart my strife
i've striven to be as cold as the moon
then glistened in, with cultivating swoon
a bird, or not; my heart removed

this ugly bag of snakes
need be laid out straight
too much time has been wasted
on the sorrows of my hatred
why not focus on the good
all the things that your heart could

there was a time when i would laugh
"why have fun, i'll let love pass"
now i see all the joy
you could bring to this boy
if i learn to REALLY thwart
to see within my open heart

i really like that and can relate...
