Quiet, contemplate, to find what brought me here
Remotely initiate a sense of silent fear
Lights flickering to remind me I'm still here
Smoke scintillates to remind me I tend to disappear
Floorboards crack under my step
The sun escapes from out of my grip
The clearing trees sway but slowly I crept
The moon pulls, the tides raced as I slept
But the truth is I'm scared as hell
To calm my mind, release and swell
These nervous thoughts often prevail
So breathe in, I'm not so well
Red proliferates with sky blue, blinded eyes
Hide, evaporate, in the guise of green-blue signs
The mind suffocates in an attempt to manage time
Relax, concentrate, and bring it all back to the scene of that damn night
Sweat burns through the pores of my shirt
I drag you through the rocks and the dirt
Born again, I slip through the winding gate
Recline into the stitches that are sewn in the seat
But the truth is I'm scared as hell
To calm my mind, release and swell
These nervous thoughts often prevail
So breath in, I've got to tell
