A man with no fear no filter
catches you up to speed on his life story
tells you every detail he needs to
it only takes half a cigarette and neon light
to be the man without a fight
On a trail
you can not bail
Don't try to sail
you'll surely fail
Cold and tired
Just want to rest
Time gone like a bird
straight out of his nest
A dream more than dreamt
Not seen but felt
Feeling the purest joy
Unnatural almost
To be so unspoiled

With people loved
But faces unknown

If only
If only

A dream so pure
Makes the real so fake

If only
If only

The image now fading
But the feelings remaining

If only I could forget
That life
That perfect life
Birthed from the ordinary
By the master's hand

More than just binary
Made for a purpose

Wonders its own value
Willing to do more

Prized by the master
Precious in his eyes
Alone in a Crowd
A crowd of emotions
Of emotions not felt
Not felt till it's too late
Too late always too late
Here I worry about the hour
The hour that will come next

Beside me lay all my works
My works that void life's joy

Love is there but set aside
Aside from here aside from now

— The End —
