Words spoken
I hear them echo
Not even a worthy sound
Ceilings that are broken
And everything that follows
Seem overwhelming to someone underground
Bit by bit my heart sinks
Into uneasy hollow despair
Second after second the clock ticks
And I am yet again left standing nowhere
The shattered ground
The blazing sky
And voices scream aloud
It bites and gnaws
And tears apart my very core
Revealing nothing but my flaws
A shattered mirror place before
What seems like mistaken light
An unclear image takes its form
Making a whisper of my roar
