The journey suddenly ends With truth almost in hand A truce of silence now put in place A final veil of silk remains Glimpses of truth dance on the threads The journey came to a rightful end Others took notice My quest was done The point was made That’s all that was needed to be done The journey came to the right end One might make a difference Uniquely my value shined bright Smiling I thought what a perfect night My imperfections made it so alright The journey had to stop that night I wonder what they saw that night It hard to see one’s own light Especially on that night For rage blinded me that night It had to stop right there that night **What gave them the ******* right?** They hung me on a cross of pain Just to see what I might do Once again I paid the price for all of you The journey should never have been needed A smile led to laughter that filled the void Turning I waved goodbye to them Surely I must be staking raving mad One can only hope and dream Insanity is a tough cross to bear

The price of insanity
The journey suddenly ends With truth almost in hand A truce of silence now put in place A final veil of silk remains Glimpses of truth dance on the threads The journey came to a rightful end Others took notice My quest was done The point was made That’s all that was needed to be done The journey came to the right end One might make a difference Uniquely my value shined bright Smiling I thought what a perfect night My imperfections made it so alright The journey had to stop that night I wonder what they saw that night It hard to see one’s own light Especially on that night For rage blinded me that night It had to stop right there that night **What gave them the ******* right?** They hung me on a cross of pain Just to see what I might do Once again I paid the price for all of you The journey should never have been needed A smile led to laughter that filled the void Turning I waved goodbye to them Surely I must be staking raving mad One can only hope and dream Insanity is a tough cross to bear
