an empty room I fill it With my thoughts. I get to thinking About everything. I stand among many Receiving awards Reciting speeches I must win one every day And the speeches change, Like the wind. There's never any faces, Not even my own Ain't that strange? Just the Splintered visions Breaking through With spears Of emotion. I guess that The image Isn't even important: It's the feeling, The sensations, The prayers, The mantras, And endless dreams. It's an idealistic bubble. Which I could Live in forever, But I'd never get anything done. I get to looking At my watch. Only thirty minutes has passed, How can that be possible? I've already travelled to the serene corners of my desires. I've dipped my toes in lustful wants. I've soared to pinnacles of success, In thirty minutes. Then the perpetual Smog of stagnant English gloom Returns to me In my Utopic chamber, Bursting my bubble. I hone back to the moment, and then I put my pen Down to paper.

Alone tonight
an empty room I fill it With my thoughts. I get to thinking About everything. I stand among many Receiving awards Reciting speeches I must win one every day And the speeches change, Like the wind. There's never any faces, Not even my own Ain't that strange? Just the Splintered visions Breaking through With spears Of emotion. I guess that The image Isn't even important: It's the feeling, The sensations, The prayers, The mantras, And endless dreams. It's an idealistic bubble. Which I could Live in forever, But I'd never get anything done. I get to looking At my watch. Only thirty minutes has passed, How can that be possible? I've already travelled to the serene corners of my desires. I've dipped my toes in lustful wants. I've soared to pinnacles of success, In thirty minutes. Then the perpetual Smog of stagnant English gloom Returns to me In my Utopic chamber, Bursting my bubble. I hone back to the moment, and then I put my pen Down to paper.
