I like living in the ruins There used to be life here The halls are familiar While the walls are scarred The foliage consuming once vibrant and buzzing spaces The light shining through the cracks Dimly floating in To touch remnants of what was is hauntingly beautiful I like living in the ruins There used to be life here And the world outside is foreign It is loud, crowded, lonely The time goes by and everything, everyone changes I remain a stranger A Neanderthal whose senses are overloaded Unable to handle the noise I like living in the ruins There used to be life here While its absences breaks my heart Solitude is a comfort

There used to be life here.
I like living in the ruins There used to be life here The halls are familiar While the walls are scarred The foliage consuming once vibrant and buzzing spaces The light shining through the cracks Dimly floating in To touch remnants of what was is hauntingly beautiful I like living in the ruins There used to be life here And the world outside is foreign It is loud, crowded, lonely The time goes by and everything, everyone changes I remain a stranger A Neanderthal whose senses are overloaded Unable to handle the noise I like living in the ruins There used to be life here While its absences breaks my heart Solitude is a comfort
This came from me trying to explain to a friend why i wasn’t interested in going out
