There is no longer a place that is real. Not even in my own home do I feel. Its all cold. As if old man winter has a hold on the thermostat, and its as if the window is open and we cant get it closed because our arms are too busy holding our knees to our chest and we cant ever get any rest because at night, none of this feels right. Its all a little too big and were a little too small, and our jump back to reality is more of a fall. All we want is redemption, but there's none at all. So we climb up these ladders that go in reverse, and the song of the dead is the one we rehearse, and we swim in the sadness so widely dispersed. Is there no end to this curse?
