Darkness feels
From ear to ear
Cold and warm
Soft and numb
Flying freely into space
What have I become?

Stars pass through my eyes
And light exits through my brain
Time stands still in my ear
Tasting all the drops of rain
The world is upon me once again

And what are hearts?
Not meant to break
And what is love?
Not meant to take
Will someone please, walk me down this way?

The never-ending corridor
White walls
With infinite doors
No ceiling
And no floors

Walk with me, hand in mine
And show me where I can find time
My hand on the ****
Turn it for me and open wide
With your lonely key
You’ve kept inside

What a world behind this door
Hell or paradise
I’m not sure
Depression in expressive waves
Dimly lit and Fading away
Invoking all emotion
The motions law that you made
Gravity is something gray
My heart slows to a shallow beat
I pull the ground from my feet
And I find that no one is here but me

Love is a world far away
Passion exists only today
Chemical seduction
My body’s abduction
A natural imbalanced high
Give me my drug
And **** the pain
Straight from to vein
And to the brain
Addiction bleeds from the heart
Spilling out across the sea
The door opens from behind
And once again, I know me

Darkness feels warm and home
Alone in space again I go
Microcosm in my mind
The heart dies with the fading stars
The mind goes with each passing day
Alone to float across
An empty shell that once
One day maybe something more
Till you come out
And push me through the door
