And I can't write
another stupid rhyme
I am seeing things, connected in between
I am seeing patterns, blurry schemes
I see flowers, devoured by weeds
I see my metal legs, I see my whole life
truncated since 13
I see all my failures, too many to count
So many days in the dark
thinking it was me
I see everything
I see myself, trying to win
With a new ace on my sleeve!
Throwing light over years and years
Wonderful, harrowing feeling
tonight - but you are by my side

The circle is closing on me
The cycle is complete
Things are going to change
I am afraid, but I am more afraid to stay
here
