Loose

Give in and start missing out

Dreaming on an endless rout

Merely colors barely seen

Give up asking what about

 

Let freedom pull your gaze away

And stumble upon the way back

No care given to what they say

Fears are nothing near what's at play

 

Eerie whims of knowing gone

Dark delusions left alone

Never too far from the trough

Friendly face on any stone

 

Wasting no time waiting by

Closing the windows on before

New confused space to occupy

Taking control of every floor

 

Empty room where nothing left

No wonder for the mind's heft

Every word sounds about right

Any soul is up and F'd

 

Always a new wall to tear down

Knowing the end is further up

Fed off some constant tossing up

Give in and start missing, out.

To find a way out you need to get completely lost
