Alone inside this misty place,
A hidden realm, myself replace.
Masked in roles they wish to trace,
Freedom whispers, but can't be embrace.

Replaying questions, scripted in lies
"I'm fine." I say, behind a disguise.
Sunlight dances upon my skin
Yet deeper scars reveal my sin.

Deafened ears to continuous screams
Enjoying the lies within distant dreams
The clock tics, as my mind slips away
The day shifts, leaving me in disarray

Am I alive or could I be dead
Feeding the fears with limitless dread
As I stumble around the gravel I tread
Left in the mist, endlessly misled
