safe from all the hurt and pain
this is the story of my soul locked away

trapped in a padded room
hunched over in a corner

white floor gray walls
no windows or doors
fake air to breath

my soul doesn't know how she got here
only that shes here

somewhere lost, is my subconscious
lost in the dark cracks and corners of the room
she put her here
then made herself disappear

fear strikes my soul
it came from nowhere
but a door appears
the sound of heavy footsteps soon follow

my soul knows those steps
knows who's feet they are
fear tempts her
traps her
and now she's scared

a loud bang gets her moving
someone is trying to open the door

within fear she finds courage
courage to hold the door close

fear seeks strength
strength to keep it shut

someone is trying to spoil her room
her safe room

a lovely pink smoke slides under the doorway
curiosity thinks it might smell nice
wisdom knows other wise

in an instant my soul knows
its her special perfume

her tattle tale sign
that my soul needs to keep away
and guard the door
..with all her might.
