The troubles I seek to lose
Are hidden within you
I come to you for company
And yet I still feel alone
I recognize you and know you
But I don't know you
We pretend to be friends
Yet in the end
We are all here for the same reason
An escape
Attempt at something
Besides the jail we keep ourselves in
Which is without bars
In the moment
Much can happen
This is the time to be free
To break from your prison
If even for a moment
To let go
And let it be
The inside needs out sometimes
So the soul's eyes can see
Put one more on my tab
I get paid next Thursday.
