Echoplex

These four walls trap me force me away I can’t leave I want out The silence of loneliness The deafening nothingness I hate it I cry out in anger My voice just echoes off these walls My windowless room is mine alone Alone I count my long days until you visit me You miss me I know it We dream about each other About our night together You feel me breathe One day you’ll come for me so I can leave with you We love each other You’ll realize it You’ll save me We’ll run away together I won’t live here forever I love you I’m always watching you Are you watching me? My tiny room can fit us both I don’t mind There is a longing for each other You feel it I know you pushed me away Locked me away But I know you love me You think about me I see it all
