as i pass through this tunnel i called life
catching a small glimpse of what's outside
only to be obscured by rock walls once more
i can imagine the breath of fresh air
life delivered to my choking lungs
black and withered from the lies i told
(i can change)
(it will only get easier)
(there is, love for me)
and my eyes, not open to the sun
see so far in front when blind to the light
everything looks the same granite and grey
deliver me from this overbearing mountain
of self afflicted doubts, weighing down
to the point of immobilizing madness
will path i walk ever lead me home?
the rusty tracks beside, promising change
winding, twisting, never-ending
when
a rumble through the ground
a tremble through my being
a light! a freight train savior!
a step to the tracks,
wait, hold.
arms open to embrace my fate
