Looking over the city's lights My sight becomes blurry The traffic lights stream together An electrifying line of light I feel a rhythm beat inside me I can sense it building Outside the moon is bright The ocean is in high tide I open the window to the world below The hum of traffic fills the room A gust of wind comes through Billowing curtains towards me Pushing my hair away from my face I am reclusive but don't feel alone I wonder why we build a temporary future I wonder why we shun away the idea of an eternal life I need to escape this city before it consumes me I'll keep a watchful eye on the night sky Until I sink into the morning sun I sense my soul is on a different path But not of least resistance I make my way to an imaginary ledge With eyes closed and arms spread wide I take a deep breath and dive
