never have I felt so morally trapped never has my essence been so black forever I can't look into that room and be so happy with that which I have mistaken for happiness all the songs I have in my heart have no voice to melodically say all the music I have in my soul have no fingers which it could play all the words I have spill patiently into a fountain of black and white draining of reason and colour to blend into one lonely night never have I felt so certain (I'm sure...) that I'm no longer any closer to the shore as the butterflies gave way to an ocean of jellyfish and the trees in the horizon are little more than just sticks I'm ready to float into the universe because beyond is what a soul sees I will give up this existence and let my master be the breeze and hope that in the next life I'm not trapped into something that is as useless as a body that learns nothing

I want to carve out my soul
never have I felt so morally trapped never has my essence been so black forever I can't look into that room and be so happy with that which I have mistaken for happiness all the songs I have in my heart have no voice to melodically say all the music I have in my soul have no fingers which it could play all the words I have spill patiently into a fountain of black and white draining of reason and colour to blend into one lonely night never have I felt so certain (I'm sure...) that I'm no longer any closer to the shore as the butterflies gave way to an ocean of jellyfish and the trees in the horizon are little more than just sticks I'm ready to float into the universe because beyond is what a soul sees I will give up this existence and let my master be the breeze and hope that in the next life I'm not trapped into something that is as useless as a body that learns nothing
and.... I'm done :-)
