A captive of geography Wings of freedom lacerated by circumstance Choking on quicksand that engulfed him long ago The lifeless land he inhabits With no promise of tomorrow No hope for today Determination laced  with desperation He is quite the cute pile of misery and regret Paralysed by fear of what he knows is coming The settling The mockery that will be him "Kick the chair from underneath you and be done with it nate" The voices swirl inside his head like an endless chorus haunting and guiding him to his end He walks this earth with a dark and somber string quartet as the soundtrack to his life That which troubles his soul conquers it Still he won't surrender.
