I walk and run and try to hide
The being burns me from within
For rules I cannot now abide
For being thrown to deadly sin
Rocking backwards in my mind
Pulling forwards with my heart
Thinking thoughts, though not so kind
Are tearing my poor soul apart
Painful pretense enters in
Pressure overwhelms my sight
Knowing not how long it's been
Pirahnnas of reality bite
Changes happen over time
Dense decisions eat me alive
A life of reason, yet still no ryhme
Purpose is for what I strive
Kill the channels; end the scenes
Find new hope for sanity
Curtain calls invade my dreams
Of pretense laced with vanity
If reason ever blocks your path
Of vengeance, hate, and painful wrath,
Sleep today and scorn tomorrow
For you too were born in love of sorrow
