LOOSING IT.

No one sees me cry and no one hears my tears
They fall to silent applause
At last the years are peeled away
To realise the shadow of the mind behind.

Finally I cry for heaven knows what
And in that unknown I am saved
From myself, the hereditary malaise
In which we all deny our worth.

But telling me that you are me
Does nothing to staunch the flow
Knowing as I do I must go
Onward to your dreams come real.

Forcing the feelings Wanting what’s best
Aching within for a heaving chest
Dry are the eyes, now gone are the fears
How can that be when I’m still me?
Who are we now, who were we then
Why wont that feeling come again?

There’s a cold wind out tonight
And I am warm within
But why does that forsake me
When now I need it most.

I don’t want the comfort joy can bring
I don’t need the hatreds born of fear
Justly I want no machines to steal my dreams
So I cant remember, cant remember
The stars that came tonight.

See the light leaving its source
That’s how I perceive my work
Reaching out with my mind
Its hiding somewhere out there
What it was I used to have
And so to hold, create my leer
At all that has gone on.
