Behind the Hazel

Look past the curtain that unveils these secrets
talk to me
tell me your thoughts
show me your design
we'll sit here for days
this place is falling apart
beneath the smoke
lies horrified faces
terrified hands clutching
one another's breath
in our minds we see
see what we know to be true
glistening green scenery
despise the truth
but make sure to keep walking
don't stop to look around
you'll become just like one of them
uncaring and blind
an emotionless mind
just dying to know one another
go on,
save yourself
i'd rather you be happy than drag you down
down with me
the skyscrapers are tumbling down
camouflaged in the black of the night
and your face is a silouette in the golden moonlight
i can't leave. i can't stay.
get me out of this hell
save me from my own self
