Things that seem distant
are really sitting right behind me
getting ready to attack from out of nowhere
and i don't realize until it's to late
i try to swerve to miss it
but it hits me hard from behind
my brain pounds in my skull
i try to think of what to do
and nothing comes to mind
my thoughts have been confined
within these walls I've built around myself
where nothing can come in or out
dark and dreary
black and grey
i can only see the things that seem far away
and it's always too late
