I tried to change
But I could not be...

Human nature
Wanting that which one cannot have...

Trudging along the shadowed valley
Surrounded by things I forgot once...

Wander, wear this forgotten road
Towards a visibly invisible node...

Separate the lies
from skin and bone...

Fallen have the mask and veil
And what was unknown is now revealed...

Good day sir, could you spare a dollar?
I swear it won't be put to waste...

So easy for this child
Who plays hop-scotch with time...

What is sleep when it never comes?
Nothing more than a memory...

A little girl
Not older than 7...

For too long have I suffered
For too long have I cried...

As I stood gazing up at a picture
Losing myself in it's marvel...
