Cruelly Awakened
I wish to escape this life
Like the silver mist
Of the midnight hours
This life
With it's losses
So great
They make the Grand Canyon
Seem small in comparison
Where the people who claim
That they love you
In fact loathe you
Beyond all measure
I wish to escape this life
Like the silver mists
Of the night
Whose freedom
Remains their own
Disappearing
Reappearing all
In the blink of an eye
