lOSt anD faDe

shaking wildly with spicey eyes
restrained and forced into disguise
these words i speak that i despise
i swallow the tears, but not the cries

i've lost my own creative thought
the twisted path that i forgot
away from the light i seek to hide
the words with no feeling i keep inside

obsessively driven to strive for perfection
swaying so lost, walking in every direction
squeeze a lemon to get your high
squeeze too hard, and sting your eye

my fingers stalled at every line
from toxic blood inside my spine

shaking my head
blank, and dead
chasing my elusive focus
overprotective and and wrapped like locust
Lacking within to reach for new light
suffocating my skin that once was bright

so numb
so broken
no feeling
no token
run away
run afraid
inside the box of lost and fade

driven forth, forseen calamity
going mad beyond capacity
tricked me and trapped me
stripped me and strapped me
it binds
it drains
in sins
in veins
seek solitude
seek shade
inside the box of lost and fade

this monster took my words away
to write what things i need to say
i need sweet sorrow
to live my tomorrow

something of value stolen inside
losing my senses and most of my pride
now left with nothing but empty tales
sealing my coffin with shallow nails

my fragile words misconveyed
inside this box that i have made
this is the box of lost and fade
