There was a point
My foot was in the other shoe
The one with the nail
The noose was getting tight
I was about to fail
At that moment the sun began to fade
My life began to play
While the stars were lighting up the clues
I woke up in a hostel
On the road less travelled
Middle of the day
The clock was blinking 12
It took a while
But it seemed
Someone changed out all the fuse
Now I could see the nail
Before I could read too deep
On the rail
A piece of paper caught my eye
I recognised my writing
And read
“They’re all afraid to die”
Now my mind is spinning
Wondering
How can anyone be alive
While living in a lie
I have to let them see the truth
But who the fuck am I
Honestly
I’ve spent my conscious life
Trying not to be that guy
Every now and then
Serving food for thought
Hoping the return
Would be enough to get me by
But I
Couldn’t fight the compulsion
That said
I needed to try
I debated with myself
About how
Could I
A long forgotten legend
With no status
Teach anyone to fly
How
Could I
Hide the pain on my face
Mask the coldness in my eye
How
Could I
Protect the warmth that was left in my heart
Ground them in reality
Take away the fantasy
Expose the castles in the sky
Subtlety
