Echoes In The Crystal

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

The opposition out of the way
The one besides me, anyway
Not high was the price
But what did I receive

Avoided by almost all the ones I need
Avoiding all the others that still seek
To remain in context
I closed my eyes
Pretended not to be
Made a lie not to see
That I'm walking alone

Don't need nobody
To encourage me again
Too afraid to make a change
Too often I have tried
Which too often made me cry

Ever circling to the same point once again
While names and faces change
Nothing ever does for me
Heart of stone
The best way to make it through

Crystal blue
Broke my eyes again
Took my soul underground
To feed it to the night
I've struggled, but I'm back
Although part of me remained
I know too much was left behind

"Goodbye", I say
"See you again"
And never tell you of my pain

Trapped again inside a dream
Can't even give a shape
To what I've lost these days
That no one saw I'd wish to see

Get back to where the day has started
Close the door behind
Get back to where the pain is waiting
With all the voices in my mind
