The Subway
The Subway
By LoLa
Waiting for never
Bathing in silence
Protected from weather
Where silence is violence
Forever we roam
Eternally aligned
This box car is home
Suspended in time
Lights flicker with hope
This feels like a dream
Unspoken ways to cope
Pain that happens in between
Wayward souls wander
Destinations still unknown
Welcome echos pull us under
feeling that we're not alone
Strange vibrations illuminated
No time exists between trAin stations
In Destinations of the fated
Misguided words of adoration
Prophets read from torn pages
Mindless faces lose their way
Disllusioned, in their Cages
Telling more than Words could Say
A Disembodied voice declares
I have seen this day Before
I see the light, and it is fair!
Desparate cries to end a war
Past and present seen as one
Urgency in wandering eyes
Letting go; i come undone
And Leave behind things I'll deny
