Arcane
Darkness falls upon my disguise
My heart is torn to my surprise
Emotional stress I cannot hide
A feeling of emptiness wrapped inside
My tears fall down from my eyes
Unto my fingertips as I type
One by One they cover my skin
Nothing will help, not even Mickey Finn
My fault, although I don’t want to admit
Even though it makes me sick!
From all the torment and all the pain
The book you seek, you wont find
For it contains the arcane, of one’s own mind!
Locked up and kept deep away
In your head it will stay,
For only you know which way!
Turn to the one hearts desire
Protected by thick barb wire
Standing on your feet with pride
You must search deep inside
For only you know in order to convey
The feeling’s of your own fray
To do what’s right and just
Because now it is truly a must
And I am hear to say, take the Milky Way
Up, Down, Side to Side,
A helter-skelter kind of existence is that ride!
