Crystalline Sunshine
Why is the air, so good for me?
The acrid taste, that gives safety.
And why’s it best, just to pass out?
Empty now I, can die, fade out.
It’s Crystalline,
It is sunshine,
It is the void,
Still in my mind.
New day, new pill, new empty smile,
Not quite cloud nine, but aiming higher,
Wanna sleep, fight, or cry in shame,
But it’s all I’ve got, to recall your name.
It’s Crystalline,
It is Sunshine,
It is the silence,
In my mind.
Rage taken by, an invited thief,
Is this better, this empty peace?
I’d tap the well, but it’s run dry,
Can’t feel enough, to even try.
