For the Sake Of

For the Sake Of in the light, of tomorrow, see the world shining through a haze. yesterday was the opening, tomorrow is the closing of the space, between, the visions of the lake Send out prisms divide the light around to everyone see how death is laid know your song sing along hear the notes skipping past your ears. smell and breathe away the day kick the prison bars all clear away. Keep tight stay right or you will be hollowed out to see your brain digging, digging for fortune swimming, swimming for safety dying, dying for the sake of getting out in the light, of tomorrow, see the world shining through a haze.
