Inside My Fatherland

Very funny how it is easy to be lonely in a city of millions
Very Crazy how it all goes from bustling and noisy
To killing the night in a cold-blooded silence 

The night becomes so silent 
The beat of my heart screams louder 
Than a pregnant woman in labour 
At a General Hospital with no electricity power supply

A simple indication that once again
I am back to the trenches of my loneliness 
Where thoughts of what tomorrow holds
In a faulty system 
Hunts my mental health 
Rapes my subconscious
And leaves my hope hopeless

Praying crosses my mind 
But that will be me joining millions to pray amiss 
Maybe I just need a willing to cheat Miss
To come fill my lonely night with sonorous moans of pleasure

!
My pocket cannot sponsor my desire for pleasure 
Maybe I should end it all
Once and for all
