The Gatekeepers of My Soul

In the deep blue realms of sadness Floats the madness of my soul No happy childhood dreams to cling to No cherished memories left to hold A crippled smile hides the weary miles And scars carved deep within my heart Ive searched this world for better horizons But it seems those aspirations fall apart Ive questioned God of my creation And the reasons why im hear But every time i think i see the light The vision slowly disappears. So ive made friends within these four walls With the gate keepers of my soul And i cozy up to my madness Alone in the dark and cold.
