The Retreat

There was nothing to do Never any way out Born in a cage Rose to believe I cut out Things that I said Things that I became The things that mattered are dead Becoming this was my game Everything that I say I had never believed I see my reality sway Into the depths of the deceived The distant retreat So far behind me now I’ve taken a seat This night will carry me somehow When darkness prevails I’ll stand up and smile The only good I could see It’s only one more stupid mile
