Underneath

Open the floor and you'll find me there Hiding in this basement hell I sleep with demons, although I dream of angels And the angles in the walls disturb me Open the floor and you'll find me there Curled up like a fetus in the comfort of a womb I hide my face in the corners of my arm Waiting for the faces in the wall to disappear When they leave and I am alone again I will sit up straight and begin to stand For I am free in my solitude With no spirits and voices to distract me Focusing on the stillness within me This is freedom, This is my solitude Underneath your feet, This is my home
