i'm lost,
i'm lost,
i'm lost in this maze of a mind.
green, 6 feet tall hedges edge the walk ways.
wind me up, push me away.
clap, clap, which direction do i sway.
a walking monkey, i can't see it, only hear.
my emotions have taken the wheel, how will i steer?
i walk, i run, i fall.
i fall down into my own brown eyes.
i'm lost,
i'm lost,
with only the question of 'why'.
with questions of questions,
no thoughts for my thoughts.
the sound of cymbals ring everywhere.
the curve of the turn,
the slash of the thorn.
my hand cut open, fingers completely torn.
wind pushes with a push,
as the ring of brass becomes stronger.
no indication of a soon to come hush.
be quiet.
i'm lost,
i'm lost,
lost within the click of my heel.
i feel it right behind me,
the clash of steel.
my senses are blown from my body.
dark consumes me.
i walk, i run, i fall.
i fall down into my own brown eyes.
drown, drown, i drown in a pool of copper.
the bash of copper becomes all i hear.
clap, clap, the noise won't disappear.
i fall once more,
but only to be thrown into some bushes.
but they're not only bunched up plants.
green, 6 feet tall hedges edge the walk way.
there's only one cement path.
but i refuse to go.
the monkey stands there as my one and only foe.
i'm lost,
i'm lost,
i'm lost in this maze of a mind.
the only way to win, is to fly.
