The thoughts of my despair and dread
Buzzing around inside my head
The silver lining that faded to gray
Everything I thought I’d say
My alternate reality
To how things are supposed to be
My wood in the forest of steel
My escape to how I want to feel
My days full of abandonment
The time that was only spent
My lips afraid to move or speak
Too ashamed of being weak
Illusion that never changed
Into something true
This is my sweet escape
My sweet escape from you
