This is my place
On the edge where misty doze
conqueres me
surround by stinging affliction
and thick sky sheets
distict little creatures perched
on trees cover me

this is my place
to much to think
so many inquires
I look for the answers
to douse me like rain
such speech come to mind
not wanting to leave
so full of fatigued
this doze must be stronger
peace bring me to sleep

my throat swells
I'm dry
where is the water?
please bring me the water!
this is my time
fulfill my answers

staring at the charged greenlight
I close my eyes
when your mind has
nothing to throw away
all you can see
is the back of your
eyelids
and tonight one blink
sent your face through
my window
and my eyes are coming up
my place
my scenery
I linger...

When your mind has nothing to throw away
all you have to see is
the back of your eyelids
when sleep over powers your will to stay up
all you can do forget
the time being
all you can do is give in
all you you can do sleep...
