Show me chance, I am here waiting by the light of the dawn to pounce on opportunity.
Given the chance I am going to be somebody even if it is only for one night.
This is where I go when I want to be somewhere else, someone else, even if it is only for one night.
Away I slip deeper and deeper into the breath of the chest that flows from the rhythm of my mind, from the waste of my time.
I am anywhere now, stranded and naked exposed. If my heart goes then my soul will follow to the carnage of the fiery surface.
I built this prison so why must I serve in it, when I can use the key that I have provided to let these chains drop onto my floor.
My feet rest beneath me without the purpose of their intent. Where am I now?
I drew the map that got me lost in this moment... I will get like this from time to time and time is all I have and all I have lost with the change of the clock.
I hear the beat now and my foot begins to tap.
The corner brings a new light, thats when I know that you are alone.
So cold like a desert night, so warm because I have me to make my own light.
In a moment of self honesty I have realized that it is the sound of my tears that I fear the most.
The tap of my foot in a hollow home proves that I am here alone.
I turn my music up, I stretch my fingers out, my mind on auto pilot, my hands on the keyboard, tap tap tap.... and words flow like cars in a tunnel in a place far from me.
Headlights provide the glare to stare and daze off into a world where all that exists is the tap tap tapping of these keys.
The beat speeds up and the music begins to grab a hold of me, to make me feel, like I want to feel.
Looking for an ending I call upon all of the emotions that circle the back of my eye lids hoping something shatters from my mind into the ink on the page into an explosion of a revelation... It never comes..
In the end, it is only me.
But hold on... the track has changed in the blink of an eye in the scent of the room.
Now I feel like dancing again into the place that I call home.
The place I face on a daily basis in order to ensure my future is here.
I believe the end of this ramble will come as well, even with so much left to say, I leave.
I will leave it at this.
