No More

The quote "I will survive,(etc)" is from a song by The Grates.

Feeling lost in the gray morning, who are you?

Because I'm certain that you left yourself back in Oz,

with your hold on my heart.

I'm lost on the road, free and frightening.

In a world of my own, caged by my own creation.

By the wall that I put up brick by brick, torn down for few.

Now new and polished stone, incredible this loss in the Desert Kingdom.

Worse than an ivory tower, yet I've got the pyre fueled and burning.

The fear I was acquainted with has now disappeared.

Now with the King of the Highway, holding his hot/cold hand.

The one that plagued, and beckoned me to begin with.

His other hand, free, roams across my face,

pushing away my random curls of auburn hair.

As the vision disperses he says," You'll always be my girl.."

I've known him all my life, the ghost I feared and respected over all.

I know now why I heard his spirit call.

Now that the fear and fever have diminished.

Now I realize that death was just a new beginning.

My head spinning as I hear the Shaman and tribe chant.

Sorrowful and mixed with defeat.

Knowing now that death is here and there is no turning back.

I replace the world in the blink of an eye.

Mismatched, I've had enough of that.

Falling into madness welcome to the new wonderland.

"I won't survive,

I won't survive,

I won't survive,

I won't survive.."
