A Hologram in my home

A Hologram in my home

My heart is hollow and yearning
My soul is lonely and waiting
But when I look around I see it
Oh my God
This must be it

But is it real
Or am I dreaming

Is it there
Or am I delusional

Can it be
Or is it from within

How could I know for sure

I hear
I see
I smell
I want
I feel
But then I touch
You are not there

I reach out
I step
I fall
You are not there

Oh my God
You must be a hologram
Get this hologram out of my home

I'm gazing at a magazine
I'm listening to my echo
I'm staring in the mirror
I'm talking to myself
I'm writing to myself
I'm not making any sense by myself

For the answers come from within
Or do they come from without

How can I tell
How can I feel my pain

But for a little while I'm OK
For a little while I'm beginning to see the light

But will it last or is it lust
I can not tell
For the answers come from within

Look inside they say
Look inside

But what do I see but emptiness
What do I see but loneliness
What do I see but loathing
How could I bare to look inside?

I'm looking at a book
I'm gazing in the mirror
I'm staring at a television

But, what is it that they see?

[Blade & Blood (The ..]

Such a piece filled with confusion and sorrow. I can feel the narrator's loneliness and insanity; as negative as that sounds, it's still a good thing on your part. Basically, the tone's great. ;) Nice work and thanks for sharing this one. ^^
