Entering the room with facial distortion on my mask. You thought you had a life that was closer. My true identity lies in my future, not my past. You thought you had a life that was closer. I can wish. Happiness exposed, and not too far from my grasp. You thought you had a life that was closer. Walking in slow-mo with Pentium time to pa**. You thought you had a life that was closer. Escape absinthe I can't imagine the pa**ion that was felt. Staring, procrastination…such power in yourself. Fall deep, try to get out. You laugh and cry and shout “I can't escape!”…if power's what I need. Elevation lowers (my blood pressure) is getting high. You thought you had a life that was closer. Waking up to another person that is not my wife. You thought you had a life that was closer. I can wish. Pain folds on (dirt) starts to fade away.
