BESIDE MYSELF

Buried banging at your door.
Don’t hear a sound, don’t know me anymore.
A bell that tolled to comfort me
An empty street, a rising steam.

Break the truth inside of me.
Climbed down to hell on the devil’s tree.
I clutched a branch of soot and flame
The thought that rose to scorch my feet.

I walk alone, beside myself,
Nowhere to go.
This bleeding heart
That’s in my hands I fell apart.
I walk alone, beside myself
Nowhere to go.
My Flesh and bone
This part of me
The seeds I’ve sown.
...
