Tell me you'll always be my island
My escape from this world where I'm damned
I may not always be sane
I've just lost all control to refrain
From the emotions that engulf my soul
Like so much distortion yet never gets old
I can't always make sense
And forgive me for the times I have to vent
I'm just a visitor wandering aimlessly
Like a ghost on the plains concealed in invisibility
You can get as close as I can bare to stand
But my reaction is always the same: I ran
Love is a drug and it hurts me like the real thing
So why can't I fight the addiction that my soul sings
I'm not a man made of flesh and bone
An entity wandering alone with no place to call home
And when the world gets too much for me
I can log out and be with you in sweet serenity
But it seems that it's getting that time
The time when the world finally seeks punishment for my crimes
I'm a shallow soul who regrets his life and his deeds
So I'll visit my island, view the images I receive
This may be a virtual world but here I am at peace
Maybe this is real and the other is just my fantasy
