as the people dance around and the music plays
all of my logic inside my head slowly fades
I watch everyone from a corner of the room where I stand
singing quietly to the songs of my favorite rock band
but this feeling inside of me is taking me over tonight
and my body trembles as it poisons my blood with fright
all the people around me don't even feel real, they are disguised
it's like they are not really there existing before my eyes
and I am detached from them all
like I'm not even here
and inside of me the only feeling
I have is this terrible fear
every color in the room shines so bright
it's like every one has a little light
it almost stings my eyes when I glare
I want to look more but it hurts to stare
cause I am seperated from every color I see
there is a forcefield that seperates them from me
and I just sit and wonder what is going on
something is not right but I can't know what's wrong
and I'm detached from every color surrounding me
every single speck of color my eyes can now see
I am detached from everything, I feel isolated
I'm shaking from fear, I've never been so afraid
I'm detached from the music as it fills my ears
I'm detached from the pain that is causing the tears
do I cease to exist in this world, did my world start to crash
tell me what is wrong with me, why do I feel so detached
Reminds me of my Alienation poem or Shut Out poem...alone in a room full of strangers...I totally get this feeling...well said, Em...Pam
