in the early morning
the wind blows through
my heart
my blood runs cold
gripping to my dreams
not wanting to wake
the life I have created,
the one that consumes
is becoming unbearable
my soul is transgressing into
despair
happiness seems miles away
happiness is in my hands
slipping through my fingertips
like sand
I have no verve
loosing my nerve
headed sideways
through the heart
of some common land
marked in time
the clock is stuck there
and here is where
I walk the line
