Day outside grows black
 I lie faceup in my shell
 Squeeze my eyes shut
 And feel like falling into blank space

 Had allowed that life to drift
 For I’ve chosen a different trail
 When light fades
 I feel like falling into blank space

 So you realized
 Ingested real life
 Grew up in the time of
 Pushing through the crowds
 So you realized
 Chose unreal life
 Settled in the mobile
 Handy pocket size

 Wanted to be your light
 Illuminate your smiles
 Wanted to be your cure
 Bridge between self and us
 Wanted to be your prayer
 Wipe the tears from your eyes
 But I turned my back

 Could have been a tree of dawn
 Rooted deeply in the ground
 Bearing [bad word]  Far away from falling into blank space

 But I took refuge from myself
 In the crowded solitude
 Now I dash
 And feel like falling into blank space

 Wanted to be your light
 Illuminate your smiles
 Wanted to be your cure
 Bridge between self and us
 Wanted to be your prayer
 Wipe the tears from your eyes
 But I turned my back
 Got lost inside
