Hiding In The Shadows

Hiding in the shadows
of my room
with the door closed
– listening to the sounds
listening to the sounds
with my hands up against the wall

And off in the distance
I hear you running
down the hall
shouting words
words of warning and well wishes
completely delusional

Standing in my room
with the door closed
– listening to the sounds
there isn’t much left to do
how can I stand by
how can I help you

When all has been taken
and too often forgotten
straight forward implications
double handed speculations

And you are running
down the hall
shouting words
words of warning and well wishes
completely delusional

Two fist-ed revelations
Tower of Babble communications
There is nothing I can do
how can I stand by
how can I help you…

Hiding in the shadows
of my room
with the door closed
– listening to the sounds
listening to the sounds
with my hands up against the wall
