Is there any air in a house of glass
for troubled times and tired self?
I can find my peace when I get to bed
But If I dreamt, it can't exist.
Something within feels like I've eaten nails.
because it's night at daytime while I'm here
Some would say it's greener if it's theirs,
but each side of the hill is grey.
Do I look stoned?
I spend too much time at home.
Elixir vitae
Trying not to be awake.
I drown out the harsh by looking down
No shoelace strewn or change in step
I sound out the noise with open eyes
Yet, I'm in a garden beside myself
Something within feels like I've eaten nails
It's day at nighttime if you're here
Some would say it's greener on your side
but I know you see only grey.
Do I look stoned?
I spend too much time at home.
Elixir vitae
Trying not to be awake.
