Before the Bottom

by Adam
Copyright 2001 All rights reserved


i feel a need . . . .

here i am
pushing it all aside
lost again
wanting everything in flames

a peaceful grin
i fell foreword
into your plan
my escape

things in my head
my only friends . . .

i've drowned my self in this
i'm not me
not any more

i could be something greater
greater then before
the one you knew is a fading painting

pushed
shoved back
away from reality

I've become something new
there's a truth in all your lies
a sparkle left in your eyes

there's a meaning to this madness
there's a course to this sadness

i know you
I've been you
i was you

before the bottom . . . . . . .
