Among around this empty space
Sinking in the lowest fate
Lost in sudden defiance
Feeling the slowest silence

Seeing nothing -- dark and boring
How I felt -- a different story
I had slept my soul away
In this dreary mindless decay

Yearning for something more
To escape the life of sore
The soul found something new
Inside the mind I only knew

It's my time to get away
From this silence today
Reaching for that place in mind
Meaning of life I've yet to find
