Road to Perdition - Nailed To Obscurity

Route just so unclear

Uncertain

Drifting away

Lost in a veil of thoughts

Astray

Drifting away

The circle starts to mount itself

As beginning turns to end

While the walls are growing higher

It’s getting harder to escape

In the center of my grief

I am caught

Out means in, I’m distraught

Lost the view from above

I am inside

Look from bottom to top

Nothingness in sight

A veil of thoughts

Drifting away

Gray in all its shades

Some fine indications of black

Not a single color

Is able to break through

A barbed wire limits me

Razor-sharp thorns attack my mind

The hurt feeds my inner conflict

A tower-like fortress locks me up

No frames, no doors, no windows, bricked up

No way to leave this solid prison

This is my road to perdition

The prison walls are closing in

The prison walls are closing in

Enwrapped in thoughts

I shudder to think

In the middle of a commanding eye

I lose my voice

The ability to express myself

And the eye still gazes at me

I realize I can’t go on

Because beginning turned to end

Soul compliant, so sadistic

In the center of my grief

I am trapped

Every step I do throws me back

Lost the view from above

I am below

Can’t reach for the top

Caught in the undertow
