lost in the space between awake and sleep   lost in the silence between the sentences      breathing by instinct alone   (we are ours alone)   breathing the same stale air as the day before   (we are all alone)      i've spent so much time inside my cell, i've lost my mind.   buried alone, deep in this hole, no one will ever find me here      this crippling house in view, it cuts my curse in two   should i stay or should i leave   the shadows on my window sill, a vague reminder   of the world outside.   how was i to know i'd be stuck in here alone    wondering where my life went wrong   how was i to know that every stone i'd throw would come back at me      i've spent so much time inside my cell, i've lost my mind.   buried alone, deep in this hole, no one will ever find me here      why do all these pictures, smile back at me?   you're too busy living in the past   why does it seem like my whole life's behind me?   you're never happy with anything
