•FROM BEHIND THE GLASS•

•EIGHT•

•When I wrote Letters,
Track •EIGHT• of Part •ONE•
I needed something better.
Felt like there was no one.
Community cut the fetters,
And I found the only Sun.

Now the drive is new.
Used to lose the view.
Life was blue and cruel.
Couldn’t renew fuel.
Wasn’t looking out for you,
I wrote for me, venting truth.
Now it’s not what to say,
The focus is on the “who?”

You’re why I fight it now.
That audience of •THREE• I mentioned before.
You’re why I’m laying down
In my prison describing my surroundings from the floor.
I could stay quiet, write happy sounds,
But that is dishonest.
Right now I promise
I’ll do anything to keep you around.

I remember waking up wishing I hadn’t.
Looking in the mirror thinking I shouldn’t have happened.
Dreading going back to school, The King was thriving in my classes.
Rain pouring down, ear buds in, walking home,
Should I walk into the traffic…

You’re why I fight it now.
That audience of •THREE• I mentioned before.
You’re why I’m laying down
In my prison describing my surroundings from the floor.
I could stay quiet, write happy sounds,
But that is dishonest.
Right now I promise
I’ll do anything to keep you around.

It’s almost funny,
Being where I am now and missing home,
It was taken from me.
I gave it away for another chance to grow,
But The King keeps coming,
Ruining a good thing, striking another blow.
He built this prison to keep me from knowing hope,
Surrounded by his army,
The prison flips again, and I fall, all alone.

But I won’t give up,
And neither should you.
The Peasantry is not dead yet.
And I am not The King’s pet.

You’re why I fight it now.
That audience of •THREE• I mentioned before.
You’re why I’m laying down
In my prison describing my surroundings from the floor.
I could stay quiet, write happy sounds,
But that is dishonest.
Right now I promise
I’ll do anything to keep you around.

I see her scars when she takes my money,
Puts it in the register.
My heart shatters inside me.
I just want my message heard.
I know so many more are fighting.
Some might be about to give.
And everyday I fight the crying,
At the thought of one of you questioning the choice to live.

It’s why I spend most of my time on live stream and in your DMs.
I can’t stay away because if I’m not there, The King might beat ‘em.

I know it isn’t much to write these words and sing another person’s songs,
But until Part •TWO•, it’s all I have, I’m sorry but this stuff takes so long.

So stay with me until this time has passed,
I’ll sing and write to you •FROM BEHIND THE GLASS•

•EIGHT•
