The road down under

The sky turns grey
And the colours fade to dullness
My eyes seem to have lost
Their lustre for the variants
Of colours that precede them

And i walk, not talking
Down a path i've never known
Yet again, it keeps me thinking
Where it will bring me
But the hope and excitement
All seems to hollow

I look in the mirror
And i see reflections
Of a few, not many
But a few, they are enough
To remind me of past, present and future
The many facades i wear to
Dance in the daylight
An actor of situations
A chameleon of sorts
And i look to the other
The one in the dark corner
Nearly hidden from my eyes, i say
I can't love you anymore
You stole it all

And after everything
I feel like
This time, this place
I feel i'm laying under a tombstone
Buried 6 feet under
Resting in a coffin
