I am

My fingers are grass
My tongue the asp
My town a burial mound
My eyes are jewels
My ears hear tools
I put them down
My feet are wings
My body sings
Without a sound
Eyes of blind ignorance
See a world of despair
Mountains of man
Hide cities too deep
Cool dark graves where bodies creep
My nose is sharp
It cuts the glass
And then I escape
My back is flat
Off the beaten track
I am a landscape
My body
is finely intertwined
I am a raging snake
I am at peace
The feeling's neat
Then suddenly I awake
Eyes of blind ignorance
See a world of despair
Mountains of man
Hide cities too deep
Cool dark graves where bodies creep
I am a waterfall
I come tumbling
Tumbling
Tumbling down
Into infinity
I journey to the sea
I rain through leaves and trees
On beggars and thieves
On fools that grieve
But I am
I am
I am
I stand at my window
Wind and moonlight
Fire my hair
I touch the glass
It can't be seen
But it's always there
I'm told I'm free
And I believe
Four walls imprison me
Eyes of blind ignorance
See a world of despair
Mountains of man
Hide cities too deep
Cool dark graves where bodies creep
My fingers are numb
My tongue is blunt
I am only me
My eyes are shallow
My ears hollow
I am only me
My feet are still
I'm unfulfilled
I am only me
My head's a bed
It feels like lead
My mind's totally free
I must sleep
I am
I must sleep
I am
I must sleep
I am
I must sleep to dream
I am
