Standing In Silence...

0 posted 2003-05-29 08:37 PM



So confused
Don't know what to do
Lost in this freaked-out dream
Twisted world of fate
What do you have in store for me now
Do you hold all the cards?
Or can I have my own hand in this wicked game?
Weaknesses starting to show
The things I hide, were meant to stay that way
Inside, I'm just a crumbling city of tears and broken dreams
Can I please have my mind back
Or aren't you finished torturing it?
No strength left to finish the game
So I guess this is checkmate...you win...

If You Wanna See A Rainbow, You've Gotta Live Through The Rain. And If You Wanna See Through Love, You've Gotta Live Through The Pain.

This struck me as quite philosophical, but at the same time it deals with human emotion very well. I liked the use of the game as a metaphor for an inner turmoil. Nice one
