The city cast a shadow From a fundament in grey Social standards race me higher A serenade of dreams I try to reach A second hope seems to exist Now i got to live with them forever This is the sorrow that comfort me Dreams of torture hunt my sleep I've never been so alone before I've never been scared to dream until now So i close my eyes This soul i have lacks something deep A weakening emptiness brought through And this is the pain that drives me This cold wind that rushes over me Will the city give me shelter? The rain that touches me An endless emotion Now i got to live with them forever This is the sorrow that comfort me Dreams of torture hunt my sleep I've never been so alone before I've never been scared to dream until now So i close my eyes _______________________________________ By Dickinson
