I wonder how the light
Can come in
When the thick curtains of velvet
Are pulled togetherWords and sound
Travel swiftly
In and out
Never ceasing
Always swayingHow do you expect
My mind to know
What it doesn't
You have taken the key
The map
I am lostAnd loyalty morphed into confusion
Of those lofty gray walls
I know too well
And those velvet curtains
Now trap the light
Words and sound
Now rage in a frenzyMore confusion
More walls
More gray
Heavy curtains
Two way streets
Where am II am lost
