Kaleidoscope

Outside forces

I sat with a knife in my hand
when the bell hanging off my neck rang
and the angel whispered,
He is looking he is looking,
so i covered my eyes and whispered back, this body is mine

Here lays the issue of outside forces
Rushing me like tides
They humm a tune and before I know it
I've already raised my arms

The angel bowed his head again to say
They are waiting in each corner of the room
I rose my eyes and asked aloud
Who comes there
They hissed
You soon will learn, that's who

And I am rushed by outside forces
Twisting left to right,
I do a turn and bend my neck
Then get stuck right in their arms

The bell kept ringing all this time an unfamiliar tune
The Angel hummed
Dance to this song and you'll be free soon
I turned to look him in the eyes that hid the midnight sky
How am I to know this and the last aren't the same one?

And I am rushed by outside forces trashing in my life,
And I keep the knife against my body just to stay alive
