Still

Still

I can hear the sun is rising
The sound increasing with the light
No other noise but what I am thinking
And it kept me up again last night

Too many days I lay there hardly breathing
Like yesterday, I can't take it anymore
Listening to sounds that really have no meaning
Ever since the closing of the door

Penance is what I am seeking
Stillness in the hope of silence
Outside the inside is reeking
Violence for the sake of violence

Emptiness surrounds me unheeding
Faded outlines only in black
Loneliness has been it's bleeding
Weakening my turning back
