    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Am I

    by: Trapeze

    I think to myself; it's only a dream
    But, God, the connection is real that brings me here
    What did I do to deserve the place that I'm in
    Did I sin?
    It's so dark down here I can't see a thing
    I'm so stiff, so numb, I can't feel a thing
    My legs, my hands, my body is so cold
    Am I old?
    They laugh at each other and wallow about
    In the slime of the depths of forgotten meaningless rhymes
    Even the quiet of voices of people that heal
    Think I'm real
    Through shades of depths of madness I hear
    The violence of the people that talk without fear
    For they know that I've gone
    They're glad that I'm not coming back
