Fall Monitor
By: Shawn D. Petrie (9-19-1999)
Still walking the black highway
Through the fields of ash
Searching for some friends of new
Disposing of yesterdays trash
Looking for the angel I know
May only exist in a dream
Fighting off the end of my world
Internal agony, steady streams
I view the little screen
Hoping to find so much more
Looking for that crack of light
A little hope shining from under the door
The buttons I press in the dead of the night
To help me through the hours
The people I meet and quickly dismiss
Display self gratifying powers
Who can you trust, why is it easy
Why bother anymore?
No one can fully anticipate
What this stranger has in store
Twisting the words into something that
I can relate to and understand
Expecting rejection, an out stretch of effecting
Trying to prove I’m a man
Still the light is shining on me
Blinding on the nights that I cry
Your sitting with me mocking my pain
Laughing at how hard I try
Right from the start you were there
Through my rise and my fall
If there were games and lies under your mask
Then why did you bother to call?
You can go away now, leave, be gone
Leave me here with my chords and my plugs
Striving to survive, loosing the battle
Depending more and more on the drugs
It would be so easy to turn you off
Forget you, disobey and walk away
But what you did is haunting my soul
And I live with it every single day
