for 1,000 years i’ve been
sitting here, all alone
with my mind on fire
waiting to be set free
what more is there for me
after all the running around
after all the countless hours
after all the tears
at the end of 1000 years
for the longest night
i’ve been laying awake
wondering why i cannot rest
1000 nights frustrated
like all of you that i look upon
all routines so flawless
where will i end up once i have emptied
the last drip of sanity from my cup
my mind is filled with fright
for this and all of my remaining nights
from this monent forward
for 1000 years
