    Step Back
    Two weeks iv'e been alone
    Corroding in my home
    I've laid myself to waste...
    Addicted to so much
    Its like everything I touch
    Is tampered with or laced...

    You struck a root in me
    And I thought I was free
    The things people repress....
    And I cant cut you out
    Not while im still in doubt
    You've made my life a mess...

    And I know your aware
    Of things I keep inside
    Your the only one
    Who could ever read my eyes.

    Two weeks that youv'e been gone
    Two weeks that I have grown
    Aware of what I am
    Addicted to a dream
    Something that can not be
    I've done all that I can...

    I need to figure out again
    How I lost myself and when
    Things just lost control
    If this dream can not be mine
    Then I'll stop wasting my time
    Im sorry if im cold...

    And I know your aware
    Of things I keep inside
    Your the only one
    Who could ever read my eyes.
    And let me be the one
    To tell you what you've read
    Game over, its been fun
    I'd rather be alone instead.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
