nothing is real

silence encases the night blacking out the day , erasing the light
visions dance in the rain,drenching the minds of those who welcome the strange
the sun hangs in the sky made out of paper--mache stars and moons of silver foil fame
trees and flowers colored like children took to them with vengeance
echoing that this world is full of menace
words leak out of books so what remains is never quite the same
stick figure people run this world of make believe
what we see is not what we see , where shadows exist, and truth runs like zebras made out of Popsicle's stick
i know of of what i say , or what i do
i sit here in red to believe in crimson and maroon
to understand my insane fate, blues run in my fevered brain, i close my eyes so i can see straight
illusion wrapped in lies colored in greys
clocks never run backwards only forward in an endless parade
things left behind stay locked away, minds that move slowly get no play
they are only beginning the race, the finish line is gone it left no trace
everything goes that way only to begin another day
