All alone in a world
more a trap than home
where light isn't real
and all is blind.
From my place in a hole
no more a hole, underground
nothing to brighten my life
so here I remain.
I can see so much from here
the shifting of the earth
the hidden life-forms
the melodies of mud
and the breathing of rocks...
but they left me alone
with crumbling dirt walls
and a window.
All alone in a world
filled with life and death
I have fulfilled my duties
and now I must go.
Time to end this cycle
of nonstop pain and awe
to make my way down
to end their control.
I wanted so much
to feel like them
to live somewhere else
to visit the places I saw
and now, to die in peace
because they left me alone
with naked stone walls
and a window.
All alone in a world
where I only find death
I have fulfilled my duties
and now I must go.
To farewell my mysteries
and the crowded dark
to make my way up
to end their control.
I wanted so much
to stop the chaos
to live in the light
to leave this cursed place
and now, to die in peace
because they left me alone
with crumbling dirt walls
and a window.
