Slippery Trees - Tapestry

Trapped inside your growing fortress, darkness eating up the light

You can place your weight on someone else’s back, but you’re alone tonight

At your chalkboard spewing garbage, product of a crumbling mind

Pulling out your hair, concocting hopeless potions, wasting time

Such an author, try and rewrite yourself in your fucked up mind

Too consumed by your obsessive schemes, you’ll soon be left behind

Dressed in white, oh what a costume, devil dresses up as god

Why you chose to build those barricades, well that I never got

Thought I was alone on my bed writing that letter stolen from me

When all along the room was living, learning secrets, what had it seen?

Like Icarus splashed into infinite sea plummeting fast through the sky

You serenade disaster, flirt with misery, fall and then act surprised
