Beyond These Walls

(alexander, naydock)



"charge admission and rope me off"

She said, "i do believe i see income here"

Eight hundred and seventy pounds

From a thyroid condition, and one room bound, but



Beyond these walls

She screwing off with friends at work, and

Beyond these walls

She tells the guy she dates he's a pompous jerk again



She longs for normalcy

So she's worked some kinks into her reverie

Friends'll bug you and lovers fail

All that's human fills an intricate daydream sail, but



Beyond these walls

The mundane hints of rhapsody, and

Beyond these walls

Are faces and aquaintances and reasons for a routine



A rich imagination

And self-depreciation

She plays for laughs and

Eases the trials of isolation



Where she reclines alone

Her breathing labored, she begins to roam

Another wonderful active climb

In a beautifully crafted paradigm



Beyond these walls

A laugh with friends and awkward dates, and

Beyond these walls

She's overworked and running late, and

Beyond these walls

A wealth of situations makes for time away in daydream

Time away in daydream
