Can I Stay in the Light

Can I stay in the light? When the ground keeps caving in And I'm anchored only By the noose around my neck Rendered useless I am torn Weathered and alone Unable to see The purpose of this pain Irrelevant, redundant I am Product of a mistake Usurping useful quantities of Space Insecurities amplified by time Echo Overtaking me and leaving me breathless What put me on this path Gave me tools this hands can't use My soles are wearing thin And I can feel the wear Within No frame of reference No sense of self Anxiety knows me best Seeking refuge in past mistakes Apathy like therapy at times it gives me rest Can I stay in the light? When the ground keeps caving in And I'm anchored only By the noose around my neck Can I stay in the light? Can I stay in the light?
