Tunnel

Geoff Thurman

It’s like I’m walking through this tunnel a I am stumbling in the dark a Feeling the hallways echo voices a Watching my tears fall on the walls

Hearing me crying in the distance a It could be possible to flee a I must run rip shot through this rock face a Yes I will throw weapons down

Face down in the blood of those who stood against you a To face down the fear that chains this pain

I touch a presence too familiar a As real as the dagger in my soul a Rising up within me is the haunting in my spirit a Ready to lash out in rage

I’m turned to face my physician a I’m forced to face what I have done a I just want to lunge at you in anger a Feel what you’ve put me through

Face down in the blood of those who lost their virtue a To face down the very lies that plague my soul a Stand face to face to face the truth of my crimes a Breathe in to guard my free will now

But I don’t a I am filled with love beyond overwhelming odds a Calm cries out a And I raise the rebel yell

It’s like my surgery’s beginning a But I struggle to wake myself a Trying to shake this anesthesia a Shake this anesthesia

What does it matter if you understand me a I’m bathed in the flow of him who bled before me a I’m filled with peace that washes over

It’s like I’m walking through this tunnel a Where the wheels have fallen off a And I am sick of this affliction a Sick of this affliction
