Spasm

My mind, out of my mind, in my mind's eye You've got mirrors in front of your eyes You can't see truth for self-obsession Compromise, why don't you live your life Are you so scared you'll be forgotten As you stare into the sun? Are you scared, you'll be forgotten As you stare into the water? In time you will arrive with a clear mind You'll be sure, you're not afraid of a freefall Words can't say all the things that you feel No faith that they'll outlive you anyway Down and out but no one's writing a book Altruistic or just trying to shine bright Are you scared you'll be forgotten As you stare into the sun, as you stare into the water?
