Halls of the Dark Muse

Half-Alive

Half-dead
and half alive

cannot seem to understand
the reason why
all this searching
for an endless time.

The fountain of youth
a pain in the dark
where is the hope
in finding your way

when you are half-dead
and half-alive

and cannot seem to
understand why.

Just feel it always
slipping on by
only delusion
a real self-illusion
to make you believe
in a true meaning.

Dreams are dust
and you feel the truth
burn deep inside
so you know
you are only

half-dead and
half-alive

with no reason
why.
