Life Behind Glass
Christopher Taylor
Life behind glass
Serving, but never truly taking part
This disconnect
Is drifting in and out to make the art
Life behind glass
Time passing in my sleep while I'm awake
External paths
Overgrown all the while I am awake
Shown another lifeline, will I fix my mistakes?
Reset, restart
If I can't engage, I'll lose my way forever
This mortal coil
Wound tight around my neck, my feet don't touch the soil
This hourglass
Is turning, while I look away, I'll never last
And I slip under
Slide gently back from any indirection
You feel so far
Life behind glass
Shown another lifeline, will I fix my mistakes?
Reset, restart
If I can't engage, I'll lose my way forever
