clean the cotton wool from my eyes.

clean the cotton wool from my eyes.

what fuels this inertia
of unchanging tides
a dismaying rest of laurels
long lost in waves of time

what spurs this vexation
a restlessness within
growing steadily stifling
roused from disillusioned sleep

the unceasing battle
between the angel and his foe
is it a clash of good and bad
or self-inflicted sorrow?

shake me from this hollow
chase the cobwebs from my brain
jolt me from the humdrum
and turn twisting roads straight
