Shutter

Shutter – where have you gone when the storm has come?

Run away as always, your pride asleep won’t hurt

I’ve seen a thousand faces, all void as yours

I’ve seen a thousand lives, all gone as yours

Now – the curtain falls

Upon the deeds of yours

And leaves the bitter taste of absence

Shutter – where have you gone when your turn has come?

An empty seat remains, the stench of coward fills the air

Another teenage angst, another waste of life

The prototype of failure, a human piece of junk

Now – the curtain falls

Upon the deeds of yours

And leaves the bitter taste of nothingness

Shutter – close your eyelids to the world

So you cannot see what you became

A prisoner of life

A prisoner of your own life.
