Father
I must to go
and hear what goes in the world

Mother
I think back to
when you

speaking to me in tears
and hugging me I said,
"I will return"

I'll dry your tears
so please
help me on the run

I'm coming to an end,
I've realised what I could have been.
I can't sleep

so I take a breath
and hide behind my mask,
I'm a broken man,

do the best I can
I lost my mind
and then

I lost control
