Stone encompasses everything
No style, no feeling, just walls
That hide inside our minds,
Like a painting of the air
But there is no air
Because the stone steals
It steals the soul of feeling
The tunnel that does not end
It goes on and on and on
And on and on and on
That runs deep into the earth
It plunges into the darkness
And I am left to awe and wonder
Staring at a reflection of myself
Expressionless at a glance
Terrified at a stare
Tumbling through solid concrete
Rumbling to a halt
And people and people
And people and space
No space, no air
The feeling of being surrounded
Strangers, faces and shadows
Expressionless, faceless
They do not sense
They do not see
They cannot move
They cannot move
Panic and panic
To go, where to go
To hide my eyes
The sea of stone
But there is never an escape
And the tunnel does not end
And the walls do not return
The smiles that they stole
