[bodytext] => Haunted by pressures, crammed in a box, I must get out, try hard to get lost. Escape this prison made by my mind, Dig a tunnel that's not easy to find. Crawl through the pits of utter despair, Where nobody knows I'm here, and no one cares. Snug all around, with the world on my shoulders, Have to move fast and dodge all the boulders. They're thrown down to spite me, from the world up above, Show me some mercy; I've shown nothing but love. Finally I get out, and climb to the light; It isn't until I emerge that I realize my plight. The sky's all black, with clouds of great thunder, And it's then that I realize the source of my blunder. With all of my quickness, and razor-sharp wits, I look to the hole, while the rain's in a blitz. Darting with diligence, I come to the entrance, Crying out to the heavens, "Give me one last chance!" It won't happen, the storm's not abated, And now I remember the reason I hated. With one last curse, and a shake of my fist, I disappear again, into the murky abyss.
