Lost in the reeds
Of calamity's seeds
Blindly stumbling on
Everything blocks your way
Causing you great dismay
Stopping when you should be gone
A comment here
Might bring you some cheer
To replace the grimace inside
But when the silence falls
And none reply to your calls
The truth can't be denied
Caught in the sprawl
Of buildings tall
The noise and the fight
Every day, every night
When comfort should reign
You're dragged back again
Out from where you belong
You can hear it's cruel song
The jungle has you wrapped in it's vines
Can you avoid it's clutches, escape it's confines
Walk briskly by
Let nothing catch your eye
It's waiting to reel you in
Close tight your inner door
Block every whiff, every spore
Let nothing absorb you from within
This must be your resolve
For every problem can't be solved
With sickle or scythe
You know you hold the key
They can't change you, internally
All that you need is inside
Caught in the sprawl
Of buildings tall
The noise and the fight
Every day, every night
When comfort should reign
You're dragged back again
Out from where you belong
You can hear it's cruel song
The jungle has you wrapped in it's vines
Can you avoid it's clutches, escape it's confines
