hey guys, this one is called Feast: you can listen to it at www.adamwhiting.netif you like. I appreciate any feedaback.


thanks,
Adam


How do I keep my dignity
After I've fallen at your feet?
How do I follow and act like him,
Should I bleed to feed the deep?
I confess, it was me
Who felt the need to leave you in a heap.
I didn't come for my salvation,
I only came for the feast.


You keep your dreams on the highest shelf,
As far as you can from yourself.
Out of sight, you say I am out of my mind.
But you forgot how that felt.
And when you left me behind you,
Did you turn to watch me fall?
You say I was your fool,
To think you needed me at all.


And my mind makes ghosts from the breeze.
If I run they start to chase me.
If I turn to you they'll take you back down.
Until you release me, release me, release me.


You say my madness amuses you,
That I haven't been outside in three days.
You say I dropped your ball,
And just let it roll away.
And I know it doesn't surprise you,
You've known from the start,
There's so much of me confined in you,
And so much of you in the poem.


You can't bring it up,
What you're hiding from me,
You're keeping me hooked,
By depriving me.
My tantrum face is turning blue,
But you're calling my bluff.
And I keep asking for more,
When I've had more than enough.


And my mind makes ghosts from the breeze.
If I run they start to chase me.
If I turn to you they'll take you back down.
Until you release me, release me, release me.
