in deep dark pits
or open cast mines
places that we never find

i see so much
but seem to know so little

but i always suspected it to be brittle

but not one person to take it

a dream that never ends

and I know it is in me
I understand a little of why you do what you do
although that is no excuse really

I lost a best friend
