Madness
I stood mid ocean, seeking dry land

For which to stand

(I was lost)

I placed my fire of service upon his alter

( I remained hopeful)

Knowing my actions wouldn't falter

I rise to every challenge

(Stand Up)

However, I keep on dying repeatedly

(keep going)

But I live on adamantely

I keep on dying because I love to live

(there is hope)

Rotting flesh and maggots do not convince me of my demise (trickery)

The years and cold defeat live deep in the lines

along my face

That I wish I could erase

(I'm getting too old for this)

HE gave me a gift

I keep up my sleeve

(a blessing)

I can walk the ocean floor and not have to breathe

(strength)

I shall never raise my face as a white flag of surrender

For I am a believer

This is Madness

A kind of hunger

And I am Starving

It's

Mad
