"This
isn't about a specific instance but the general experience of
having something (or someone, for that matter) look good to you,
but as you get in deeper, you slowly realize that its not what
you thought it would be. You finally reach the 'point of no return'
and feel totally trapped. Lyrically, I attempted a describe the
decline."

White
There’s
a fluffy white, lovely white
Lightly warming, soothing, curing white
White like dreamy dreams incarnate like
Candy coated supernova light, like
Satin softly spoken whispered light
And its in my sight, its in my sight
There’s a nicely white, crescent white
Streaming sunbeams now decreasing white
Further in its dimming brooding light
Deeply scaring and serrated light like
Hopeless howling cries alone at night
And it takes my sight, it took my sight
I’m driving, I’m driving
I drive in faster, harder
Further, further till I can’t back up
I can’t back out…I can’t…no
I’m driving, I’m driving
I drive in faster, harder
Further, further till I’m out of reach
Don’t try to reach me
You just can’t reach
There’s a gracious white, civil white
Arms wide open and embracing white
White like glowing ghost redemption, like
Reverent rockets ricocheting light, like
Golden gleaming supreme being light
And its in my sight, its in my sight
There’s a brightly white, taming white
Fastly fraying swiftly graying white
Failing fading now decaying white
Ragged jagged and abrasive light, like
Impish shrieking screams enclosed in night
And it takes my sight, it took my sight
I’m driving, I’m driving
I drive in faster, harder
Further, further till I can’t back up
I can’t back out…I can’t…no
I’m driving, I’m driving
I drive in faster, harder
Further, further till I’m out of reach
Don’t try to reach me
You just can’t reach
Looking for the lenient sun
Searching through this viscous cloud
Fragment of truth are my ticket out
Junctures of light will lead me out
Junctures of light will lead me out
But I can’t get out with all this doubt
