Stainless steel greets the opening of my tomb . . .
my solace . . .
my haven
My resolve fades
My time to release . . .
once again I'm in this box
I kick the wall and allow tears to caress my face
When the doors open I pull myself together and find my car
I’d like to know why but God won’t tell me . . .
not now . . .
not on this earth . . .
And someday it won’t matter
I know I’m strong enough
I have no choice to be anything else
Tonight I tell my children
When morning comes with a jolt of reality from a sweet dream
I once again will stand in front of the steel doors
I allow not one tear after the first night when we both let them flow
