fever

running into darkness and the grey wall

in the strange quicksand which is some dark trap

you have no choice you must cry out and fall

yet this is not the time for you to bawl

at life's injustice and go off the map

running into darkness and the grey wall

with none to hear as the hard sun stands tall

you have the strength to go another lap

you have no choice you must cry out and fall

but will get up though none may hear your call

since there is still a way out of the crap

running into darkness and the grey wall

even though light itself may seem to maul

your heart and no one ever gives a rap

you have no choice you must cry out and fall

struggle again to show you have the gall

to face down all the ravages of hap

running into darkness and the grey wall

you have no choice  you must cry out and fall
