Despite the company surrounding me,
I'm quite comfortable here in the silence,
Full of the life around that no one sees,
Yes it's a viewing but I need no one around.
I'm living in the moment,
For me and myself only,
Really the moments around me are quite hilarious,
After opening my eyes to the consuming nonsense.
It's you living for nothing,
living in nowhere for my faults,
It's you enjoying this decay dance,
Over the dance floor of my heart.
As you wander around lost,
Tredding on what's left of the heart you broke,
The rest of me is in a happy denile,
In a land that seems to be all my own.
Soon the nothing you are living for,
For all the faults I used to have,
Will consume you to no end and that will end,
And once again my dance floor will be mine.
Until then I will continue to live in the little things,
Putting my own faults behind me,
Happy to be alone and wandering to no end,
Dancing to the own beat inside my tired feet.
I'll be happy just to know that,
It's you living for nothing,
Living in nowhere for my faults,
It's you enjoying this decay dance,
Over the dance floor of my heart.

This was nicely put in some parts but other parts sounded very familiar and a little cliche. But in saying that it was penned with passion and read interestly.
Goodluck.
