I don't go outside anymore

another day
no blue in the atmosphere 
seems a long way from here
lost on some distant shore
the sun won't stay
black crows in a sky of gray
it doesn't matter anyway
I don't go outside anymore

I remember
every detail
I've wanted to forget 
every broken dream
every regret
I fear what my future holds in store
people moving
every which way
but not me
I lay in bed all day
I don't go outside anymore

           in the morning
           birds sing
           morning bells ring
           but I can't hear a thing
           except the memory of your voice

I wish this world
would disappear
lover's laughter brings me tears
where's the hope 
I once had before
I know a place
that's right for me
lock me in
throw away the key
I don't go outside anymore
I don't go outside anymore
