I can't see what is real
It's drip, drip, dripping away
I don't know how to feel
It's just slip, slip, slipping away
I lost a purpose,
Or am I less defined?
Less concern about fitting into the world,
I forget, as time goes by
The empire starts to fall
Drifting away
My voice echoes off the wall
Fading away
These are not my eyes
This is not my skin
I can't be recognized

Yeah, well, I needed to go post. I was inspired by 'The Slip' the new NIN album. It's freaking free, go download it. This is not a subtle poem, the lines say it all, the awful realization that you've lost yourself.
