The Outlier

The days confined within the walls were good,
The days given the evening curfew were good,
The days without the handy evil were good...


First day there filled with words and smiles,
Maybe it was the same here
Third day there refreshed with laughter,
It was a gap so soon here

We ran for happiness then,
Maybe the reason has changed now
We never left the dinning empty then,
Maybe the seats are engaged with something else

I entered the room then,
chatters till I leave them
I'm entering the room now,
only a second to leave them

In a hall of texting hands,
I'm looking for a holding hand
In a bench of competing minds,
I'm looking for a compassionate heart

One for all and all for one then,
One for one and that's it for all now
They got people to spend time with,
But the blame falls on the singles about spending time

The days confined within the walls were good,
The days given the evening curfew were good,
The days without the handy evil were good...
