metaphore for being lost inside oneself with a loved one still in hope
Come inside
Enter into me
into the broken down palace
that bears my heart

Through the doors
You can search for me
in the many neverending rooms
That one I am lost in

A peek through the shattered windows
a glance into my eyes
could show you a glimse
Of my lonely Empty SoulSoul

Take a step then another
and try to answer
my thoughts and questions
but instead of a stand still

Listen to the silence
echoing throughout the palace
a silent whisper
to quiet my screams

Look carefully around
you for the light is dim
in the dark hallways and chambers you might just miss
what you're looking for

Remember to mark your trail
you have traveled on
through all the twists and turnsturns
May let you forget the way out

After some time has passed
and still you can't find me
just get up and leave this place
for I'm not worth finding anyways

Before you go
and shut the door to my heart
know that wherever I may be hiding at least you can say you tried
to set a little light my way

But it's sad to say
that I'll remain behind
these Palace doors
all alone except for my
stirring thoughts my Empty Soul
and at last my broken heart
