There is a place
Where empty runs
Out of room
A place where
High can’t climb
Any higher

There is a low
Where you can’t get
Any lower
There is an in
Without an out
Down without up

There is an out
Where you cannot
Get back in
And there’s an up
You haven’t seen
For so long

Don’t you forget
Your dreams are schemes
You slept through
Now you’re awake
What can you do
For a break

There is a place
Where no darkness
Can run to
Light holes in space
Shining on you
In your face

Empty cannot hide
When something comes
Rushing in
Filling the void
Giving you form
Once again
