— Like a desert, so smooth — So calm, like velvet — Like wire, so taut — So stretched, like steel
— The surface is rippling — And straining and cracking — From within
— Like a bomb, just ticking — And waiting, like hours — And hours keep folding — And winding
And stretching — And deep down inside — The foundations are tearing apart — And the holes are
All gaping — Swallowing everything — Please take me out of this dream — Tension
— Nightmares like circles — Of lies all hidden — Seething and smouldering — Under the covers
— No fire, no passion — But uneasy silence — And peace — In terror I’m waiting — For the one
Great explosion — Please take me out of this dream — Tension
