A place to stay

"You can't go back to your own home or your old job or your old life. none of those things exist. up there , you don't exist... You'll just have to make the best of it down here, in the sewers and the magic and the dark." And then, marquis smiled, hugely, whitely: a gleaming grin, monumental in its insincerity.
-NEVERWHERE by neil gaiman

In living it, is a dead end
this is where i never thought it would lead
In as much as we wanted it to be sweet
the thought was just too sour to bend

To juxtapose is a foolish sigh
a gripping claw inside
i lost sight of another
a run towards a doorway

Yes, where there is Life
there is Death
and in between, there's Time
and Love is overshadowed by everything else

Alone and back again
back at a place without rules of time and space
In a dark, damp and frigid tunnel
dark, damp and frigid

... and a song mellowing inside my mind;

And there's a Danger in Loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.
There's a reason why people don't stay who they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
