"We need to get out of here, now!"

The alley of dreams and stations,

The alley of truth and lie

Forgotten, crossed from memory

Left alone to seek

New paths and re-discovery

Between the highest pines

Want your worst enemy there just to

Stare at you feel unwanted sucked of

Such great happines...
