Well, I was at a Christian youth retreat, and one of the activities was to paint a "Prayer Tapestry" with the other leaders (I was a leader). We couldn't speak, and after everyone was done, we walked around and looked at what the others had drawn. While doing this, a little stanza popped into my head. During the dance that night, I wrote it down, and extended it.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you:
Lost Inside my Skin
I see a blue box and I'm trapped inside the walls are blue glass, with nowhere to hide we're all on Earth, and we're stuck for the ride and there's no emergency exits
Tears of red blood fall from the eye there's a white triangle, pieces flying by Questions filling up the sky and there's no answers at all
(chorus) I want the truth not some lie an explanation, by and by a reason for me, please tell me why 'cause I'm lost inside my skin
A red road runs to where ways meet a horse and cart plod down the street from open skies fall rain and sleet and no birds fly
(chorus)
A six pointed star glows in the night a salty wave hides my sight as pictures and prayers begin to unite in my soul, and in my heart
(chorus)
(bridge) and after it all the feeling fills me through I'm 100 miles tall and all my dreams come true
(chorus x2)

Wow - that's very good, Allen! I have no idea why, but when I read the lyrics, I hear Linkin Park even though I haven't listened to their stuff in ages. =P

Well, the chorus is similar to Numb, and they use the same rhyming style. Maybe it's because I used to be a fan of theirs?
EDIT: If anyone wants to, or knows someone that might want to, I'm looking for someone to put this to music

I'm very much looking forward to hearing the result of this . . . but the question remains: who will sing? XD
