The Disappearing Floor

I hoped to find the right in the wrong
Reach out to touch the truth
Lost among the smoke and mirrors
My balance won’t return
When all that there was is gone
In the dark before the struggling dawn
Standing on a disappearing floor
I saw the future fading fast
While I did battle with the past
Moments slow to slip away
My expectations hang around my neck
As I obsess to be anywhere but where I’m at
Standing on a disappearing floor
