Analysis of Banish Me
Where shall insanity banish me
for there is no pain among it's volley
sweet serenity remember me
For I hope you'll understand minds in distant lands
Across seas from the soul the heart bleeds
and there is nothing left to see but the trees around me
Where shall insanity banish me for
there is no place I'd rather be
Sweet tranqility remember me
For while silent weeps cry nevermore
and follow sheep
lay a dream down to count the weeks
Look to the sky as the days grow ever weak
So please tell me..........
where shall insanity banish me
