Waking Nightmare



Can anybody hear me?
I open my mouth to scream
yet my throat closes

Liquid rivers run down my cheeks
reminding me of the tears you once cried
and what we were

Oh can you understand what I'm saying?
because I know I can't
can anyone save me?

Am I to be lost forever in this silent horror?
even though I try
I know my smile is gone

I'm just so tired of pretending
I wish someone would break
these chains of pain and regret

The sun turns blood red
as icy fingers creep up my spine
please give me something to hold onto

For I'm drifting away
I feel a darkness deep in me
why do I feel such utter despair?

I used to believe
but now doubt consumes me
never ending night

My eyes slowly close
my chains are so heavy
pulling me ever closer to the cold ground

I just want to fall away
from this haunting past
that threatens to stay forever etched in my mind
