| "Awake is my horror, realized is my fear..." |
Screams Unheard.
They all think I'm fine, that I'm feeling great
But deep inside, there is a void none can sate
Growing and strengthening, draining all emotion
Of course, I cannot stop the events I set in motion
Events once cause by silly, foolish mistakes
Sending all infantile notions of love to their graves
And perhaps I may follow, my spirit may find sleep
Until that moment though, once can only weep.
Demons shout and scream, their voices a haunting melody
Of all my fears incarnate, for which there is no remedy
Seeds of doubt now sown, burnt by fires of cleansing rage
Excoriating all, 'cept for the bars of my comforting cage
A cage I cannot escape, a prison for the sullen
Stamina drooping, my senses now duller
In this twisted realm of madness and despair
Nothing ever seems right, nothing ever seems fair
Let the world overtake me and drown all hope soon
May my family put me to rest, may my friends forget the loon
A madman in a suit, the daemon in angel's guise
Briars dig into cold flesh, razor blades heralds of his demise.
Do they listen? No! I am quiet, too keen to go
Back home, back to be safe, but there is no
Escape from reality, a grim, unending realization
That I am truly alone, save for the manifestation
Of screams unheard, wishes that will never be granted
One can only watch, as happiness is supplanted
With visions of joyful depression, a dull, warm cloak
Against the horrors of this world; one very twisted joke
In which men live and die in the blink of an eye
Perhaps after all, I truly am the punchline
Crimson rivers pouring from wrists or a bullet to the brain?
Anything, please! I'd do anything to stop this pain...
Laughs behind my back, voices mock and jeer
Awake is my horror, realized is my fear
That I have truly expired, another person thrown
Into fiery climes below and warped realms unknown
No reason for living, no reason to stay
If only to dig my tomb on dark Winter's day
Only then I pass over, into starry, endless night
Out of mind I will be, and forever out of sight.
