What is that I hear?
Static, I can't bear
The shouts are shattering
The sounds clattering

Hiding in the dark
Ears covered
Eyes closed tightly
Heart pounding

What did I do?
To deserve such treatment
Never in my life
Had I been harsh

The dark reality
Is fast approaching
Dreams gone
Shattered into pieces

Lifeless eyes
Devoid of any emotion
Stares straight ahead
Not really seeing

What is that I hear?
Lies from your mouth
Covering my ears
Until I'm deaf

Scratching them up
Until they're bleeding
Just to escape
The pain to come

Running away
From the monsters
That lurk in the shadows
Is never an option

They will never stop
To hurt each one of us
Until nothing's left
Of what's inside

The torment's not finished yet
The battle's just starting
Head turning around
Mind splattering

What is that I hear?
Pain from your words
Covering my heart
Until there's no more...
