Unrequited Nightmare

I felt like I was on fire

I couldn't get any higher.

As the smoke choked at my lungs

I was getting too close to the sun.

But I was too consumed inside

By the darkness that wouldn't hide

From the light out in front of me

I saw a clear path ahead of me.

Mind ablaze by those thoughts

I felt that this was fate

That it wasn't all for naught.

But suddenly I was there

And I couldn't help but stop and stare

At the pain you've been through

Suddenly I felt the struggle too.

And my eyes were open wide

To my ignorance inside

That this inferno was burning hot

A scarring purge that would leave a mark.

Lord please end her nightmares!

As I was being sheltered once again and

Even I'm not safe from sin and

Lord please end her nightmares!

I thought that I was flying high but I was really truly falling.

Woke up in the night

3 AM to be exact.

I couldn't help but feel it, this

Monumental heart attack.

Her inner demons closing in and

Even I'm not safe from sin.

My world turned on its head when

I'm not even sure if I'm sick here.

Oh please end those nightmares!

Even I'm not safe from sin and

Oh please end those nightmares!

I can't do this alone

The high has crashed me to the stones.

The ashes of my soul fading away

The fire a distant memory today.

A new spark is igniting within.

Today He has saved me from sin.
