jolted from your sleep like a dead engine
panicked, you reach into the abyss for some sort of comfort
only to find that every liquid fantasy dissipates upon your touch
this forest of dreams has become a woodland of nightmares
eyes bleeding tears as the mist envelops you
it shoves you to the floor
screaming every insecurity back into your swollen skull
transparent devils dance at your feet
laughing as they point to a tombstone engraved with your name
it seems like there's no hope for you
yes
even the dreamcatcher above your bed lost faith
but there's something keeping you alive
continue your fight
grab my hand in the darkness
for I am the comfort you have been searching for
because I too scream silence
nothing but silence
into the fear of the night
