Letter To My Past Self

Rückblende

In these moonlit hours
I lay here, my thoughts racing
Sometimes it's hard to handle
The realities I am facing

My mind is over-tired
Yet my thoughts keep me awake
It's just the way I'm wired
It feels as if there's no escape

Flashbacks hit me like a flash flood
I'm drowning in my memories
My wounds have opened, there is blood
Pouring from my arteries

As the Crimson river runs
It feels like do or die, this battle
The journey's never any fun
When you're up a creek without a paddle

I see everything so vividly
The visions that dance before my eyes
I'm overcome with melancholy
As I whimper soft cries

Then as quickly as it came
The feeling is gone, I'm no longer numb
My body's shaking dissipates
As I brace myself for when the next wave comes
