what is the reason?

My eyes are burning
Just like my heart,
And my skin
And my mind

Since I have no place to go,
I will always be behind.

Is it those showers,
The pinpricks of heat
That turn my skin
Into a raging inferno?

I will always be behind,
Since I have no place to go.

Perhaps its those long nights
Alone by myself
With only my thoughts,
Which often get too loud.

I wish to drift away,
Far away on a cloud.

Maybe it's the way you talk,
So frustrating, yet intoxicating
Theres no wonder I'm still here
Wishing you could stay.

Far away on a cloud,
I wish to drift away.

Those comments could be it,
The problem at hand,
The 'nice' words you sing
Ring on my dead ears.

Erase all my memories,
Please, take away my fears.

There are so many possibilities
To this terrible ordeal
It could take years to end,
It might even be centuries.

Please, take away my fears,
Erase all my memories.
