I dream all those dreams
where I hear painful screams,
those voices that clash and crash
like broken glass, is finding its way back,
I know they are only voices from my past
those were some of my biggest fear
that lasted all these years
left me in the pouring of tears,
I must face those images
no matter the disgrace
they too will turn to dust
I try never to make much of a fuse.
I ask myself over and over
why did I let them in my heart
Now, I must face the hurt that stands so near
that has been cutting away at my wellbeing,-
I'm tired of tip-toeing around in the dark
while having my mind played on
by a person that is more like a beast
that loves to feed on all my fears
they're comfortable telling me lies
just to see my spirit die.
