Wander with sunshine, claw through the night
Tangled in chaos. Demons in sightย
Trapped in a memory, nauseous with doubtย
Every layer we lift, every moment without
A sorrow or smile. The empty inside
The reasons for seeking; the reasons to hide.
ย
Your freedomโs my prison. My throat in a knotย
Choking on waves in an ocean forgot
Burning and bleeding; the scars of the past
Swallow the panic. Sleeping at last.ย
ย
The child within
Star light star bright
I wish away this pain tonight
I wish I may, Iย wish I might
Take your wish and end my fight.
ย
The whispering poison. Skin crawling with fear
Scream into silence, for all silence to hear
A shame and a horror; so many have seen
Foreign and faceless; the parts where youโve been
Fall into blackness, follow the cast
Innocence stolen. Sleeping at last.ย
ย
Sail into shadows, slide into the space
Surrender to drowning, drift into grace
Dance into terror, dive into its eyes
Transform into night, let my soul gently rise.
ย
No name for courage, no words to say
A beckoning teardrop; please take me away
Crescendo.ย ย
Reprieve.ย
A moment of lightย
The thread of eternal thatโs hidden from sight.
ย
The sirens will cease, donโt mourn what has passed
Embodying darkness. Sleeping at last.ย
