Standing hear on the wrong side of tracks , on my arm . my living hell addiction . stabbing and searching the needles in vain . in my room I save a spoon a tiny lagoon I used to draw my happiness from . but now it is dry a desert I stepped over my dying corpse to hear crying , the distant voice of my wife and child lonely, lost and alone.

I embrace my insanity because I'm the only one will . I try to hold on while evil , evil tries to beat down my walls of love , love I try to preserve inside of me , with out it I know I'm dead . Everyone in life who I need , I do meet. Like little blessings that kiss my spirit and inspire me to carry on . As the demons that society hold no to so they can feel good about themselves by belittling kindness and love . why ,why ,why can't they see love can't be bought or sold ,it's free , free like air ,sun and the wind that kisses my face in the morning .

I embrace my darkness that holds me night after night . The torment of life times that come from the shadows of the corners of my mind . To my demons I curse and take back my control ,I have spat in my tormentors face ,still I love their evil for it tout me how to love.

Brian's prayer

I embrace my darkness that holds me night after night . The torment of life times that come from the shadows of the corners of my mind . To my demons I curse and take back my control ,I have spat in my tormentors face ,still I love their evil for it tout me how to love.

Tree have fallen all around me but they don't make a sound silhouettes of sadness lying All around There's no mirror in the bathroom so I can't see my face just a lonely image trapped inside this place Where did my life where did I go so wrong did the devil made me do it or was I acting all alone Years of laughter Echo loudly in my mind still searching for happiness I can't seem to find Can I tell you a secret, no because if I do it will no longer be one But if all my wrongs were stones I could build a castle In my mind my thoughts continue to wrestle with yesterday's dreams in today's reality of what I have become a lost soul afraid of living or life My body is possessed by demons who are caringly caressing a condemned spirit I look at the world with blurred vision only seeing distorted images of life that's so misunderstood.

The Prison in my mind

Tree have fallen all around me but they don't make a sound silhouettes of sadness lying All around There's no mirror in the bathroom so I can't see my face just a lonely image trapped inside this place Where did my life where did I go so wrong did the devil made me do it or was I acting all alone Years of laughter Echo loudly in my mind still searching for happiness I can't seem to find Can I tell you a secret, no because if I do it will no longer be one But if all my wrongs were stones I could build a castle In my mind my thoughts continue to wrestle with yesterday's dreams in today's reality of what I have become a lost soul afraid of living or life My body is possessed by demons who are caringly caressing a condemned spirit I look at the world with blurred vision only seeing distorted images of life that's so misunderstood.
