failure
As i live in a haze What a daze to be This grayscale of life What drag to my existence Can i not alleviate My mind Will my life always Be torturous Will i always have This agonizing reminders Failures of my past To leave me awake at night Can i ever make it stop I just don't know

I can't sleep at night Somethings summoning me To the deep It's has a grip on my life All I can see is my defeat the voices in my head Is growing stronger My mind is on the bring Of collapse Demons in my head Taking grip on my mind Gaining control of my life Some one tie me down Take my brain Make this suffering end

How did we come to be here Next to each other In the night Were are the stars That shows us our love Outside the leafs flame Unusually in the darkness I am amazed by peace It is the possibility of you Asleep next to me breathing in the quiet air
