some days I'm awake Others I'm asleep Try to relive the moment But unfortunately I'm too weak Asleep last for months Painful and dark Treading like a ghost in chains I can't get very far Blood is red And as warm as humidity Sticky and dead There is no serenity Being awake Is no better than asleep For that's when /they/ come The voices that scream Plenty of energy But nothing to do Seeing a door open Yet no one comes through Feeling as if Someone's touching your spine But you blink and realize It was only your mind These are the tortures Of awake and asleep Flipping back and forth As my sanity leaks

Awake and Asleep
some days I'm awake Others I'm asleep Try to relive the moment But unfortunately I'm too weak Asleep last for months Painful and dark Treading like a ghost in chains I can't get very far Blood is red And as warm as humidity Sticky and dead There is no serenity Being awake Is no better than asleep For that's when /they/ come The voices that scream Plenty of energy But nothing to do Seeing a door open Yet no one comes through Feeling as if Someone's touching your spine But you blink and realize It was only your mind These are the tortures Of awake and asleep Flipping back and forth As my sanity leaks
