[March 6, 2017]

I fell asleep listening to the voices
In my dying dreams I fell victim to my own poison
They tried to tell me but I was too ignorant
I wouldn't listen to anything but my arrogance

Time passes, lingering thoughts
Empty dreams, endless regrets
Pain and sorrow, shattered happiness
Broken bonds and forgotten misery

Enveloping innocent minds like a curse
I'm breaking apart, a tortured hurt
Endless tears in a bottomless pool
A waterfall of agony for a fool

The cascade of memories settles in
A canvas of dreams I no longer remember
Crumbling thoughts from a life I've left behind
Becoming something more in a land of lies

It's too late to change my mistakes
I simply bear the burden of endless hate
It's a vicious cycle of broken hearts
And I was the first to shatter apart
