This pounding silence in my head
The comfort slicing in my soul
The mindless beat keeps pulsing time
Glowing inside, my inner coal

Dead to the core, but moving still
It is my nemesis
I’ll push onward until I find
The answer to this

Inside my mind, you would get lost
The pines and rivers are covered in smog
Something lures you closer, though
This journey’s turned into slog

I drag my feet when I think of how
It chokes me though I know it not
If I don’t think and let it go
It’ll consume my very heart

Who am I anymore, I really do not know
If you ever find me, bring me back
Take the strings of my shattered heart
I know in the end it isn’t black

There may be hope for you, dear
If you don’t let them take you
So when you hear the siren’s call
That’s when the tide pulls through

I’m here watching, just to say
‘I told you so’ as soon as you fall
I wish I had the strength to fight
But they’re taking my strength, my all

If it isn’t too much to ask, I’d beg
Stay away from me
The longer you watch and soak it in
The harder you’ll have at forgetting.
