I am shaking Fearful, as the shouts grow louder Every breath leaves me aching The hourglass has begun to fall slower and slower by the hour Reality has crumbled into mere dust sliding through my fingers Wordless, soundless, screaming Avoiding the empty, shattered mirrors Left to pace between thoughts, as my hands do the cleaning I cut my arms on glass, but I'm not seeing the bleeding Dripping down my arms from my veins are jokes gone wrong Sitting, in the glass poured over me, I'm leaping It won't be too long I've done a bad thing and I can't be forgiven I am smiling at the spots in my vision that look like stars I'm dancing, swaying, to an unknown etheral rthym The whispers are seeping through my gray walls Words have become a mush of meaningless ******* I hear the floors loosen and soon I am falling through Ego tandem videre stellas Ad astra per aspera

Ad Astra Per Aspera
I am shaking Fearful, as the shouts grow louder Every breath leaves me aching The hourglass has begun to fall slower and slower by the hour Reality has crumbled into mere dust sliding through my fingers Wordless, soundless, screaming Avoiding the empty, shattered mirrors Left to pace between thoughts, as my hands do the cleaning I cut my arms on glass, but I'm not seeing the bleeding Dripping down my arms from my veins are jokes gone wrong Sitting, in the glass poured over me, I'm leaping It won't be too long I've done a bad thing and I can't be forgiven I am smiling at the spots in my vision that look like stars I'm dancing, swaying, to an unknown etheral rthym The whispers are seeping through my gray walls Words have become a mush of meaningless ******* I hear the floors loosen and soon I am falling through Ego tandem videre stellas Ad astra per aspera
