Is this a dream or nightmare Dreaming for you to save me Pull me out from this slumber Put your hands on my chest and revive me Sternum breaking Resuscitation failing These blankets feel like thorns Pillows now rocks at the bottom of cliffs Why do I feel so blind I was more awake when I was dreaming If this is a glimpse into the afterlife My eyes are wide open I haven’t been the same since Put your hands deep inside me Tell me my hearts still beating That im not just bleeding Bleeding out Tell me my callused heart is normal That we’re both the same Use your touch to cauterize these wounds Immolate my human form To the voices heard beyond the void Sever the strings that keep me from being who I’m meant to be Is there anyone there Answer my cries Release me from the vastness of this madness And with dreary eyes, my cracking spine I’m taking back what’s mine As I slowly watch your kingdom ******* fall We have to adapt Maybe I’m the only one Unwilling to be one who just sits back in the dark, **** I'll take back what was mine Broken reality falls down, crushing it’s weight on me, the world is my enemy am I the only one Stuck in between; the mountains and the sea, yeah that’s where you’ll find me. At the bottom of the ocean or the top of the peak. Always positive or negative, no solace or peace Look into my eyes, they're reflecting your fear from the past year But don’t worry, this is not the end No, this is not the end Believe me or not, but this reality is not the end Crawling to the calls beyond the grave It’s life after this one, not the rest that I crave My tomb is more to me than a bed It’s a place where I may lay my weary head Some say this place is full of dread But I’ve always resonated more with the dead Those who fear death are already dead Those afraid of living will never survive We’re all dying on the inside I fail to cry yet I cry to feel What a waste What a disappointment I’m sorry I was something you never appreciated My soul will walk on the plane of plains Mistakes made with regrets of my past Counting down the days till I pass I knew my happiness could never last But in this new place emotions are non existent This is what I’ve been waiting for Given to me anew, my new existence I listened to the voices that beckoned to me Im finally free To be with those on the other side of earth This is my rebirth Somewhere with souls like my own A place I can finally call home

Awake yet dreaming
Is this a dream or nightmare Dreaming for you to save me Pull me out from this slumber Put your hands on my chest and revive me Sternum breaking Resuscitation failing These blankets feel like thorns Pillows now rocks at the bottom of cliffs Why do I feel so blind I was more awake when I was dreaming If this is a glimpse into the afterlife My eyes are wide open I haven’t been the same since Put your hands deep inside me Tell me my hearts still beating That im not just bleeding Bleeding out Tell me my callused heart is normal That we’re both the same Use your touch to cauterize these wounds Immolate my human form To the voices heard beyond the void Sever the strings that keep me from being who I’m meant to be Is there anyone there Answer my cries Release me from the vastness of this madness And with dreary eyes, my cracking spine I’m taking back what’s mine As I slowly watch your kingdom ******* fall We have to adapt Maybe I’m the only one Unwilling to be one who just sits back in the dark, **** I'll take back what was mine Broken reality falls down, crushing it’s weight on me, the world is my enemy am I the only one Stuck in between; the mountains and the sea, yeah that’s where you’ll find me.
