My head is hurting From all the wondering How can I go on After everything is gone One by one the links break The picture disappears So do the fears Overwhelmed I’m numb Thru life I will wonder Down the path of failure A foot before the other Going on with no care A destination with no one there But a voice says it isn’t fair Suppressing, can’t face the healing Running, cause it’s not worth staying Careless, nothing is worth saving Living cause its not my time for dying Feeling so empty Yet it’s so heavy But deep inside I hear the voice The voice that doesn’t give up The eyes that don’t recognize the man in the mirror The heart trying to beat thru the clutter A part wants to get better But I see no reason to try harder Unmotivated, why should I go further Nothing left from the past The future seems even dimmer Thru life I will wonder Down the path of failure A foot before the other Going on with no care A destination with no one there But a voice says it isn’t fair As it cries out its last whisper Just before it drowns within Something happens there’s a glimmer Just a spark to light the dark But it catches, it explodes In an instance I’m lost in the flames I wake to the sound of a voice The words are my own The whisper is now laughter The lost has been found The veil has been burnt to the ground Saved by that sound

The Voice Within
My head is hurting From all the wondering How can I go on After everything is gone One by one the links break The picture disappears So do the fears Overwhelmed I’m numb Thru life I will wonder Down the path of failure A foot before the other Going on with no care A destination with no one there But a voice says it isn’t fair Suppressing, can’t face the healing Running, cause it’s not worth staying Careless, nothing is worth saving Living cause its not my time for dying Feeling so empty Yet it’s so heavy But deep inside I hear the voice The voice that doesn’t give up The eyes that don’t recognize the man in the mirror The heart trying to beat thru the clutter A part wants to get better But I see no reason to try harder Unmotivated, why should I go further Nothing left from the past The future seems even dimmer Thru life I will wonder Down the path of failure A foot before the other Going on with no care A destination with no one there But a voice says it isn’t fair As it cries out its last whisper Just before it drowns within Something happens there’s a glimmer Just a spark to light the dark But it catches, it explodes In an instance I’m lost in the flames I wake to the sound of a voice The words are my own The whisper is now laughter The lost has been found The veil has been burnt to the ground Saved by that sound
