If my days could rhyme its all worth it,
even if it's just I who gets to read it.

After a whole day to write it all over,
undoing my pain saying things much slower.

One day I'll love and be loved back,
one day I'll be there out of dreamland.
There awake

I've drifted away from warmth. The fire within me has been suffocated.  The cold has made my body it's home again.  
The rays of the sunlight don't burn me anymore.  The dark and gloomy nights don't seem to feel the same.  The loud voices don't scream at me anymore. They talk to me, because I'm finally listening. There the only ones that want to speak to me.  I'm finally back home. I'm finally home where emotions don't live, warmth is unheard of, and happiness, well that's a joke, if we ever did say any of them. I'm home where pain is the father,  and love is the mother. The mother is never around. Tears are the sibling I never had.  The monsters are awake, and they can't be lullaby to sleep. There here to stay, and they want to eat.  They sweat blood, and eat meat.  They've got me broken, but I'm still awake . I'm still fighting,  but I want to sleep.

You're a dangerous place
but I can't help it
your darkness intrigues me
you pull me in
I find myself coming back to you
you change me
how I feel
how I look
how I think
in silence you're all I hear
lost in darkness around you
so powerful
so strong
something, someone no one understands
unfamilarity but I want more
you drain me
you take every ounce of energy I have
but you're above all
your knowledge
your ability
I must know more
you're my bestfriend
you're my enemy

Can you hear them whispering
There inside my brain
Can you hear them tinkering
Trying to shake lose what is sane
Can you hear them Clamouring
There inside my mind
Can you hear them favouring
With sadness all they find
Can you hear them plotting
There inside my cranium
Can you hear them knotting
All my thoughts till thier alien
Can you hear them screaming
There inside my brain
Can you hear them scheming
They are driving me insane


The voices here inside my skull
Are always chattering, never a lull
They are bent on my destruction
At first it was a sweet seduction
Now it's a roaring wave
Trying my head to cave
I can hear them as plain as day
Can you hear them what they say
Those voices in my head
All them yelling, one thing said
They only want me dead
