Here I lay wide awake
Thoughts racing
Will I fail?
How long ‘til I blow it again?
Why do I chase this dream?
When will it become a nightmare?
A living hell of my own creation
Haunted by visions Of things that will never be
Their grip choking the very life out of me
I can't escape these shackles that bind me
Have I lost my last shred of sanity?
Is my soul so empty that I endure such torture?
Where is that merciful release that I seek?
I sit quietly by and suffer this specter
No freedom
Just a hollow joy that can not last
The day will certainly come again
That my weary heart will relive this pain
Only to cry tears alone
