I can feel it
draining
the blood from my veins
rewriting
the pathways of my mind
climbing
into my very bones
until
even the marrow is infected
turning black
with this poison
And I'm tired, so tired
of trying to tell the story right
murmuring the words scripted by those
who just don't want to deal
with the real
the epic darkness that's part of this life
I breathe in
hoping to dispel
the remnants
the bits and pieces
of dream dust
long crumbled into a fine powder
having since become
only husks
vacant shells
never to hold light
again
And I'm tired, so tired
of trying to explain away the pain
wasting words on ears that don't want to listen
heads so in the clouds
no room left for doubts
can't accept the broken ones anymore
So I sit in my lonely little room
waiting
for time to pass
morning to day
afternoon to night
wondering
if I will be met again with
demons
unhinged parts of me rising up
from the depths
deeper than my soul
deeper
than I ever want to go
Let me be tired, please
just let me lay
Let me be tired, I plead
I've no words left to say
Nothing's left to say
