Call

By Laura Dee October 27, 2014 Echoes answer my call to arms This majesty I couldn't harm Maybe that's my tragic flaw I never killed my dated laws I cannot flex until I break I'm doomed to repeat my mistakes Feels so hopeless underground Desperately escape the sound Though my laughter may contend Pass me by my fleeting friends It gets me through the worst of days Forgetting what I gave away I drown it out when I'm alone Days I won't pick up the phone I'm stuck in here with all I know Seems my wheels are just for show Trapped and alone, this chaos within It's hard to say where I begin So leave the lights, I am the night Please save me from my tainted sight I pray one day this madness will seem The faded ghost of a really bad dream Until that day, I'm numbing the pain Still figuring out if I'm going insane I'm not your brother I'm not your son So don't call my name It'll never be the same again
