Comatose

Gaining muscle Restraining lies, It was time for a new beginning. And though it pierced unmercifully, the dagger still won this round. Fresh blood eliminates the guilt and the forgiveness plunges into the ground an eery waltz is the only sound- remembered from the memory, where good met a horror story and like a one hit wonder forgotten. Like the sound of your transparent voice, the scold of surroundings and the walls' whispers- belting out the truth But they don't matter anymore The microphone shattered and your hearts beating 3 times as fast you don't seem to remember- A comatose dream- inexplicable. The regrets of the other half, reversing into the cursed walls- Are endless, pointless. Sympathy wasn't ever an option- and with an easy way out- Blame. Guilt becomes all else And while your hand points out, three fingers point right back. When all is gone, It's done The end of the storm has lightened And now the sun lies- high in the sky- seeing all truth but you still sit there, smiling- forgetting, one by one they fall, drop down the stairs, no railing. And trying to pick it all back up, you kick my back. Losing balance seeing those eyes for the finale And I drop it all, hit the ground And it took that fall To realize at all That Ive given up And there's more to come.
