Hourglass, Comatose of Memories

Just send me, send me to the moon a free pass to a carnival of lost gravity I just want to be alone Time is passing through the hourglass can you flip it over please I wish I had an eternity but what favors me doubles back to be my sworn enemy Why now did a comatose of memories befall me No one needs to see me weakened and shaky lonely tears filling up these hollow eyes One day too late, a lifetime mistake hese words of mine always seem to grow legs and run within writing The people sit and stare and wonder if I'm alright but with fake smiles and the right responses mask my true expression the arms of sorrow swallow me whole, a bear hug Take me, break me in half broken inside, feeling cold as snow When will this be over, after the rain falls away allow me to shoot the sky and when the sky cries permit me to bleed and writhe in pain crying along with it
