I Awake To Darkness (Part 1)

As I lay awake with my eyes closed
The scent reminds me of a passionate rose
I rise to my feet and begin to walk
The spirits in my room begin to talk
Listening closely to what they all say
I collapse to my knees and start to pray
They taunt and torture my mind and spirit
Tears of blood I cry and I fear it
How do I survive, how do I live
Please dear spirits, please forgive
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
Fear is what I have for the future unknown
As I stand back up and open my eyes
The world around me is filled with lies
Demon and Angel blood is coarsing through my viens
My heart is racing as I teleport to the plains
A silent and dead field lies in front of me
In the center a castle as old as can be
I walk slowly towards the cold
The castles structure was stable and bold
As I open the door a chill runs down my spine
Darkness and Depression is all that I can find
I clear the building with one quick sweep
Growing tired I collapse and I fall asleep...
