Midnight Lonliness
My inspiration comes from my shattered heart
Of all my emotions strung apart
Distance valleys and shining falls
Back me up against mirrored walls
Shattered mirrors fall apart from the walls
Muffled noises and drowned~out calls
Life around my sweet fingertips
So many fake kisses against these lips
Walking alone on a vast beach
Shooting for a goal I haven't quite reached
Sinister sounds exit my four-walled past
As my life drowns my energy so fast
Midnight strikes as waves crash the rocks
Desperately trying to break my internal blocks
Barriers stop the social part of my life
Somehow uncomfortable and it doesn't feel right
Breathing in the salty mist from the sea
I'm racing through a race car Grand Prix
Going so fast and flashing visions I see
Climbing through my soul like an alone maple tree
Wondering and watching my life past me by
Constantly falling no matter how hard I try
Finding fear every corner I turn
Feeling my insides slowly burn
Sand squishing through my feet
Walking alone ~ never a treat
By myself marked and branded again
Branded for living my life in sin
Sinister voices can still be heard
Listening to invisible voices ~ feeling absurd
Watching a storm cloud jade the moon
Loneliness this year is obviously in bloom...
