Over Taken By This Dream
Silence comforts my surroundings
It withers away my only thoughts.
Analyzing this over-rated illusion.
Struggling to realize this fate.
The question that haunts me still remains
Am I being over-taken by this dream?
Slowly devouring all my thoughts
Sedation isn't the only answer
but just a simple way to stop my thinking
God forgive me, my sins have drowned me
My answer for survival is still unknown
Am I being over-taken by this dream?
Thinking negative while pain inflicts me
Hoping to discover complete awareness
Complete failure, with scars to remind me
All alone, subconsciously consuming memories
The question that haunts me, will never be answered
Am I being over-taken by this dream?
