Shattered Dreams

Broken thoughts run through my head

Like pieces of glass cutting away making me wish I were dead

To cease to exist and stop the pain inside

To forget every moment and leave it all behind

I am so lost and in a dark and lonesome place

What's this I see? Blood trickling down my face?

How did I get here and why can't I leave

My chest feels so tight that I feel like I can't breathe

I am trapped in my head and I can't get out

You'd better go before you're found

I've never been afraid before

Now there a stronger influential force

It has all come down to the fear

I can't help but cry these bloody tears
