Slumber

In the night time, through the darkness comes the voices of all the pain and agony. They disguise themselves as friends who want to help but i say no and they just won't let me be. In my dreams they always haunt me show me things i can't control how do you deal with seeing someone you love die in front of you, it's like ripping out your soul. At night i try and slumber but they always visit me they awake me like the thunder just so they can mock me. At night i try and slumber But there voices break the breeze They awake me, to take me under so they can bury me. So they show me all these things and i lay there wondering if i'll wake up before it gets worse. As the dreams get more persistant And they horror comes in bursts. I can't wake up, i can't let go Claw at the walls, try to get home and as i wake up in the cold sweat im feeling defensless and alone. Why can't they let me be? Am i own worst enemy? Am i the only one who can feel these dreams? Is it all inside my head? All the feelings of the dread, and sorrow not knowing if there will be a tomorrow. Im trying get through today trying hard to find a way so when i got to bed at night a peacefull rest and on a soft pillow i will lay. At night i try and slumber but they always visit me they awake me like the thunder just so they can mock me. At night i try and slumber But there voices break the breeze They awake me, to take me under so they can bury me.
