This Is My Time

Am I really this far away That no one can see or hear me Crashing form hell Under the debris I called for you I don't know your name I shouted But no one came Deeper and deeper into the darkness I will never be found Running from the demon To which I am bound. Befriend the ghost That shadows my face Befriend the lie That powers my grace Desire to never see the reflection That is hidden away The monster in my head Is gunning for it's prey I'll die for no cause I'll disappear just to end I'll put up no fight I've nothing left to defend Don't listen as I howl your name Turn away as I reach in pain Cast a shadow upon my flame I beg of you feel no shame Sweet releif is all that is asked A shadow I shall no longer cast I'm not the first and I won't be the last I can now remove my mask. This is my Time I have no mountains left to climb I peaked at my prime I have nothing left to rhyme This is my time.
