Unhappy Endings

Alone standing in a crowd Screaming without being heard Fighting for the strength to breath Time is just an empty promise Memories echo through forgotten rooms An empty house that no one remembers was even there Iron fences locking the ghosts in It’s time for me to go home The sky opens to spill the tears of angels The earth groans at the searing light from heaven Illuminate my way, even if it’s only a second How did it ever come to this? Drowning in a sea of thoughts Life is all just one unanswered question People walk into hazy memories Its time for me to leave To many dreams have no meaning To much time to spare To much hopeless wandering To many unhappy endings
