Without

Heartbroken memories, hang over my head Keeping inside, the feelings I dread What makes me bitter, is that which I am Who's to say I belong, in this ever wasting land Cut up by realities, alone and afraid I know in my heart, the souls I've betrayed Too many to mention, though I probably should Lift up the one's, who've not understood Strength is the trait, the goal is release Help me my friend, that I may find peace To live with the guilt, these hasty bones dry Relief from above, or surely I'll die The absence of time, the weight on my mind Excuses made known, yes I've fallen behind I've tried hard to brake, yet the puzzle remains Surrounded, outnumbered, each step is in vain A face in the crowd, a solitary shell What more could there be, it's sure hard to tell So pointless to stay, the one left behind My heart is now cool, my eye's are now blind I wonder can they see, that I'm not who I am Do I dare mention, what makes up this man Their ears will not listen, these 'friends' I've acquired My words are all wasted, my mouth is so tired So I wait for the memories, still yet to be Who will end this story, I pray it's not me...
