Creek in the sheets

My heart begins to sink
As my skin begins to quiver
I've been swept to the brink
By regrets flowing like a river 
So what am I to think 
As the cold world let's me shiver
Stains mark like ink
Where pain became a fissure
There's no one else to blame 
As my blood begins to simmer
And against this waking shame 
No nightmare could be so bitter
So I fold up the remains 
Of a story I can't consider 

My hallowed soul can't bare 
What can't be washed away 
Because even in deepest prayer 
There's words I just can't say
So if I'll never clear the air 
Then I know I just can't stay stay

The bed is wet
My heart's aflame
I cannot forget
What time erased
Memories are set
And the feelings won't drain
So I'll make a bet 
Against the rain 
One last cigarette 
And I'll be unchained
