Monster Mind

by HollywoodSmile   Feb 15, 2008


My life plays on a screen
i watch myself recite the script
the monsters take the scene
i can still feel the breath on my neck
no, its still there, still breathing
theyre getting closer
hearts, still pumping
like a drum still beating
the monsters slink into the shadows
as the sun comes to my window
but the window falls away
and cage bars take its place
im stuck inside a body
but watching from outside
reality has no place
no corner in which to hide
i cant control it anymore
theyre spinning, spinning
i cant see them anymore
theyre pushing, pushing
as i fall to the floor
theyre words enter my mind
but i cant hear a sound
im leaving life behind
as i fall to the ground
my body lay below
in world i cant begin to know
but the monsters, back again
as though they never left
and nothing still feels real
because my veins dont bleed
the pain isnt there
im fading, fading
and the monsters taking the scene
theres nothing i can do
but watch form deep inside
