Trying To Escape Darkness

Little arms keep reaching up.
My soul wants to get away
From the darkness these little arms are pulling me to.
I'm trying to fight it and win.

These forces with in me
I'm trying to fight,
Trying to run away from them
And break free.
They keep pulling me
Blocking the light I'm trying to reach.
I'm their puppet.
My masters won't cut the strings.
Pulling and controlling me
Dictating the blood I need to shed.

Running away from the blood.
I'm digging myself through the darkness that falls upon me.
I'm pushing through the walls that close in on me.
I'm searching for an opening in this darkness.
I want to break free.
To find my way out of this pain
Every night I want to escape and save my soul.
I can't take it any more.
Let me escape from these tears.
