The stars that shine above my head
are like a thousand dreams and words unsaid.
the moon reflecting the suns bright rays
as i read my book and the page it frays.
tell me how if so unsure
that maybe you could show me more
there is a light unseen but pale
my book it reads 'thou shall not fail'
page by page it burns my hands
is it only me that understands?
every other word tells me fate
while all the others just reflect my hate
i slam shut this book of shame
as it burns, orange flame
all thats left is ash and bone
all this just to keep me from being alone
the bones they fit the puzzle of my past
i watch knowing that this day is my last
deep into sorrow and close to death
i can feel the heat of hell's dark breath
suddenly gasping for air i reach into the night
as the voices and the demons struggle and they fight
my head is spinning my spell is in reverse
and i see myself on my back lying inside this hearse
stop my nightmares stop them all
make them go before asleep i fall
next time maybe i wont wake
as my skin crawls and i start to shake
i cant take this for another night
in my mind a constant fight
this night i will pray for the very last time
as i take hold of my single lifeline
please God don't let me gasp one more single breath of air
i take hold of my pain and on your name i swear
so take my life before i take my own
please God don't let me die alone ....
