|
Hidden to the naked eye |
|
Poisoned by atrocities |
|
Slow death seeps rotting out of the soil |
|
An empty shell of his former self |
|
A breathing corpse, a ghost alive |
|
The constant onslaught of pity and guilt |
|
That can drive a man to take his own life |
|
Medication blunting the pain |
|
Deaden the urge to escape |
|
To be rid of the horrors this swelling loss of insanity |
|
Only time will heal the wounds |
|
Salvation from becoming a breathing corpse |
|
A ghost alive |
|
A mind left scarred warped and mangled |
|
From the twisted faces of the dead |
|
Only time will heal the wounds |
|
Salvation from becoming a breathing corpse |
|
A ghost alive |
|
Each waking day |
|
Merely a curse in disguise |
|
Subjected to visions |
|
Of blood and murder in reprise |
|
Crushing dreams of normalcy |
|
Fleeting thoughts of perseverance |
|
Are barely enough to survive |
|
An empty shell of his former self |
|
A breathing corpse, a ghost alive |
|
The constant onslaught of pity and guilt |
|
That can drive a man to take his own life |
