Nightmare

Maybe there is something wrong.
Maybe I'm insane
But every time I close my eyes I dream a life of pain.

Dark secrets, bitter lies bubble to the surface as my cold heart dies
Late at night something crawls from deep within and crushes my heart of stone
I have never known a pain so fierce
Until I close my eyes to face myself

Lost in a dream
In this life of pain
Having trouble telling fiction from fantasy
Dreams from reality

I go though the day with a smile upon my face only awaiting the dreadful night
Where I lay in such a dark place
Haunted by the images I know lurk within

Try to stay awake
Try to win
But just as these things crawl inside the dark coaxes my eyes shut
Drawing me deeper into the abyss of despair

Here in this world where nothing goes right
Here you do not receive the option to fight
So many revolting sites how I wish this was a sleepless night

Sometimes I wish I was numb
The pain could not haunt me then
Every breath I breathe feeds those things

Nothing I can do will make it leave

To win
There is no hope
To be devoured
Is all I know
