about

a dark song about dark thoughts... The demons are never very far...

lyrics

At night I roam these sheets and search in vain for sleep
beneath the warm folds that tie me up… I scream.
My demons come at me again
With future ghosts and long lost friends,
they tear at all that I believe…
How easily confused I’ve become…

As I walk within these walls
I’ve locked around my heart
I hear only echoes of my doubts…
They dance in glee around my Muse
Who holds the keys but lies abused,
Crushed and silent beneath their shouts…
How easily confused I’ve become…

When windowsills become a dream
And no one seems to hear you scream,
Temptation shows a cruel face
To one who’s lost his faith…
Oh, and how the flight seems so right
From up above the city lights
Beckon you to jump right in…
Is it really such a sin?

As the dawn breaks through this haze
I lay exhausted in a pool
Of sweat, and sheets,
and silence craved
Amidst the ruins of last night
I try to find the will to fight-
But it gets harder every day…
