You torture me
in the worst way
Keep me up,
Keep me awake.
Through my Head
thoughts fly around
Frightening sights,
Frightening sounds.
The Voices, the Visions
you scare me all Night
Please leave me Alone!
Let me be Free.
No rest can I get
Will you ever let
me recover, let me forget?
Release me for good
from your Suffocating hold
you choke me with Passion
you choke me with Hate
the Darkness surrounds me
it presses me down
until the Blinding Sun rises
and spins me around
the cycle continues
it goes up and down
without ever stopping
you’re keeping me bound.
