Take Me In

Post Reply New Topic

Heated nights can breathe again
this life i so restrain
of voices throbbing in my head
creating such distane
love and lost and pain and flush,
the color of my cheeks
the bleeding of my heart in this
my weekness i do reap
forever floating in this world of neverending stars
clouds and gas to choke my throat
and cover up the scars
i'm self inflicted,
crawling in the dark
a life i thought i'd never have is pulling me apart

Take me in the cave again
and blinded i do stand
again! again! i cannot win,
with soaking heart in hand

A sin, a grin, defeated moan
and now i'm on my own
to wonder how the feelings pass
carving out my hollow soul

Take me in the cave again
and blinded i do stand
again! again! i cannot win,
these leaking hands begin

so shut me out or shut me in,
either way i'll stay
and purgatory gives such grace
like petals on a grave
stand strong and tall
and face it all,
the life that i have made
Of loneliness and scarlet shame
my body melts away
To dream, and wish of days long past
My trembling heart will fade.
