there's something lost somewhere inside

another darkened room where dreams all go to die

once more a tear drops slowly to my feet

again I recognize the triumph in defeat



so tell me what can I do when it all falls apart?

torn straight through tell me how to feel

my broken dreams a life in disarray

I shut my eyes my silence is my cell

cold sweats and nightmares keep me awake

the time keeps running down on how much I can take

ripped myself to pieces on the fragments of a dream

grim retrospective of a life torn at the seams



when the emptiness becomes too much

the voices lie I can't trust my touch

the pain of living the fear of death

you choose
