Dragged Under, Left Behind

Flashing through the night is a nightmare mixed with retrospect
Whispering relentlessly in my head
Trapped in a moment suspended in time
Caught between the things I know
Memories unfold
I'm sinking down again

I climb the mountains
As tides begin to rise
Worn and broken
Still searching endlessly for solace
Amongst the storm and wave
With every step I take
I’m losing strength and faith

Shred the tears on my face for a last time
Reaching deep within, searching for strength to regain my faith
But now I stand here, feeling worn and weak
What will light up the way if the night never ends?

Wane with the night
Writing in reminiscence of all those passing years
Yet I still weave with memories
Stitching repentance into the fabric of my dreams

Unraveling emotions
I pen my pain
Each word a thread on every page
A fault once committed by me
Still echoes in my dreams

I’ve made bad decisions
There’s no turning back
Just let me rest
There’s no starting over again

In search of self-redemption
I’ve burned the bridge
Stay isolated for solace
In a deep repentance
I lie awake
I guess these thoughts will always stay

I’m fighting the devils
Reveling in my head
As my blood clots inside of my veins
The weight of anguish, a burden to bear
Crushing down my bones
I can't shake this feeling
I fall apart

Standing in wreckage embraced by the mist
My eyes still open just to watch my mind decay
and collapse before my eyes

Sinking deep, tryna drown the ache
Still it cuts like a dagger
I fall apart

Drowned myself in repentance
But the tide never takes me away
My mind is crushing me down with its grudge
Till I fall apart
I’ve drowned in repentance
But the tide never takes me away
I’ve drowned in repentance
But the tide never takes me away
