Keep dreaming

Debating taking this miserable life away
Coming up with 1,000 useless reasons,
You said you couldn't think of what to say
In these kind of fucked up situations.
Describe yourself in 3 full sentences
Without pausing for any thought,
Try tearing down the hardened fences
That you constructed, that you made wrought!...

Lying on this bed dosing in my head
I swim in these apathetic moments.
Echoes of summers past lay dead
As the inner voices make sense.
If I had anything to give I'd give it,
But the hurt has tainted all I have...
It seems hate has taken every bit
Of me that was human...
Remember to keep screaming
Remember to keep dreaming...

My heart is a bloody fist caught in a noose
Engraved with shards of broken tempers,
I'm a psychotic killer when I let loose
Walking on these scolding embers.
Death pence, pray to the heavens below
For the talent of demonic rage I vent.
All these dancing words will ever show
Is my conviction, addiction, imprisonment...

Lying on this bed dosing in my head
I swim in these apathetic moments.
Echoes of summers past lay dead
As the inner voices make sense.
If I had anything to give, I'd give it
Remember to stay human
And kids
Remember to keep screaming
Remember to keep dreaming...

A casket inhabited by my violent soul
Is a box with 10,000 raging souls inside.
Sometimes I just loose all control
And hunt for someone who in I can confide.
Usually I'm drowning with a fake smile
In an ocean of expectations and neglect,
I've been dying within with every mile
On this lonely road of others reject.

Lying on this bed dosing in my head
I swim in these apathetic moments.
Echoes of summers past lay dead
As the inner voices make sense.
I pray to a mute God who prays he speaks,
I wish upon a bright star of light pollution
I cry to just slip away
Without a word...
Kids; don't ever get like me
Remember to stay true
Remember to stay you
Remember to keep screaming
And remember most of all
To remember to keep dreaming...
