The dreams of darkness haunt me day and night
I succum to their hypnotic spell
Not wanting to see the real shame that I have
I overt my eyes, trying to block out the hurt forever
But I am unsuccessful
The image of my soul burning itself into ashes
Is embezzled into my mind
From the minute I close my eyes
I see only shadows of my former life
There is nothing there
Regardless of my efforts to redeem my black soul
The river of tears flows
Even though I cannot feel them
My dreams of my life coming to a screeching hault
Are too much to bear on these burdened shoulders
I am overtaken and I fall
No matter how much I try to see anything different
I cannot see for my eyes have become useless
I am lost in my dreams of hate...
