I still SCREAM
At these images that haunt me.
With nothing left to lose
I still choke my sanity.
Where have I gone?
When will this all end?
I cannot seem to shed
These addictions that will
Tear me apart.
I have been through it all
With you, and yet
I willingly come back for more.
Just to torture my soul
Because I cannot relinquish
The darkness that still
Hides deep inside.
I have changed,
Or so I lie to myself
As I follow you down again.
These dreams that
Have stolen all my nightmares away
Are nothing more than
The memories of a greater time.
So I sit alone
With my arms outstretched
And SCREAM
At your image that
Still haunts me.
