this time i feel alone
but this feeling is here for me
stangely familar
like a friend long gone
i know this face thats aged
but i cant place his name
maybe he wills tay so i can become more acquanted with his ever escaping name
but i feel as though i left him for a reason
his face is pocketed and skeletal
and his eyes are dark and shine the dull light of hoplessness
he grabs my hand and hold on tight
this is like old times, friend he says
and it comes to me
this aged face that i can recognize
and the hand that feels cold but i know it well
the name is coming and i feel scared
i want to run from him
make him stop from touching me
i dont want to stare in his eyes anymore
and if i look abck he will be there
grinning the greapers grin of a man with a secret
he wants me back
and i thought i ran far enough away
he is coming closer
and i can smell him still
the smell of lost dreams
and lonely nights
he walks with me
and sometimes people notice him there
they tell by the dull light that my eyes take
like the light in his
or maybe they just notice im cold and shivering
i remember him now
i knew him well
dont let him take me back to his hell
the whispers were enough
and there will be more
the whispers associated with this man
and his many guises
he has a mask for every person he steals
he is becoming one with me
and i cant escape
he grabs my hand
this is like old times he says
and my hand is cold too
he pulls me closer
and embraces me
he found me again and he doesnt want to let go of his best friend
Drive down this road
I have half a tank
and my mind is wandering
I wonder how far this will take me
there are kids waiting for the bus
I feel like driving
I’ve played this song 4 or 5 times now
each time is like the last
I don’t want to go home
I want to drive until I can think straight again
there’s nothing in me anymore
I have no energy
and my head hurts
I’m so tired
I’m always tired
sleep is welcoming to me
I don’t feel in sleep
sleep the day away
no more pain
wake up and face another
one more day
I have half a tank
I wonder how far my mind wants to wander…
