Nightmares don't last forever; one day you wake up and they're gone.

I'm wounded
I'm fucking angry
The dream crashed around me
I took in the shards
With their flames
They seared my flesh
And I took in the shards
With their edges
They shredded my heart
And I took it on

I'm wounded
I'm fucking angry
If I could take this pain
And concave it's face
If I could take this pain
And bloody my fists in it's flesh
If I could take this pain
And let my anger burn it to ash
Could it just die?
Would it just let me be?

Instead of a world of hope
I lay here crippled
By the ghosts that haunt me
That shackle my ankles to wrists
And rend my flesh asunder

I'm wounded
I'm fucking angry
And when I break these chains
With my bare hands
I'll rip their throats out
With my bare hands
I'll tear their hearts from their chests
I'll laugh in the fountain of their blood
I'll hang their corpses by their toes
And watch as crows devour their flesh
I'll watch the sun bleach their bones
Then grind them to nothing but dust.
