Nightmare




All the nightmares
using my name
Cries in the night
they all sound the same
One tore out my heart
I have only me to blame
I roam now alone
The night is my home

I scream as I wake
My body it shakes
as slowly it hits me I'm alone
An empty space beside me on the bed
You once called home
the sheets cry lonely
The air is cold
Everything around me now feels so old

This young soul
Has known pain beyond it's years
When expressing fear
he holds back his tears
He yearns for more
evoking emotion
The concept of Love
is now a forgotten notion

A stronger man would let go
A stronger man would let it be
I cannot let go I'm afraid
The stronger man isn't me
I lay back awake
and still I quake
alone,
No sleep....
