Hardly Able to Bear...

In the dark I wandered, my emptiness,
With blackness leading my soul
I stumbled in breach with my open arms,
Too dark too, gone to console
I was looking and searching for someone who’d loved me
A knight that would shield me from all that does hunt me
A savior, the champion to burn out the demons
I ended up loosing my soul.
Wanting and screaming the death in my chest
I prayed that someone would save me
Betrayed, the body of emptiness
The sorrow to come would be…
Would be… Would be…


Hardly able to bear….

I knew it was real when the rain came
The lump that grew in my throat
I know I’m too old for this game
Another indelible coat


I believed that someone could save me
And make the monsters recede
I thought that there was honor in this world
And someone who could see me,
When I bleed………


The demons the devils they rip at my skin
The water is putrid so all must dive in..
Washing and scrubbing the guilt in my mouth
I knew the waiting for tomorrow, would be…
Would be… Would be…


Hardly able to bear…

Now I know the beast is waiting
To crawl out its’ white, wooly skin
I don’t know how or where to escape it
Now that it knows what I’ve been
Still thrashing and screaming for the daylight to find me
I don’t have the strength to spare
In darkness so empty and the death that surrounds me
I guess I am destine to wander


In deep sullen corners of yesterdays I try to block out the bite
Of razor black teeth that now haunting me
Will fade in the dawn of the night.
Redeemer believer clawing for rescue
Lay me down to rest
Betrayed, the body of emptiness Perhaps it would be for best…
