Know

Awake all night again, seeking some truth

Peace of mind

I keep losing pieces of my mind

To the never ending idiocy that I possess

I grow tired of making the same mistakes over and over again

Would it be too much to ask for heaven to smile on me?

Even a brief moment in time

I would give anything to escape -for a time- what I will eventually have to endure

Just to hold myself up

Losing an uphill battle every second

I am lost

In a world and a wall that I have placed around myself


When the veil of mist lifts and you can all see inside of me

You will run for your sanity


And you will hide

Escaping what I cannot

You will know then what I could never say or show

Even to myself

Simply

I cannot allow it to hurt anyone else


The heart, the soul of a reptile

The stranger that none of you can know

Is the one that knows you so well
