I.

 

     No more dreams, No less pain

     Silence moves like distant rain

 

     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

     Frozen blood in frozen veins

     A tired heart beats

     Trying to feel the warmth

     Of the lying cold deceit

     Dripping down my finger

     It struggles to maintain

     The life within its power

     Washing down the drain

 

     The silver sun of night

     Gave the quiet reply

     To each there is a truth

     For each and every lie

     Waking up from a dream

     That swallows up the hate

     Naked truth blinds my eyes

     And leads the way to faith.

 

                                II.

 

     On the surface

     Below the core

     On my shoulders

     I can hold no more.

 

     I run away

     I climb to heights

     But there is no cure

     For sleepless nights.

 

     But then my love

     She calls me close

     To breathe her air

     To take a dose.

 

     She's my drug

     And I'm her addiction

     There is no cure

     Only constriction.

 

     We strive to get closer

     To the high we cannot keep

     We swallow the love

     And dive for the deep.

 

     Where is my lover?

     Where is my friend?

     She's gone with another

     And this is the end.

     -D
