Dance With Death

Will my words ever convey The depths of these emotions If you wanna find my heart Look at the bottom of the ocean Emptiness grabs ahold of me A longing feeling to just feel anything Autopilot is an understatement I'm just drifting with the wind Just like a waltz These thoughts danced in my head Self-fulfilling prophecies Leading me closer to death Taunting the void with the end as my wish I held onto a noose To keep from falling in The darkness sways effervescently Overtaken by these memories When will things change Will I get better I bite my tongue To block out the pain Contemplating The worth of my footprints Against the consequence Of letting it all End here I feel so alone I feel so alone Just like a day dream More like a nightmare consuming me Everyday I can feel it Ticking on the edge of my skull Just like a waltz These thoughts danced in my head Self-fulfilling prophecies Leading me closer to death Taunting the void with the end as my wish I held onto a noose To keep from falling in Somewhere Beyond this pain Blurry visions still remain Of a time Before Today Maybe It'll get better One day I can't remain This way I can not persist With the burdens of my past Gripping Around My neck
