Requiem for a Dream (cover)

There are things that I don’t know
Things that you refuse to show
I can tell there’s more to see
But as it seems your world’s beyond me.

Come, my friend, do not lie.
There’s no need to shy from our eyes.
Reason comes not before our love.
Our hearts say you shall not be judged.
Remorse, regret or repent?
Remember everything you said.
Stay down secure in your hole
Rejecting the loss in your soul.

Delay and fear the ghosts of shame.
Don’t wait or you will
Become the one to blame.

Dreams and day will hold no ground
When your world comes falling down.
Proclaim that you will not pretend.
Don’t let this life repeat again.
Doubt comes creeping through the skin,
Draws you out and removes the sin.
One small picture tells quite the tail.
Pursuing lies will make you frail.

Waking up leaves you deranged.
Please contain your will
To go insane.
Please don’t change.


Hands on your head and kiss the earth.
Silent pleas can’t be reversed.
The lines will blur between love and hate,
And all your fears will be erased
Retreating will only poison you
You must press on to be renewed.
Lose hope and you will not ascend.
Don’t back down when you’ve reached the end.


Tempting “gods” are left below.
We refuse to let you
Become undone

Welcome back home.

Beyond Me

Hello there dear old friend.
Tell me where you’ve been hiding.
Did your world come to an end
After all your lying?

Your lying

Did your eyes illuminate?
Was it all you dreamed it would be?
Did a part of you separate?
Do you think that you’re truly free?

Are you free?

You retreat defeated
Back inside where you’re needed.
Another chance for solitude 
In an anechoic shell.
So kiss away your distant dreams 
And slowly drift away from Hell.

Do you think you can disappear?
Live with your thoughts somewhere else?
Leave those that can lend an ear
And run away with yourself?

You’re by yourself

Do you think that I’m like you;
Self-repressed with all of your shame?
Do you think I’m that kind of fool
WHo really believes we’re the same?

We’re not the same.

When silence feels so vile
Your voice screams through cracked smiles.
This is not some parasite
You drug or will away.
So scratch through the dirt and pearls
Until you see that there’s no other way.

You’re reason grows more pale
With each breath you exhale
Listen now, your time is up,
You’re no longer a child.
So step out from the shadows now,
You’ve lost all your pathetic guile.
Don’t you dare give me that look,
It’s not that hard to see.
So step down off your cloud.
We’re all waiting on the ground.
Say it to me here and now,
That you’re just a coward like me.

You’re just like me.


Hiding From The World

No more pretending
No more defending
Hands stop shaking
No more surrendering

No more panicking
No more questioning
Sins stop circling
No more destroying

No more stalling
No more falling
I’m done remembering
No more suffering

No more anything
