Spoken

I speak though I know not what I say
My mind rambles erratically from day to day
If I stop to listen I just might fade away
Into the darkness I now have made today

I struggle to free myself
when night runs into day
the life you choose to live
will continue on through play

The world is a mess
People put you to the test
your mind is all you have
I struggle with this hast

people scream and cry
their visions pierce into my eyes
the day at which I begin to fall
because I cant just stand tall

My nightmares cast an imprint
while my lips are speaking incoherent
Can you hear it?
Cause' I know not what I say


I speak though I can't be heard
my mind is like a raging bird
flapping urgently
I need to break away

I am bewildered by this maze
a way to which I know I made
Only I can see the way
To which my madness clearly paved

I slip back into the night
For this is where I begin my flight
My mind is flowing tragically
It just may be the death of me

I speak though I know not what I say
For someone shall remember me

Eternal Ghost they shy away
So demons can begin to prey
The daylight fades and darkness heads this way
while my mind begins its tragic play

I open up so you can see
The horror that infuriates me
The things that I see and hear
Penetrate my mind, too clear

I speak though I can't be heard
because the mind can bend and break
outside these limits
I cant risk to take

I speak though I know not what I say
