Drown Me

Stumbling through
A twisting maze
Struggling to see through this haze
I know around I go
Fleeing from an unknown bind
Through twists and turns
I look behind in doubt
Can't live without
Slipping off the edge
Leaning from the ledge
Of what is taunting me
My mind
Feels like an open book
The mystery ending
That took you away
Now I pay
Adrift upon a shoreless sea
Of fear that's slowly
Strangling me inside
I can't hide
How can I see?
How can I clear my view
When these visions haunt me
Like a twisted dream?
Afloat but barely gaining ground
My soul is shattered
My heart rebound and frayed
Feeling betrayed
A cage that's locked
Can't find the key
It's feeding my insanity inside
This raging tide
Floating through a dream
A nightmare as it seems
And still it's haunting me
There must be an end
And yet I play pretend
Inside my fantasy
How can I breathe?
How can I reach the shore
When the waves are climbing
High above my head?
The water's circling
Around me now
And these waves that surround me
Are the waves that will drown me
Should I? Could I take the fall?
Should I? Could I?
I will believe that there's hope
I can learn to change my destiny
