A Picture In The Dark

Drenched in anxiety, dressed in uncertainty
Lights are gone, clouds are gathering
A blurred scenery for such a weary mind.

The burden of my thoughts
Slowly places a veil before my eyes.

The still waters of yesterday
Have turned into a raging ocean inside my mind.

How many times have you painted a picture in the dark
Alone, isolated, just haunted by the ghosts of your fears.

Reason starts to fade giving way to hate
Free from its cage it hunts down my sanity.

Altered visions of a bleak future
They show dark reflections, they laugh at your mind.

The poison is flowing
It's quickly filling up every single vein.

Madness grabbing you by the neck
She'll lead you to dark woods… where nothing breathes.

How many times have you painted a picture in the dark
Alone, isolated, just haunted by the ghosts of your fears.

Should I step out into the rain to find myself
Should I risk what I value most? Should I play?

It's cold in here
I need to remember.

Silence, embrace me now
Mazes it's all I see
Silence, become my guide
Show me the way back to life.
