Ghosts Of The Past

Time lost its meaning, minutes became hours
Days became years, when life became a lie.

I was about to break when razors cut through flesh
Lights in the bathroom did flicker
I never thought you would wait
Somehow got caught by your mesh that became my anchor
Never got to know something like this before
A sphere of surreal concealment
Fear is rising up that I can't restore
My soul if I destroy my dreamland.

You have freed me from my jail
Imprisoned in my inner self
Freed me from the chains that held me for ages
You locked away the demons
Hunted down what haunted me
Chased away the ghosts of my past.

I fell deep into an ocean of pain
Unable to swim nor move, drowning, drowning.

Frail fingers are trying to catch me
Trying to pull me down to their grave
The marshes of sorrow they want me to stay
Want me to wither in morbidity
As long as I breathe I will try to escape
Don't want to return for evermore
No more decay, no more devastation
Just you and me
I won't stop now.
