WASHED AWAY
My eyes are burning like my nightmares
Wide open with a thousand different fears
With every blink there’s another reason
Why I can’t see through my tears
Every crack that’s coiled around my heart
Is slowly tearing me to pieces inside
Just like your voice, that echoes in my thoughts
I’m dying alone, with nothing left but pride
My smile fades, along with my dreams
Sinking to the very last mouthful of my can
Disappearing with my last painful gulp
I’ve been washed away, like the goldest grain of sand
I cry, just to remind myself that I still have emotions
Sometimes it feels like I’ve cried down to the bone
I hate the hurt, the pain, the tears on my cheeks
But most of all, I hate having to face it all alone
