Doorways Of Madness

the game that I play
dances in dark corners
spying on myself to see
if I'm still here

hallucinations of holocaust
seen through the crack in my doorway
is it me or my mind
that has got so diseased

retracing my steps through
the painful reminders
I stick and I stab
I drink to absorb

all the visions of grandeur
and self mutilations
I hide in my closet
so I feel reborn

the reminder or arrogance
ghosts in the hallway
the past is long gone
but the nightmare remains

to torment good fortune
a misshaped adventure
my soul wants to fly
but my wings are enchained

lives twisted journey
on the highway named redemption
a long ride on a short road
I'm truly alone

god please release me
from all of this madness
your son has become tired
please let him come home
