Desperate

Feeling lonelier than ever before
I need you more than ever but
You are no where to be found
I cry your name but no reply

Slipping into madness as my hands begin to shake
Blurring vision from the harsh tears that burn my eyes
Abandoned and left to be with myself again
With no one to help me and no one to stop me

My insides twist as the darkness tries to draw me in
Giving me thoughts that warp what I want to know
Slaying the hope that I try desperately to hang on to
Ripping away the image of your face I long to see

I lift my hand as darkness takes its hold of me
Spinning me around and numbing all of the pain
Blinding my visions of reality and showing me euphoria
Making me believe what I see is true

Save me, as i waltz through this darkness
This feeling isn't right and I can't bring myself to let go
Faster I fall as the voices get louder crying for you
Please hear my cry as the impending darkness starts to close in

The temptation of relief drills its way inside of my head
Soothing and so wanting a world of my own
Reaching and praying for something substantial
Instead I grab darkness and it drags me down

Im sorry, I tried to reach out for you
Pleaded for your presence and cried for your grasp
Your soothing voice and calming embrace, but I failed
The claws are heavy and hold me tight, bound, trapped
