A Silhouette...

I fell back, broke apart and was left mostly damaged.
A fragile piece that can't be restored.
The value of living is threatened before I'm driven insane.
Chaotic minds are unpredictable.
The sound of glass cracking is something I can't get used to.
How much can I take before breaking?
If I don't know what I'm doing does that make me so dangerous?
It's the one thing I'm certain of.
 
The shroud is removed and I'm reborn again.
However it isn't how I pictured it.
Should I turn around from here?
There isn't any direction I can go to escape you.
 
You forever belong to me.
This life was never yours.
You forever belong to me.
Every single stitch holds together a memory of mine.
 
I wrestle my demons and quickly realize I'm losing.
It's the voices I can't stand.
Resorted in becoming a hollow husk of humanity.
Eventually hating my reflection.
The destruction has become so irreversible from this point.
I can't picture a normal life anymore.
If I don't know what I'm doing does that make me so dangerous?  
it's the fantasy I believe in.
 
I step beyond the line to find my doppelganger.
His twisted smile remains within my mind.
A metallic taste lingers on the tip of my tongue.
Drowning in vomit without even realizing.  
I close my eyes you're always there, I close my eyes you're always there.
I close my eyes you're always there, I close my eyes you're forever there.
 
You forever belong to me.
This life was never yours.
You forever belong to me.
Every single stitch holds together a memory of mine.
 
The shroud is removed and I'm reborn again.
However it isn't how I pictured it.
Should I turn around from here?
There isn't any direction I can go to escape you.
 
This life was never yours.
 
By the time I'm ready to accept what I've lost
you turn around and take what you've left behind.
 
The cold is no longer bitter but a comfort to me.
Rasping breath, this too has gotten harder to catch.
Has death decided to take advantage of the moment tonight?
 
A silhouette assimilated into shadow...
