Heavy

All the ghosts say goodnight
The demons come out to play
Turn out the lights
Wait for what the voices have to say

Hit the tip of insanity
Sinking faster each day
Losing sight of reality
Spinning words and no cards left to play

What if it's not what we overcome
It's only how we become numb?

All the hopes and dreams
Bound in pages meant like a prayer
Penance and apologies
To one who was never there

Wretched smiles and empty condolences
Cracked frames imprison the memories
Of long forgotten faces and broken promises
Another night in the arms of tragedy

What if it's not what we overcome
It's only how we become numb?

What a mind to carry
A crown of the weary

Why is everything so heavy?
