Comeback
Staring off into space
Emotionless tears coming down
How come the dead die young
And the sinners live forever?
It pains me to hate the anger
That fills the spaces of your mind
And to question the answers
To problems thought unconquerable
Broke from society in a nasty way
Nursing a wound spewing mist
It’s making things more clearer
But I’m losing feeling in my body
Dreaming a little dream of lights
Violent and beautiful all in one
Purging the dark like it’s diseased
And taking over the night
Loving all of this empty space
Sleeping until three in the afternoon
And waking to see it’s all the same
How much more can I take of this?
Until I fall down from numbness
I’ll keep on dragging my legs on
Daydreaming about the old days
When darkness hid my faults
Racing my shadow down barren streets
The witching hour was a joyous one
Now it’s haunted and unsacred
By my ghost wishing to cross over
Just promise it’ll all be over soon
And you’ll come my way again
Then I’ll make a comeback to the world
If not, it was lost to me a lifetime ago
