Far From Home

Silence, again, as I look at all this strife,

Searching for friends but they’re all busy with their lives.

So hollow I feel, so cold and all alone,

No place is home, I know this madness is my own.

I search for a scream but all that comes out is a gasp,

Its getting hard to breathe as if this breath could be my last.



I close my eyes and drift away,

Think about my life to find out where I went astray.

I feel so dead, though life remains,

Substances and smiles only help me mask the pain.



This life has left my mind so very jaded,

It fades slowly as I help it to get faded.

Somewhere down the line I lost a part of me,

Wont dare look for myself, afraid of what I’ll see.

Afraid to realize there’s nothing there to find,

Nothing in my Heart, no Soul, no Love to leave behind.



I close my eyes and fly away,

Escape this life and run to my bitter disarray.

I feel alive, yet cold as Ice,

Will Loneliness take me before I can change my life?



Silence, again, as I look up to the Stars,

And scream as if they’ll hear me though I am so far.

So hollow I feel, please tell me what I’ve done,

To feel like a lost ghost is all I have become.

Help me find a reason, I don’t think I can,

Help me be somebody that I Love and understand.



I close my eyes and feel the pain,

Wont somebody try and help me cast it all away?

Cause I cant do it on my own,

I’m faded, jaded, dead inside,

far away from home.
