Numb body blank emotion Senses dulled feelings frayed Life chord severed torn betrayed Now born avoid Ive never known Blank stiff stare Focus on nothing The blur between my severed mind Can you feel my voids in yours Can you feel my rage below Deeper down I push the pain Could not foresee the final blow Tightening knot clenched innards The numbness ebbs and fades An anger burns Ripped from within me bled dry Drain exit complete Escape the emptiness Mindless motions of each day Here in the after Nothing feels the same What was to burn What flared then broke Beneath the strain And to the past I steer my mind And sink into my thoughts For here I see you clearest As the present blurs And slips from vision But as each day fades to the next Your place in my mind deepens I resist, tighten my loossened grip And feel the void consume Feel the cruel fade of time Image sinking, open wound Smothered flame once burned To ash descend, lifeline to end So cold
