I used to dream of death
Those dreams where the best I ever had
An escape from the pain
An escape from this life
An escape from the gap in my mind
A gap that is thick and sharp like a knife
Then there was apathy
The numbness from the inside out
I drifted from here to there
There were no feelings and no doubt
Now all I do is deflect
Deflect the obstacles that continue to come
When I think I am finished with one
I realize I will never be done
I guess this is just the way life is meant to be
A constant battle
A constant fight to be free
