I hear the tick
Of each moment in time
It comforts me
I know that with each tick I come closer to my end
I can’t wait for that last tick
Tick tock

I have moments of peace
They do not last long
Then I feel the pain
As I try to sing along
Sometimes words may help me
Sometimes they do not
All I know for sure
Is peace is all I have ever sought
No matter how much I have cried
No matter how much I have fought
I have yet to find it
Maybe someday I will
Maybe someday the earth will stay still
Just maybe I will find the one
To make me feel safe from it all
To protect me from harm
Maybe he will grab my hand
Before I hit the ground
At this moment I have no hope
All I do today is
Find the strength to go on
Find the strength to cope
This loneliness will stay
It must be my eternal debt to pay
I guess I just have to except it
This is just the way it is
I have lost all hope
That someday I will truly be his

At this moment all I yearn for is death
All I yearn for is peace
Peace from the darkness that haunts me
Peace from the pain
What I would not give for eternal rest
To not wake up tomorrow
To not have to pretend
To just say good bye to yesterday
And cease to exist today
All I do is float past you
In this shadow of forgotten dreams
Where cob webs have formed
And cracks run through the floor
The only thing that is solid is the tomb
This slab of concrete before me
Closing me in the dark
The air is pushed out of me
As the darkness blows out the light
At this moment my will is gone
Today I submit to my friend Darkness
He has come for me
I let him take my hand as we descend
Further away from the light
Darkness is my only friend tonight

I feel my body weighed down
It is so hard to walk
It is so hard to breathe
This weight it crushes me
Weighs me down from the outside in
At this moment I feel nothing
I am just pushed down by it all
Gulping for air
With no cry for help
No way to swim
No way to shout
This is when I give in
Sometimes I wonder if I am being tested
To see just how much I can take
Sometimes I just do not understand
Why I never seem to land
It is just a constant free fall
Never ending emptiness
My feet never find the ground
All I feel is everything pushing me down
What I would not give for some sand
What I would not give for someone to take my hand
Take away the burden
Grab me from the sky
Place me down and give me a place to lie
Maybe someday I will find a way
To grab a hand to hold
To really trust in someone else completely
That day is not today
Nyx
The sky is clear today
But the blue fades into grey
I sit here and I think about all the things that I would say
Would I be angry
Would I be sad
Would I say anything at all
You left me when I needed you the most
You let me fall
Nyx

When the floor beneath my feet crumbles and gives way
When I feel the walls close in around me
When I feel the water rising above my head
When the people around me astound me
When time almost stands still
When I feel myself slip
When I feel myself fall
I look up to the moon and make myself forget it all
