Echoes

For many nights the world seemed colder

Far past the edge my center frayed

There are no even tides

No predicting shattered minds

The years leave only shattered lines and secrets lives betrayed

Time wont, save me

It echoes through my mind

Screaming…

I am not like you

Pretending I’m okay while as the echoes of my past surround me

We are not alone

We are echoes of a dream, while so many others live a nightmare…

And every time my days seemed brighter

My hopes were dashed and washed away

There are no even tides

Even dreams may be denied

The years are never promised by the sacrifices made…

Time wont, save me

It echoes through my mind

Screaming…

I am not like you

Pretending I’m okay while as the echoes of my past surround me

We are not alone

We are echoes of a dream, while so many others live a nightmare…

We can’t stop

We can’t stop the ticking hands of time

We can’t stop

We cannot stop the consequences of our crimes

Time wont, save me

It echoes through my mind

Screaming…

I am not like you

Pretending I’m okay while as the echoes of my past surround me

We are not alone

We are echoes of a dream, while so many others live a nightmare…
