Haunting

I'm sick of crying out into an empty sea of silence

I can't seem to find a way to stop the hurting stop the violence

Is this the price I pay to save the lives of those closest to me

I can't find a way out of this hole that constantly consumes me

I just want to protect you from all the demons that elude me

To stop myself from crying at the thought of always always losing

Running from the nightmare of your name that always still exhumes me

Bleeding from the heart alone in the dark life is so confusing

I can't find a way to stop this change and those I love from leaving

Talking to myself and writing hollow words with hollow meanings

Looking for a way to forget the names of those who stopped believing
