LIVING IN THE PARALLELS

The warmth of my pain
Is smothered by darkness
Emerging in the parallels
Of my life

The light at the end of the tunnel
The greenness on the other side
Valedictorian
One hundred percent
Was given this time

I want to go
Somewhere less dangerous than here
I am so weak
I won’t make it alone
I need your help

Take me out , put you in
Pushing and pulling
Again and again

I can’t be your sacrifice
Don’t kill me as you plan
Try for once to be a man
And pick me up
Take me out of this prison

This darkness in which I rest
Used to be so dry and cold
I have laced it with tears
Dampened the walls
And burned the pain

Into the fire I creep
I run
Let go
I won’t live like this anymore

Running through the catacombs
Stretching out
The walls closing in
Departure
Don’t leave me here

The wall of spikes
Incapable now to reach

My pain is rising
The adrenaline I need
I cannot afford
Anymore

Free the beast
And come clean
Forgive and forget
Today

Open the casket
Place yourself among the bed of roses
Dig, rush, fly

Loosen the grudge
Pull the plug
Empty my being
From this insanity
Release the blood
Release the fear
In me

I cannot see through the fog
This blanket of darkness
I’m withering
No longer am I strong

It’s about to close
I’m captivated

Deliberately
You try to see through
The way it used to be

It’s over now
Time stands still
The clock won’t strike
Until you have made your kill

Look at me
What am I to you?
Is it that easy to just destroy me?
Have you not a soul at all?

Seeing and hearing
I taste this pain
In the parallels of my life
In the dampness of this hole
In the catacombs of what’s never to be
I am damned to never be rescued
From your heart
