Headphones

Headphones in my ears
Cant stand the sound
Of the flow of my tears
Splash as they hit ground
 
So filled with hate
I’ve become so weak
Let the world create
A creature so meek
 
Lost hold of hope
My last string of sanity
Not sure how to cope
With my inhumanity
 
Cant stand to be helpless
Not knowing what to do
It all seems so useless
When no words ring true
 
Headphones in my ears
Drown out the world
Hide my greatest fears
Before they come unfurled
 
Bottle up emotions
Just waiting to explode
Going through the motions
On this empty road
 
Been left alone
By the last who cared
Fallen in the lost zone
Without the love we shared
 
Headphones in my ears
The world falls away
I’m consumed by my fears
No longer seeing light of day
 
When there’s no one
Here to save me
No reason to run
No one to set me free
 
I no longer wish to wake
Let me slumber forever
And the demons take
My soul on an endeavor.
