I always felt like I was in a deep slumber and all of this was just a dream

When will I wake up?

Who says this is what life had to offer us?

Delusional by our greed and lust

Our hearts turn cold

I hear a voice calling out to me saying

 “Wake up”

I look around me and no one’s there

So deep inside my shell, I can’t even breathe anymore

Its suffocating

 Please send help

It goes dark

A voice whispers

“Wake up”

My eyes slowly open and I see the truth

I scream in agony

Feels like a thousand ants crawling in and out of me

The reality of the truth eats me alive

They make a mess of me

My body to ruin

I smell burnt flesh and I feel sick to my stomach

I am nothing

That ‘Reality’ was nothing but a sham

The world I made up to protect myself from the truth

They are calling out my name but their voices get lost in the thousands of cries of the underworld

The dead cry out in agony

But the world continues to spin

 Hear the dead cry out to their loved ones

Don’t you feel their pain?

Sadness fills up my heart

Their poor attempt to reach out to me fails

I see through them

They soon get cut off by my darkness

I can’t accept their half-assed sincerity

Why is there no one genuine?

That dream world was just a test

But the real game begins here

Trusting no one but myself

Who can really save me?
