Fallen



Somehow when I sleep at night

I had the feeling death would come tonight

This is not true to my story

I'm warning you its very gory



I once had a dream that I had fallen

Someone from above was callin'

A hand had stretched before me

But I had let go you see

For the man before my face

Was someone that I chose to erase

He still haunts me in my dreams

Perhaps to give me different means

To the unfinished story he left behind

Or to point to the event to rewind

I do not know why he came

Right back into the haunting frame

He placed misery and shame

Back into the little dame

Somehow no matter how hard I try

When I see him I cry

When I hear him I die

I always wanted to say goodbye

I want him to go away

But that damn feeling will always stay

He was here and now he's gone

Just like the moon from dusk to dawn

The memory haunts me that it was him

Trying to catch me from the perlious swim

I could see him telling me not to die

But my soul just kept asking why

I had fallen into deep water

I was drowning and didn't bother

To save myself from what I had done

From trying to be better than someone

He was there looking sadly at me

I remember that look from my last leave

That face I haven't seen it in years

But when I think of it, there are my fears

The insecurity washes over me like a wave

I try not to think and try to be brave

I know I'll get through this and he'll go away

Then there will be nothing left for us to say

He will leave and I'll be forgotten

Then I will be able to die in peace

The book will close after its final crease

My resting place unknown to me

The place where I will be free



It is then that I awake

To check my pulse and seal my fate

This is not the date

For my own sake

That death will not take me
