Raise you hand for one last strike please
Feelings wash
Over heavy eyes
Anxiety creeps
Silently
And drags you out of sleep
Before you’re ready
And dreams scare more
Than the monsters of this world
They hurt harder
Than all the pain in the world
Because they stay with you
And they sleep with you
Letting the monsters sleep with you
All the while anxiety is raping you
Pulling you out of sleep
Denying your right to scream
As you sleep silently
In your dreams you bleed
Please stop, stop it hurting me
Dreading thought, suffocates
Through pounding hearts
Fear races
Piercingly
Ripping you out of sleep
Before I’m ready
These nightmares hurt more
Than the monsters in my world
They cut deeper
Then my hand could at all
Because it stays with you
And it sleeps with you
I let these monsters sleep with me
Being raped by anxiety
Denying me of sleep
Oh please let me scream
There is no innocent silence anymore
Everyone bleeds in all my dreams
I let it hurt, let it hurt me
Monsters under covers
Raise you hand for one last strike please
And bleed this heart dry
This pain is all mine
It’s all mine
Monsters under covers
Raise you hand for one last strike please
And bleed this heart dry
This pain is all mine
It’s all mine
