Dead End Existence

Written By Glenn McCrary & Makita McLennan My life is empty time keeps slipping away like sand grains in an hourglass day by day I slowly fade As I’m fading into the background no one seems to hear the silent but painful sound of my impenetrable fear With each shard of glass my confidence slowly breaks tell me is this a nightmare or am I awake? I’m freezing to death in glaciers of isolation far too past the point of complete restoration With misery overwhelming me I’m forever searching in a field of keys trying to find one to open the lock smashing mirrors of a thousand me's Indefinitely I am broken don’t know if I’ll ever be whole try to comfort me if you dare but I can’t be consoled Sleeping with my eyes open I see my fears come true confusion straining my brain I'm truely going insane No matter where I go my shadow is all that follows reality has always been a bitter pill to swallow I thought that I could handle it now I'm trying to escape but I can’t run from it for it’s a mental rape Trying to find a map to my current quest searching does no good I feel like I need rest In your eyes I'm no good you constantly seek better exactly what is it that you want an apology letter From within my heart and soul I begged for you to stay without another word you ignored me and just up and walked away You made me look like a fool even though you knew it was cruel you led me on what's the point of this duel? If you had nothing to lose would you risk it all? apparently you would and quite frankly I’m appalled We’ve fought for the hundredth time and afterwards we fell we act like everything is fine when really we’re going through hell Losing track of all days wishing goodbyes were hellos not sure where I’ll end up so goodbye pleasant fellow By Glenn McCrary & Makita McLennan © 2010 Glenn McCrary & Makita McLennan (All rights reserved)
