I hide in the darkness
he hides in the light
and in between we meet
take over my mind
my heart, my thoughts
invade me
I can not
will not fight
I no longer see
guilt turned inside out
I scream out for the sandman
to bring eternal sleep
self-sacrificed to the gods
the way it’s got to be
the voices of one thousand maniacs
creep inside my head
echoing the warnings
of mistakes already made
but I fear I cannot be salvaged
until I awake
