In these moments

I breathe in this moment to taste my reflection and excrete this illusion

Looking for some kind of peace inside of you, but finding no resolve

Reaching into the darkness to find a cure for this delusion

Pulling back self-loathing, apathy, and dependency

This no longer comforts me

 

And it’s in these moments of solitude

That I tend to lose my nerve

Forgive the emptiness I exude

 

However distant it may be, I can still feel you pulling me closer

Every time I close my eyes I can see you chasing me

I am getting so weak I may just fall over

I can see in your eyes you’re practicing erasing me

So much easier than facing me

 

And it’s in these moments of solitude

That I tend to lose my nerve

Forgive the emptiness I exude

 

Hiding amongst the thieves and liars

Begging and pleading for a fix

Hiding from you all of my dark desires

No one left to relate to in my conflicts

 

Lonely and cold until my time expires
