Lullaby

I've awaken in a state of urgency

My body is burying itself beneathe me

Broken lullaby as the tears roll on down

I feel as though my mind is beginning to drown.



Submerging myself within this misery

I pray to God my death comes quickly

Show me some mercy, I've asked a time too many

But maybe I should try asking you a little more nicely.



These bruises never seem to subside

As I sit and listen to this broken lullaby

About a life I thought I once wanted

and in the process, my entire being is forgotten.



Who am I? Is this who I've truely become?

I can't right all of the wrong's I have done.

These shattered wings left me with swollen scars

and I feel as though I've drifted a little too far.



My world is breaking and I can't stand straight

I've lost myself to the world as my mind decays

A distant lullaby continues to haunt me;

I've forgotten myself, I've given up everything.
