After Therapy

I Endure

After Therapy


life-a broken dream-abysmal path that's far too much to tolerate 
it set me up and took me down 
annulled a joy I could not consummate 
is it my responsibility to choke back tears while others show their pain 
even though each night within my dreams 
visions come that drive my mind insane 

enemies that I can see-in my bed-sleep next to me 
say goodbye to the best of my life as I endure the horror alone 

life-a promise gone-behind a mask-it hides and waits my final gasp 
opened wounds from closing minds 
seek to crush me dead within their grasp 
and is it not an act of blasphemy to wear a smile when inside I just cry 
knowing that each night deep in my dreams 
I'll search for ways to just fall down and die 

enemies I cannot see-sneak behind to torture me 
say hello to the worst of my life as I endure the horror alone 

life-ending now-I won't go back-I see what I must do 
resurrect me someday 
a better chance if life can start anew 
for I don't see a possibility to end this low and come back from the fall 
certainly this night I will not dream 
tomorrow I will not wake up at all 

enemies can smile and see-that they have defeated me 
say goodbye at the end of my life as I endure the horror no more
